The yellow dot!

I am pleased to see we’re worried about dots now. A sign things are going well.

I still think the AI in the big battles needs to become more dynamic. And they could have done better with the facial animations I think (with facecapturing devices/facecams). But other than that, yes, I hope it’s going well.

This is probably the most concerning factor for me overall. Based on what we’ve seen to date, the group battles or melees with multiple opponents has the potential to become extremely confused, congested, rigid and robotic.

I think this was always going to be quite challenging, considering that the combat system was really designed with One-Vs-One dueling in mind. Not sure how well in the final product the One-Vs-Many scenarios are going to play out. AI responsiveness and targeting flexibility could play a major part in that though

Hmm If I recall rightly. the ceo said anything you have seen even in the latest videos has already changed with regards ai and facials.

I honestly would advise not to get bogged down with what it has or has not or what flaws you can notice.

Or when the time comes.the only real disappointment may be you missing out on the simple enjoyment of getting lost in the game.

There’s no good reason not to make it optional. Every hud element should optional, and ideally something like the hud mods for skyrim, where you can choose the circumstances in which they appear.

The idea that every option in a settings menu is a failure is completely absurd.

Yeah, they were able to do something with that, but tbh, it’s already too late for that. We can talk about it till the release, but it’s pointless. Just more easy to left it for modders to do it optional. :face_with_monocle:

Can you please give me the quote of the CEO?

We’re not getting bogged down, we’re simply discussing the topic. I’m a big advocate for managing expectations, so believe me when I say they are tempered (I can appreciate how far this project has come over the last 4 or so years). It is however the point of a forum to question, discuss, converse and share opinion. Otherwise there’s not much point to having threads in the first place…

Simply discussing the topic? of the yellow dot?
Umk.

I may have missed the correlation of the yellow dot and Ai/ facial animations.

My reply was simply to remind the guy sweating about the ai and animations. That footage they watched isn’t finished. using the words of the people actually making it.

omg I can’t wait anymore X) So excited for this!

I mean, I didn’t play the beta, so I don’t know how frequently the yellow dot is needed. But my idea would be to suspend it when it isn’t needed.

By the way, question for the english speakers:
Can I say suspend in this context?

Yea it works. The sentence doesn’t read incorrectly and from a grammatical point of view it’s completely fine… but in this context the meaning could be misinterpreted slightly. Suspend would colloquially be more akin to halt, prevent or postpone, or even to hang / string up something. So it may be read as you’re wanting the dot to be suspended (as in stopped in place)

You’d probably be better off saying “…my idea would be to have the dot fade or vanish when it isn’t needed (required)” :slight_smile:

@Sterling-Archer… Flarius and I had progressed to discussing battle AI. And you responded to me. But thanks for your input

It is missing its strap and the bow seems to be still oddly glued to the model. This besides the missing scabbard suspensions and shield straps are the only left worst model flaws IMHO.

There are some models who actually have scabbard suspension Look at this

Another very bad thing, which was not in the alpha is the arrow flight mark

@warhorse: Please give us an option to shut it off :frowning:
