Gloria Victis

Znarf

 Never for any reason PAY for trying Gloria Victis: the so called "developers" not only are developing NOTHING, but after STEALING your money they will not care about you and only make shameless, false promises. Stay away from that shit!

A little evidence would go a long way toward bolstering your claim.

(I have no opinion one way or the other, by the way, you could be %100 correct, but where is your proof?)

I think the complete opposite had the game for 5 days.  This game has me hooked with little content. They just doubled the world size a bit glitchy, not much content. I think this is a game to watch if they get this right. They plan to add sieges and castles its not perfect by far but I think this indie team has something here. I have payed for a lot of alphas I cannot wait to see this game in 6 months. To sum it  up this game is worth a $10 investment to try out.

Paid for access about a month ago and while it only kept me playing for a few hours, I have a good feeling behind these developers because when they announce they will be releasing something soon, they actually do release something. I happened to report a bug on the first day of joining and they patched it up a week later with the first building revision that brought upgradable towns/fortifications. I saw it listed in the notes and nodded my head... that was because of my bug reporting. Haha.

The immediate action they took brought me major confidence in my backing of Gloria Victus, and I would support them beyond if they had a patron. They were good on their word when they said the X2 world was coming out, and now they have intentions to bring guild territory control which is bringing some excitement my way. I'm also excited to see the second building revision which will allow us to build our own castle walls, and an entire town from the ground up.

One of the major bugs which plagues Gloria Victis is an inventory bug, which they are already working on to squash soon. I'm glad I decided to support them, Gloria Victis has some seriously passionate developers that truly care for their backers, and the game itself.

Gloria Victus is just another carrot on a stick npc grinding mmo. You can't compete unless you spend hundreds of hours mindlessly killing npcs, and then once you reach max level it's time to move onto the next game like all themepark linear level grinding games.


Gloria is just another world of warcraft/ archage clone claiming to have skill based combat and sandbox elements when really it is designed to be as linear and shallow as any other themepark mmo.


It may as well have tab targetting since you can't win a fight with anyone that is a higher level than you.

Bought the game over 4 month ago, comparing this Very Early Sandbox to WoW or "LOL" archeage is one of the most stupid things I have read on this forum. For a start there is not a single Quest, why is that ? because its a sandbox. Some people just dont know what a sandbox is or how to play on one. There is Daily challanges yea but there not quests. You know what a Quest is ? Grinding with a purpose/Aim/goal. Theres a Grind in almost every game whether you perceive it like that or not.

That being said, yes there is NPC to kill (thank fuck how boring an empty world would be), Yes its hard to kill "Stronger" players than your self, Do I really need to clarify why its harder to kill higher leveled players?
Maybe if your "for example" lvl 5 and try to kill a lvl 20 you deserve to die...full retard.

But in my experience with the game if you are well prepared, you can beat higher lvl players with in reason, because this game is skill based with action combat movements. Hit boxes and Hit detection are a WIP.

10$ or 7£ in my country, thats a fucking steal if you ask me. The Devs didnt steal my money, I stole there early sandbox game for a measly 7 quid...bargain.
So go ahead and waste a couple hundred dollars on some silly "Founders" package for another cash cow theme park game.

This game is going to be more like Reign of Kings but on a Sandbox MMo Scale, I dont suppose any one looked at there world map. Its not exactly small, I look forward to playing more of this game when its fully complete.

Archeage....ROFL.

Is this post for real or did you put it in the wrong game forum?

I've been following it a little, from the gameplay videos it looks really good, a bit hardcore which I like, You walk out of town and pick a fight with a wolf, the wolf will most likely f**k you up just like in real life, I also like the open world/free roam/no set path/do what you like mentality of it kind of like the elder scrolls. Even though I have vowed never to buy any EA again after being burned, I actually think I'm gonna buy one of the packs to try it.

So why i kill on 1 lvl 100 lvl? Fourtwenty, you never play this game so stop be plastic heater. All new players start play this game and they think they lose because enemy have better lvl, but when this new players get lvl they still lose all fights.. so they think they lose because their enemy have better eq, but when this new players get better eq they still lose... When i want go to take flag and enemy defend this hard i go back to town and i take warband, no matter lvl and gear who have, many time with 7 noobmilicja players(7 low lvl players) we beat 5 top players with plate armours, because this noobmilicja understand all my commands. In this game you dont need lvl to win, it is just helpfull, like body form in real life.

To counter his point. Sure its possible to win a fight, but you are at a big disadvantage. Competitive pvp players don't look to play the game at a disadvantage. The bottom line is if you don't grind your life away you can't compete people with that have, unless you get very lucky or they are scrubs.


Sorry to blow up your guerilla marketing campaign Gloria Dev. You got busted misleading players on your main account and had to make a new one clearly.

[mod edit]

Do you even understand that your stat gains are front loaded in this game? You get your biggest stat gains early on as the stats cost less points. As you get your stats higher they cost more and more points. So a guy who has 10 points to spend at a low level can gain 10 points of whatever stat they want, where someone higher level can only get like 3 stat gains if they have 10 points to spend. Use of diminishing returns like this helps keep the playing field more level between newer people and vets. A new player can be close to what a vet has in stats with very little time spent leveling in comparison to what that vet had to do to gain just a few extra stats at higher levels.

Btw, what exactly did you "bust" the devs on lying about? You simply threw out, once again, random accusations based on absolutely nothing even though it has been explained over and over again just how wrong and narrow minded you are. Nobody, including bartold, ever denied there are levels. You just aren't capable of grasping the fact that just because a game has "levels" doesnt mean the same thing in every game. EVERY game with progression has some form of levels. They may choose to call it something different, or implement it in a slightly different way, but the impact is the same. Your character becomes stronger through progression.

Your precious MO had those same exact levels, only split into individual skills instead of a general number for the entire character. Hell the game requires extensive guides on how to level skills effectively because some of them take MASSIVE amounts of grinding / time in order to get them up and not be at a disadvantage. Not just 1 or 2 skills either, but a wide variety of skills. Much more grind than a game like GV where doing just about anything adds to your overall stats which you can spend however you like instead of grinding hours and hours on a single skill, then another, then another...

And lastly... Equating a game having levels to meaning the same thing as being a tab target game? [mod edit] WoW could eliminate levels, it would still have tab target combat. MO could switch to tab targeting and keep the same skills system. Completely independent systems. Having either 1 does not have anything to do with the other. Having a number next to your character which generalizes your overall power level has absolutely nothing to do with combat style & mechanics.

Sigrand

I won't call the OP a troll or anything like that, though I probably should. All I'll say is that the game had 3 significant updates released within the past 6 weeks or so. So the idea that the devs are "developing NOTHING," at least seems unsubstantiated.

I'm still here. I did not mislead anyone, because the progression system does not prevent the players from winning against the higher levels, so why the hell should I create another account?

Sorry sir, missed shot again.

Wtf.. i create new because i lost my old, and what? you have problem with this im create account yesterday?? i never post on forum anythink because my english always was very poor or i dont have what to say. Now im know some words i this language so im posting because i have great knowledge about this game and everythink what you say about this game is just bad joke. Most people who hate this game cry because got bug and they dont understand it is still pre alfa and they have to wait for repair, like Znaf, he got vision bug in game, in crafting window he see possibility to craft bow but in server he have too low lvl, so he go cry on mmorpg.

Im not promote Gloria, im just ripost your lairs, i can say you good things and bad things too.  I tell, this game is for crafters or pvp players. This game on this stege isnt for impatient kids, inexperienced players(because game is little hardcore), pve players, people who like feudal systems, sailing system, building system or trade system. This will be, but isnt in game yet.

Bad thing it is many bugs and glitches, and i dont know devs will do good system antigriefing.
In my opinion bad is the order of develop, i think they should at frist develop great pvp system, then other things like crafting etc. Another thing what i thing is bad it is inventory. In my opinion we should have many slots in eq and cant wear heavy items (like boars corpse or crafting maths), everything heavy should be weared in cards or horses and deposit in chest in home or bank. Next bad thing, game dont have hight population, so when i start farm midlanders(enemy) they just stop play(or join ismirs) so many time pvp players dont have opposite. Last bad thing, they dont have much developers, so sometime we dont have any information about proggres(especially when they meet unity5 bug what do delay, so they dont have time to write because they have to hard work to fix this bug)

If you think, game have too much bugs to play now, ok this is your opinion (but you never play this) but you cant hate systems what are not finished.. it is like hate renovation in home until finished because is dirty. Yes game have many bugs but you can learn how to live with this. But all bug will be fix... need for patience, they cant repair all time bugs, they have to do proggres in develop game, so they repair just critical bugs and annoying bugs. Most bugs in game is because they want to do unhackable game, everything is counted on server side and just synchronized with client, And this synchronization isnt finished so create other bugs. This will be fix, be patience.

Hello. I've been playing Gloria for about 2 weeks now. 

It is very player skill based, I beat a level 30 in a duel my first day, at a low level you are at a disadvantage, but to get pvp ready you only need level 30 or so, which took me less than a day cuz I figured out how to fight mobs properly.

Higher levels have higher hp and stam, as well as faster hp regen and stam regen, however,  it only takes 2-4 hits to kill ANYONE. 

The AI is a bit buggy, but still good. Uses the same mechanics people would use, blocking, kicking, calling friends. 

The game has a lot of potential, and I think has a good mix of hardcore and care bear, and is definitely a sandbox.

Also to comment on the dev team. One of the best teams I've ever had the pleasure to be in contact with. We contacted them with feedback and within a week things were changed. They are actively seeking user feedback, and are very active working with there community.

Again, I've been playing for 2 weeks, I'm level 58, I definitely can fight a level 100 and handle myself. And I could be higher, if I WANTED to grind. 

Also something really nice about this game, it uses old school rpg mechanics. So if I don't wanna grind crafting, I can go kill mobs for gear. And they just added exp for killing enemy faction, and they are adding exp for helping your faction. That alone means I have OPTIONS to level myself. I can partake of many different parts of the game, and be rewarded.

I already love thE game. Is it ready to play full time? No. 

But it is something to watch. Because it has potential to be a really great game. Updates like crazy right now too.

Yours, 
Revir

The game is worth supporting. The more support the developers recieve, boosts motivation, which pushes the game towards a faster completion. Thought I saw something somewhere on these forums, that the game is going to be free to play when it releases.

So... you could always wait too! *I think* :chuffed:
