imageA Preview of Valencia's Desert and Sieges

Valencia is the next major content expansion coming to Black Desert Online soon, and in anticipation we spoke to Daum Games about the laundry list of new content, changes, and of course... sieges!

    Sigh, we were told sieges would come out only a month after the NA/EU launch. Yet, here we are months later and it's still getting pushed back. In a game with such an intense burnout with never-ending grinding there needs to be the incentive/enjoyment factor to keep people playing. Even general pvp and gvg encounters aren't enough as they get old, evidence by the declining population (simply look at server channels not getting crowded anymore) and the many guilds departing or falling apart.

    Attempting to launch sieges with the current system in KR was admirable, but a bad idea since it took this long. I'd much rather have unimproved content for several months than none at all. This game has/had so much potential to be more than a "temporary stay for pvpers until CU/Crowfall." Yet, it's not holding up to it thus far.

    The update sounds amazing. I cannot wait.

    Now I need to stop crafting and level a character to 50+!

    I think there was a typo here:

    The smaller of the sieges, called Node Wars, will happen 6 days


    Did you mean every 6 days?

    so does the guy from Daum not know how Purified Water is made or are they changing it to Distilled Water?

    Glad they took the buy order idea so many people wanted. It was one thing I liked about GW2s market system.

    It's the same thing. Distilled water is a method of purifying water, one of many methods. Besides, this is what they called it in KR so no sense in changing if it people already recognize the term.

    They are different items in the game.
    Distilled Water is made via processing by Heating while Purified Water is made via processing by Thinning.

    With the update there will be nodes that let you put workers for the water so you won't have to fill them yourself.

    Thank god for that as it was one bottle at a time.

    I'm sure what ever your playing we feel the same about.

    More and more i keep thinking i need to give this game a second chance and see if it sticks with me
  • loulakiloulaki Member UncommonPosts: 944
    I wish I had time to play this game, already own it but no time to dig in..! My little experience is very good and the new content sounds very promising! I can't understand why people whine about it...

    Finally, did the quest to pop 50 about a week ago. Like you, can't wait for the update, but so much to do and not enough free time to do it. Stockpiling silver in case I don't want to have to try to get my equipment maxed out and just want to buy it - lol

    Did he say that it will be safe to enhance your equipment to +17?

    Pretty much tells me you have not played any game since then.
  • JDis25JDis25 Member RarePosts: 1,353
    Can anyone tell me if +15 Grunil and about 110 AP is enough to solo/small group Valencia Content at level 54/55? That's about where I will be when this launches.
    Now Playing: Bless / Summoners War
    Looking forward to: Crowfall / Lost Ark / Black Desert Mobile

    It would be funny if the sieges actually did last for 6 days.

    I have honestly played or given my best shot at playing every MMORPG that has released or went into open beta since 1997 and this one I played least of all. I'm telling you I bought into all the hype and did my fair share for production by purchasing the $100 buy to play beta pack, but it just sucked.

  • LigiLigi Member UncommonPosts: 119
    Not bad at all for a game released just a couple a months in west. Never had so much fun since Everquest and with siege guild wars coming I guess this game is shaping up really nice.

    All this is fine, but where the hell is our Ninja's and Kinochis?
