| Beta 3 is to begin before the end of the month, or Brad will explain why.
Say we're crawling through a dungeon; trash at top, nasty shit below. In EQ the death penalty is mostly linear. You always lose a static amount of exp, have to recover your corpse, but you go through more effort to CR the deeper you are. With VG’s new system, the penalty jumps from cash/recoverable exp loss at shallow levels, to a fully fledged corpse run to the bottom of the dungeon with no chance of recovering exp. From the looks of it, risk increases at a faster rate than in a crawl in EQ. |
