Gear slots

Alpha-2 鬥士 character sheet UI.

We wanted to create something that would handle a couple of different roles, with obviously your equipment slots for what we call a "paper doll", which is that display of your character. Eventually it won't just be a image of your character, we hope to have the 3D character and be able to rotate around, look at what you're wearing. And then we wanted to support a couple of different features here, with some base stats; the equipment, which will show what equipment you have available to quick swap, so you don't have to have your inventory and the screen open; detailed stats for those people who want to get into all of the details; and then of course gear sets. So this is going to be able to swap to your sets of gear quickly; and being able to save different loadouts. – Colby Marchi

技能欄

此翻译可能已过时

Alpha-1 坦克技能欄的早期介面設計。

玩家可以把想要的主動技能放在技能欄中。

• 可以放在技能欄中的技能數量有限 (少於30)。
• 將有選項添加多個技能欄。
• 例如一個鬥士將會因為選擇了不同主動技能，而與其他鬥士不同。
• 透過選擇不同技能，玩家可以專注於Tab 鍵鎖定技能、動作指向技能或兩者混合，塑造自己的戰鬥體驗。
• 角色升級時不會習得新技能，玩家需要自行選擇想要習得的技能。
• 技能數量不會多得令人措手不及。

There will be multiple hot-bars that you obviously have available, because you're going to have consumables, you're going to have active skills and whatnot. But the number of active skills are not going to overwhelm necessarily the character and be irrelevant especially at certain stages. – Steven Sharif

控制設定

Players will be able to customize their keyboard control scheme.

控制器

The game is not designed around controller support.

Controller support will likely be something we work on closer to launch. – Steven Sharif

鏡頭設定

The developers aim to provide a variety of camera options.

• Camera field-of-view (FoV) is customizable.
• Camera mechanics are similar to ArcheAge (hold mouse buttons to move the camera).
• First-person point-of-view may be able to be achieved by zooming the camera, but the game is fundamentally third-person.

世界地圖

Updated Ashes of Creation map.

The new world map in all its 1,200 square kilometer glory. So you're gonna see some names here- a little bit of a reveal of some of these locations in these areas- and you're also of course seeing similar biomes that are present as well. But more importantly what you are seeing is the orientation of these continents and these islands that are facilitating specific types of inter-continental trade gameplay; and they support the relevance of these caravans moving across the land mass to locations that will now incorporate these harbor areas, which aren't identified on the map here... But the important part was providing a lot of coastal naval gameplay between these zones and trade routes between land base. – Steven Sharif

Alpha-2 work-in-progress map UI.

The world of Verra features an in-game viewable world map. This map is not randomly generated, and begins covered in a fog of war. Players will not be able to see the world until they have explored it or gathered information about it. The world is also full of imperfect information, which will require the player to act on it for verification.

For example, you may hear a rumor in a tavern that tells you the location of a cave full of weak Kobolds, but this was not accurate as the rumor was started by well-equipped bandits in order to waylay overconfident adventurers.

• Information about the world will be presented directly to players through the world map UI as it is gathered.
  • Node tax rates will be visible on the world map by hovering over a node location on the UI.
  • The map UI will potentially incorporate player created location markers that are visible by other party members.
  • Previously, detailed information about the world was only available through the Library unique node building.

• Not every server will share the same map, as player decisions will vary between servers.

• The map will have geographical choke points caused by non-traversable obstacles (such as Mountains).

Even though we're an open-world that doesn't mean that from a design perspective, especially with the way our economic systems work, that we will want to create Geographic choke points. – Steven Sharif

以下某些信息最近尚未得到开发人员的确认，可能不在当前的开发路线图上。

• Zones in Ashes of Creation will cater to all levels.

小地圖

Alpha-2 minimap and compass UI.

There is an in-game minimap and compass user interface in Ashes of Creation.

• The goal is to allow pings and other forms of communication tools via the mini-map.

角色創建

Scars in the Alpha-2 character creator (first pass).

The cool thing about this character creator is that it's not just intended for your character. It has application with NPCs that you might hire. – Steven Sharif

We're gonna use similar tech for implementing things like Animal husbandry. – Zachary Mallet

Kaelar Alpha-2 character creation (first pass).

This tech is 100% created in-house at Intrepid and is not metahuman. – Steven Sharif

We'll be adding many, many more customization options to the character creator. – Cody Peterson

The character creator (or character customization system) allows players to define the look of their in-game characters, hired NPCs; and potentially creatures raised by the animal husbandry profession.

• 角色外表 can be adjusted through a wide range of presets and sliders.
• Character blending provides easy to use customization by morphing together two or more character presets.
• Character sculpting allows detailed customization of every aspect of the body.

The Ashes of Creation character creator is 100% developed in-house by Intrepid Studios and is not MetaHuman.

Additional character creator features include.

• There will be unlockable features for character customization.

You have that scar because you participated in this siege, or these many sieges; or you have this tattoo because of your of a cultural background, or because of a quest that was accomplished where you're able to get that. – Steven Sharif

• The ability to save and potentially to share characters with other players.

The beauty of it is that you can save your character- and we already have some of those features available- and load them; and in the future we want people to be able to share those characters amongst each other. – Margaret Krohn

• The ability to undo changes (Ctrl + Z) will be supported, including undoing changes that were made several edits earlier.
• Choosing base idle animations of characters will be possible in future.
  • Certain animations, such as blinking, will be present when they don't interfere with the customization process.
• Certain ability sound effects will adhere to character customization selections, such as race.
• Adjusting the background scene and lighting is a planned feature.

There's going to be a lot of environmental controls that are offered to the character creator so that people can set it up their scene the way they want to grab screenshots or to grab recordings or whatever they want to do. – Steven Sharif

• Asymmetry in terms of manipulating different components of the body or different body features such as hair, beard, and eyes.

Asymmetry is going to be functionality that's possible in manipulating either different components of the body or different features like hair. The beard we saw a little bit of that blending with highlights that you can do. Margaret talked a little bit about the eye asymmetry that you can include. Obviously those are going to exist within certain parameters that we want to define on a per-race basis, but it is something that we think is cool. – Steven Sharif

• Body adornments, such as piercings will be possible within cultural limits.
• The developers are considering whether to allow custom tattoos to be uploaded by users.

The aim is for the character creator to be on par if not much better than that of BDO.

角色外表

Facial adjustments in the Alpha-2 character creator (first pass).

There is a great variation that's going to be available from a character standpoint when creating your character, especially around the face. Whether it be the shape of the jawline, the cheeks, the ears, the nose, the lips. You know we want to provide a lot of options and an agency to the player to customize their character appearance. – Steven Sharif

Alpha-2 Py'rai female and male character models.

角色外表 can be customized in the character creator (CC) and via in-game salons/barbershops.

We want there to be a lot of room for people to manifest their own identity, to role play how they want to from an appearance standpoint. There's going to be parameters within which you will be able to customize a character. We want the culture and the identity of the races to exist in a range that makes them easily identifiable from other players and other cultures. So, because of that, we have to have a spectrum you can exist on. There will be a lot of hair variants you can do, body art tattoos that you can apply. You'll be able to play with the scales of the facial structure, the bones, the height, width, the body fat percentage. You'll be able to add body hair on different parts of the body. If you want to have hair on your feet, you can dial that up. – Steven Sharif

• 角色 models are focused on realism.
• A player will see a generic character before customization.
• Character designs will have influences from a wide range of cultures, such as European, African and Asian.
• Lolis will not be in the game.
• Sliders and other controls, such as color palettes, will offer flexibility in customization but there will be limits based on race, gender, and the artistic style guidelines that the developers are adhering to.

There's going to be constraints to the sliders, so that was one of those big questions as work began on the character creator: How much agency do you want to allow pulling like the lower lip all the way down in this weird deformed look, or having like [an] offset cheek that's just asymmetrical to the side of the face. There's not going to be the ability or agency to create those types of weird character things. However you will have the ability to move, slide, change, grow, decrease all those components, but they'll be kept in a more reasonable and presented way in the same sense you won't be able to change the appearance of the dwarven, nor the Dünir or the Niküan races to, in my opinion, create what would be traditionally considered a Loli character. – Steven Sharif

角色名字

Characters will have a first-name and an optional surname (last name).

• Character names are unique per server.
  • Character name changes will be possible during server merges.

• There is a minimum length of three for a character name.
• Special characters, including apostrophes and hyphens, are currently not allowed in character names.

Currently we don't allow special characters in character names (including apostrophes and/or hyphens). It's possible this changes in the future. – Ry Schueller

Character names will appear on the character sheet and optionally on the character website page.

• In-game a character's name is displayed above their head. This can be the first or last name.

無障礙設定

There will be settings to aid colorblind players.

Maturity level

Dead bodies in a Pre-alpha raid encounter.

There may be an option to turn off blood and gore in the game.

There probably won't be swearing in quests.

The antagonists in this game are definitely dark... We're not going grimdark at all, but there are parts of it that get that way. – Jeffrey Bard

插件/模組

Addons will not be allowed, in general.

• The developers don't want addons/mods to be necessary to experience the game.
• The developers believe that parsers (DPS meters) can have negative effects.
  • There will be leader boards.
• The design of the game API is still under consideration.

網上角色頁面將於正式上市後緊接推出，展示：

• 角色樣貌。
• 伺服器第一等成就。
• 職業。
• 日誌，選擇與他人分享角色的背景故事。
• 人格特質，描述角色的歷史。

每個角色都將有一個獨自的主頁，玩家將可以隨心所慾設計展示不同資料。這將是遊戲外一個角色扮演的小要素，讓你可以建立角色背景、人格特質之類。 – Steven Sharif

網上角色頁面將能透過遊戲內的瀏覽器介面查閱。

我們對於角色頁面的願望之一是希望能透過遊戲內的瀏覽器打開頁面，讓玩家可以查閱其他角色的日誌，了解他們的背景歷史，而這些都是玩家自行決定與他人分享與否的。從角色扮演的角度來說，我們希望玩家投入沈浸於自己的角色。 – Steven Sharif

玩家可以自行決定在頁面中展示的資料。
