Edificações
Edificações within Ashes of Creation offer goods and services as well as player housing, either within nodes or on freeholds.[3]
- Edificações de Base are either default buildings that come with the node, or they are constructed buildings that are initiated by the mayor and built by players.[4][5][6][7][8][9][10]
- Freehold buildings that are placed on freehold plots function as homesteads, artisan and businesses buildings.[11][12][13][3][14]
Node service buildings
Governos de base decidem a localização e os tipos de edificações de base construíveis a serem colocadas nos setores de uma base.[8][9][10]
Essas são edificações que o prefeito pode controlar se serão construídas ou não. Edificações construíveis podem ser escolhidas em um dos espaços de terra que uma base recebe quando evolui. Se escolherem começar a construção de um desses tipos de edificações - uma das quais é o mercado -, receberão certos benefícios de comércio assim como quiosques que os cidadãos podem alugar.[17] – Steven Sharif
Quando os tipos de edificação são determinados, a comunidade precisará angariar recursos para a base (usando caravanas) e se unir para construir as edificações (através de missões e etc).[8]
O governo decide como especializar sua base. Ao fazerem certas escolhas, não poderão fazer outras.[8]
Governos diferentes poderão mudar as edificações em uma base.[8]
E pode ocorrer uma mudança de regime... Se alguém não gostar de terem construído um mercado e quiserem eleger um novo governo no próximo cíclo, eles podem...e aquele mercado poderia ser destruído e algo novo construído em seu lugar.[8]
Parâmetros predefinidos limitam o número de edificações dentro de bases.[9]
Node layout and style
O layout e o estilo de uma Base são determinados por diversos fatores:[22]
- Localização da base.[22]
- Tipo de Base.[22]
- Raça que mais contribuiu para a evolução da Base.[22][23]
- Aparências raciais dos prédios e dos PNJs de uma Base.[24][23]
- Isso se aplica a todas as bases, incluindo bases de castelo.[25]
- O resto é determinado pelo prefeito da base.[22]
Algumas partes são determinadas pela área onde a base está. Outras, pelo tipo da base; certas partes são determinadas pela raça, e o resto é determinado pelo prefeito.[22] – Jeffrey Bard
Todas as bases, sejam elas relacionadas aos castelos ou não, têm influências culturais que são replicadas nas aparências dos prédios e dos PNJs presentes na Base.[25] – Steven Sharif
Existe uma mecânica de atrito que afeta a experiência e influência para impedir que uma única raça domine o mundo inteiro.[26]
Existe um atrito e esse atrito na experiência e influência aumenta de acordo com a performance da raça no mundo. Então se todas as bases forem de Orc, o nível de atrito deles será muito alto para competir com outras raças na hora de estabelecer a cultura de novas bases. Isso acontece pois já são muito influentes e existe uma opinião popular contra eles nas regiões que não influenciam.[26] – Steven Sharif
Racial influences
Cultural influences manifest in many ways, from node and gear aesthetics to NPC languages and lore.[27][28][21]
- Gear appearance of certain armor sets is influenced by the player's race.[27]
- Node layout and style is influenced by the race that contributes the most to that node.[27]
- There is an attrition and that attrition on experience and influence is heightened based on the performance of the race in the world. So if all these nodes are Orc nodes then their attrition rate is very high to compete with the cultural establishment of new nodes because they have more influence in the world and a popular opinion is against them in their outlying regions that they do not have influence in.[26] – Steven Sharif
Destruição de Prédios do Node
Edificações de Base (including player housing) have hit points and can be damaged or destroyed by different systems.[31][32]
- NPC-driven events that are a response to story arcs or node atrophy.[31]
- Cercos de base and node wars.[31]
- Attackers may not be capable of destroying a node during a siege. Instead they may carry out precision attacks to disable specific service-oriented buildings within the node. These buildings can be targeted with siege weapons and bombs.[30]
- Hazardous events such as tornadoes or hurricanes.[33][31]
- Prefeitos have the ability to demolish constructed node buildings. This will have a node mandate cost and will require player buy-in via a vote.[4][34]
- Mayors will also have the ability, if they want, to demolish constructed buildings. So if they if they so choose they can destroy a building if they don't think it's needed anymore. But this will have mandate cost and a player buy-in votes. So we want to make sure that [the] mayor can't just go and blow up the whole node if they're trying to grief or something. So this is very important and impactful decision.[4][34] – John Collins
If building maintenance is not paid, or a building is damaged as the result of an event or siege, the building will enter a state of disarray.[4][34] Any NPCs or services offered by that building will not be available until the building is repaired.[7][32]
- Players must contribute materials to repair disarrayed buildings and restore them to an operational state.[4][34][31][32][35]
If a node siege is successful, or if buildings otherwise take significant damage, they are destroyed and appear as rubble on the plot they occupied.[4][34][31]
- Node governments must clear any rubble on plots before any buildings can be reconstructed. Any prerequisites for the building reconstruction must be satisfied beforehand.[31]
- Buildings also live within a prerequisite system. So in order to build down the tech tree of what these buildings provide, as the node grows larger to access stronger building types, you may get a kink in that chain if it's destroyed and you'll have to stand that back up in order to support the service again.[31] – Steven Sharif
- If the node is destroyed by a node siege, the debris field will contain spoils that are lootable by attackers or defenders.[36][37][38][32][39][40]
- Residência de Jogadores that is destroyed during a node siege can no longer be sold.[41] Furnishing and decorations are retained and can be placed again later.[41][42][43]
List of service buildings
- Default service buildings
- Constructible service buildings
Freehold buildings
Freehold buildings that can be placed on a freehold plot serve three main purposes.[11][12][13][3][14]
Freehold buildings require blueprints and materials to construct.[11][47]
- Sheds are present on empty freehold plots to provide storage for materials needed to construct freehold buildings.[48]
- Some freehold buildings have multiple tiers, with different footprint sizes.[12][49]
- Upgrading a tier will not change the size of the building in terms of footprint, but may increase in height.[49]
- Basements in freehold buildings are to be decided.[50]
Freehold taxes are calculated based on the number of permits issued for buildings on a freehold.[11][51][52][53][54]
- Buildings that require permits will have additional upkeep costs.[11]
Freehold building architecture is based on the blueprint for the building.[12][55]
- Freehold skins are applied to blueprints matching the type of building: housing, artisanship, and business.[11][12][56][57][55][58]
- The freehold building blueprints must be obtained in-game first before the cosmetic can be applied.[55][58][57]
- Players are not locked to the racial appearance of a freehold building blueprint.[59]
- The way we look at it is the freehold is your space so we want you to be able to make it look the way you want it to.[55] – Jeffrey Bard
Freehold building placement
Freehold buildings and other items/props can be placed on freehold plots (by the land owner).[13][61][62][3][14]
- Freehold building permits to allow for a specific number and type of buildings to be placed on the freehold plot must be acquired from the node where the freehold deed was obtained.[11][51][52][53][63][54]
- Freehold taxes are calculated based on the number of permits issued for buildings on a freehold.[11][52][53][54]
- Currently freeholds have a combined maximum total of six artisan and business buildings that can be placed in addition to a homestead.[11][64]
- On a Freehold you can have your house, and up to six additional buildings. The additional buildings can be artisan and/or business buildings. Larger buildings may take up more room, reducing the total number of buildings that can be built on a single Freehold.[11]
- Space that is not used for freehold buildings can be utilized for other purposes, such as livestock and crop placements.[63]
- Players can manipulate the orientation of freehold buildings and items being placed on their freehold plot.[65]
- There may be a grid-based system that freehold owners can use to place items/props and buildings on their freehold plot.[61]
- Targeting dummies are planned as placeable props with functional mechanics.[66]
- Players are not able to adjust the terrain of their freeholds. Sloped terrain will result in stilts beneath placeable structures (to keep them level).[67]
Naming buildings
Edificações will be able to be named. The custom name will appear as floating text when it is targeted.[68]
Freehold building skins
Freehold building skins were offered as Kickstarter and Crowdfunding do verão rewards and were available in pre-order packs.[56][70][71][72][73]
- Freehold building skins can also be achieved in-game.[74]
- Freehold skins can be applied to blueprints matching the type of freehold building: housing, artisanship, and business.[11][74][12][56][57][55][58]
- Cosmetics that we have sold as part of different packs throughout the past- our pre-order system: Those cosmetics are split into three primary categories: housing, artisanship, and business; and we will have a breakdown that we're going to be releasing of the cosmetics that have come previously and which categories they exist in, but players will have the option to override the appearance of a blueprint that exists within one of those categories with an associated cosmetic skin; and that is obviously not just something that can be purchased through the pre-order system, but also can be achieved in-game as well- our cosmetics that can be applied to specific building types. And we don't get as granular where, let's say, you might have a shrine cosmetic, and you have, let's say, a blacksmith building that you wouldn't be able to apply the shrine to the blacksmith building. If the shrine exists in the artisanship lane you can apply it to any artisanship type building, but not to a house or business. so giving a little bit of additional context there.[74] – Steven Sharif
- The vast majority of cosmetic freehold skins apply to homestead buildings.[13]
- A planned feature may allow multiple buildings to be replaced by a single large cosmetic skin.[78]
- Cosmetics that are are very large in size- we will have a system that's not been developed yet, but we've been planning for this: we'll have a system where multiple buildings can be occupied space-wise by the larger cosmetic. So, a cosmetic might replace the visual appearance of one particular building, but then you'll be able to have that footprint occupy multiple buildings to replace the visual appearance. So that way you're still utilizing the similar amount of space.[74] – Steven Sharif
- Baronies won't impose any appearance restrictions on freehold buildings.[79]
Freehold building destruction
Propriedades may be attacked by any player for a period of two hours following a successful siege against its parent node.[80][81][21][82] Freeholds can also be lost by foreclosure for not paying property taxes or other fees.[11]
- Players and their allies may defend their freehold for this period of time.[82]
- Structures and guards may be obtained to defend freeholds during this period.[82]
- When it comes to losing Freeholds like this, one person’s loss is another person’s gain. While there aren’t enough Freeholds in the world for everyone to have one at the same time, this cycle of players losing Freeholds creates opportunities for other players to acquire one.[11]
After the two hour period of open combat following a successful node siege, any remaining freeholds will exist under a grace period for roughly 1 week where another node may take over the zone of influence of the freehold.[81][21]
- The freehold owner will be required to undertake a quest process to have their freehold adopted by a new node if one exists.[81]
- At the end of the grace period, if the freehold does not reside within the ZOI of a
[[{{{2}}}]] (estágio 3) node or above, it will be destroyed.[11][21][81][83]
- If a siege is successful, then the Node is brought down to Level 0, and anyone who was a citizen of that Node is no longer a citizen. Freeholds within the Zone of Influence are subject to a period of vulnerability. These Freeholds can be destroyed by other players during a period of roughly 2 hours after a successful siege. Destroyed Freeholds are subject to material loss, and blueprints for them are mailed to the player to utilize for future placement in order to allow the player to keep their Freehold’s layout and structure. Once the vulnerability period is complete, any remaining Freeholds will exist under a grace period for roughly 1 week where another Node may take over the Zone of Influence of the Freehold.[21] – Margaret Krohn
- Q: How many times a year do you suspect that most players will be moving residence based on nodes being eliminated from sieges?
- A: There are a lot of variables that influence that answer. I'm not sure I can give an average, but what I would say is that depending on the political dynamic of a server: if a server tends to have more combat and/or sieges against nodes, that is going to increase the amount of opportunity for freeholds to be removed from the world and then replaced. I'm not sure I have an average. what I will say is that it is very important to remember that Ashes is not a PvP game and it is not a PvE game. It is a PvX game and that has a very specific meaning. It means that as these systems are developed as they are designed and they are integrated with each other: they are done so from a competitive viewpoint and how that system relates to both PvE and PvP. Freeholds are one of those systems very much so and it's because of the cyclical nature that we're attempting to achieve with the development of nodes and the destruction of nodes, the world is a rapidly and dynamically changing place really. So it's intended to be something that is constantly recycling and is leaking out different types of content and new content that revitalizes the player interest and stimulates new points of conflict or cooperation.[85] – Steven Sharif
