    The BattleForge RP Signup!

    in Off-Topic

    Posted

    @Eddio Your characters and their abilities are very fitting to the lore and nicely balanced, way to go and well accepted! Looking forward to seeing some storyline with those two! Also nice knowing you read up on stuff ^^

    @anonyme0273 Nice character, strong but very well acceptable abilities. Do remember that calculations in fighting are very simplified and your mathematical formulas will not be that influential or judged on balance. I assume you simply take into account that depending on the region as well as the time spent channelling, your shields take a certain time to build up and break down. I also assume that enemies are generally just more vulnerable in your ice axe swing area (rather than taking a percentage more damage) and allow you to create stronger shields for a brief amount of time, that likely being a single shield. As for your final ability, I will just assume that that powers your shield generating powers up and grants you "CC" immunity, at the cost of them being weaker than normal for a while after your rage and slow you down. If this is okay with you that I see it this way, you too are accepted :)

    @5MERTN1K I don't think I can class you as having all factions. Your abilities are too many and way too strong, especially creating everything from nothing and destroying from the planet. This isn't a sci-fi RP and your character seems barely BattleForge-related. There's a lot of stuff about galaxies and other planets which will really not have a lot to do with the story or setting. There has to be a lot that needs to be fixed about your character, I'm sorry.

    @Lukegriffin02 looks good to me. Your abilities seem well balanced and your character seems solid. Size of a castle seems huge, but reasonable for BattleForge standards I suppose. You're accepted.

    The RP as well as this signup list has been cleaned up to only contain the people who are still in and who are accepted.

    @Kiwi Nice character, not too complex, abilities are balanced. It's nice to see a not overly complex character, also a female one too! Also nice to see that your character is sane :P You are accepted.

    @Dzodin Despite taking damage whenever you use it, be careful with your cloak. It is a very strong ability, make sure not to overuse it and I consider you as accepted too. 

    @Malzawar Your abilities aren't too strong, which is made up by the immunity to the Twilight Curse. Seriously, that immunity is by far the strongest thing about your character and you should try to use it to your advantage. I hope you can cope with it well. For the rest, you are accepted.

     

    According to the poll I posted, I am still awaiting new character sheets from the following people: 

    @anonyme0273 @Defqon @Lorddaggon @Mrgenki @Ruben @Sensei

    Please post your character sheets whenever you are ready. Those whom I have accepted now are ready to make their first post! Good luck :)

    BattleForge RP Revival Announcement (Elemental Clash)

    in Off-Topic

    Posted

    Greetings Skylords, Skyladies, Skyfolks

    Maybe a few of you remember the BattleForge roleplay that I had going on a while ago, which unfortunately died out a bit due to personal circumstances and people not having enough time. I've been long since attempting to revive this thread, and I therefore think it is a good idea to have a look at who's still in.

    For those who don't know, The Elemental Clash was a thread in which people would participate to create a collaborative story set within the BattleForge universe using BattleForge characters, each with their own abilities, strengths and weaknesses, but with a lot of creative freedom. You can find the threads for signing up and the story so far over here:

    I was originally intending to give the RP a fresh start, but of course some of you have worked hard on a character sheet and several posts already, and I would prefer if those posts don't have to go to waste. Some characters already started intertwining their storylines though. Instead, I propose to do a cleanup of the existing RP topic. In order to set up the story again, I need help from the current and upcoming participants to let me know whether they are still game and up for posting at the very least once per week. 

    So: If you want to join in this collaborative story, or want to participate again in case you were already in, please read the following:

    • Please vote on the poll in this thread whether you are going to participate. Remember that if you are new, you also need to make a character sheet as seen in the signup thread above. If you do not vote on this poll I will consider you as inactive and out of the game.
    • After a short time, I'd say about a week, I will check this poll and keep posts from everyone who has told me to stay in. I will be archiving/hiding posts from everyone who is either out or hasn't responded. I will do the same for existing character sheets!
    • The poll also gives you the possibility to rewrite your existing story if you have an accepted character. In this case, if no ties are made between your and an existing character, I will keep you in the RP but archive all your existing posts, and you can start with a blank slate.
    • If your story has intertwined with another participant who is no longer active, you are allowed to propose a solution to fix your storyline. If you can't, you will have to start over from scratch, too.
    • If you are still here but want to step out of the RP and finish your story, vote for it in the poll and you can give your story a proper ending, thereby keeping your posts intact. If you do not, your posts will be wiped.
    • Once I have cleaned up the threads, every participant who is new and has made a character sheet will be checked for the opportunity to join.
    • Completely new applications are not at risk of being wiped, obviously.
    • Before participating, make sure you have at least time for a post per week
    • I will refer to this thread in the existing RP threads, and will let you all know when it starts. If you want to be sure you're there when it starts, be sure to follow the topic using the button in the right top of the topic.
    • Once the topic has been cleaned up, it would be wise to re-read the RP and your Character Sheet so far to get back into the game.

    I hope many of you are still up for the task of writing for the RP, and hopefully you can all get at least a small post per week in. Let me hear those replies and participation messages, and let's make this story more epic than ever!

    MBTI Personality Test

    in Off-Topic

    Posted

    Greetings Skylords, Skyladies, Skyfolks

    Ever wondered what kind of personality you truly have? In psychology, there's a general 16-category personality model called the Myers-Briggs model (MBTI). It consists of filling in a lot of questions that will determine your personality based on whether you're Introverted/Extraverted, Observant/Intuitive, Thinking/Feeling, and Prospecting/Judging. There's been a lot of research on this over the past few years. I personally did a test on this about 8 years ago, and another about 2 years ago for game audience research and player profiling. I've noticed that this test has become increasingly popular and there's quite a nice and descriptive website, https://www.16personalities.com/free-personality-test, that offers you a free test to see what profile you are. Just wondering what the community is up to personality-wise ;) I am personally expecting a lot of INTP, ENTP and ISTJ kind of people around here, but that's just a wild guess from what I know and remember the community to behave like. You can find all types here: https://www.16personalities.com/personality-types

    Please do not judge people by their MBTI and keep discussions at a level that conforms with the forum rules.

    I'll just go ahead and get you guys up to speed by posting my own results right here. 
    I'm quite clearly classified as INFP-T according to this test. It's funny to see how I've developed my personality across 8 years, as I used to be borderline INTP/INTJ, always sort of in the grey area. My current result, however, seems to be very clear and very expressive about me being INFP by heart. Things like "Never stop dreaming" and "Keep holding on" seem to pop up here, and I think it's pretty accurate of the kind of dwagin I am. Here's my percentage results:


    06f5d3f806d82fcfa351d4490376dc7b.png

    So what's your MBTI? I'm truly curious to see what personalities you all have within this test. It's always fascinating to see what kind of people you all are ;)
    Feel free to post your results below, and discuss stuff :)

    Graphics problems please help.

    To me this doesn't look as much like a general graphics driver problem, more like a DirectX problem. Apparently dxdiag doesn't give you any problems but I'd consider reinstalling your DirectX 12 driver (rather than just your graphics card's driver).

    So what of microtransactions? I'm assuming by this statement you are never going to allow the purchasing of packs a la original Battleforge. Do you believe you will be trying to implement any microtransactions now that it's legal for you to do so?

    The possibility is there, yes. I would certainly help certain players to accelerate their way into a completed game if they deem that necessary. Again, nothing is sure yet but it is an idea that's being discussed. If we do, however, you can be assured that gaining BFP freely will still be way more accessible and gained at a much, much faster pace than ever before, and likely faster than your average F2P business model.

     If the game will have EA logo in it i wont even touch it.

    Rage about EA aside, which I do not encourage, you won't be seeing their logo in it as they don't publish Skylords Reborn and we are not affiliated with them as stated in the main post. What you will see, however, is Phenomic's logo as they developed the original game and we are to credit them for that.
