Archief - Crusade MMOG
Het archief is een bevroren moment uit een vorige versie van dit forum, met andere regels en andere bazen. Deze posts weerspiegelen op geen enkele manier onze huidige ideeën, waarden of wereldbeelden en zijn op sommige plaatsen gecensureerd wegens ontoelaatbaar. Veel zijn in een andere tijdsgeest gemaakt, al dan niet ironisch - zoals in het ironische subforum Off-Topic - en zouden op dit moment niet meer gepost (mogen) worden. Toch bieden we dit archief nog graag aan als informatiedatabank en naslagwerk. Lees er hier meer over of start een gesprek met anderen.

Deze MMO klonk nog conceptueel interessant anno 2006, maar is nu gewoon gedoemd te falen. Het feit dat het nog niet dood is, is omdat QOL ofwel nog geen publisher gevonden heeft, ofwel het zelf gaat publishen. En sinds dit genre in de MMO markt verzadigd is en Crusade nogal inferieur scoort tegen de concurrentie, kan het nu al op de lijst Failures 2009 gezet worden.

Gameplay
Multi-server, PvE & PvP Support
ALGANON supports both PvE and PvP server types. Both server types will feature Battlegrounds and a ranking system that reflects in both title and the ability to acquire specific items and even skills.
Quests
While the world will be populated with numerous static quests that all can partake in, ALGANON will also offer custom dynamic quests specifically for the character. These quests are designed to add variance to the system and provide unexpected rewards.
Companions & Pets
Taming animals and controlling creatures with magic is part of playing specific classes in ALGANON. These companions will grow with their master, protect them, and can even have their look customized. Pets will be available to all classes, but most pets will be unable to participate in combat.
Characters
Races & Classes
ALGANON focuses on quality rather than quantity. The game will ship with a total of two races and four classes; however, there are so many variations in skills, abilities, and specializations that the results guarantee no two characters will be alike. The first expansion of ALGANON will include 4 new races and 2 new classes, and the second 2 new races.
Action, Ability, Skill and Study Systems
Character Progression in ALGANON is based on four core system. Actions are what characters carry out during game play, such as a special attack or a tradeskill, etc. Abilities represent a point-based distribution system allowing the character to focus on specific class-based specialties. Skills are the underlying methods of growth in utilizing certain areas of class-based focus, such as a character's skill in swords, or a specific profession. Studies are the core support base for all other systems, allowing characters to grow over time at the same rate as all other players.
Enhanced Appearance
During the character creation process, the player can choose from a number of predefined facial structures and appearance adjustments based on selected race. The number of unique combinations is great. A character's appearance is directly affected not only by the weapons and armor, but their actions and power. For example, the more powerful a Kujix becomes, the darker their eyes will be, and the more powerful an Asheroth becomes, the more their eyes will glow.
World
World History
The world of Alganon has a rich multi-cultural background and history that spans thousands of years. Grand cities, dark ruins deep in the most dangerous parts of the world - it all ties together in some fashion, and all of it has a purpose, a history, or a legend. Much of this history is available to the players through the library, but much of it must be discovered.
Alganon features two large continents. The Asheroth-controlled continent of Ardonya, and the Kujix-controlled continent of Harraja. Both continents have all types of terrain spanning forests, fields, plains, deserts, mountains, jungles, swamps, and tundra.
Instances
ALGANON will feature both world and instanced areas for exploration. Some instances will have restrictions on the number of players allowed.
Transportation
In addition to the use of magic, numerous types of mounts will be available to the player, allowing for accelerated traveling. Transports by air, land and sea between towns and cities will also be available.
Factions
Numerous factions control various places within the world. Each character will have the ability to enhance or lower their standings with these different groups, races, and organizations. A character's standing with a faction can affect many things including what items, they can purchase, what areas they can enter, and what creatures are hostile.
Unique
The Library
Both the Asheroth and Kujix capital cities contain a grand library. Players who are contributing to the Library must contribute the information in person while Access to the Library is available from anywhere within the game via the User Interface. Through this interface, players can research items, creatures, magic, tradeskills, and learn about the history of the world and what families, guilds, and people have made amazing achievements. These libraries serve as the central hub of information for each side.
Deities & Crusades
Multiple gods allow characters to represent different powers, teachings and knowledge. This also allows for additional community interaction as well as conflict throughout the world. One player who declares patronage to a specific deity may find that in a certain part of the world, the creatures are drawn to destroy them with much more ferocity than another.
Crusades are the conquering wars that are declared by deities and their followers. Generally the most powerful followers of a deity declare the crusades, such as "wipe every orc from the face of the world", which may gain additional Karma for those who engage in the crusade. Crusades can also empower players; using the previous example, perhaps every character that is part of the religion that has declared the crusade against the orcs receives an additional damage modifier to all orcs for a period of time.
Community
Families & Guilds
The family system was designed to instantly create communities within the world of ALGANON, allowing new players to seek guidance from their more experienced siblings. Instantly communicate with your new family, protect your siblings, and establish your family's name in the history books.
Players can also create guilds and accomplish tasks to be etched in the Great Library's history books.
Parties, Battalions & Legions
Teaming up with other players is critical for many of the quests and crusades in the game - and a requirement to take on many of the legendary creatures in the world. Players can form parties of up to 6 people by simply teaming together. Party leaders can then band together to form Battalions, which allows up to 36 people total (6 party leaders). The leaders of those Battalions can then choose to form massive Legions of up to 216 players.
Both the Battalion and Legion interfaces support unique command options where the leaders can easily transmit commands to specific groups, and even classes within their organization.
A legion has one warlord leader that can issue orders to all battalions and parties within the legion, allowing for specific and concise orders to be relayed.
Economy
Auction System
Share your goods on the public auction house for a profit. Beyond this, our default auction system will support a number of internal tools to help determine the current market price for merchandise, as well as demand.
Consignment
While the Auction House is for the sale of items, Consignment is for players to post requests for items to be made or found. This allows players to set up and participate in player-based "item quests" within the Consignment house.
Tradeskills & Harvesting
Professions, Gathering Skills, Processing Stations, and more. The world of ALGANON is designed to have an internal stable economy where a balance between "controlled" currency, items, and materials exists with player-based economic involvement.
Using tradeskills, player will also be able to enhance items, add to them (through "mountings"), and engage in embroidery and dying of weapons and armor.
Items
There will be many different types of items in the world. Weapons, Armor, Jewelry, Bags, and Materials are just a few. Items will need to be repaired as they become worn, but it's easy to find a repairer in most villages, towns, and cities. Items come in six flavors: common, special, enchanted, magical, legendary, and godlike.
Other
Client Customization
ALGANON will ship with a custom-built LUA scripting system allowing players to create custom interfaces or enhance existing ones.
Multi-server, PvE & PvP Support
ALGANON supports both PvE and PvP server types. Both server types will feature Battlegrounds and a ranking system that reflects in both title and the ability to acquire specific items and even skills.

De private beta is van start gegaan vandaag
nog een paar leuke details van hun dev blog op mmorpg.com
A ton of effort has gone into solidifying the content of the game. To put things into perspective, we currently have 1,168 Level 1-30 quests just for the Human and Talrok sides that span 3 domains. This includes nearly 2,000 unique armor items and 700 unique weapons. That doesn't include custom items, support items, etc. One thing that's hard to communicate is how large our domains are. Asheran Forest for the Humans is huge. A character can level from 1-30 just in that one domain, focusing on many of the subdomains located within.

Familie pagina is online waar je meer info kan vinden hoe het werkt.
Being a part of a family in Alganon is a great way to join with players that share similar interests. For example, power gamers can be in the same family and casual gamers can be in their own family. You can switch families for a fee or by completing a certain quest, but only between families for a given race.
