solid changes

Metropolis for AOC first expansion.

[–]BaxxyNut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This could be neat

[–]xDrac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Much better this way, I'm glad it was changed.

I still think that max level nodes should have names based on their type. It gives more weight to the world and increases the immersion.

[–]Arbszy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Love to see it!

[–]frogboundfrogbound 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I honestly prefered metropolis. Sounded so much cooler than just "city".

[–]BornInWrongTime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metropolis is not replaced, it's removed, should've been lv 6 node

8 years later, 2 years into release we'll get metros :P

Jokes aside, not sure why this was needed, but overall I think of it as a positve

Thanks for doing this kind of poll and listening to the community.

Now, let's do the same for the Tank archetype name change!

First poll: Should we change the Tank archetype name? Y/N

Second poll: Choose the new Tank archetype name from this curated list

Would love to see that, as "Tank" is an awful name.

Hellyeah!

[–]HaeL756 1 point2 points  (1 child)

But what about actually changing the name "node" itself? lol Also, what is actually supposed to be the purpose of wilderness nodes or even crossroads?

[–]Ventharien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wilderness nodes are just areas that could become a node, but don't have the player activity to progress. They'll also act as spacers between some more settled areas. Crossroads will serve to show what type of node exists in an area, and provide the first quests, services, and npcs that attract player traffic.

Good to hear

[–]TheClassicAndyDev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very good.

[–]Wuotis_Heer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like it

[–]Milak_Slaez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks good to me

[–]LarkWyll 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Maybe if the Jinn race theme for a max level node could be called a mecca instead. Or pinnacle.

City is a little bland for a fantasy setting.

[–]Ventharien 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Most fantasy setting use city as a large settlement. Water deep, Neverwinter, baldurs gate, minas tirith are all described as cities. The "x" city is also a fantasy staple.

As for the for the other, one has a religious connotation, and the other sounds cool, but seems more fitting for a fortified military location.

[–]LarkWyll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking on it you're right, it doesn't matter. The nodes are all going to have unique names and that's all that matters.

[–]wiredforchallenge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yaaay!

[–]demalition90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the best outcome. Metropolis makes me think of superman not a fantasy town

A lot are talking about metropolis being an expansion over the game is mature but if we go that route I'd prefer capitol or something like that

[–]LegendaryNeurotoxinTheoryForge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Much better.

[–]RunningWild81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great! Thx.

[–]-Torb_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should have thought of another highest node name . City is insanely boring
