This event will be held on Saturday, August 27th from 9 am – 1 pm and then from 3 – 7 pm server time. It's a new take on the MMORPG genre, and I'm looking forward to seeing what types of shards folks come up with. It's no secret that creating a big game with a small budget is hard, so I find it very smart how the Citadel crew is letting players run and moderate their game for them.
#ULTIMA ONLINE SHARDS CUSTOM RACES FULL#
While Shards Online seems like it will be more fun with a large group, those looking for a single player experience will be pleased to learn Citadel Studios is also creating a full solo story campaign where each shard will have its own little story. You could basically rewrite the entire game if you wanted to, without too much scripting knowledge. They can create new skills and abilities, write new storylines and AI, remove all the spawns, and so much more.
#ULTIMA ONLINE SHARDS CUSTOM RACES MODS#
Using mods made with Lua, players can change everything in shards. This is where the sandbox nature especially comes in to play. Play Gods will be able to create their own custom rule sets for clusters and the shards within them. Players can respecialize and learn different skills as well, and this was one of the more intriguing aspects of the skill system. Friends, interestingly enough, can also teach you a skill if they're proficient enough. Mortals will be able to learn skills from trainers or by finding tomes in dungeons. The more you use a skill, the stronger it becomes. Mortals are limited to how many skills they can learn, but early on you'll be able to try a bunch to see what you like. I imagine most people will play Shards Online with this class. Mortals also have abilities and level up through a skill-based system that's been borrowed from Ultima Online. If you want to explore, adventure, quest, and interact with other players in a normal role-playing setting, then go with a Mortal. What you want to do within a shard determines the type of character you'll make. His stats and skills will persist between shards, but if you want to check out another cluster, you'll need to re-roll.
As is the case with an MMO, your character will only exist on the cluster you make it on. Once you choose the cluster you want to play on, you'll create a character. Clusters, on the other hand, can pack in thousands of players.
For now, each shard can hold up to 34 players, but by launch they'll be able to support 64. Players can travel from shard to shard within a cluster and explore what they all have to offer. Some Shards are more steampunk, others throw you into a Roman colosseum, while another may be an alien world. I'm not just talking high fantasy, either. Each shard has its own story, and there can be vastly different themes present from shard to shard. Then there are the actual shards, which are essentially zones within a cluster. In an MMO you've got PvE servers and PvP servers, each with a predetermined ruleset, and that's how clusters work in Shards Online. Think of clusters like an MMO server with its own set of rules. Shards Online is broken up in to clusters and shards.
