What's Up With Wollay? February 4th - February 10th

Feb 10 2012 09:49 PM | Matthew in What's Up With Wollay?

Another week, another set of questions from the Cube World community. Lots of multiplayer & character customisation information this week and not much translating to be done. Lucky us! Have a gander, forum.

Top questions:
  • Prepare yourself for the badlands, Matt Steinhauer asks: What other kinds of biomes will you be adding in future? cloud,ruins, volcano, etc. Nice job on the game so far!
    Wollay replies: @mattmanIII Lava lands and undead lands.
  • Here's a good question from SanctumEntertainment about your Cube World items. Do you keep your progress? A friend asks, "if you get levels and items in a server, will you keep them on another multi-player server?" Thanks!,
    Wollay replies: @SanctumFeed Yes, you keep everything.
  • Filip is curious about the amount of characters you can have. Restricted per server or... will you have multiple characters availible to all servers/worlds or one character per server/world?
    Wollay replies: @goldenhammer11 Multiple characters to all servers/worlds.
  • Tomas Vallecillo's curious about Cube World on consoles. He asks: hey I was wondering if you're strictly making cube world for pc or if you're willing to make it for xbox and/or ps3?
    Wollay replies: @AquaCadetTo Console versions would be cool in the future, but currently I'm focusing on the PC version.
  • Hey you, DemonLord59302, get ready to remove your numbers! Joey Rivard asks: So we can name our characters whatever we want, even if another person has that name?
    Wollay replies: @TortyFwo Yes.
  • Tim Havok got a little deep. He wants to know what happens to your character when you inevitably pass away. He asks: when you die, what exactly happens? Do you lose ex point, Items, ect. Hope you don't lose your items though.
    Wollay replies: @TimHavok Currently you just spawn at the last shrine that you activated and lose nothing.

And here's the rest!

Dev
Spoiler

Pat. asks: ill the game be free to download or do you have to buy it?
Wollay replies: @TheBreadMan97 You'll have to buy it.

James Piercy asks: Is your account locked to 1 race forever or can you change?
Wollay replies: @Outsider7P You can create as many characters/races as you want.

SanctumEntertainment asks: A friend asks, "if you get levels and items in a server, will you keep them on another multi-player server?" Thanks!,
Wollay replies: @SanctumFeed Yes, you keep everything.

austin asks: So are you thinking like the end of February or march will something come out that we could play?
Wollay replies: @austinmadore I can't promise anything, but I'm doing my best to finish a playable version as soon as possible. There is still much to do.

Aaron Pendreigh asks: hi wally how long have you been making this game for? It's looking really good Can't wait to play with friends and quest! Reply plz
Wollay replies: @Robotical2 Started June 2011.

Sekuso Trez asks: I have just started learning C++. How long did it take you before you could make a simple 3D game? (Good Luck on your game btw)
Wollay replies: @SekusoTrez I think I started with 3D programming after 3-4 years of coding experience. But I think you can start earlier.

MattyG asks: In the Cube World videos, is your companion an AI partner or another human player?
Wollay replies: @ItsMeImMattyG Another human player.

Flashlights4u asks: In multiplayer, will you be able to do quests as a group?
Wollay replies: @Flashlights4u Yes.

Ryan Harding asks: But you can make servers and invite your friends, right? Like Terraria and Minecraft?
Wollay replies: @Arkorus @TortyFwo Yeah, exactly.

nathan asks: Hi i just watched the fanmade trailer and have a question. Will you allow people to make mods for your game?
Wollay replies: @natsprat666 Currently modding support is not planned.

Auston Jackson I think your game is pretty unique and that whoever says that it's a copy of minecraft is foolish. What software did you use?
Wollay replies: @PilotAuston C++

James Piercy asks: How much is this game going to be? Thanks for answering my last question.
Wollay replies: @Outsider7P I don't know yet.

Spenser asks: you seem to get a lot of repeat questions do you have a website planned for the game yet?
Wollay replies: @Spenson66 Yes.

Gabriel Caprara asks: what things you still want to put in the game ? like skills or something else.
Wollay asks: @GabsCW More items, quests, skills, landscapes, dungeons.

Derrick Mian asks: dude CubeWorld looks really amazing. Will it be F2P or P2P? Or pay once and you play forever for free?
Wollay replies: @DerrickMian Pay once.

Tomas Vallecillo asks: hey I was wondering if you're strictly making cube world for pc or if you're willing to make it for xbox and/or ps3?
Wollay replies: @AquaCadetTo Console versions would be cool in the future, but currently I'm focusing on the PC version.

Joey Rivard asks: Let me restate my question. Will account names be like WoW? For example, you log in with your email but your characters ign is diff
Wollay replies: @TortyFwo It's not an online game.

Spenser asks: You said you have a new name for the game already is the alpha/beta going to reveal to us the new name?
Wollay replies: @Spenson66 I don't know, maybe I'll reveal it earlier.

ErwanOfil asks: What do you want to add before the alpha release ? Armor and weapons or more ?
Wollay replies: @ErwanOfil Yeah items, quests etc.


Items
Spoiler

Saphirian asks: Was sind eigentlich die gelben Spirits die man auf den Obsidian Armor-Screens sehen kann?  (What are the yellow Spirits visible on the Obsidian Armor screenies? Translated by: kbasten)
Wollay replies: @theSaphirian Leuchtende Feuer-Spirits.  (Glowing Fire Spirits. Translated by: kbasten)

L4mppu asks: Are weapons and armors gonna have different rarities like rare, unique, epic, etc?
Wollay replies: @L4mppu I'll probably add rarities for the materials they're made of. Like iron = normal, bone = rare, obsidian = epic

Jimmy Le asks: did u already answer adding voxel cubes to armor?
Wollay replies: @AZNjimmyKID @NoahC_ Yes, you can add voxel cubes to armor.

Fritz Wurster asks: Will there be shops as in will this be an MMORPG where all your friends can trade etc..?
Wollay replies: @FritzWurster NPC shops yes, MMORPG no

Fritz Wurster asks: So I could take an iron helmet to a shop and sell it for coins?
Wollay replies: @FritzWurster Yes.

Erlend Øztan asks: Will helmets be customizable, like the weapons?
Wollay replies: @Tyrxz Yes.

Spenser asks: Looks nice. Is there going to be different types of armor? Light & Heavy? I would assume so since there is a wizard class now.
Wollay replies: @Spenson66 Yeah, I'll add cloth armor for wizards.

Tactless says: (referring to helmets) nice but its a shame you cant see the face, makes races almost pointless
Wollay replies: @Tactless44 You can hide it if you want.

Matt asks: Can all races wear helmets?
Wollay replies: @menthol_penguin Yes.

Tactless asks: (referring to helmets being toggle-able) awesome, that's i feature i use in almost any game that has it, unless i find a really nice helmet
Wollay replies: @Tactless44 Me too.


Characters:
Spoiler

Guillaume Melançon asks: Sorry for my bad english but I've one more question: Instead of the wizard class what do you plan for the other class?
Wollay replies: @THEAmeos In the first version there will be warrior (melee weapons and bows) and wizard (spells). Maybe a thief-like class in the future.

Joey Rivard asks: So we can name our characters whatever we want, even if another person has that name?
Wollay replies: @TortyFwo Yes.

Filip asks: will you have multiple characters availible to all servers/worlds or one character per server/world?
Wollay replies: @goldenhammer11 Multiple characters to all servers/worlds.

Tim Havok asks: when you die, what exactly happens? Do you lose ex point, Items, ect. Hope you don't lose your items though.
Wollay replies: @TimHavok Currently you just spawn at the last shrine that you activated and lose nothing.

Derpy Hooves asks: will there be different spells for wizards as in destruction, healing and such ?
Wollay replies: @atlantisboy4 Yes, probably. I'm still experimenting with it.


Customisation
Spoiler

Martyn Littlewood asks: so I'm assuming it's choosing from a number of hairstyles and clothing. Uploading custom model would be too generous
Wollay replies: @InTheLittleWood Exactly.

Noah Crispo asks: Nice! Preset hair/eyes with colour sliders? Or more customization like with adding voxels to weapons?
Wollay replies: @NoahC_ Presets with color sliders.

Alexander suggests: you should add different skincolors too
Wollay replies: @ToxicatedMind I will do that.


World
Spoiler

Guillaume Melançon asks: Will the will be some type of npc vaillage?Like dwarfian npc village?
Wollay replies: @THEAmeos Yes.

Some One asks: Have you added a weather system and more atmosphere feel, like ambient sounds?
Wollay replies: @Neurotesla Not yet.

Stranger asks: Will we be able to do destruction to the environment similar to the giant orc or bird-like creature?
Wollay asks: @ninjabart122 Currently just monsters can destroy stuff.

Tomas Vallecillo asks: thanks! oh and also one more question... will the game still have randomly created worlds?
Wollay replies: @AquaCadetTo Yep, it's randomly generated.

Matt Steinhauer asks: What other kinds of biomes will you be adding in future? cloud,ruins, volcano, etc. Nice job on the game so far!
Wollay replies: @mattmanIII Lava lands and undead lands.

June asks: Will dungeons have loot chests or something along those lines?
Wollay replies: @Neoka28 Yes, I want to add chests, traps and doors next.

Elite asks: I've noticed some cave-ish things in the minimaps of your other screenshots. Are the only underground bits going to be dungeons?
Wollay replies: @LeetCraft There are also caves.

Guillaume Melançon asks: I'm curious, do you plan something for quest that they could be linked whit a dugeon?
Wollay replies: @THEAmeos Yes, I want to add dungeon quests.

Reiss Holt asks: Will You Make Event Quests? Such As "Protect Town X From Bandits/Monsters And Things Like "Slay The Beast To End An Event" Things?
Wollay replies: @RHRampage I'll see if it's possible when I add more quests. The idea is great.

Ulv Borge asks: This looks really awesome i just have to ask will the dungeons be random like the quests?
Wollay replies: @UlvBorge Yes.

brown biscuit asks: ahhh thanks for the clarification, also, how about adding wollaymammoths to winter biomes?
Wollay replies: @brown__biscuit Uhm... better not.

Fuey500 asks: Are you going to make Chain quests too? like slay the 5 goblins to and give me 10 shards o' pain to summon a troll? or something?
Wollay replies: @Fuey500 Yes, chain quests are planned.

OwnedTom asks: What is your favourite feature in Cube World so far?
Wollay replies: @OwnedTom Exploring an unknown world.



Also, we're after a What's Up With Wollay banner! If you have the talent, please design a little Cube World banner (No bigger than 500x100) with "What's Up Wollay" on it, with enough room to add the issue number somewhere in a blank area. If we pick your design, you'll be our first featured voxel in our next series!

I am an AMAZING artist, but suck with pixels, if someone could tell me what the maximum looks like, or maybe give me a label of it (500x100)
I would greatly appreciate it, or post it here, so other people know the same. >.<

If you are using photoshop you should just type in the pixels. If you are using paint (please do not use paint for art projects) you can press Ctrl + E, type in 500 in the width box and 100 in the height box. You can use paint to get a blank white image file with the correct sizing so it does work. Although it is crappy as an art tool itself xD
Gimp and Paint.net and others I am not sure about, likely similar to photoshop.

Why is this one in Community news when the other was in Cube World news?

I'm a little concerned about the being able to name your characters whatever you want. How will we be able to definitively tell someone is trying to pretend to be someone else for scamming purposes?

Maybe it doesn't show their characters name in Multiplayer (ie. In chat or nameplate)? Maybe it will only show in Quests and other character releated things.

Hopefully there is an indication if someone is using a nickname and that by inspecting that player or whatever we can find out their account name.

However! There is a big thing that Wollay should consider. Just like happened to 'Manacraft', when the hype is at his highest you have to release your game. Or the hype will die.

I hope it will be like Dungeon Defenders, where you can have any name you want but people can still see your username, to know it's really you.

Why sing christian songs? Why not Mongolian throat songs? You know, sitting in the corner with your legos, rocking back and forth while singing Mongolian throat songs... much more awesome.

Honestly, sitting in a corner, stabbing other legos in the face with other legos, while chanting Our Father, in the corner, by all means would probably break the universe, Christian Violence Causer. Seems legit.
