Skins, avaliabe players, map sizes, speak range

Post by ASSASSIN »

Does anyone knows what kind of skins will be avaliabe in the game? Will only be human players (if so, what kinds?), or other races as well (wartoks, orcs, perhaps dragon skins, or half-dragons like D'Rynn?).

Will there be different character types? (like orc, who is stronger but has less intelligence, faery, who is intelligent but weak, etc.?)

Or is it still unknown?

One more thing I would like to ask - how big the world of DO:TQ will be in total? (for easier counting, how many 200*200 Drakan maps could fit it)? Or is it this also unknown?

Will there be some kind of opportunity to contact players who are far away? (Like my dear friend Dtuath is in the other corner of the map, and I wanna message him to come to me.)

Its possible to play as different races, yes but at the moment its unknown what they will be. As for the number of maps, this is also unknown but I think it will be about the size of D: TAG's world.

Okay, and how big D:TAG's world is? I never played it......

How big is it in comparison to Drakan: OOTF's?

Definitley yes, it will have a higher polygon count for starters and make use of the features found on newer graphics cards.
