Organizzazioni sociali
Organizzazioni sociali are ways for players to interact with the world around them in a different manner. They are about creating micro communities within the game.[2]
- The whole idea of these societies is that they are a mechanism for progression that do not have to rely on your level progression. These are different progression paths that players can participate in. If you don't want to leave a node in your gameplay experience and you want to find as much as you can do within that city, these offer those things. Now, some quests might take you outside of the city to hunt and pursue things, but you could also perfectly be a person that is a merchant and purchases them from other travelers instead of having to go do it yourself. We want to offer players a diverse method of progression; and these systems house those benefits.[4] – Steven Sharif
- Sometimes two organization's goals might not align with each other and there'll be conflict there, but it's not going to be like everybody in the Traders Guild is at war with everybody in the Thieves Guild.[5] – Jeffrey Bard
- Social organizations are run by NPCs, however there will be ranks that certain members can attain that will grant some influence over the organization.[6]
- Social organizations cater for solo players who don't wish to engage in guild-oriented organizations.[7][8]
Types
Different types of Organizzazioni sociali have different objectives relating to their specific types of game play.[2]
Joining
Players may only pledge loyalty to one social organization at a time.[2]
- Social organizations are system generated. They are not owned by players.[9]
Benefits
Progression within a social organization offers different rewards.[10]
- Titles.[10]
- Access to special shops.[10]
- Abilities that are usable during node sieges or other events.[10]
- Up to 3 or 4 augments.[11][12][4][13]
- If you are part of a town that has been developed and the Scholar's Academy has the most amount of work from the players, that becomes a patron organization of the city so will grant certain benefits and services to players that they can participate in, that relate to their position within the Scholar's academy. Augments are a huge thing that these different societies will offer. They're not going to be a lot of arguments within the society's progression: It will probably be around 3 or 4 that exist per organization. So, you'll have to really investigate and study which organization is most beneficial for the path you've chosen with your archetype or whatever role you wish to have in the world.[4] – Steven Sharif
Organizzazioni sociali offer special cosmetics.[4]
Organizzazioni sociali have a role in artisan progression.[4]
- Providing tools to improve gathering, such as special lures for fishing.[4]
- Providing blueprints for processing infrastructure that players may build on freeholds.[4]
- Providing mount certificates for breeding.[4]
Organizzazioni sociali may relate to which bosses might need to be killed first and may affect building progression of a node.[2]
Social organization augments
Organizzazioni sociali unlock Up to 3 or 4 augments based on:[11][12][4][13]
- Whether the organization is the patron of their node: Meaning it contributes the most amount of work to the node from its members.[4]
- A player's progression within that organization.[4]
- You're gonna see augments being used a lot throughout a lot of our systems. When we're talking about the guild system, when we're talking about social organizations, when we're talking about religions. A lot of those things are going to affect how and what you have available to augment your skills with.[13] – Jeffrey Bard
Progressione
Social organization progression is achieved through accomplishing tasks or quests within that social organization.[2]
- Some progression is static, but more competitive achievements will be seasonal, based on a ladder system.[14]
There are hierarchical paths pertaining to specific questlines for the organization's thematic.[2] These quests will either be cooperative with or adversarial against other nodes based on their mutual war status.[15]
- - For example, a Thieves' guild may have objectives and quests toward securing a particular item to enable players to advance within the organization.[2]
- Social organizations are going to have questlines that players participate in which some will include sabotage, espionage, intrigue... While it's not necessarily player versus player in the combat sense, it is player versus player in pitting communities in those organizations against each other in a competitive atmosphere, where only some things can be accomplished by certain communities; and not everybody can succeed at a particular task. So, I think that that's a unique way to involve meaningful conflict that doesn't necessarily have to relate to PvP, because obviously we have a lot of PvP systems in the game and and there are many ways for players to participate in player versus player combat; but we also want to make sure that from a progression standpoint, from a system standpoint there are going to be abilities of individuals to follow these questlines, these tasks that will pit organizations against each other, specifically from an organizational standpoint.[16] – Steven Sharif
Leaving
A player can switch organizations, but will lose progress in their previous organization.[2]
Affiliazioni
An affiliation tree determines which entities can participate in attacks against other entities within its hierarchy.[17][18]
- Corrupted players can be attacked regardless of other affiliations. This is something that will be tested during Alpha-2.[19]
- Node citizenship.[17][18]
- Alliances.[17][18]
- Gilde.[17][18]
- Parties.[17][18]
- Incursioni.[17][18]
- Family.[17]
- Religion.[18]
- Society.[18]
There's node citizenship. There's guild. There's alliance. There's party. There's raid. There's family. All of these types of affiliations have a hierarchy. The highest of which is your node affiliation: So your citizenship is your greatest superceding relationship, which means if you were a part of a guild and the guild has multiple nodes in which its members are citizens of, if there was a war between two of those nodes, the members of those nodes would be first and foremost citizens who defend that node, even against their own guild members.[17] – Steven Sharif
All of these things have some hierarchy; and within that hierarchy there's the ability to participate within certain systems. So for example, if you have a node that has fallen under your vassal state and you're a citizen of the parent node, then you could participate in a siege against the vassal node but if you're a citizen of the vassal node you could not participate as an attacker against the parent node; so there's a hierarchy, unless you were to renounce your citizenship.[18] – Steven Sharif
Patron guilds
Patron guilds unlock the following benefits for their members.[20]
- Emblems can be applied to guild armor that can be purchased from the node.[20]
- Participation in the node's stock market.[20]
- Ability to participate in specific guild-based missions that will progress the guild's leveling and development.[20]
- Allocation of guild points to unlock specific node abilities for guild members.[20]
- Ability to claim an in-node guild hall. These have different perks and benefits to halls placed on freehold plots.[20]
- - Whether an organization is the patron of their node means it contributes the most amount of work to the node from its members.[4]
Any number of guilds can be in a node, but the number of patron guilds within a node is limited by node stage.[21]
- Villages and lower do not have patron guilds.[21]
- Towns can have up to 1 patron guild.[21]
- Cities can have up to 2 patron guilds.[21]
- Metropolises can have up to 3 patron guilds.[21]
