Camps/Tents

Omrie

Just a quick question, I see tents, and camp fires in alot of these AoC pictures, does that mean we can set up camps like this in game?

Iv not read anything about this but some of the finer details youjust have to wait for the release or BETA

To my knowledge there isn't any concrete evidence of these features, but then again we don't know a lot about those 'little' features yet.



I'm sure that with the closed beta getting underway (now?) we'll see much more information either given by Funcom or leaked by testers.

We might or might not be able to do so, we simply don't know.

Those campsites could just as easily be static restpoints, or enemy NPC spawning grounds.

I remember reading that before you attempt to seige a city, you must first set up a camp outside the city walls...not sure if that helps though...

The camp is just part of the process of "challenging" the owners of the keep. They have a certain period of time (probably a day or more) to answer the challenge,  at which point they pick a time for their keep to be open to attack. If they ignore the challenge, they become open to attack regardless. The system may sound a little wierd, but its designed to help prevent player cities from being burned to the ground just because only a very few guild members were online.

I really like the camp concept. Especially since there are several ways to plunder them. Kinda reminds me of Oblivion (although it was really a challenge then)
