Estimated travel times

So why is travel important? We've talked about this in the past, the reasons why. We've all existed in games where teleportation is very easy to use and sometimes that can be a detriment because you may have activities like a caravan run that's happening and one person sees you from a certain guild and they do the raid callout to their guild "everyone open your portals and come here within a split second and we're going to just mob this group". No, well instead that opportunity doesn't exist. If you want to provoke or to gank an operation of another guild, you need to have foreknowledge. You need to prepare. You need to place your forces around that area; and that is an important aspect. In addition, it makes that travel meaningful. If you are having to spend time to move to a location, you're going to think about what can I do along the way? Why am I moving to that location? How is it more beneficial for me to be in that location versus where I am now? This is also in association with the fact that you are a citizen of a particular node and that node needs your assistance within its vicinity; and if you want to move outside of that vicinity there should be a really good reason for that and there's lots of great reasons for it. – Steven Sharif

Déplacement du joueur

Walking and running shown in pre-alpha gameplay.

• Sprinting will consume a percentage of a character's mana pool. Sprinting will not be permitted while in combat.
  • A sprinting/dash skill with a cooldown was confirmed to be part of a class kit.

I've instructed design to incorporate a mana consumption that's percentage based for sprinting. So it'll be a similar amount of time that each class, regardless of their mana values, will have in order to sprint and it will not be accessible while in a combat. – Steven Sharif

• There is a toggleable walk/run (autorun) capability.

• There is not going to be any "go to waypoint" (auto-pathing) mechanics.

• Back-peddling (walking backwards) and strafing are slower than normal movement speed.

• Double-jumping has been considered as an option for player mounts.

• Unreal Engine 5 mantling was demonstrated by the developers.

Faster travel

Les voyages plus rapides dans Ashes of Creation font référence aux.

• Montures montées par les joueurs.
  • Les Montures auront des vitesses variables.
• Points de vol entre les nœuds d'une region spécifique.
• Dirigeables entre les métropoles scientifiques.
• Téléportation entre métropoles scientifiques et leurs nœuds vassaux.
• Invocations de famille.

Même s'il n'y a pas de voyage rapide, il y a un voyage plus rapide. Donc, vous connaissez les montures. Il y aura des points de vol entre certains nœuds via l'utilisation de créatures automatisées volantes que vous pourrez utiliser. Des choses comme ça. – Steven Sharif

Le voyage rapide est limité dans Ashes of Creation.

• Les montures permettent de voyager rapidement.
• Il n'existe que très peu de téléportations dans le monde.
  • Les métropoles scientifiques permettent des voyages rapides vers des noeuds à l'intérieur des limites de leurs zones d'influence.
• Il n'y aura pas de mécanisme de « déplacement vers ce point » (voyage automatique).

Il n'existe que très peu de téléportations dans le monde. On peut en débloquer une partie grâce à des métropoles d'un certain type. En outre, il existe des montures qui permettent de voyager plus rapidement et des services qui permettent de voyager rapidement entre les noeuds. – Steven Sharif

Public transportation

There are multiple types of public transportation services where players can go AFK and be driven somewhere.

• Players can visit a node building and pay a fee to be driven via road to another node on their land mount of choice.
  • The node building can be upgraded to become a flight path, which allows longer direct connections to other nodes within a specific region that also have a flight path.

• Airships between metropolises. This was previously stated to be between scientific metropolises.
• It is possible that some public transportation services could be player-driven.

One of the nodes has the idea of an airship that can go from node to node and I'm certain that we will have harbors that do similar things with other node types... It might be something that could be player-driven... We're sure to have a taxi system where you load up a couple people and you drive them somewhere while you AFK. – Jeffrey Bard
