Guilds
We promised you new aspects of Krafties, and this is an addition we’re extremely excited about: GUILDS! Gather your friends and family to form guilds and work together to earn personal accomplishments and group achievements!
Achievements, you say? The new guild achievement system adds a new layer to Krafties game play. Every new day, week, and month you and your guild will work together to earn special achievements for the corresponding time period. Once earned, these achievements give everyone in the guild special in-game perks. Some give you extra experience for each soul or item you craft. Others boost your active experience from combat and healing. Others yet will give you extra energy, special guild mystery gifts which can contain a variety of things, and more!
Within the app you will see actions and events for all your individual guild members in the Activity Feed, and can communicate with and congratulate them with the built in guild chat or private messaging features! We hope that this system brings Krafties players closer together, and creates tight knit communities within the game.
You can only be in one guild at a time, and can only join by invite, so choose your guild wisely!
In order to use the guild system you’ll need to acquire a new Necessity Pack v4.02.
We cant wait to see you all teaming up and forming guilds, so send out those invites and have fun!
Developer’s Notes
First thing to note, this system is in alpha! (See the alpha tag plastered to the top of the guild app) This has taken a LOT of work [months and months] and introduces many changes to the code base, as well as adding an entirely new server type which allows us to push real time data to open apps. It will be continually changed and added to as time goes on, but we’re confident that it’s ready to be tested on a large scale.
This new server type is extremely exciting, and is also the most worrisome aspect of this addition. Once we have it functioning perfectly with the guild system, though, it means we can add lots of new things. Things like real-time game wide events, stable app-to-app player interactions (think more interactive battles, terrain exploration with your friends, etc.), important notices, and infinitely more! It’s what I personally think is the beginning of a very exciting future.
