Fractured Online Dev Update Highlights Biome Changes

While we wait for Fractured Online to eventually return next year, the developers are hard at work rebuilding the MMORPG. In fact, they showed some of that work off recently in a dev video where things like biome changes were highlighted. As stated in the video, the team is working to “establish a new style,” and part of that includes rebuilding the game’s world. This means creating new assets or finding ways to re-utilize old ones.

Also looked at was the character system and customization. This includes the implementation of a better armor coloring system. Effectively, the character system had to be rebuilt from the bottom up as well. For those wondering, the system supports three colors per piece of armor.

During the video, time was also allotted for player questions. Right off the bat, concerns from players who spent money backing the game in some way were reassured that they would still have access to the things they spent money on, such as VIP time. That said, it was noted that VIP rewards are being changed. Those who spent money on tokens and used them to buy gold will have the tokens reimbursed so they may spend them again. Gold, however, may not be purchasable.
