After several recent updates focused on combat, the Crowfall team decided it was time to show off more of the game’s progress, this time shining the spotlight on the Art team in a new post called "A Castle, A Keep & a Crow.

The Crowfall site has been updated with a first look at one of the more popular Archetypes revealed so far, the Centaur Legionnaire. In this latest article, fans can find out about power sources that fuel rotations, mechanics involved for a primary melee attack (L-Mouse) and a dodge (R-Mouse) as well as passives and more. The Legionnaire’s skill tree is also previewed to give an idea of how it will grow over time.

The Crowfall site has been updated with a new blog post that lays out some of the details about testing opportunities going forward. The most exciting news is that pre-alpha testers should be able to get their hands on a team-focused PvP portion of the game later this summer!

I’m a bit torn on the concept of a "ruinable" character in Crowfall. The folks at ArtCraft Entertainment have said a few times now that it is possible to build a character that is just outright broken from the start, but I’m not sure if everyone is quite ready for that yet.

The Crowfall site has been updated with a lengthy post about the Knight archetype, his powers and with a brief look at the in-game UI.

Upon completion of a successful kickstarter, the trend is to continue fundraising via a game store selling off pieces of the packages that were offered during the kickstarter. Crowfall is no different and the store continues to get new things added to entice new players to invest.

Crowfall’s J. Todd Coleman has penned a new article on the site to discuss a recent change to the armor system. In the old system, armor progressed vertically, each tier giving bonuses to all damage types and scaling upward as player’s leveled. The new system, however, all archetypes can wear all armor (cloth, leather, chain, plate), though with pros and cons to damage modifiers.

Balance is a funny concept, both in games and all over real life. Nothing is really ever fair and true balance is not only impossible, but it’s also boring. And in the past, even when game companies worked so diligently to balance every class against the others, there was still an illusion of imbalance.

Artcraft has announced that it has raised over two million dollars in crowd-funding for its forthcoming MMO, Crowfall. Over nineteen thousand backers have contributed to the cause.

The Crowfall team has posted its latest in a series of videos to show the behind-the-scenes creative process that has gone into creating the Centaur, one of the game’s archetypes. Check it out!
