I had less time than I thought this week and there were less peaople that are able to make decent weaponry so far than I hoped...
So, however, as soon as I have a bit more crafting skills I will show you a bit of crafting, gathering and extraction

Skill System
So the Devs are back from vacation and alreay at repairing the server...
However, I have found this nice chart stating most skills (all that you have from the start and some that you can learn from books) that are in right now.
At release you will have 800-1000 points to spend on primary skills, no limitations to secondary (well, none but the ones from the primary^^)
As for vids: I try to make one about combat if I can talk a crafter into selling me a weapon (if someone has already discovered how to refine ore so you are able to craft gear out of it^^) as soon as possible, which means most likely weekend or if you are lucky, until thursday

Flagging und Charaktererstellung (mit Video) /Flagging and Charactercreation (with Video)
English Version
UPDATE: Ich habe Screens von der Charaktererstellung in besserer Auflösung gemacht/I have pictures of every screen in the char creation with better resolution here:
Deutsch:
Zuerst zum Flagging:
Jemand Unschuldiges hat eine blaue "Flagge". Greift jetzt jemand diesen Unschuldigen an wird er Grau. Grau bedeutet er ist für einen bestimmten Zeitraum angreifbar ohne dass man für alle grau oder rot wird (falls man zuerst angreift wird man grau, aber nur für den Angegriffenen).

Mortal Online-Kann man das Essen?/Mortal Online-Can you eat that?
English Version
Deutsch:
Falls ihr jetzt Hunger bekommen habt muss ich euch leider enttäuschen-Nein, man kann es nicht essen (oder besser: man kann, es wäre aber ziemlich schmerzhaft).
Was man sofort mitbekommt sobald man einen Screenshot sieht: Es ist First Person, und zwar ausschließlich.
Was ich bisher mitbekommen habe ist dass das zu einem äußerst beklemmenden Feeling beiträgt, vor allem wenn man bedenkt dass man überall angegriffen werden kan
(was einen Murder-count gibt, was das ist erkläre ich später) und das Spiel ist Full-Loot. Soll heißen wenn man stirbt kann jeder alles was man bei sich hatte plündern, man muss eine Balance zwischen gut ausgerüstet und wertvoll finden. Es ist nicht weise mit seiner besten Rüstung alleine durch den Wald zu laufen, eher eine Einladung zum Mord^^

Der erste Post/the first post
English Version
Bevor ich was zu MO sage, erst einmal was zu mir:
Bin recht spät auf MMOs getroffen, spiele seit etwa 5 Jahren, wobei immer wieder gewechselt habe.
Begonnen hat es als ein Freund mich überredet hat WoW mal auszuprobieren. Nur 2 Wochen später war Schluss damit, das Leveln war mir zu dröge geworden. Nach einem Jahr Guild Wars habe ich es irgendwie geschafft mein Passwort zu verlieren, sowohl für den GW-Account, als auch für den Masteraccount. Da ich keine gesteigerte Lust verspürte NCsoft Kopien meiner Geburtsurkunde, Kreditkartenauszüge, meines Passes, Taufscheines, etc... zu schicken bin ich dann eine lange Zeit durch so gut wie alle Gratis-MMOs am Markt gewandert bis ich schließlich wieder bei einem Pay-to-Play angekommen war: Warhammer Online. Nach einem Jahr hatte EA es geschafft mir auch den Spass an dem zu nehmen und ich bin erst einmal etwas ziellos herumgeirrt bis ich Mortal Online entdeckt habe. Glücklicherweise war der Tag der Pre-Order schnell gekommen und nach 8 Stunden andauernden F5-Drückens hatte ich endlich eine Kopie in meinen Händen (Okay, auf der Versandliste, die reele sollte aber auch bald kommen ;) ). Jedenfalls kam mit der Preorder auch ein Betazugang.
Und um diese Beta soll es im Blog gehen (und später natürlich ums fertige Spiel).
In meinem nächsten Post wird es darum gehen was Mortal Online bietet und wie es sich damit von anderen MMOs unterscheidet.
English Version
Before I say something about MO, something about me:
I began rather late with MMOs, it was about 5 years ago as a friend talked me into trying WoW out. I quit only 2 weeks later, the leveling was too boring for me. After one year of Guild Wars I managed it somehow to loose my password for the GW-Account and the Masteraccount. Because I didn't felt like sending NCSoft copies of every document that I ever had, I tried nearly every Free MMO on the market until I was at Pay-to-play again: Warhammer Online. After a year EA had managed to ruin my fun and I found Mortal Online. Fortunately, the day of the PreOrder arrived soon and after 8 hours of F5ing I hold my copy in my hands (OK, in my despatch-list, but the real one should arrive soon ;) ). And with the preorder came a pass to Beta, and the blog will be mainly this beta (and the finished gme, later)
In my next post I will talk about what differs MO from nearly any other MMO on the market
