Vehicles and fast travel

[mortal Offline]

Do the devs plan on implementing vehicles eventually, or maybe a fast travel system to get to different parts of the cities faster.

Based on VTM bloodlines I think there will be fast travel in the game. But these are different Dev’s with different ideas. I’m not sure. It’s up to them. 

 

I will say though why would a vampire need a car when he or she could leap across building and run faster then any normal human. But mounts and such in mmo’s have become quite popular so maybe there will be cars idk.

I find mounts to be a waste of time in an MMO of this genre, we will not be traversing endless amounts of land to finish one quest in this game. Most of the quests will be within walking distance as many are set by other players themselves.

I agree, I don’t think we will ever need mounts in this game.

for scenic reasons some would like to have their own car perhaps with driver (Domini or Cruor for example)… others will find more appealing the long run leaping from a building to an other but there’s a limit to it… if I have to run 30km, perhaps I’ll prefer a taxy ride

for fast movement necessities, a Taxy or Metro system will be enought, with some kind of cutscenes or other that covers loading necessities.

Pretty sure there will be fast travel like taxis or airplanes (when the devs add other countries). Kinda pointless to own a car, whether you gain teleportation or not. I mean, this isn’t GTA. If you steal a car or kill a pedestrian, your character would be in trouble.

Then again, this game will be PvP. If you don’t have teleportation, maybe it’s a good idea to have a vehicle if you need a quick escape from other player(s)? But it also brings the question: where would you even keep the vehicle?

^Or there could be some magical artifact like a teleportation device for the races without magic (humans and werewolves, maybe the hunters?).

Now that am think about there probably won’t be vehicles in game just yet because it would take time to figure out the physics of them and how vampiric powers will interact with them. Most likely there will be parked cars and cars stationed outside a players apartment or mansion for them to fast travel from. Or a global map on a players in game computer or cell phone.

I wonder if vampire could work as taxi driver, special taxi for other Kindred or just night driver who doesn’t fear gang-ridden neighborhoods and use it as his business advantage

Ya! Ya! In his house at New Orlean, undead Lestat waits dreaming.

interesting idea. Theory: If we could drive taxi’s and cars of the like in game 

could vampires run as fast as these cars?

Are ambushes a possibility?

Will there be tolls or restrictions for passing through a kindreds if sabbaths territory ?

These are all questions that will need to be answered if vehicles are in game. The reason I doubt there will be drivable vehicles in game is because of the time it would take to implement after creating the various cities, character models, storyline, powers, abilities, weapons , damage, covens, fps, graphics, etc. 

I hypothesize that ve chiles are sadly very low on the devs list of things they want to implement. However sense this game will likely have 2-4 more years of production process left before launch it is possible that drivable vehicles will reach the top of my hypothesized , meteforical list,

I see a bunch of people forgetting that you’re supposed to keep your powers and nature a secret. You guys would not last ONE night in VtM. You’d be running down the street like a dumbass using celerity and get picked up by the Sheriff and killed for Masquerade breach.
