How fast is too fast when it comes to MMO combat? That’s the question that’s currently being pondered by the Ship of Heroes devs, who took the opportunity to showcase one of its faster powersets as well as provide a little update on progress.
The Twin Swords character in the showcase is named (appropriately enough) Slash, and he has a number of powers at his disposal, including a power that lets him blip into his target’s face and attack. Overall, the powerset is the fastest in the game currently, and a number of players have said that the overall combat speed in Ship of Heroes is too fast, so the devs are showcasing the fastest possible character available and seeking some feedback on the matter.
Speaking of players, the devs held a recent event where they let 1,000 players in to make a test character and “street sweep,” which is shorthand for “running around the map and killing baddies” if you’re somehow not familiar with the parlance. The next test will be another invasion event for sometime in June, while the next video will showcase something called Operation Valhalla.
For now, you can check out the Twin Swords powerset in the video below and make sure to let your thoughts on the speed of combat be known. We also received another gallery of images for your viewing pleasure as well.
