A purple dragon! Is that person off the ground being eaten? Dangling from its jaws?
So apparently gnome, ogre, archai, human are currently the playable races. Is that what I'm seeing?
What a tease! Here is a little crafting info with no mention of the giant purple dragon in the room...
Ha! Right? WTF?! Pre-Alpha dragons T.rex'ing PCs? Damn your NDA!
Lol you can see some dwarves and elves in there too if you look really closely. Basically all the ones that have been shown in streams so far.
Terminus was home to dragons long before any other races migrated there. If you haven't checked out the lore, do yourself a favor and read up. I expect dragons to have a far greater presence in Pantheon than they have had in other MMO's. They have their own languages, hierarchy, etc. The dragon depicted here is most likely just a baby compared to what you'll see later on. With the mention of harvesting lines, I wonder if anybody had an opportunity to skin that bad boy?

Could be that or the texturing is just different. Pre-Alpha.

Maybe, but I've sent this image link to a few people and the first impression of 5/5 is "photoshop","fake","what's wrong with the dragon", and "no, pieced together from many pics" so until I hear a VR employee say it's an unedited "live" PA1 screenshot, I'm going to go with it's an edited screenshot. (and no, i'm not talking about the text, I'm talking about the dragon, the lighting, and the character in the jaws).
Heck, there is what looks like lens flare BEHIND the head of the dragon? Or some other weird thing going on there.

It's real, I have spawned it many times in PA sessions as a GM and even sometimes crashed the server with 10+ of them spawned, not final graphics, colours or animations by any measure but it is 100% real, I can assure you. Once the NDA lifts just ask all of the PA testers that I kill with it and they will tell you lol ;)

As a matter of policy, the only edits we make to screenshots are to add text, copyrights, etc.
vjek said:Well that's why I was surprised, because there's a few.. ok, so, let's just say not 100% final, and quality issues and leave it at that. Glad to hear it's unedited.
They were just showing a zerg/raid on a dragon for testing w/e they were testing.
vjek said:The dragon looks... well.. edited? Maybe not the right word, but it looks like a modified screenshot for some reason? Hard to say exactly why.
I believe that may be a drake. But regardless that dragon//drake looks like the world's most angry Sesame Street charater. :p
