Ashes Afterglow TC - closing the vault

[ButtonBoy]

Well we do kind of know where we're going next already right? It's hinted at at the end and I know Vostyok himself said it so I presume it wouldn't be much a spoiler if I do as well; we're going to New Nashville. So I assume the "Death Zone" is either a location there or the name of the area around it like how there's the Badlands but Prosperity is within that.

I didn't know that, well that's pretty cool, It's all pretty confusing for me because I'm an Australian and I don't know the first thing about American geography, so yeah, I wonder what if the mutant leader guy is going to be like the antagonist of ep 3

95% sure that mf is just an early design of the big guv you see leaning in the room in the Football arena cutscene.

Voted for 2nd option, ep.1 was great, but ep.2 just blowed it out of the water! Tho I liked the Dam additional map, big thanks to whole team who's working on this! I wish you people great fortune and inspiration on your new projects! Hope that we'll get same AMAZING atmosphere if whatever comes next, because OST and level design was just outstanding in both parts.

Forgot to mention but i did voted for 2nd option because the bigger the levels get, the more immersive they become. Tho i hope it wouldn't be much more difficult or takes too much time because it really can be time-consuming for such a big project. But no rush, and i wish you good luck in the future!

Ah, my bad lol yes Nashville, Tennessee is north of Atlanta, Georgia so we will indeed be going further north but only up into one more state.

A certain AI mentions that there's another facility housing her AI there that we should find and I believe either bring back online or reintegrate with her network so she can have a better picture of the world and what's going on.

We've also heard some talk of places like Chicago though which is right on the northern border with Canada which makes me wonder if we'll ever make our way there in the future like if they ever make a full blown retail Ashes game. But maybe the huge mutant guy plays a bigger role in Ep3 if he survives Afterglow's ending. Though he'd have to follow us all the way into Tennessee so I don't know how likely that is especially with how they seem to be teasing more factions here or at least in the more general "north of Atlanta".

Ah! thanks, It will be interesting to see how Tennessee survived the nuclear apocalypse, Chicago would be cool, you could have some Al Capone style raiders/gangsters inhabiting the place that would be awesome, Canada would be pretty neat too, I also voted for option 2, I prefer afterglow over 2063, don't get me wrong 2063 was a great game, but afterglow was just so much bigger, and just better, it was the next step in the evolution of ashes if you will, so anything like afterglow which comes out in the future will definitely merit a playthrough in my books.

But that still doesn't explain how you can have it/ get it in your inventory

Excuse me? I think you must've quoted the wrong person or something.

[ButtonBoy]

I meant the rocket launcher thing, if you meant the blacked out guy I'm sorry I must of misinterpreted it, sorry

It ain't your fault dude. It's honestly mine because I

1. Forgot to refresh the page before posting my comment. 2. Completely forgot to quote the person my comment was meant for. And due to my own laziness I didn't fix this mistake.

So you honestly have nothing to apologize for as it was my fault for not being clear enough. And for assuming people would understand my cryptic way of writing.

Hey Vos I just had a really cool idea, so we are presumably going to Tennessee for ep 3 right?, in Tennessee the only permanent native American dwellers were the Cherokee, since they were the main tribe in the area it would be really cool if in ep 3 you stumbled across some of the survivors of that tribe, who through reverting back into tribalism, have survived the nuclear apocalypse and are now thriving, TLDR, it would be really cool if you added a native American tribe that you could encounter in ep 3, they could be a faction that you could side with, trade with, etc. I just think that this is a really great idea

This question may be incredibly silly. Do you have to be logged in. In order to vote on the poll?

[ButtonBoy]

yeah you do, and don't worry, no question is too silly all too small, Because I'm sure someone on this forum will be able to answer it

I know it seems like I'm being a bit full of myself quoting myself and all, but I still just think that this is a really cool idea
