Crafting - Basics

[LotusYurei]

I'm curious, I've heard a lot about the crafting system and I've read up on some other discussions. So I was hoping to get the basic questions all into one discussion so other's who are wonderin what it's going to be like can look here.

So let's start.

Crafting is suppose to come out in CU2, correct?
Will it cost money to craft?
When crafting will it be random? (Any choice to what you want to craft?)
Will crafting legendaries require a lot of rares or a specific 'tag'? (Rare, Uncommon, Common, Unique, etc)
Is the crafting system going to be like Tf2? (I don't play tf2 so I have no idea what the crafting is like, if someone could explain that'd be great.)

If you guys have any other questions just post below and hopefully we will get some good answers and a good idea of what to expect with the crafting system.

Yeah the TF2 crafting is basically putting 2 or more items for and exchange for other one, u can see what u will get, but in other craftings u wont see what u will get (Example: Crafting a Hat).
Thats all what i know.

Yes.

Only class tokens will cost money.

Yes, what you craft from the items you have will be completely random, other than the fact dino + dino items = dino items and vise verse for humans. If you want to specifically craft a skin for a class, class tokens will be able to be purchased and used for the class if you wish.

Most likely just a ton of Rares.

Yes, it is like TF2 in a way.

10 Commons = 1 Uncommon

15 Uncommons = 1 Rare

20 Rares = 1 Legendary

This is what they said they plan to have. They stated that the crafting system is going to be similar to CS:GO (I don't play CS:GO so I don't know how crafting works on there)

Hope this helps...

(Don't quote me on this)

Are you talking about the livestream with Aaron Pollack?
Because I think it was 5 commons for an uncommon, 10 uncommons for a rare and 15 rares for a legendary.

This is where the stream was.

I could never listen to it because the Twitch has no quality options and the bitrate was too high.

Is the crafting system going to be like Tf2? (I don't play tf2 so I have no idea what the crafting is like, if someone could explain that'd be great.

Aside from seasonal gimmicks, the only thing you really craft in Tf2 are hats (by destroying a large number of regular weapon drops), regular weapons (almost never worth it, unless the weapon has been recently released) and class tokens (which restrict crafting results to a specific class).

The tf2 crafting system has no relevance to this game, since Primal Carnage has no "weapon drops" (all gameplay stuff is available to everyone all the time) only "skins".

A developer said it will be more like CSGO (destroy a number of skins to receive "rarer" skins).

Crates will also be craftable[primalcarnageforums.com] (supposedly into common items), so if anyone is "kindly" offering you to take your crates off you for free, they are basically scamming you.

That what I heard from him when he first mentioned it in the stream too. He did say those are not set in stone.

Well, only if they are actually doing any crafting that is. I know a lot that aren't.

As far as we know, yes.

so legendary (x1) = legendary (x1)? or is it
legendary (x2) = legendary (x1)

You can't craft legendaries into other legendaries.

Really?! That seems somewhat silly. Why do you think they won't allow it? Too cheaty?

I don't know. I just remember that I asked that once, and they said no.

"Is it possible to craft a legendary into another legendary?
It is not."
