What is lineage ban?

when you have played 30 minutes in one family or get murdered you will recieve a lineage ban for one hour and thirty minutes (correct me if im wrong with the bantime) that makes you not able to spawn back into the same family
only exeption is when you have eved a full life you will be able to spawn back in the fam you started

If you live for longer than 30 minutes (30 years) in one family the game will prevent you from spawning to that same family for one hour and thirty minutes. There are some things that change this, for example a Eve if they make it to old age are able to spawn back to the family they started ONCE and if there are fewer than X number of players on a server the family ban time will be shorter.

Keep in mind that this ban is family based and not location based, so if you were to twin eve (or more) with someone else, the two of you will not be related to each other, so once you die (let's assume you didn't make it to old age) you are able to spawn to your friends family without having to worry about the lineage ban timer.

Oh I see, thanks!

is it 1h30 minutes of playtime or server running time?

xclame · 2018-10-19 23:05:16

1h30 real time, So you can leave and come back after that and if you are lucky you might get back to your previous camp.

Does anyone know the reason lineage ban does not kick in until after 30 minutes? Was it intended to reduce baby suicides? (because if so, it isn't working!)

I believe it was to prevent people from being banned if their mother abandons them as a baby. It doesn't happen often now from what I see, but when I started playing I was abandoned more times than not. I joined when their was a large influx of new players though. We may see this again when it launches on steam.

Also, the reason for the ban from what I understand is so that people can't be born back to the same family over and over again to continue their personal work. You aren't as likely to have a life work you want to continue if you die as a child.

It's the opposite. It's to stop people from being launched into Eve Hell because you get the one terrible mother inside a town/village. I'm sure you've seen people neglect babies in town who clearly want to stay just to die because their mother/people didn't care to feed the baby. The idea for the switch was to allow newer players who have a hard time as is from dooming themselves to being Eve constantly since they forget to eat in a village full of food.

At it's max you were looking at three hours of not going back to a place once you died so if you got multiple bad mothers or you were having trouble keeping yourself alive you got sent to Eve Hell.

Guys i'm really confused. I started a nice family as an eve called the honas. I waited 1h30. And even after like 20 respawns, i still can't respawn in that family. the best i did is spawn there as an eve, so i know they still exist!

Floofy · 2018-11-22 06:49:57

I think i've been respawning for 20 minutes straight now, and suiciding as Eve constantly, and i still didn't meet my honas family yet. Do i have to buy a second game to meet my family again?

Are you guys sure the lineage ban is real time and not play time?

It's playtime, not real time. Why design a 'log out and play later' feature into your game?

Because the village would have been progressed in the same way as if you were playing somewhere else or even another server? Because everyone you knew would been dead also etc.

Floofy · 2018-11-22 15:44:52

i mean, i think what the dev is missing is that, yes, sure, contributing to a village and never comming back to it can be interesting. But actually contributing to multiple generations of the same lineage is also something a lot of players would love to do. If he doesn't enjoy doing that, that's fine. People who don't can simply suicide when respawning in same line. But some people would love to continue their own line.

Chances are the Honas family line died out while you were gone.

The idea behind the game is that life is fleeting and precious, you do the best with what you are born into. If everyone does their best, then a civilization will survive and you may be born into it many times. If everyone dies the civilization dies with them.

I played a Honas half a day ago... looked her up on the family tree... At the time of posting this, they are still going (server 2).

Edit: I just see, they somewhere lost the family name due to a mother not giving on a name I suppose.... but the descends are still going...

I was Eve Honas. As u can see, they are still going. But now i understand my mistake, i had to do 1h30 of play to be reborn there. I went afk for 1h30 instead....

And actually, wtf, they DID lose their family name. How can that happen.

It happens when a mother forgets to name their child. The child can name their own kids, but the family name is lost.

Cecil · 2018-11-22 18:50:47

A lost family name can be recovered again if there are surviving family members with the lastname. Any daughters birthed by the nameless mom most be named by an adult who still has the lastname.

You can also convert a bloodline from one lastname to another with this method if there's two different families at once location. It's basically adoption.
