Nova

One wipe, every PoV

Recording gives you your own video, saved on your PC. Nova is cloud storage: it uploads that video to an online space your guild shares, and lines it up with everyone else's. Click Tuesday's wipe and there are the four PoVs, playing the same second of the fight. The tank who never saw the puddle, the healer who ran dry, and you.

Recording needs none of it. The app works the same without an account, and that is not going to change.

How it works, start to finish

  1. 1

    Switch it on once

    Sign in from the app and pick what gets uploaded: raids by difficulty, keys from whatever level you care about. After that there is nothing left to remember.

  2. 2

    It goes up as soon as the pull ends

    The upload starts the moment the recording is saved. If you would rather it stayed out of the way while you play, set a speed cap and it will not go above it.

  3. 3

    Open the pull and everyone is there

    In the app or on the site: one wipe, with everyone who uploaded lined up next to each other, ready to watch.

How the screen is laid out: four PoVs over a single bar, and the pull's roster with whoever did not upload grayed out. The layout is the real thing; the group in it is an example. Once there has been a raid night with a few people uploading, the capture goes here.

What it actually does

Four PoVs at once, on the same instant

Nobody starts recording at the same moment, so playing four videos side by side is worth nothing on its own: the same death would happen at four different times. Every PoV says how much footage it has before the pull, and the grid lines them up on the fight instead of on the file. Drag whoever you want into whichever box you want.

Who was there, not just who uploaded

The roster comes off the combat log, so the grid shows the whole pull — five from a key or thirty from a raid — with their class colors and their specialization. Anyone who did not upload grays out, the way an offline player does in the game's raid frames — and those are the people to ask for their PoV.

What happened, as a list that takes you there

Deaths, battle rezzes, group cooldowns and the bosses of a key, each stamped with the minute it happened, counted from the start of the pull. Click “Bloodlust” and all four PoVs jump to that moment together.

Your guild's cloud

What each person uploads is grouped by pull rather than by person: the list is wipes, not a hundred loose clips. And the space belongs to the whole guild, so there is nothing to divide up per head.

Showing it to somebody outside your guild

One link, and that is it. It opens that PoV and nothing else: whoever gets it needs no account, and there is nothing to click through to the rest of what your guild has. Send the whole thing or mark a stretch of it — from here to here, nothing re-encoded and nothing uploaded twice — add a line so they know what they are looking at, and see how many times it has been opened. Revoke it whenever you like, and the video stays exactly where it was.

It uploads on its own — you decide what

A master switch, plus one for each kind of content, so a night of alt keys never eats the space you were saving for progression.

  • Raids by difficulty: mythic only, heroic and mythic, or whatever you want to keep.
  • Mythic+ from whichever keystone level you set.
  • Plain dungeons, off by default.
  • An upload speed cap in Mbps, so it never eats into the connection you are playing on.
  • Turn everything off and nothing leaves your PC. Recording works exactly the same either way.

On the site and inside the app

What your guild uploads opens in a browser — nothing to install for somebody who only wants to watch — and in the app's Cloud tab as well, with the same grid and the same timeline.

What it costs

Through the beta, every guild has a 30-day trial with 100 GB, started whenever you choose. A pull runs to about half a gigabyte, so a night of fifteen pulls with eight people uploading is around 60 GB — a couple of raid nights to fill, and the whole month to watch them back.

When it fills up, the oldest PoV nobody locked makes way for the new one — the same way the app's disk cap works on your own machine. Anything you want to keep, you lock, and it stays.

After the trial, guild plans start at 5 USD a month and a cloud of your own at 3 USD.

What we do not do

Nothing goes up until you switch it on. What is in the cloud is your guild's and nobody else's: there is no public list and no front page of other people's wipes. And deleting is real — the video leaves the storage, it is not hidden.
