Looks pretty fun!

i've been waiting for an mmo with player-made cities for a long time.

now i just want an mmo with player-made government, and i'm in.

edit: looks good, i'm in. just tell me the server you're on when it comes out.

also, is there pvp? how does the race system work?

From wiki...

It has also been confirmed that players will be able to take part in massive siege operations. Adventurers can cooperate with one another to build massive cities with walls, towers and catapults that can protect player-owned taverns and merchant facilities. The world will respond appropriately to the rise of player cities, though, even AI controlled enemies will build their own cities, ensuring a constant stream of brutal city-vs.-city combat as players try to knock down enemy walls or defend their homes.

yo, this game looks sick!!

is the release still may 20th?

[Thundax]

Yeah dude I'm pretty sure, go to a gamestop and put down like 5 bucks so you can get the war mammoth and a 8 slot bag for ur inventory. i just got my code, it lets you play 3 days earlier too

This is Q&A on the Beta Concerns ... Don't play the Beta Matt, just wait the beta will ruin it!

[Azurai]

The client is unstable and leaks like a sieve. Honestly, the game looks like it could be fun when they fix the performance issues but I wonder about how I would feel playing this game for a long period of time. Autoattacking is just... tiresome. Spamming 1-3, e and q for autoattack in between combos while adjusting for mob shielding (which as far as I saw was either go 1-3 in order or hit the side they never shield) almost feels belabored. It doesn't have the feel of a real fighting game or hack'n'slash like D2 so it isn't nearly as exciting or fluid as you'd think it would be. Its basically twice the button mashing and twice the thinking to do what you do in every mmo right now with no real benefit to the fun that I can see.

[Thundax]

in the Q&A they answered that leak, and said in the beta they know about it and should be fixed by launch. I've always wanted a game where a guild could build their own city and city sieges just sounds to good so I'm willing to give this game a try and hope that it lives up to everything. The combat system I think is pretty cool, can't be lazy in this game

It sounds like another Shadowbane but with a bit more thought put into it.

I might try it as well just to see if it works for me.

[Thundax]

yeah i actually liked shadowbane, game play was bad tho. this one seems to be kind of promising as far as gameplay so it might make it!

[Talisen]

After looking more into it I think I will go ahead and pre-order it.. looks interesting at the least.

What do you want to do as far as building a city/guild?

[Thundax]

I dont know probably find a good group of people whos looking to do the same and help get one going.

[Talisen]

Seriously though.. Pre-Order item choice: Mammoth, Rhino, or some bow?

Would the bow really be worth passing a mount for?

Collectors edition.....mmmm....
