Yeah I've been waiting for a good Si-Fi MMO for a while. Not that I don't like fantasy but like many have already stated the maket is to saturated with this theme ! Time for something different .
Do not mistake Indifference for Hate. Nor Kindness for Weakness. for this is the Bane of Judgment !
I am awaiting this game, because looking for "something" new into SCI-FI mmorpg's. At least, without a test it's hard to say if the game hits the requirements. Much too different are the opions about old-school MMORPG or more FPS style MMORPG's. Anyhow, hope it will have a good mix of single/group based action.
I'm very glad. I'm sick to death of orcs and goblins...hand me a big plasma gun and I will be in my element.
Oh how I cant wait to destroy some Bane with buddies. Just think of all the fun were gonna have nade'n and rocket'n and kick'n the crap out of those things! I already have one tactic in mind that sounds really fun to do:
Hide behind something, after letting a Bane spot you.
Wait for him to approach to meelee you.
Lobb a nade' into the corner you were crouching in and run like hell!
Hopefully he doesnt know wtf is going on and you get away with just a few guts on your back side!
I know for myself that I will really enjoy the tactics in this game.
I have forever longed for a game like this to come out. Easy to immerse yourself into, I could see this happening in the future. It has a lot of ties into real things we already have- even in the weapons themselves. Real tactics that make a difference. What choices you make, also make a difference in who you are and how the game develops. I want to be on the edge of my seat when I play games- not falling asleep making robotic like choices! (Even the fact you get to make a choice alone in this game, is really cool. There is no 'one' way to complete the story.)
TR is not rainbow-bear. It is the hardcore ideals of what our planet, and universe is becoming. A complete warzone. Get your guns ready.
Hah dang right! While elves are running towards an alien flailing a squirrel, aliens just stand back, tap their foot, and wait for the opportune moment to place a direct shot between the long pointy field goals. ZZZZzzP!

Most of the other sci fi games are ship based only. Only Anarchy Online and SWG were the only that were really character based (there may be small company ones I never heard of). And out of these on AO is what i'd call sucessful.

On the bright side... EVE online is adding avatar playability to the game.. so you're no longer confined to your ship. you now have a full body.. not just a head portrait and can walk around space stations.. from what i hear they are planning msc stuff for you to do and taking all the ship stuff you once had to do at that "Docking screen" into avatar content.. hopefully some fun stuff like social opportunities and maybe a little poker here and there lol. They've also hinted at possible planetary exploration way down the road as well.

well after 2 years of playing EverQuest, I was trying Anarchy Online and I wanted to like it, but just coudn't... all this sci-fi stuff and sounds, lasers... Just not for me.
But i'm glad for you sci-fi guys, I know there are more fantasy games than sci-fi, and finally you'll get your Tabula Rasa. And there's more coming, like Huxley, Star Trek Online, Stargate Worlds and some others..

I couldn't get into AO either, but I am a biiig Sci-Fi geek.....I am also bored out of my mind with what MMO's there are out there now.
Huxley is the other one out of that list that seems promising to me...FPSMMO that seems like it'd be awesome if lag issues don't make the game unplayable.

Hi,
I am awaiting this game, because looking for "something" new into SCI-FI mmorpg's. At least, without a test it's hard to say if the game hits the requirements. Much too different are the opions about old-school MMORPG or more FPS style MMORPG's. Anyhow, hope it will have a good mix of single/group based action.

This game looks really promising, but hopefully some developer will catch sooner rather than later and put out a really solid Sci-Fi/Cyber Punk game.
There is such an untapped market for those games right now.
we have a winner

I'm glad to see the market shifting that way... A balance between fantasy and sci fi would be nice.
