    Well lets see its looking great. But i do concure that most game i play that are just  Hot key tapping games can get boring quiet quick. And the FPS ones i do like better of corse i playes Neocron 1 and Neocron 2 For ever and it was a blast. But its not even out yet so untell i can check the game out personally im contionualy geving it a Go. But so far for a Sci-fi MMO im waiting on Fallen Earth,Divergence, Startrek Online, But Still Holding Hope For Earthrise. So keep on going for the gold.

    I agree.

     

    This doesn't tell anything. I don't think this is the place to comment other games.

     

    on the countary, the game just lost a potential customer, I was hyped bout this game.. till I saw their "slower RPG based combat" I might be wrong but that looked really boring. I wont say WoW in a Sci fi world because I know theres a lot of differences still.. with that UI and boring animations it tickles my mind..

    It just looked dull and boring from the vid, thats it, if thats major or pointless its relative and subjective.

    It tells everything and nothing, either theres a fanboy defending his precious or.. he/she/it just thought it was crap and so meantioned a competeter which I myself will pay more attention to now then before I saw the vid, I think thats very relavant to the disscusion

     

    Papa, you are making a good point that games should be compared. Well after seeing this:

    www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/126/view/videos/play/1357/Fallen-Earth-Dance-Video.html

     and this:

    www.fallenearth.com/showvideo.php

    No thanks, I will stick to Earthrise for the time being. In fact the second video is I think the first Fallen Earth video just like the one of Earthrise which was posted several weeks ago. Lets see what Earthrise gameplay videos are coming in the future and some Earthrise game reviews and then decide. It is too early to tell.

    As ER will be out 6months after FE I will probably try both. FE seems to have more of the elements I am looking for but I will not know until I try both. I was just stating that, at the moment,  FE looks like a better game... my opinion only.

    it is true that we should wait for final judgement till both games have atleast entered its last stage of beta but... I was referring to the dullness and plain empty and shallow gameplay which we saw  in the video wether or not its the correct picture of gameplay remains to be seen but in my eyes fallen earth just took a great leap.

    As for the videos in liks your showing me.. I believe one is made as a joke so dont know why you would compare those two videos, there are a lot of videos on youtube on fallen earth and to me it looks like itl be a lot more fun.

    Is this a fanboy reply?

     

    No, not a fanboy reply. I was just giving some video comparisons. In fact Fallen Earth is close to release and it is normal to have most features and graphics complete. Earthrise just entered closed beta and release date is not very clear. What I see from their forums, the devs listen to the community and I am certain they will make the necessary changes. I think final decisions about a game should be made when it is out not when it is just enetering beta.

    Those videos were about 90% too long thanks to captain obvious giving us the walkthrough. 

    Equipment has stats!

    You can't use shooting abilities with a sword!

    Classes use different armor!

    Stances are on all the time! (repeated this twice in a multi paragraph explination...)

    Thanks for the 101 on every MMO in existance Captain!

    That being said, in addition to this looking like yet another bland gear grinding clone with the slight imporvement of being able to select which skills you improve, the animations look terrible. I was going to chalk it up to the level of development its in, until he mentioned it was closed beta. I don't care that it's turn based, I care that the character jerks back and forth between firing and suddenly standing perfectly strait, and that he does basically a very slow twist dance to shoot three bullets and return to attention. 

    Overall, I didn't have much hope for the game to begin with, but this is certainly not looking promising.

    Bans a perma, but so are sigs in necro posts.

    Here are some more "obvious" things:

    The zone we see is The Nest, it will follow the tutorial zone - did you know that?

    There are 5 equipment slots - did you know that before?

    There are 270 abilities in Earthrise  - isn't it obvious?

    Combat skill points are needed for advancement - maybe you are from the dev team and know that too.

    You have 2 tactic slots for ability - I guess you know that too

     

    What surprises me is that you don't know something - You say Earthrise is class based - Wrong - it is skill based, sorry.

    *sigh* Fanboys. Did I say it explained NOTHING? No, I didn't. My point was they spent FAR too much time overexplaining trivial BS than the points above. Everything you mentioned, completely glossed over! The fact that you need a gun to use gun abilities? He apparently could write a small noveletta on that. And twist it however you want, he named four classes during the video, and while you might not be locked into those rolls forever, the classes exist. Yes, you get to switch up and buy your skills, but they clearly have archtypes in mind.

    Based on the short gameplay video it looks liek its gonna play similar to hellgate london.  It's still to early to say anything for certain but the gameplay looks very similar.

    Make games you want to play.
