    Isn't that alteast abit of good info? Now we know that the beta actually is going on.

    And like Joker stated, I don't get the fuss. You haven't paid MHS anything, you are only posting on their forums and following their game. But if you read some of the posts in this thread it feels like MHS has stolen homes, cars and sisters from people.

     

    Besides, if they would release alot of info, would that make the game better in the end? No it wouldn't. It only helps you to pass the time.

     

    If you don't have the patience, I suggest stop following the game.. And check it out again when you noticed it is released.

    This is some very sound advice. I think people really need to take a step back and breathe. MHS’s project offers a lot of promises and features I’m sure everyone craves in a sandbox MMO, features that have been missing for a long time from other companies offers.


     


    As such it takes time and a hell of a lot of blood sweat and tears from all involved to release a polished functioning game. None of us want this project to fail because then we’ll have to look else where for our next MMO. Give them a chance.

    which website? 

    btw, Harabeck started showing his displeasure with delays too some months ago, but then he stopped and started to defend MHS again, so i guess he did get into beta.

    What's the point in speculating who is in beta, and who isn't?

     

    It can only harm those who are in the beta. The last beta I have been in (TCoS), testers didnt want to post anymore on the main forums when their name got discovered. Why? Because they where afraid that everything they said (opinions, speculations) where treated like insiders things, and thus almost the same like a dev statement.

     

    I don't know if that is the case to with Earthrise, but if so.. I would suggest stop guessing their names on public boards like these, before you kill your own community.

     

    Besides, if Harabeck got in beta, and he is defending MHS again.. Isn't that good? Dunno..?

    with a bit of search, you may find it

    but yeah, lets not talk about who's in or not, i agree with most of you then, lets just wait in patience on what MHS has to announce

    and yes, at least we now know a Beta is really going on by users =)

     

    So What Now?

  • M4koM4ko Member Posts: 385

    I dont really care who got into beta, its just interesting to speculate.

    2 new Sal Vitas Screenshot had been released today in their new Dev Journal Blog

    www.mpogd.com/news/?ID=6885

     

    i am not sure if they upgraded their Engine or not, but their latest Screenshot that they have been releasing looked nicer than the older ones (from 2009)

    No the sun blur/glare effect that blurs whole image with hazy veil.  Im not the only one who has negative views about MHS, your just joined the party to late to know whats up. Anyway, screenshots from beta testers show no effect of haze, and graphics look alot worse, but it could be that they jus turned down their settings,but over all they have revamped alot of stuff since 2009 so if youre talking about actual models, then yes its better.

    Right. I think I am around longer then you.. You don't even post on the main forums.

    Nor do you post really constructive. You mainly try to bash and attack MHS. Nothing wrong with that, I just want to know why.

    This is some sound advice if it was just about enjoying games that come out and not enjoying games that don't or disappoint or otherwise.  Thats true.

     

    I've made some negative comments in threads like this towards MHS communication and timeline, though its not all about venting against a game development team.  As an MMO gamer, and a long-time MMO gamer at that, I think its partially my responsibility to give feedback, both good and bad, to developmental teams.  I think Earthrise is going to fail, but not JUST because its a poorly designed game, or lacks content, or doesn't do PvP well, but because of their communication with the MMO community.

    As an MMO player, when the game goes live and it doesn't do as what MHS intended, I hope they step back and recognize the greater MMO community that has really been telling them "you're doing community management way wrong!" for the better part of 2 years.  If I'm wrong and the game is a great success, then they can say "all those nay-sayers were wrong" but my experience tells me that I won't be.  And if those same people develop games in the future, with MHS or not, I hope they carry this lesson forward, whichever its moral.  

    Its for that reason that I comment on my disappointment in the communication and development of Earthrise from MHS. 

    Above all else... never ever piss off the penguin.

    How can you know the development of Earthrise if they can't even communicate their development of Earthrise? You just pretty much contradicted yourself.

     I am with you that MHS does have poor communication and press release but they are slowly but surely being more active and releasing more information. The only thing they are missing is of course the gameplay video.  Either then that we know nothing of the current state of the game, so we can not be going around making these type of false accusations. 

    Name a game that has done pvp well on released? Name a game that has released with complete content (besides arenanet and blizzard even then they some times lack content)?  

    Poorly designed to who's standards?  Are these standards you speak of your's or are they widely accepted standards in the mmo industry that everyone goes by?

    I probably have the same amount of experience with the mmo industry but you don't see me running around saying a game is doomed. If experience teaches me anything a game does not fail until it is forced to close down, as that is the only definition of a fail. We can not judge what a success is unless we go by WoW standard or something like that.

    Yes, I do give back poor feedback but I also give back good feedback. That is the problem with the mmo industry people are so one sided. If they dislike the game even if there is positive things in the game they still call it doomed or put their all into disliking the game.  

     

    I am not trying to bash you I am just trying to get you to open your mind up a little and be a little less biased.

  • ompgamingompgaming Member UncommonPosts: 188

    The Joker2240,

     

    I should have clarified.  When I listed those game mechanics, I didn't mean to state that I think those game mechanics are broken.  You're right, I haven't seen those mechanics so I don't know if that is the case.  I was just listing them as other options as to why people think games fail.  

    I truly only know of the community management.  From that I have decided NOT to play Earthrise on release, and would so only after a thorough set of positive reviews.  That is the feedback I intended to the MHS team.

    You're also correct that a game only fails once its been closed.  As true as that is, spikes or drops in subs can cause an increase or decrease in devs on the team.  Those that have to leave the team hopefully take those lessons with them.

    but, I consede, you are right about most pre-game posters being all "doom and gloom".  I didn't intend that as my impact.  

    Above all else... never ever piss off the penguin.

    Is this game really coming out before the end of the year?

    Who knows only time will tell! I would just sit back and check every now and then on Earthrise if anything comes up. I am almost positive you will hear about it. 

  • TweFojuTweFoju Member UncommonPosts: 1,236

    well, you can always hope and wait for this 1 month for anything to happen, but it's a negative for me

    i really want to play this game, but for me personally, my realistic though is that it will be release way later after 2011

    So What Now?

    People, be patient. Game development is just like anything else, problems always arise and they must be fixed. Can't we all agree that we would rather the developers take their time and produce a balanced and polished game, as opposed to rushing release with bugs, unbalanced elements, and other things?

    Earthrise is the only true sandbox that has been developed in a great while, and if your a true sandbox fan you should give them your support, not bash them for taking the time to create a top-notch game. Be positive and supportive, not many developers have the gumption to take the risk of producing a sandbox in the current market.

    It's only understandable that someone would choose not to post on ER forums anymore. C'mon, been pretty silent over there. No big deal, let it go.

    Edit: ER is the only game (in the near future) I'm holding any hope for..l

    umm yea im complaining here, where i can have alteast some sort of freedom to express my opinions, where my posts dont get locked or deleted by Moll, for having "not" or "dont" and "Earthrise" in the same sentence, or when some forum dwelling fanboy trolls in my thread. That fat woman with no life just gets on my nerves, she bans users or deletes threads for any slight negativity. And I dont post baseless opinions or complaints, i complain about a legitimate issue that is voiced on all ER related forums, even the Bulgarian one.

    How can you say that, and write a post like that?

     

    You should take a example of Cavadus. He isnt glad with how things go, and he is keeping it polite, constructive and you can have a discussion with him.

    You, on the other hand, look like a spoiled girl who doesnt get a Barbie from their parents.
