Just one thing. He does say its free, but what he fails to mention is that he wants to charge $6.00/mo (see his post in devs corner). I don't mind doing work on a project if it is going to be totally free, but if you expect people to code your work, then publish the game, and you make money from monthly fees, then yes, you do have a screw lose.

Hey, im new to this topic but this game seems like a very fun game, despite what TheWarc flames you with, i think it looks really good, you are obviously very dedicated to this project.
If i new C++ than i would help, but i know nothing about programming, but in college im gunna try to learn some, and maybe even before that.
Keep the images coming and ill be here when they do ^_^
Look, impressive screen shots... I can code a game, even a game engine. I have over 100 games under my belt. But I still think you are in over your head man. How many players are you going to try and host at any given time? How big is yur world? Do you have a basic world designed and saved as a file?? Do you have ALL the mobs, guns, bullets, char animations already built?
I don't know if you know what your doing man..... I mean, making a game is not easy. Programming is not easy . . . i don't know if you thought this throughly
It's great that they have this idea(even tho its not even clost to my cup of tea), these kind of things always fail and its a waste of board space. If any startup free MMORPG/FPS whatever was ever gonna work it would prolly have to be set up by a team of professionals who know how to make aleast alittle bit of sense.
Now i'm sure if MMORPG.com ever wanted to make a free open source MMORPG project they would prolly have alot of success. ORGANIZATION is the key word, not just someone at the top who doesn't know what they doing spouting orders.

How big is yur world? 500-1000... its easy i have "Maxisat" server net its 8T Do you have a basic world designed and saved as a file?? It is not big yet, i have only that city produced now (for those pics) Do you have ALL the mobs, guns, bullets, char animations already built? I have few mobs built, not all. Guns, yeah nearly all. Bullets, all. Char anims, none (i cant do char anims myself, but i buy from net them) Mail me if you want to join my "Darkened Employees" team To MMORPG.com mail We can talk more then, bye for now. - Zaxtor
You need alot more than programmers, an excellent skinner or two, a few top notch modelers would do you a world of good. Secondly, you *really* need to get your own website if you wish to look professional. A good webmaster would probally be a wise call also.

Someone tries to make a free MMO and all you people can do is tell him he will fail and his ideas, screens are crap? Give me a break.
Good luck with the game lotharr!

Have you thought about using the nel engine?

Just let this thread die
HOW many times are you going to CHANGE the title to this thread? Seems that it has changed between 5 to 10 times ALREADY!
Give it a rest.
You are very optimistic if you think that you are going to get this job done in a year!
There is a REASON that Apogee/3dRealms uses the motto:
Next question is HOW many projects like this have you worked on?
I'd bet the answer is NONE!
Time to let this thread die... Please continue this thread in the OTHER post you started in the Developers Corner!
