Anarchy online is norwegian and nearly every memeber of original development team are norwegian.
They came to earl's court to show the game in 2000 and luckily I was in a university nearby doing my final year and got a pass in.Met Tore andre(one of the developers) there.For history sake AO crashed 2 times they tried to show it hehe
Anyhow I agree how did this discussion go from non north americans not been allowed in beta to talk about who did what for who in WW2.
But then again some matters are touchy which is why I responded to the fact that we were "helped" in WW2.
Before the Iraq war I went to a chat room and some americans were screaming that it does not matter if the war ir right or wrong UK owns USA for WW2 and must fight.
So you can imagine its a touchy subject with us.
So let me say this ,as far as I am concerned I love people based on their personality not what nation they come from or whatever.
Also I respect every nation's ideas but don't go knocking on my nation or I will respond.
Originally posted by bsherlock I am gonna go out on a limb here and say that this is in the most part the reason why all games are the same, and flawed. Because Americans tend to have no clue about anything. I hope this isnt insulting to too many people but the majority of Americans dont care about anyone who isnt American, therefore beta isnt released anywhere else and they dont care, also the games are catered to the American market, and thus what anyone else wants does not really matter. What is needed is a non-american company with a HUGE budget to try and produce an MMORPG. Dislaimer: i have no idea how many MMORPG's are made by Americans and non-Americans alike. The above may be my opinion and maybe not.
Muahahahahahahaha
Wow. Not out on a limb but rather out of your tree. But then that's just my opinion. But I will excuse you because you are either (1) very ignorant or (2) too lazy to find out the truth.
More like out of his mind if you ask me.
Muhahahahaha!! Anyway, there are plenty of Canadian developers out there. Why aren't they making MMORPG games? If they are, why aren't you signing up for Beta on those games? Is it because American's MMORPG are more hyped and played by more people? I don't know. If your disappointed in not being able to get on Beta Testing for U.S. games, then move to the U.S. We have plenty of trees for you to live in.
Why are we talking about a war that took place 50+ years ago in a gaming forum LOL..
People love glamourizing War, and wrapping themselves in the flag. Who gives a S***?.
AO was developed by Europeans...and to my way of thinking a European mindset. Thats both good and bad. When i say European mindset im referring to the tendancy that Europeans are more team/group based players, and U.S players are more solo/individualistic....this is a very general rule, but ive seen it play out time and time again...
AO makes teaming/grouping pretty much compulsory at the highest lvls so with that in mind...id say its of European design...(Norwegian actually)
But to the point...ya it would be nice if everyone outside the U.S and Canada were recognized as actually existing...but then again, im sure its a legal issue....The E.U id imagination would be an absolute mindfield to navigate for U.S companies.
Bump! for more European games...as long as they dont involve compulsory grouping and endless camping like AO currently does.
Woah sorry to cause such aggro people, was in a mood at the time and take it all back, i am deleting the original post, so sorry to all you Americans who got offended in any way (What a big wuss i am )

Actually, no one knows this, but texas singlehandedly won every major war in the history of the world, even before there was a texas!

I believe anyone can enter the Risk Your Life and City of Heroes contests...correct?
Also note that as far as the Ryzom contest is concerned...almost all of Europe can enter the open beta...that is why the rules are the way they are...
