Where's this gem been hiding?!?!

Seriously, this game looks like it has some promise to it!  Only game I was really looking forward to was AoC.  I'm really, really tired of the Autoattack crapola that is out there.  I guess I can take that back, autoattack is ok under some circumstances(mainly PVE stuff).  If you want to excel at PvE or PvP, then you need to do more than  autoattack though.  Another thing I really like is, no auto-target.  This game will have more of the Gunz Online feeling.  Instead of just targetting someone and sticking, you have a chance to get someone tied up on something trying to chase you down.  With auto-target you end up getting /assist trains going on too, which sucks.  Just the fact of removing the auto-target makes the game a lot more skill based.

I like the idea of these skilldecks too.  It gives you options, but with consequences.  Not all the time will you have the best setup for a certain situation, but maybe on down the bars you have something they aren't setup for as well.  Gives some good diversity and still the freedom to the players to choose what they want and what caters more to their playstyle. 


Hope the devs can keep the path.


Guess now, added another to upcoming hopefuls.

    Hope it gets some more attention they deserve, they don't have the budget to advertise like EA and Blizzard.

    Heh, I'm sure it'll get the attention it deserves.  It'll prob be OB before many folks know about it.  Also want take long for some of the DAoC refugees to pick up on it.  I figure alot of those people will like it, since it is more action oriented.  Will grab some WoW folks too, I imagine.

    If they can come through on the combat, this game want have any problems surviving.

    Combat system sounds wicked! A bit like that mmo euro scifi mmo, can't remember the name tho. You had to aim on your own and so on.

    time and in game playinmg will tell.  Archlord looked nice but was
    not nice at all

    he says "hiding" because when you think about all the game conventions, this game hasn't exactly showed up very much. Especially considering that the devs say they want it out Q4 2006, yet it's 2 months away from December and I haven't seen anything in gaming magazines about it. Either way, it does look pretty cool. I like the graphics/theme and it looks like it's adding new things.

    Dont know about you, but Ive been dropping this name to my friends and guilds in DAoC and WoW.  Looks like a hell of lot more skill based then either one of those said games.  There are a lot of people who have run the gamit in WoW and are looking for a new game this winter.  Best the devs release the game soon, perhaps pre-thanksgiving would be a good idea.
