APB MMO... MMOrpg.com Drop the ball or something?

DeaconXDeaconX Member UncommonPosts: 3,062

I've been hearing about this game for a pretty long while now, yet MMORPG.com still hasn't listed it? Hmm...

Ah well, it's called All Points Bulletin and it's WebZen's flaship game for North America... basically Grand Theft Auto style Cops VS Robbers mmo with amazing customization from the guy who CREATED Grand Theft Auto.

Here's an interview: www.ogaming.com/data/3525~APB.php

Trailer: www.gametrailers.com/game/1878.html

Why do I write, create, fantasize, dream and daydream about other worlds? Because I hate what humanity does with this one.

BOYCOTTING EA / ORIGIN going forward.

    Ive never heard of it.

    People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.

  • EnigmaEnigma Member UncommonPosts: 11,384

    I cant get much other information on it.....I even googled the hell out of it.  What I did find isnt much though....just a few reviews here and there and the screenshots aren't screenshots...they're desktop media arts.

    I would assume they would want to make themselves known because my name pulled more google results than this game...and thats pretty bad

    MMORPG.com doesn't have a professional team who get paid to scour the web for obscure games.

    If you think a game should be on their list, submit it to them: http://www.mmorpg.com/faq.cfm/showFaq/4

    What I know so far

    1: its a cops vs gangs kind of game

    2: Its made by the creator of the original Grand theft Auto and by the company behind the Xbox360 game Crackdown

    3: Its using the Unreal 3 engine.

    4: Its published by Webzen (I think)

    Did you Google 'All Points Bulletin'? If so that wasn't very good since that's a police term.  'All Points Bulletin MMO' on the other hand, that's the winning ticket.

    Apparently it's slated for 2008 and will be on the Xbox 360.

    actually some of the staff is looking forward to APB.  it won't be missed once it passes the guidelines.

    I find it amazing that by 2020 first world countries will be competing to get immigrants.

  • DeaconXDeaconX Member UncommonPosts: 3,062

    Oh that's good stuff! Donno how you know that but it's cool.  Of course the fact that it's a 360 title means I'm pretty much done with the game since I'm a pc gamer and don't really care much for consoles... buy another computer for JUST games? Nah it's cool.. thanks though. Have fun.

    To each their own!

    In order to be listed, a developer/publisher must submit X amount (not sure the exact number) of EXCLUSIVE screenshots and meet some other criteria.  To be honest I am shocked ANY of Webzen's games are listed as they cannot seem to get them made.

    The staff probably have other accounts so that they can post what they actually want to say, argue with people, and lock threads after they get the last word in.

    well its know for some time... problem is webzen isnot shouting at all....Sun, Huxly, APB etc.... all were to be here already or run in 2007 ...lol..

    I'm very intrigued by APB, I heard about it quite a while ago, but still haven't gotten much info on it.

     

    Although if I remember correctly, it'll be for the xbox 360 AND PC.

  • Keebs1984Keebs1984 Member Posts: 1,356

    Game looks neat.

    I was a BIG fan of Crackdown on the 360 so I am glad to see the same company working on another game.

    Eternally mine,

    I think that is inaccurate.  I find it refreshing that a developer stays out of the press and media till they actually have something to say about a game.  I found their absence from E3 rather amusing.  Let them stay busy with making the games and when they are done I am sure you will see press releases.  Huxley is another game from them that looks damn good.  They have the money to make these games quality.  I think many people will be pleasantly surprised when they release.

    Other games not on these forums are: Vendetta and Infinity. Both are good games ahead of their times.

    rofl, they should, a site that claims to be dedicated to MMO's should seriously be upto date on.. MMO's.

    I find myself going to other sites mroe frequently for useful info.

    lol @ Webzen...Huxley was originally supposed to be out in 2006. Here it is in 2007, where hordes of people are drooling over a quality FPS MMO concept, and there is zilch information about a solid launch date for this pushed back and delayed MMO. Lord knows when the hell this game will be released- Im thinking fall 2008....

    I plan to google these titles as soon as I post this, but just in case I'm unsuccessful, could you post links to those games websites?

    Welcome to software development.  They may have shown working concepts of huxley in 2006.. but it wasn't even predicted to be released that early.  You are misinformed. 

    Yes, fall of 2008 or early 2009 are probably realistic release dates.

    Why are gamers so quick to bash companies for taking their time to make a quality game?
