To me it seems like a cross between Starship Troopers (the movie) meets an updated Anarchy Online. I dont know who came out with it 1st, but I do see some similairites with TR and SWG NGE twitch base.

    Wishful thinking:

    If Funcom didnt do AOC , but instead Anarchy Online 2 - with combat gameplay of TR

    now that would be a dream game

     

    And p.s

    Yes TR is very much Starship Troopers inspired

    Starship Troopers + Aliens.

    No elves in tights makes me happy :)

    Agreed, maybe with a little predator mixed into the pot?

    I dunno...

    Tools + Logos + Weapons... RPG with FPS like game play/combat in Tabula Rasa...

    Omni tool/engineering powers + Biotics + Weapons... RPG with FPS like game play/combat in Mass Effect...

    reminds me a LOT of Mass Effect.

    Click down the mouse wheel for the over the shoulder zoom mode and it's just like Mass Effect.

    The story and setting are different obviously, but in terms of game play Tabula Rasa reminds me of a massive multiplayer version of Mass Effect..

    Which kind of sucks because I'm hoping for a Mass Effect Online, but if it's just like TR what's the point?

    Yes TR is very much Starship Troopers inspired  indeed on topic....agree, also the Art Production Director Victor Meinert and Art Director John Mueller felt the same way
    John Mueller: The current look is inspired by films like Aliens and Starship Troopers. It's the kind of story you might find in 2000AD. I love European comics too - they take science fiction very seriously - stepping off an Allied Free Sentients drop ship on a mysterious alien planet with the most advanced weaponry known to man... its Bane-killin' time! http://rpgvault.ign.com/articles/819/819442p2.html

    What it first reminded me of, what it still reminds me of, what it will always remind me of.

    Star Wars Galaxies, but in a good way. NGE style, only it doesn't suck :D

    TR reminds me of SWG (the original good version) in the skill-building and class-oriented goal. It also reminds me of Auto Assault where there's a lot of sh*t going on all around you (lots of action). It reminds me of Ryzom, in that the creatures/animals seem to react to you and other creatures/animals and have their own habits.

    Reminds me of an endless/mindless grind fest! TR should be repackaged and redone!

    I imagine TR as being what the world was like thousands of years before Anarchy Online.

    I'm most reminded of KOTOR.  It's basically focused on immersion, fun and little storyline quests that are very much like the old RPGs (not MMOs, i'm talking about BG, Fallout, etc.)

    Gameplay is like KOTOR only with more focus on gun use and less on "force" use.

    The crouching and watching for cobat distance does remind me of SWG a bit, but it's very different otherwise.   I don't know, I think if KOTOR was a multiplayer game, it would play exactly like TR.
