    Earthrise was the first one that came to mind for me too. I believe the devs have made comments that they very much intend to make it sandbox. I'll see if I can find some posts or interviews from them.

    About choked on my soda, hell of a fix job.

    Out of every 100 men, 10 should not be there,
    80 are nothing but targets, 9 are the real fighters.
    Ah, but one, ONE of them is a warrior,
    and he will bring the others home.

           If SWG is a sandbox , still  ( it was one of the greatest), then WoW is a sandbox aswell.

    If the current SWG is not a sand box then neither is FE.

    Fallen Earth should not be on the list.

    At best it's a hybrid themepark with minor sandbox elements.

    Fallen Earth should be removed from the list imo, it just isn't sandboxy enough.

    Perpetuum should be added. In closed beta but big additions are being put in atm.

    I would consider AC1 more of a hybrid MMO. It's themed and the dungeons don't change. Still a player can train a character any way he wishes. All skill paths are open to him.

     lol ac 1 is more of a open game then any listed. and yes dungeons to change and the game adds new content every month.

     

    In Ac you choose the way you want to play... hell you could lvl by gambling all day and making cookies...

    Tis true, wouldn't put FE (much as I love it) on a sandbox list, everything about it is hybrid - from targetting on up (fps aiming with rpg damage rolls) to basic design (not-railed, themepark/sandbox, not ffa PvP, no death penalty worth worrying about etc. etc.).

    Saying it's a sandbox will make many people think Darkfall or Mortal Online, and FE isn't like either of them. It's sandboxy for a themepark, but it's no sandbox.

    I'm not dissing the game btw, I love its genetically spliced mutant version of MMO-dom, just don't want people expecting something from it it can't deliver, applying the sandbox label will do that.

    Lets start the semantics war!

    FE isnt a sandbox, Im calling it a junkyard. Which is better, you can create a lot more out of junk then from sand and it relates to FE typical scavenging, where the next pile of junk can hold the treasure that you are seeking :p

    But not Kingman junkyard with those ever-spawning dogs.....or one of the ones that is exclusively populated by hermit crabs:

    "SKREEEEEEEE!" and there goes your horse, your mutt and anything else in the vicinity with a pulse.....

    Apart from that, junkyard sounds cool  ;  )

    Of course its not True. Unless you define truth as whatever you guys come up with. Everyone has their own definition of words like MMORPG and sandbox. There is absolutely no concensus about those words.

    It is ridiculous to state your opinion about the definition of these words as fact.

    Some of you also cant grasp the idea that you can have a sandbox (whatever definition) with so called themepark elements.
