Keeps and palisades in MO

Players can build not just houses and bridges but also keeps and palisades. It was patched in recently.
Check it out here. Later they will add videos during day time.

I have to admit, the game has great housing/keeps/geography, but once you get past that, there is no fun content to keep anyone enjoying the game past the 1st month. The retention rate in this game is going to be extremely low. O did I mention the lag?
GOd I can not wait until they hammer out the bugs, if it lives long enough this game will be fantastic!
LOL that is the sorriest bit of housing I've seen in a while.
Shadowbane was far more advanced, so is Darkfall, and both offered much more depth in what you could do. The doors don't even have an animation to open or close.
I'd have preferred to see it during the day so you could actually see the keep. They badly need to add some kind of static illumination and allow other players' torches to cast light.
I'd prefer to see a game that has a launcher that actually, oh I don't know, launches the game....
And isn't made by the community because the developers themselves are too inept to do it.
Shadowbane was pretty sweet in that regard.. Gankers and SB.EXE really hurt the game though.
Now MO will have gankers , NowGame.EXE , LAG , Terrible launcher AND countless bugs. If SB couldnt fend off a client error and a terrible community how can MO do it with similar issues PLUS many others?
Doesnt look good.
Great video mate ! And gratz to the guild
Looks really fine!
You can burn me, but i wont die.
Yeah! Indeed, but about FPV, it's really something you must play a bit to get used to, as it really is a major change from ordinary mmo's, but after a while it gets good

You must have seen a different video than what I did (re-checks). No, there was no mention whether you could add more buildings, furniture, equipment, etc., to a keep. Hence, making an assumption that this makes it single-handedly the worst housing every phatomed is somewhat a far-fetch. Come to think of it, I do recall that Darkfall had some hassle with keeps missing gates altogether at launch...I can understand being pissed and disappointed on game development but when this irritation clouds your judgement it might be better to take a deep breath before posting.

Fully agree.

See, you work on the premise that "it's going to come", and I work on the premise that what you see is what you get. Right now, houses and any other buildable structure are NOT customizable at ALL. You can't build a custom structure either -- you can only build static meshes that plop down on certain locations. Programatically it's not exactly a miracle to deliver that. However, to deliver the customizable housing, the ability to decorate and have a custom floorplan, make it more useful than just a static mesh for your 'e-peen' well... that takes a LOT more development skill because you have to basically create an algorithm and a UI to deliver such a task.
That's why MO is largely a simple, mindless game with no depth whatsoever. There aren't any deep systems other than crafting, but in a logical (code) sense, it's also not that impressive. Again... it's been apparent for some time that SV lacks the talent (and I think it's more managerial than anything else) to deliver what Henrik wants. It's a great example of why gamers don't necessarily make good developers. And that's why the miracle patch that they "messed up" hasn't had ONE WORD posted about it yet -- because they are running around trying to fix things they have no idea how to even properly diagnose. It's just entertaining and sad.
And isn't made by the community because the developers themselves are too inept to do it.
Trolling at its best. (clicks launcher) "Client is up to date. Ready" (clicks Play. Game Launches) Why post lies? I mean seriously? There "was" a problem with the launcher and it was literally fixed the same day. "Literally".

Really? Go look at the support forums on MO's site. People still have issues with it. The idea that if it works for you, it works for everybody is ridiculous.
And I'm not trolling by saying they didn't create their own launcher -- they simply didn't. They let a community member who's merely a fan create a huge part of their game FOR THEM. It's one thing if they got him as a consultant, but he just made it because he's a fan. Otherwise you'd still have the even WORSE launcher made by SV themselves. And we all know how well that worked.
QFT I have seen the guy you are talking about tell everyone he created it and Starvault did not say anything against it, so it must have been true. Their patcher is crappy, period.
If they can make the combat lagg free and a bit faster I will be sold. As it stands now the combat feels very slow and very laggy. Hope they sort it as we need more games like this to break the current mmo mold.
Have you heard of Xsyon?
omg this homepage ... the name shoulendt be mmorpg.com but we hatemo.com MO is a nice game and lagg is gone dont listen to the haters all
they just need a arrow ot show where they should go
Lag is gone because no one is playing open beta anymore? Makes sense to me!
First of all, it's in beta. Secondly, if you like Shadowbane so much why don't you play it? Oh wait, it folded didn't it? What a shame, you mean all those great door animations couldn't keep it going?

I say we strike all users from the site for not being MMOs.
Wish you guys would stop saying ITS A BETA! when they just released their last major content patch last week...........

OK, I'm playing this game too, but let's be honest, the launcher had problems for a LONG time. I tried everything on the forums to get it to run for the better part of two weeks and then one day it spontaniously worked. So yeah the launcher had some serious problems for a while.

Yes, which fixed some of the major bugs, some of the major BETA bugs. I don't get how you don't understand this

It broke more than it fixed

What is your issue Davmac22? Trying to receive the "biggest MO hater of the year" award or something. You spew out the hate like the game made you commit suicide and you are back from the dead. From the dead to exact your fury through mmorpg forum troll posts? I mean seriously wtf?!?!?!
Edit: Lol no sooner than i could post what i typed above, Dav had already beat me to another MO hater post. I pity you Dav.
