in Fallen Earth
When Fallen Earth is finally out, what type of charector will you be playing RP wise?
I think I will be sticking to my traditional Soldier styled RP with a bit of a twist. I tend to play as a friendly, reasonable, honarable yet mysterious charector with a sense of humor. The humor part doesnt work unless its t my expense.

I tend to Rp either the naive youngster or someone who is fallen.
I think with fallen Earth it will most likely be the later. Someone who was once a revered fighter who has gave that life up long ago. Now he is beginning to realize sometimes you do have to stand up and fight, running from your past will not solve anything.
...if that makes sense?
Little intro before my play style.
Sup people just subscribed here because of this game. I have been looking for a game like this for a while now (since I have been into MMOG's) and stumbled apon there website. FPS yay MMOG yay FAST PACE REALISTIC PLAY yay. I'm into all of that. I have looked into FOM (Face of Mankind) played for a few hours and meh. Couldn't play that any longer. Going to try Neocron 2 here in a few day's but it doesn't look that promising, and now I want to try this. I had a small discussion with the Vise President of development about tech support and and advertisement and this game looks very promising. Anywho here is my playstyle.
I'm going to be mostly a loner, already seeing the world as we know it fail I will trust only a select few people that I will meet on my journy of figuring out why we are here and alive. I will be very quiet and sneaky yet you wouldn't want too find yourself in my crosshairs as I will be known (even being non social you will hear of me). Exploring the foundation of life, the future, and the land we walk apon, there will still be the biggest goal of my existance. Survival!
Oo.. More meat for the grinder eh? Nah! Cool RP dude. Its getting interesting, two people actually responded, lets keep it comming people and keep this forum alive!
Thanks for spaming the borads Delgado (just kidding
).
I would try and play the "rebuilding civilization" role. Setting up and guarding caravans, building towns, then setting up a corrupt government where I and the other leaders make a ton off of taxes and the like. If I did make a town, I'd set it up along a trade route so people would have to pass through it.

I'm a powergamer.
I'll just be creating the most combat efficient character I can.

I used to be very interested in this game but I then got the impression that it wasn't a FPS but was more pointy-clicky. Has it been confirmed that it is a FPS???
I am still a little disappointed by the prospect of "magic" in the form of psionics being in the game if that is also true. But I guess they need to attract the fantasy players somehow.
I think an FPS style fits with Post-Apoc much better than any other style, so it will be good news if it is that.
In game I would probably either go for my holistic detective character or my wandering preacher.

1. Its going to be an FPS game, no point and click here. Skills will come from the player, not from leveling up.
2. They are emphasizing on mutants and such. Therefore magic is not magic in that sense, its more mutant powers, like the Mutant X comic strip. Also, they will be emphasizing more on making you faster/stronger/heal faster and such so dont worry. There wont be any Summon Overlord Demons or raise zombies or casting of gay ass rooting spells. Not that it aint fun or anything but it has no place in this type of game.
3. If you have a wandering preacher, plz PLZ dont preach to me! Save me from my day to day fate of Jehovas Witnesses. Mind you I dated one before, wasnt to popular with her mom either if you catch my drift...
Hey everybody.
I'm not sure that is 100% accurate Delgado. I mean it's difficult to tell at this point with only slim details of any type of combat system. I, like everyone I'm sure have seen various references to FPS skills; however, I've not seen anything that assured me there would be "no point click here". I've seen both play styles referred to in multiple articles.
Just my opinion here but I think we're better off at this point knowing (because we've been told) that while there will probably be elements of pointy clicky play, it doesn't sound like they're creating another turn base melee game (i.e. UO, EQ). Like wise, while there will be elements of FPS combat, it doesn't sound as though they are creating a standard FPS (i.e. MoH, Doom). It sounds to me as though they are trying to create something pretty unique and we should look for more information before making concrete assumptions.
Personally, while I'm anxious to learn more about a system that combines both elements of game play, I'm honestly hoping it doesn't drift too far towards an FPS. I would just prefer it didn't end up Half Life on a giant map.

Well, I highly doubt it'll be completely balanced, every single person has as much chance as the next guy to win, combat. Some builds will obviously have an advantage. And that's what I'm good at, and enjoy, is figuring out those superior builds, then using them to kick ass in PvP :P

To get back on topic.
I'd love to play a raider type. Leather armor, tattoo's, mohawk. Attack towns and Rape, pillage, and kill the citizens...ya know, not a "good guy".
Hopefully I could find some likeminded people and start up a raiding party...better protect those small towns good.

Im not 100% sure how combat is going to be either. One thing I am sure about is it WONT be point and click nor will there be ANY poitn and click. This has been mentioned alot in interviews done before MMORPGs interview. The game is pretty much an MMOFPS. I believe he stated that it will be an MMORPG with FPS as combat. Yuo will be able to walk around like and FPS genre and combat like one. This hints towards Neocron as a basis on combat but they arent 100% sure yet.
Ever played Face of Mankind? Its not the best game in the world, yet... But FA will pretty much be like FoM in the sense of movement and combat. No point and click here at all. That Im sure of...
Yeah your right. But if I remember correctly, the final lighting, textures and combat system wasn't even implemented into the movie clip. You probably all will remember them talking about smooth fluid motions in regards to taking out a weapon from their backs. I do believe that this is being classed as one of the new age mmo's that use FPS as a standard, not point and click. Could be wrong but I really think Icarus would of said something confirming that it is point and click, not talk only about it being an FPS and even hint towards it being like Neocron. But I could be wrong..
I'll be the sort of guy that despises these sorts
As a tech, i'm going to be an optimistic revolutionary, someone who wants to bring humanity back to it's former glory while retaining some of the lessons learnt by the fall- IE, utopian qualities.
I'll prolly be a go-to guy for lost technology and all sorts of stuff the preaching radicals are going to be cursing, friendly enough, but with no tolerance for barbaric behavior (IE- Raiding
)
ill probably be the guy who uses psionics if there included unless there just like defense ups and crap like that so if that is what psionics is for then ill probably be the guy you see walkin around with a chain gun or a rocket launcher
although rocket launchers might be considered cheating i still think it would be funny to watch someone walkin around with a goiant bazooka or sumtihn to that effect
Wow, this looks like exactly what I've been wanting in the MMORPG genre for years now! I could do without the 'magic' but I'll live with it so long as the rest of the features are as great as they are being hyped to be.
Well, my idea for a character is a survivalist type thats coming out of his bunker/small community to help make the world a better place for his family. Hope to start out by building my own home/bunker along a major trade route.
Then turn the home into a farm/mine/oil well type location. With its proximity to the common trade lanes and a constant output of some type of resource I'll establish a trading post. If successful then hopefully a full settlement could grow up around it.
In the end the goal would be to have a brand new outpost in the game world which produces some of its own resources with surplus for trade, a major trade center, and by providing the resources and security of a large established player community we would be able to draw in the scientist/tech types that are looking for a safe place to invent (or re-invent) the better game equipment.
Oh and Hi, this is my first post
I've always been the Ranger type. One who lives off the land, memorizes his surroundings, figures out how the creatures move and how best to avoid fighting them unless it's necessary. And I see that there will be dual pistols
. I'm huge John Woo fan so that will deffinitely be my fighting style.
Also about the FPS issue, I'm not exactly sure how it will work, but in one of the articles (I think it was the Warcry article) they said it reminded them of Neocron. Which is pretty much a total first person shooter. Though I was never fond of the sluggish pistol fighting. It was easier to hunt with a grenade launcher. Hopefully they improve upon the idea.
Kingdane
Since I am new and all - and this is the only game why I subscribed to this site's forum.
I will probably go with what someone said above. "Rebuilding Civilization" at maximum profit. Build, a House, Build a Pub, Build a Vilage - then build a town where everyone has to come to get stuff and pay me for the garbage that is really precious.
Oh... and once the town is big, or big enough - build bigger town with allot of guns so I can shoot anyone I dont like from 10 clicks away.
I agree... "rebuilding civilization" will be fun.
Derida, you and me should start up our own town
. We could get King Dane to find a good place for it, have Delgado and some of the other warriors defend it (Delgado could be in charge of that), have Andy_French work on the tech, and could even work with Lockmart so that his trading post and our town both prosper. Yes, I can see it all now.....
