*crosses palms* Please god let this game reach west before 2020!
WOW !
Is this a realistic game screenshot? I mean the water has waves,that is barely possible without a LOT of work.Then to make the sun shine/shadow effect off those waves i really do not think it is possible in gaming at this point.If it is then holy smokes i missed the boat somewhere and where do i get on because i want to ride that boat ..lol.
I assume this is just artwork the same way GW2 is hyping their game from artwork,in game is really all that matters to me,however it is a nice picture
.
I have already enjoyed what i have seen from Archeage over the past several months and i believe it is worth hyping the game.Other games are hyping very shallow gimmicks ideas,this game however has some legit ideas.My gut which is never wrong tells me this game will probably not match it's hype but at least i enjoy the effort this developer is putting into the game.
As of right now,Archeage is the ONLY game i might consider buying on release,if it releases here and i am not big on pvp at all,i just like what i see so far.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
Those water effects can be seen in games back in 2003-2004, I think Everquest 2 has that water effects and I know that Second Life has them in some areas.
they use cry engine 3 what do you expect? :P they are ingame screens as far as i know
really awesome
Ya because they are exactly the same game experience.
Well, it does look nice. But we all know that doesn't mean squat in the world of MMO's, usually the nicer the look, the worse everything else is about the game heh.
We'll see.. This one is certainly one I am waiting to see if it succeeds or not, on paper it sounds very good.
Nice screenshots! I wish there was more coverage to be had on this game. I wish it was launching this year!
Looking stunningly.
Agreed game has great potential to be really nice long-term subscription game. Really some publisher would be nice
weird that eastern games are more often made worldwide especially since the most money can be made internationally.
let me burst all your bubbles with this gameplay from ArcheAge beta:

if you see the suggested vids.. you can see this game is just for looks and the combat is pathetic.
Combat is good enough.

Kyleran: "Now there's the real trick, learning to accept and enjoy a game for what it offers rather than pass on what might be a great playing experience because it lacks a few features you prefer."
John Henry Newman: "A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault."

LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you playing an MMORPG?"
When it comes to MMORPGs I have yet to have my cake and eat it too. Something has always got to give and I hate that.
With ArcheAge the features it's boasting are enough to make me look the other way when it comes to combat. I'm tired of my MMORPG adventures being spent 75%-90% in combat.
Yay... pictures.
Combat looks good to me. I especially like the catapults and towers to go over the walls and the ship battles. Can't wait!
The ship to ship combat looks cool.

The combat looks just as good as any other MMO I've played.
The only difference is that this game isn't another WoW 2.0
looks amazing as usual. this is torture not having a western publisher yet
Yea, putting low res video with chunks of gameplay from alpha and beta clients that have graphics turned down (for stability and performance issues) , yea
Combat is good enough.
Weak trolling.
Someone is going to pick this game up.

How is this trolling .. if this is footage from the makers.. trying to sell the game... its a good looking game and very promising and such.. but combat is soo traumaticly schematic... even AOC had something more engaging.
I love the idea of sandbox and building stuff as they show in other vids.. which looks outstanding its just combat is probably going to be around 40-30% of the game.
32 degrees is colder than 40 degrees. That is a fact.
If your opinion is that something is bad, that doesn't make it in fact bad.
We get that you don't like the combat. Don't say the combat is bad, say that you don't like the combat or that you would prefer a specific combat.
English might not be your primary language. Do you understand the point I am trying to make?

Off topic bu am I the only one that thought the monster at 0:25 was an aweful lot like Barioth from Monster Hunter?

I have been loosly following Archage for a while. Nice screens. Definitely going to keep an eye on this game
Although I am not allowing myself to get hyped. I will see if it delivers first !
