Anyone else?

squeee · July 2003

Anyone else think this game is concentrating a little too much on the economy?

Anyone else think the way you will battle for cities is lame? (You dont storm a castle or lay siege to the city, you fight in an arena, and you can hire others to fight for you.)

Anyone else sad that they can't play as a dragon?

There I used the forum, happy?

They are not concentrating on the economy at all really, they need this type of economy to explain most of what they are doing. The economy is what will define the world and the different empires, some will have materials others do not and so trade between cities will grow.

This is great because the game almost ends up as being both an mmorpg and a simulation compared to other titles such as Star Wars Galaxies where getting items to craft can be done easily be anyone.

The city battles isn't the best way to do it, but its the most functional, it promotes people making their own clans instead of having a few humongous clans such as Shadowbane where they end up owning most of the world.

They've said from day 1 that you would not be able to play a dragon, this aint Horizon.

this game will still own

actually the more i think about it the more i want city battles.

RiverWood · August 2003

I was under the notion that battle for cites did take place at the city under attack. You probably were think of Blood Circus competitions.

I'll try to find a link where they explain more about city sieges.

only thing i don't liike is the limit of 20 people from each town

Djin · August 2003

If that's true about the twenty people from each town, then you know it's only going to be the strongest tanks and best healers...

yea it kinda sucks, they say its to stop the server from crashing but oh well, it jus desn't seem fair to those casual players

chrisrow · August 2003

my bro has the beta and even now the game looks VERY promising

, alot of work needs to be done tho and being 3 weeks behind schedule doesnt help

squeee · August 2003

I wish every game was just 3 weeks behind schedule. That is pretty good for a MMOG. Anyone else mad Half-Life2 has been pushed back?

My software never has bugs. It just develops random features.
Why doesn't DOS ever say "EXCELLENT command or filename!"

Customer: "How fast will my COM ports go?"
Tech Support: "How hard can you throw your computer?"

converge · August 2003

im happy that it got pushed back because iw ouldnt have the money in time

Lunar_Knight · September 2003

My thoughts too. I want quality, not quantity.

BTW, anyone know when open beta is?

porkas · September 2003

open bet will probably coem in one or two months and the only thing taht seams to be wrong about this game is the 20 player limit

"Only the good die young so I'd rather stay evil"

Lunar_Knight · September 2003

One of the scenarios I fear is people in big clans aren't going to get to PvP much. Even really good players in the clan are going to get the back seat in city combat because UberKing (the clan chief) only wants the top leaders in his clan and his friends to help in the siege. Thus you can see many players losing interest in the game because their clan was snubbing them from PvP.

It kind of sounds like the Dragon Empires is set up so there are 100s of smaller clans then 10s of large 100+ ppl clans.

Which would be all right, expect that there would be so many it would be confusing at best to remember who's who.

porkas · September 2003

true when the limit is at 20 there is no need for a clan to have more than 50 members since no more than one of your citys can't be attacked at the same time

DE should be a pretty good game if they polish up the human skirmisher by giving him some more "warrior like" skills.

well if they did that he wouldn't be a skirmisher, instead he would be a warrior

Conjurer sounds like a fun class. If they still plan on doing the whole classeless charater thing like they said they would...I'll probably play a conjurer, unlock the character thingie, then make a human fighter/conjurer.

porkas · October 2003

hmm we are quite of the subject now, but who cares.
fighter/conjurer you say, like a paladin of some sort or?

"Only the good die young so I'd rather stay evil"

Lunar_Knight · October 2003

no, more like a Hunter from DAoC(Midgar kingdom), but with better armor and stronger magic...and swords not spears...well sort of like a hunter anyway.

porkas · October 2003

k, I played a hunter in daoc

"Only the good die young so I'd rather stay evil"

Lunar_Knight · October 2003

I only played it till my hunter was about level 9, but I thought the class was fun.

I guess I just like the idea of being a warrior with a long sword and having a wolf fight with you. Wolves make cool pets...

So whats the plan for your character porkas?

porkas · October 2003

I have been thinging of shadow scout, but if it's possible to have pets in de then I would probably be a conjourer

"Only the good die young so I'd rather stay evil"

Lunar_Knight · October 2003

off the topic but I feel kind of insulted be called an apprentice member

anyway...when this game starts we are going to have to start on the same server

porkas · October 2003

well where are you from, cuz I will probably play on the european server
