It would be so nice an indie would come up with a great game. The big problem I see is that they don't have even close to the staff to implement all these ideas of theirs. I think most of you are in for a major disappointment.
Better to be surprised than get your hopes up only to have them dashed again.
i like how it says "music by" at the end like it was something special.... the music was absolutely fucking horrible. it was completely off beat and just bad.
game is looking pretty horrible
You're serious huh? Ok, besides the music, and keeping in mind this is alpha footage, what, exactly is looking horrible? I ask because even though I am not the biggest fan of this game, I feel it is only honest to say it is looking very well done and probably one of the best MMO's I have seen in the last 5 - 6 years at a minimum. So please, point out what the majority of people posting here are missing.
You need to stop making sentences as if they are a matter of 'fact' it is and will always be your opinion. That other guy doesn't like the music, that's 'his' opinion. So, don't get so defensive about this game if you believe it to be your holy grail.
Personally, I think the game has 'potential' presently, but, I shall reserve my opinion when it has some footage of the game out of the alpha/beta stage.
Not sure what you think a "fact" is but when someone says "it's the best looking game I'VE seen in the last 5-6 years".....that's pretty obviously opinion.
The post he quoted pretty much said "this game sucks" and he asked for more details as to why. I think when you watch a trailer and think wow this looks really good, and see most of the other posters saying the same it's a fair question to ask when someone posts it's crappy.

What makes you assume that "these ideas of theirs" aren't already implemented into the alpha builds already?
Personally, getting my hopes up for an MMO is a rare treat these days. My backer donation and involvement thus far has been the most fun I've had with an MMO in years and I haven't even played this game yet.
And if you're right and my hopes are dashed, well... that pretty much sums up most of my other MMO experiences. So I don't see any issue.

They have yet to implement much of what they talk about. Yes they could be extremely efficient developers and get all that stuff in, but not so far, most of it is just placeholders. I do wish they all the luck in the world in getting that stuff implemented, but reality says they have a difficult road ahead.

Maybe you have some insider knowledge or access to the game in a way that I do not. So I have no way to know for certain what is and what is not implemented. I agree, it will be difficult. Not just for the implementation, but also the maintenance.
This game cannot come soon enough. Finally, a game that will promote a true community. I'm just hoping the world is as large, or larger than SWG. Exploration and crafting worked very well in SWG and I hope to be doing a lot of both, which a side of PvP.
Why does every sci-fi game need to put in melee combat. Does everyone expect that suddenly ranged weapons stop being more effective than close combat ones?

The video made me less want to contribute. Graphics are not very impressive, and that's all that's in the video. Other gameplay videos shows the clichéd interface. Hotbars with cooldowns.

That is simply not true. As has been stated repeatedly, all of those features on the Kickstarter features list is already in alpha testing.
Looks much improved over the earlier videos. I'll be trying this one for free and hoping they can get the combat and crafting to be engaging and fun.

I love the comments on the video only(gfx sux, game looks so so). Go read up about the game guys...do better. If these guys can put in 1/3 of what they talking about this will be the go to game for sandbox/sandpark fans. I would love to hear about what sandbox MMO these people are currently playing that is sooo great that this game looks meh.

I'm sure a few million people said the same thing about WOW and look at it now. Look at the game has to offer gameplay wise, it's not your average WOW clone. Nothing out there comes close right now in the sandbox area of mmos. Hate to keep posting this but I know some of you don't bother reading other peoples post https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bOvmzd6bGHU screw the graphics, look at the features.

Both are important. Good graphics create immersion. While the game has some nice EVE like fundamentals, im not fond of the interface. Maybe there isn't any other way to do it, which is why everyone does it. Ill certainly try it when its out, but I need to try before I give them money.

Try solving a fist fight with a rocket launcher.

How about a pistol or shotgun instead?

I can not remember winning or losing a single debate on the internet.
This game looks so-so wait and see how it pans out. I am not going to fork any money out for now though.
