TheHiveLeader takes a first look at the early access version on Project Genom, an indie sci-fi MMO. Project Genom is a sci-fi MMORPG set in a beautiful alien world rendered through the power of Unreal Engine 4 with a heavy emphasis on non-target combat and planetary exploration. Witness fascinating xeno flora in the sunset of three stars on the planet of Avalon or fight the agressive and bizarre alien wildlife. Maybe you’ll discover how to use the planet's resources to create technologica

    Had my eye on this for a while, looks like a great game when it is finished! As always hive good show!

    Hmmm this was totally not on my radar, however I find myself stragely drawn to Hive vids.

    The real question is which game is it going to be?

    Project Genom?
    The Repopulation?
    Divergence?

    My experience with Repop (as a Early backer who checked in from time to time) is that the game is laboriously complex (crafting) and just way to floaty... The fact that they are now having issues with Hero Engine may put this one on the shelf for a while.

    The other two I just literally heard of this week. Anyone have any feedback aside from Hives Vid?

    What are your other Hobbies?

    Gaming is Dirt Cheap compared to this...

    Did he really buy this or was it given to him because ANY decent you tuber knows they get these games for free just by asking.Actually you don't even need to be famous,just say your a you tuber that likes the game and want to give it props and they will send you a free copy.Or they simply know of him and sent him a copy asking to review it.

    Glitches tons,well i guess expected in early development.Has nothing to do with Unreal engine that is just bad mapping and bad coding but yes the engine sports tons of tools and offers a large texture size to bring out nicer graphics.

    I don't like the weaponry and to me this team is a little off in their mindset because the damage splats/animations are way over done,it looks like the creature should fall dead instantly from so much blood damage.
    ARK had that same bugged creatures that don't respond to damage,don't like that at all and really we can't call bad coding a bug lol.

    Potential? Yes i see some but would like to see better weapons better looking creatures and not a fan of the Defiance look either,space suits are so old outdated,need to spice that up.

    With Defiance closing soon I think that this game could get some attention.

    Source? 

    Let me guess,  don't have one right?


    I have only read what people says on the forums and the general feeling about the game are very bad no matter how you trion's acolytes try to hide,It's inevitable,no new real content in the last year and the only thing that trion do is putting loot crates on the store,maybe they will keep milking the gamers that still play but the game is already dead.
    Project Genom could be what Defiance and Firefall failed to be,a good open world TPS or at leat will try ,trion never tried to improve defiance,they just taken other games.

    Yes the thing with Defiance makes me remember Need For Speed World, no new content(race tracks, cars etc) added in game but every month they did sale of recolor of available cars through gambling packs. Defiance is doing the same. It is god damn shame, despite being a shooting game; my least favorite genre; i enjoyed the game a lot.

    What i want to believe is that they are now in the middle of finalizing the deal with scy-fy to have complete authority of the ip and working on a brand new area added to the game. But i am pretty sure i am wrong. I don't think they have more than 5 people working on this game.

    I LOVED Defiance, I have played for more than a year when all around there was negativity and criticism,I have supported doing the preorder and buying the season pass,I have also take the time to write countless feedback and suggestions when they asked.
    BUT trion instead sunk all the resources on Archeage resoulting in a big fail,now they are simply taking games and putting an item store on them,proble is that this end here,no support,no fixing and always the usual technical and balancing issues.
    It's sad because I used to respect trion a lot,Rift was a great game and Defiance showed a big potential.
    Now the worst part that really make me sick is that they spend more efforts in advertisement than actually improve their games and business model,the real proof is that the only site where you can read positive things about trion is mmorpg.com while the other gaming portals simply ignore or criticize them.

    Hilarious video...but I'm not overly impressed, or even mildly impressed about the game.

    Early Access is a new nine letter curse word in today's market.

    hope it does not go the same way as the repopulation!

    i dont know, Genom's melee animations are for the LOLs.
    Divergence, didnt like it from its 1st videos
    Repopulation alpha servers are down for unknown how long (maybe forever)
    Global Agenta servers are still on, but nobody playing now, absolutely empty.

    can't think any other game now....
