    I was.

    untill Richard said that over 50% of the game would be instanced.

    no thanks.

    Honestly I was more excited about Tabula Rasa before the revamp to a shooter/mmo. The original concepts and gameplay looked very fun and "new". This Tabula Rasa reminds me of Planetside or SWG NGE a Shooter with levels and techno magic thrown in. Blah-

    That looks pretty freakin awsome to me.  I'm looking forward to this one too but it seems to have fallen off the radar lately.  I think I remember hearing a few pieces of info at E3 but thats the last I've even thought of this game.  This thing has been in development so long it's begining to look like vaprware.  Hope we get a solid release date soon.

    This game has changed in so many directions during its production, that I'm looking forward to what the end result looks like.

    Are they aiming for a 2007 release?

    WOW!!! What a piece of crap this game will be. Too much instancing.

    Instancing is the lazy developers way to design a game.

    As always, I'll wait for this vaporware to materialize into something playable before I decide.

    Too much instancing for me....plus I suck at shooters. So I guess this game is a no go for me lol.
  • DarkchronicDarkchronic Member Posts: 1,088

    If Richard Garriot can't knock a game out of the release door, then we're all screwed.

    Given NC Softs reputation and the admission by them that this game has no fps element - I think youre going to be dissappointed. If NC Soft didnt have guild wars they would go bankrupt.

    The trailers look nice, but the game is not my style, guns and stuff... I want swords, or something liek that. Maybe I'm gonna play it, but there are sooo many MMOs coming latley, hard to choose...

    Game is interesting. Is it me or does it have 0 PvP ? That would make me not want to play it. Who makes a fps game without pvp ?

    It's better be hated for who you are, than loved for who you aren't.

    Simply releasing a game isn't enough. Developers are notorious for their wish lists of features...and partisans are even more notorious for taking a developer's wish list and making it a set of promises.

    What a game is on release needs to live up to what the developer says it will be, and to some degree it must live up to the hype that surrounds it. Until it reaches a materialized state, it's purely vaporware...nothing more than rumor, innuendo, suggestion, hint, and promise.

    At least, this is the way I insulate myself from false expectations.

    Sorry to burst your bubble.... in the last 10 years, the only reason RG ever realeased anything was that EA forced him to release it unfinished.  The man remains my childhood hero, but he is not exactly known for being able to "knock a game out the release door."

    I have to agree, unfortunately.  He doesn't have a very good hit rate.  I've been reading a wee bit about Tubula Rasa.  There are some very compelling rumours about how much money they've poured in to this game and how between it, the Auto Assault disaster, and declining CoH/V numbers,  the company has been dangerously strained financially.   I heard that there Garriot has at least 100 staff members.   It makes you wonder if it just might turn into vapourware or if NCSoft will push for a much too early half-cooked release  (in true Garriot-esque bad luck) or if they'll give up on it.  I don't know... it's pretty much mostly rumour except for the bits that NCSoft admitted to after the press got hold of it... and that was bad enough.

    Ive noticed some of you arent interested because its a fps

    Its not what some of you may think, it looks to me like it will be similar to the way auto assaults gunning worked, cant really tell though.

    Its an rpg, so it wont be like counter strike or anything. ^_^:

    lin2 is huge in korea.... NC soft does well, they have coh and lin2.....guildwars doesnt bring in monthly fees; however box sales are good.

    bad assessment.

    and....... atleast NC takes risks....superhero mmo(coh), first mmo with unreal engine(lin2), semi-open pvp(lin1), vehicle warfare mmo(not my thing)....we want companys to make weird shit- push the envelope.

    i think developers need to stop listening to forum people during development...let them make something fresh and new....forum people are a tiny percentage of actual players...
  • necbonenecbone Member Posts: 358
    btw,

    i will probably purchase this game....just watched the trailer and it looks badass, and i after i play, then i can say it rocks or it blows;  thats all one can do....

    dont believe the hype.

    I'm definitively looking forward this MMO. Unlike many here I have no interest in upcoming scifi MMOs that will do nothing but reash old stuff like Star Trek or Stargate online. I want real work involved, genuine creativity and Tabula Rasa is not based on anything, so they can do whatever they want. This is one of the reasons why I love Guild Wars, because beside the Dwarves, all the rest is genuine and not a copy of everything else. This is also one of the good points of Saga of Ryzom, who unlike others, like GW, created a world of their own with their own races and lore. I like that Tabula Rasa is a PvE MMO focusing on RPG. There are plenty of FPS games out there purely PvE RPG like Deux Ex, Vampire the Mascarade Bloodlines, Clive Barker's Undying, etc. Tabula Rasa's FPS will look very much like Clive Barker's Undying since in Undying you shoot with one hand and throw spells with the other, looks like the same will happen in Tabula Rasa. I checked on Amazon and they say Tabula Rasa should come out in january 2007, and the forum should be up soon (they said beginning of september) so I'm guessing beta is around the corner. I want to be in the beta. ::::24::
