Or servers for mother tongue would be a great thing. Many players in my surrounding area like to play in there mother tongue. Especially role playing games.

tbh, i do not hope for a "localized CENSORED german" version ... maybe give those a german client that "need" one and ok, but german only servers ? nah, that's boring, we need our "wargames" with france and gb clans/guilds

Anyway, good to hear how this is coming along guys, hope it does well.

How do you say in latin "Remember to get a free T-shirt on your way out!" ???

I salute you for taking on such an ambitious endeavor. I truely hope it comes to light.

This will be the end all of PVP MMOs if all of the items listed in the FAQ are in release.

I think he meant this will be hard to beat as a PvP centric MMO, as the last major one was Ultima Online. Though I won't go as far as saying no one will ever top it, as that's too far into the future and too much is possible then.

Yes, you hit the nail on the head. That is exactly what I meant

Do it first-person only. People will get used to that and see how much more exciting that is. Not knowing if someone sneak up on them from behind.

Counterstrike is FPS and is a fantastic game, the best ever created. Even after several years you can still improve your skills. And you can see if someone is an expert on just how the person moves in the game.

Focus on making combat really fun, interesting and involve alot of skill. Focus also on character development to make the game fun to "level up" and have a few really great zones. Don´t have to many races, that will just make the game delayed.

Well , to be first-person only wouldn't be very versatile since one of MMORPG's biggest attraction is the item collection and how you look in-game , and while that doesnt' have the same importance to everybody , it's still something that you can't take from a mmorpg , heh not even from a RPG.I'm guessing they will surely add a 3rd person view , at least while traveling.
But then again i might be wrong , even so , this game looks great at the moment , and looking forward for more info.

They chould add 3 person view only, and only if people can´t see whats behind them. Othervise noone want to have the disadvantage to be in 1 player mode.

[Dammis]

Sounds Great.
Is there First Person while Moving and Traveling too, but only in Fights ?

[Trixxer]

I think it might be a problem if the combat involve aiming if it is in 3 person mode. They should prioritise 1 player mode and when that´s working and they have time over they can add 3 player mode. Maybe we can go out to 3 person mode for a short time, but as soon as we get hit or do any key strike we are into 1 person mode again and can aim etc ...

1 person mode is actually a great game mode .. only drawback is that in a MMO you sometime want to see how you look like.

Like they keep saying it will be FPV. And on your mount you can see your guy all you like because that is TPV.

[scabzy]

good sell speech ,and good luck to the game team.

[Jutsin]

Open world + FFA + full-loot + non-scissor-paper-rock PvP = win.

You have my loyalty

[Gorblum]

Wow interesting concept of having multiple characters linked with different skills, just imagine this , we dont know who are other characters are and therefore if you let them train certain abilities . You will see one in the end whom can be subtle and yet deadly to have obtained enough skills to be very powerful. It just got me to picture a deadly character like in Heroes series where one guy obtains abilities from others but thats from killing them.

FPS medieval fantasy will certainly be interesting , just need to figure what kind of controls would be placed upon. Oblivion certainly got a successful hit for being a great FPS combat system. Might of Magic is also another quite interesting. Now for an MMO would be a lot to be enjoyed just hope there would be balance especially if there are ranged combat involved too. Otherwise people will want to do ranged to stand back and shoot rather than getting stuck in there.

Humor detected.

[Doskias51]

This game concept definitely has great potential and I am looking forward to being apart of the community for this game rather it be from the get go in beta or at release. I really like the Deva concept for those people that like to get into many characters and what not. The graphic concepts so far are really nice. The first person thing is a little iffy for me but I am just use to MMORPG being 3rd person, but is something I would really love to test out.

[Grady]

woohoo, that sounds awsome, just like the game i wanna play
I wish you devs all the best and that you can make it all happen. I just droped from that
Conan sickness and I pray for a new title that's not following that make-it-all-easyer dogma that started with WOW.

What about the sounds we can hear ?
Unless everyone will play a stealther-like, I guess we should be able to hear any barbarian coming, even without seeing him :]

My point is that 1st view can be good, but for a mmo I definately prefered 3rd view (best way to see the ass of my female character too).

[Vaylgar]

sounds very nice to start, Devs don't lose your sight on the goals you have right now, Short term money gain always ruins a game. Origin found that out the hard way with UO when they trashed UO2 online, The trailer looks absolutely awesome , but ill wait to see it in person before i make judgment. I hope to see more Real game play trailers sometime soon, nothing enhanced just plain ole game play recorded. I am now going to go look for info on the skills and other things hopfuly i can find somthing on that info. Keep up the great work.

[rackam77]

How will realtime combat system work ? Like some mmogs (AoC/D&DOnline), a RPG offline (Morrowind) or FPS-RPG (Severance) ?

[woodoo]

Why 1st person only?
FFA + full-loot = gank orgy/player exodus
I can write on and on why that is not good idea, but you already decided. Wish you all luck with it, you will need it

What about content?
Quests? 10000 quest of go there and kill numbers of npc and go back or pure grind. I am for pure grind so u dont need to waste time on those quests but on combat and crafting system and player economy.
Ill stick around.

[Manorothh]

Its a great concept of game, just like darkfall. I hope that the idea wont be changed since the game finishes its developement.
About the 1st person view, i think its better, because its makes the game more realistic and inmersive (oblivion).
To see your character, they could add a button witch you could see yourself, like in oblivion.

[wrath]

this game sounds great, kee up the good work guys, im anxiously waiting to try this out

some darkfall fans really fear mortal for some reason. like it's encroaching on their elaborate darkfall fantasy or something.

Actually, you gotta understand the DF fanboys, I mean, they didn't get any goodies for so long and now when the gameplay video was released they're just overly ecstatic. The video was like the second coming of Jesus Christ for them, cut them a little slack...

...or don't. :P
