Hehe, ill get some gametime tomorrow. Got into the beta. But they run a much tighter beta than most, very limited gametime. This sunday i get 2hours of playtime and with no idea whens the next run.

Good new on KOTOR, actually... I was expecting an estimated delivery of summer 2011, and then probably another year delay after. If it actually holds true to spring 2011, i'll be quite the happy camper.

How's APB treating you, Peltz? You under a NDA?

Yep.

New trailer from Black Prophecy. Now the interesting part comes at the end of the trailer which states that it is a free to play MMO.

Here's some reading on the problems of Warhammer MMO, It is from October 2009.

In my eyes, APB just commited suicide.



50h of gametime out of the box is ok.



Damn microsoft with its point scheme, now everyone thinks they can get rich using it. Fuck no, this just wont go. I hope for the sake of people who buy this game, that the servers actually track the time the players spends in the action district. If we were to skip the stupid point system for a moment, this model is not so bad entirely, it should be quite good for people who get to play only on weekends or late at night.



Again, stupid stupid stuuuuuuupiid point system.

I hate points. The least they could do is make points exactly equivalent to some currency or other.

On the other hand, they're charging $10/month for unlimited game time. That's $5 cheaper than the average MMO. *shrug*

I also bet if you go for "hours" and spend more than $10 in a month, they don't automatically bump you up to the all-you-can-eat setting. That pisses me off about companies. Don't treat me like you want to milk me for every dime and screw me over if I fail to plan ahead properly. do the noble thing... you make me happy and you're still getting my money.

Eve Online is expanding. Planets are coming into play now.

oh, that's cool. Too bad I never got into the null sec/low sec space thing. EVE's a great game, I just got tired of spending a huge amount of time earning money to buy ships only to have them blown up.

Yea, Eve scares me, I am afraid I might succumb to its seduction and wont wake up before i am an old man. I was in the eve beta though, i still have the "congratulations, you have won a chance to play our broken game" email.


the first lines from the email that ruined hundreds of lives and turned hundreds more into, well, cocks.

lol, I love it when they do stuff like that.

I still get EVE emails. I got one trying to entice me to come back that said I had xx ISK just sitting waiting on me. Except the number was WAY wrong... I've got like 400k or something, and the email said I had a couple mill.

Maybe it grew with interest?

no, later emails had the correct amount. It was some sort of bug.

You know, I been playing MMOs since Evercrack. I have played A LOT of mmos so I have developed a certain heighten sense, a 3rd eye if you will. I see new MMO's come and go and I can usually tell when a MMO is just not going to live up to expectations.

That being said I just dont think KOTOR MMO is going to be so great. I just got a gut feeling. I might be ok, maybe good but not great. Its wierd for me not feeling the hype for a SW MMO. Maybe Im jaded from SWG but when I look at KOTO MMO videos I just dont see any zing to to. There is nothing there that makes me want to play it other than the fact is Star Wars. I looks like another game with WOW mechanics and KOTO skins. I hope I am wrong, I may try it. Im still playing wow and enjoying it. I cant say its perfect but compare to all the other MMO's its the best.

I have a funny feeling you're right, though I'm hoping it's my jade. I hated WoW, so I really hope it's not similar.
