General Discussion

Today, we continue our exclusive screenshots series with the folks from the upcoming post-apocalyptic MMORPG, Earthrise.

Check out all three here.

I think ER will be a great game and I'm keeping my eyes on this new sandbox MMORPG for 2009.

yeah it does seem amazing. but im gonna keep an eye out to make sure it doesnt turn stupid. hope it doesnt!

Earthrise has all the features that i have been looking for in a game! Thank you for attempting to make it (i say attempting b/c it hasn't been released yet)! 

The first picture, the one of the statue and the bridge reminds me of I am Legend.  When i saw that picture though, i just hoped that it wasn't like Hellgate: London, where you get awesome views like that, but you can't go anywhere. your character is stuck on this linear street and it is all instanced. I would love it if in ER you could go where you see things. Like if i saw an alleyway that was all dark and terrifying, i could venture down it. I find the idea of padding around an overrun city not knowing what i'll find street to street is awesome!

Thank again for the pics! i hope this game becomes all it can be~!

Looks pretty cool. Nice ideas. It's what I want in a mmorpg. A bit early to have much of an opinion on it. Hope it gets finished and doesn't take 5 years to make.

Looks sooo bland and generic like some mod made by college guys in their parents basement.

Oh , a post apocalyptic world. How... unique.

And yes, that was sarcasm.

I think the shots look good, I am a fan a more realistic look and feel which I think this game has going for it. I am disappointed however at the lack of early shots of character avatars. Even concept art would be great to see as I feel that is what many of us spend the bulk majority of our time looking at in a MMO.

Anyways, this game looks good so far. Hope it really is a sandbox by the time it comes out. We've all seen how things change in development. I personally think a lot of MMORPG gamers are looking for something deeper than the level/class/linear build thats so common nowadays.

Sweet, thanks!
