Fallen Earth was the one game I was excited about. IDK which videos you have seen but the ones I saw wern't  cheezy at all.. But I guess everyone has different tastes.

 

The game sounds awesome, having to craft your own ammo and building vehicles from scraps you find. Being able to take clothes from corpses and scavenge other things from them also.  The character customization looked pretty sweet too, being able to have a hairy avatar and being able to roll up pant legs when you feel like going gangsta or button or unbutton your shirt. Getting tattoos at tattoo parlors.  Oh and we can't forget about zombies thats what got me interested.

 

Its not all first person you can do 3rd person shooter or have melee weapons too. Plus the main npc actually talk to you about missions and what not so you don't have to read all the time. I cant remember how much but It was a decent amount.Oh and its skill based, although their are lvls but what level your character is dosent say how powerfully they really are.

 

Well I'll look into some of that other stuff you posted but I advise you look at more videos and read the forums. You have to dig to find some stuff for this game, I found some really cool videos of the developers running around the begining area.

 

Not to argue about it, but the graphics in the latest video look like something early 1990s. Not much better than SWG. I don't think it is appropriate for 2008-2009. Now if the gameplay is really good, I don't personally mind so much (example: I prefer WAR over AoC any day). But one could fear the gameplay might suffer. When I look at people shooting critters, the way they move, everything from rifle movement, the animations of the avatars, I feel I am look at the first Rainbow Six game (which I love, but wouldn't want to see as mmo engine).

Just my thoughts.

Kind of thought Fallen Earth looked rather cheesy myself...I haven't looked at it in over a year,at that time I thought it looked hopeful. But really not impressed with the art direction.

What is aoc but guild wars with a fee?(or diablo2 or never something nights)

Nobody has stated that huxley will have a fee...

ijji.com has the rights to publish it in usa (none of there games have fees)

all i have to say is this....look at the beta screens on default resolution and settings

the game is fun...try it then you can complain...

Isn't Huxley in closed beta, under NDA? Are those screens supposed to be posted here?

Several things:

1)  Nice to know you actually take longer than ten seconds when you look into writing your opinion.  Pathetic, really, just remove your opinions if you won't actually put time into what you post.

2)  Talk about a knee jerk reaction, eh?  First off, if you actually looked into the game a bit, you would realize they are working on a new site, but it was one of their lower priorities.  Secondly, what the hell does web design and game design have to do with eachother?  They are a little alike, but that is it.  Just because none of the team are web designers doesn't mean they arre not serious or cannot make an MMO.

3)  Generic fantasy?  Look into the game before you post.

You've lost all of your credibility in this thread, seriously.  You do not even take the time to look into games you are talking about, yet you adctually expect people to take your opinion and posts seriously?

The next time you post something like this, post more than biased knee jerk reactions.  You may as well delete all your opinions, since you clearly didn't put time into them.  kthxbye

...I need to calm down a bit............

I asked a simple question, since posting anything under NDA is prohibited here, and I am not familiar with Huxleys status. Sorry if I bothered you so much.

yeah for the first time in a long time a dev team put graphics second to gameplay. they have spent their time quietly fleshing the game out and getting mechanics right.

To the OP... 

1.)  Where did ANYONE from Bioware say they're MMO was going to be WoW-cloned?  They have said repeatedly it will be a STORY-DRIVEN MMO, and not like anything currently on the market...  YOU are the one that injected the WoW-clone belief, not them.

2.)  You don't seem to be a fan of Fallen Earth.  That's fine, but you lost all or any credibility when you say the game looks cheesy and the graphics are poor.  The graphics are fine, the game looks great with a sandbox appeal and skill system, AND FPS combat... 

Sorry, your post isn't the least bit comprehensive or objective. 

Fallen Earth and Bioware are probably the 2 MMO games that won't be like anything currently on the market and you bash both of them...

I should have expected the multitude of fans charging in to protect their upcoming mmo of choice. It is clearly just my opinions as I said. Fallen Earth does have some interesting aspects, but the art direction is awful.

So does that mean this game will be bad? No! I don't even value graphics over gameplay, but the animations and graphics really look like first generation FPS. Anyone can see that. Also it lacks a cohesive art direction.

That women in camo with guns looks like something from a bad toy company. Sorry.

Again, this is my opinion.

 

On to your other point, Bioware CEO clearly said that WoW is THE model for mmo making in an interview.

Listen, I don't know if you are connected to the devs of this or something, but the website is horrible, the information is structured really poorly, the bricks, pretty much every elements looks cheesy. And the screens look like something my 3d modelling friends could have done the first six months of learning to work with 3d.

I am not impressed.

Let's take WoW. Sure the graphics are toonish and not very advanced, but Blizzard always come off with cohesive product - the art elements work together in a meaningful way.

Citadel looks like a pet project that will never take off, never be released and if it will be it will be very very limited. Sorry for not being super excited about something like this. There is nothing in the descriptions of the game, the website design, the 3d screens, nothing that excites me.

Just my opinion. It takes NOTHING away from you.

He has a point, CoS website is terrible and will turn off a lot of people cause of that. Hard to trust in a game's budget when they can't even afford a decent webdesigner.

My first thought was, WOW. After checking it out I feel there is something fishy, darkfall-like about it. I am not convinced this is a real mmo under development. Just my opinion though. I am still following it for a little bit.

http://www.mortalonline.com/ 

what is fishy about mortal? people seem to thinks it's vaporware just because it has similar features to darkfall. reposting this here to "convince" you that it is a real mmo that is in development. 

1) they are using unreal engine 3. epic games doesn't license their products to companies that are not well funded as it would look bad on their engine if they didn't make a quality game.

here's a quote from mark rein, vice president of epic games.

“We're excited that new developers like Star Vault, who have such great potential, are recognizing the value of licensing Unreal Engine 3. We know this is the way they can realize their creative ambitions quickly and deliver great games to market. Some of the most significant companies in the game business have licensed Unreal Engine 3 to build their MMO games and Star Vault has now joined an illustrious group. We'll be watching their progress with great interest."

2) starvault is listed on the swedish stock exchange. 

http://www.aktietorget.se/Instrument.aspx?InstrumentID=SE0002149369

3) they will be at the leipzig games convention in august showing mortal online.

I'm quite impressed that this guy thinks a producer of a game engine would handselect his clients. And even worse, he concludes this out of an absolutely boring standard statement from the merchandising department. Oh of course every client is very special to Walmart !

Nice list. I must stress, however, that Aion is not a Korean grinder. A little research goes a very long way

lol you actually think epic games doesn't handpick their clients? do you really think epic games is perfectly fine with bad companies making shitty games with their engine? epic games has a reputation to maintain. they don't want sub-standard games representing their engine. gather up a few hundred thousand dollars and go try to get yourself an unreal engine 3 license without a firm plan to publish a quality game. watch them laugh at you. epic offers a lot of support to all their clients and are not interested in doing business with unprofessional people that clearly do not have the means to ship a a quality product.

I follow Aion pretty closely, and I never said it IS a grinder, I said I hope it isn't.

What I mean is that the game looks great, but whether or not it will truly appeal to me depends on the content. I feel it is still flimsy but promising.
