Darkfall would be a good start , but the lack of trail is kind of a problem... My vote goes for anything sandboxy :) like good'ol ultima online that i hear of for so many years. Life is a game - Play it!... |

I'd say Ryzom is a great MMO for that. Open, sandbox type world. The skill/spell system is amazing; you obtain "components" from which you create customized skills. It's a bit much to explain in text, but it's very very cool. Also, as was mentioned, the world is very alive, and crafting is a whole other thing.... there are different types of materials for use in a given recipe, they go by quality level and, I believe, origin. So, if you need "lining", for example, you can get lining from a variety of sources, but the quality level of that material has an effect on the final result. Similarly, the color is derived from where the material comes from.. Again, a lot to explain, but very very cool setup. I'd be interested in what the OP is discussing as well, incidentally :)

The fact, that there is no trial IS a problem, since the game is not everyone's cup'o'tea (could be mine, icedentally). But we may consider it later.
I'm amazed, by the amount of people interested in this. I feel we're off to a great start and may begin narrowing down our search now. Let's make it simple, list 3-4 games from the list, you're interested in, and give the reasons why. We'll work from here.
P.S. I never got it, metalhead, altair, you in, or just helping with suggestions? I hate WoW because it made my plush hamster kill himself, created twin clones of Hitler, punched Superboy Prime in reality, stared my dog down, spoiled my grandmother, assimilated me into the Borg, then made me into a real boy, just to make me a woman again. |

I'm in, depending on the game. I'm not going to play PoTBS for the life of me... for instance. |

I would be down for trying something like this out Don't really mind what game is chosen. I have played quite a few of the listed ones but wouldn't mind revisiting some of them.

Excellent. Count me in. If we're going in as a group, makes sense to pick something that benefits from a strong group. Classic DAoC always interested me. DF is great but everyone needs to be aware of the big time commitment - and no trial, of course. I vote for something that has healthy pvp and pve. Ryzom sounds like a good possibility. My sense is that Eve would be tough for a new corp unless we hooked onto a larger, established one, which might dilute the spirit of this project. I'll try anything, though. My leanings: AoC, AO, Ryz, DAoC |

I think we should really try to do our own thing. "Dillute" is a good word in this situation. If we collecitvely join another guild/clan/corp/whatever, a lot of people will just be absorbed into it, without giving us the thing we seek. Ryzom really sounds good, so does DAoC classic. But we've just started - something interesting may turn up. Anyway, welcome to the team!

If I understand you correctly, you want us to start our own guild in whatever we join. I'm totally for that if that's what you meant, would be awesome to start a guild in a game where all of us are brand new, Never done that before and I feel it would add a lot to the experience.  |

If we stick together we could make it work in EVE, as a small corp, and I'm sure we can grow steadily. And next expansion looks really cool, with avatars and all. It's a damn serious game to start something really worth it. And 14 day trial, and first month for just 5$ in Steam. |

And, possibly, our own site, if the thing works out. Anyway, I'm off to sleep for now. I'll see to the thread in the morning. I'm pretty positive, that we can start this thing by the weekend, if not sooner. But let's not hurry things up too much.

You're absolutely correct. We're basically replicating the early MMO experience - we don't really know each other and we don't really know the games, we're looking into. This can get pretty good.
Don't worry, it's a democracy. We'll go by popular vote and a good discussion of pros and cons. And welcome to the team!

If I wasn't already dead set on playing FFXI (check the forum title) I'd jump on this as well. In my opinion, if your joinbing a game as a group.. eliminate all the games where you can solo most of it and play a "Grouping" game. Just my 2 cents.

We could, actually. That's not that bad of an idea. But still, we must consider other possibilities. That's what discussions are for!

That's what we're aiming for, actually. I'll probably play FFXI anyway, even if it's a side thing. Just love a lot of things about the game. And I'll still bug you to play with me, from time to time.
