True FPS and true MMO's go together about as well as oil and water.  They just don't mix.  There is too much lag and latency involved in MMO's to make true FPS feasible, and it will be a long while until the technology is available to negate that.  The FPSers wouldn't stand for it, and the traditional MMOer don't want the FPS stereotype around them anyore than they have to.  Nevermind the technological barriers, the two gaming cultures don't mix well at all.

As per one of the head devs last year:


Given latency issues with both the internet connection and the client/server, it is nearly impossible to create good gameplay which would be consistent for everyone regardless of their connection, computer spec, or the overall population of the server.

That pretty much nails it.

Who wants a house when you could have a cargo ship or Al'kesh.... would be cool if it were possible.
Because, there is more to a game than combat....

Some of us actually like a mental challenge....I guess we are a minority, though.

Well I wonder if there will be just one world with a few maps or if there are going to be the thousands apon thousands of worlds u can travel to.. I.E. a world wiht a few like two ro three maps to go to then a new world and only like 20 worlds together or if there will be a whole world which u can map otu and make structures/bases for guilds clans etc

In the show they havent been to every single world that they have wiht in thier data base ?? are more worlds what we will look foward to as expansions liek gladius sector andromada sector ETC.

 

as far as asgard weapons think about the Ga,uld ?? where did they get the tasers from ( cant rember the name but one shot stuns two shots kills and three shots disengrats) rember the Goa,uld dont make thier own techonolgy they use other technogly from other races and some of those items of interest are ancient and some are asgard.....

My only problem is going to be combat issues U will have skills active and passive and weapons but think abotu a soldier with a p-90 a side arm  grenades c-4 etc. hwo are u to fight along with staff weapons gliders is ti going to be a m.m.o.stratgey style or the regular point and lick fire with click slot for weapons ??? if point and click then here is a problem

1) when have Jaffa ever attacked some one or thing alone ????? they attack in formation containing 10 to 40 troops never alone so battles u will have to click on one jaffa at a time i see a lot of deaths

Here is a mental challenge for you ??? what can u do wiht a star frigate ???? or a mother ship ????

MMM give up not only fight and have defence cabilities but you can live you life in one wiht out having to be tied down planet side ??

now giving the choice i take it that u would liek the mental challenge of always worring where the next attack will come from while u try to build your house and level up and exployer other worlds ???

there si a mental challenge wiht taking ovber a space ship weather it is used for transport or war fare the mental challenge is with in course setting where to go defence fo your ship/home and upgrades liek shields and weapons ...

my other question is thsi asgard are dieng from countless cloning thier DNA is week and they are not able to stop this degeneration they key si with in capt> Jack o'neil nwo as a player charter u will be faced with this problem one they are fragile and weak as in low hp and stats except for mental there are pluses to this as well think u have the memorys of a entire history of when u wherwe first born to hwo many of millions or thousands of years expierence ????? but either way they should nto allow them as a player right off bat till they can explain why a dieng race that is dwindling in numbers will sacrifice thuier selfs to go wiht a team of SG-1 exployers ?????

TY and i am really lookign foward to this game 200 hours to reach max level sounds like fun and gives a challenge on how u level up mabey not another grind/pve/pvp M.M.O. after all mabey one that si limitless and fun

This is giving me very high expectations, I hope they can meet them, and I really hope this game is good.

So, Humans, Asgard, Jaffa, Gould.  Only four races to play?  Looks like they doubled up on Humans and Jaffa which is kind of  lame.  Obviously they seem to be going the "easy" route.  The reason I say this is because since they have doubled up the Humans and Jaffa, (i.e. good/bad humans, good/bad jaffa) that probably makes model design easier.  So far, this doesn't impress me at all.  I hope they add other races, because as far as variety goes, they aren't starting off very well.  Hell, I think even WoW has more races than that.  Eeeek!  This game seems to be screaming "boring" already.

I've been following this game for awhile in their forums... they have been in pre-production for atleast a year as far as I can tell, and based on what they have released, I don't think that they rushed it at all.  In fact, I think it's quite the opposite.

LotD has been following this game and Warhammer Online, but neither is far enough along for us to really make a determination. If one comes out before the other we'll see what happens.

I do find it encouraging that the game will support guilds, and competitive play.
