Today, we kick off an exclusive screenshots series with the folks from the upcoming post-apocalyptic MMORPG, Earthrise.

Check out all three here.

Hmm, well, they're OK I suppose, but nothing that really knocks my socks off.  Guess I'll wait for the sequel.

Yeah, I kinda yawned looking at those...

i thought the spider thing was cool, i said wow to myself when i saw the pic. not bad.

1st pic of the spider looks decent.

That 3rd pic reminded me of some bland scene from City of Heroes, not very impressive

One thing I hope is the character models are not done in the japan-anima style. I am SO SICK of that style graphics in games. Let's get some realism please.

This, Fallen Earth, and Champions online are the games I look forward to most.

Good luck to the devs.

Do not speak of "games which shall not be named". We don't want games with the possibility of something to offer to suffer because of them.

Not really impressed it looks pretty generic and has that look that it'll never come to anything and be in "development" for 6 years then be canceled.

Don't worry they won't beAfter all the game it isn't developed by an Asian company.

i liked the second one, the spider was good, and the third one did look like a bland pic from COH. In all though, i think they are better then WoW, and as long as it looks better then SWG's Pre-cu graphics (they were good but now dated) im happy.

Not that great?  ho hum?  so so?

In the first pic did you see the spider in the background clinging to the wall like a real spider could?  You gotta admit that's pretty cool AI.  Looks like you will need to think in 3 dimensions in this game not just what is on the ground infront of you.

Take a closer look at that second pic and tell me that the texture mapping is not that great or that the frame modeling is just - ok.  Every building in that shot is very different in structure to the one next to it.

The third screen shot reminds us of the fact that it is a post-apocalyptic MMORPG, but again, look closer - that one building is 6 storeys high and the street level looks like we will have lots of broken buildings to ambush people from.

I think these are pretty damn good.  I also think some of you need to look closer at things you are being shown.

I agree. The shots look great. My only complaint is regarding, oddly enough, the spider. While they've paid great attention to detail for the most part, they forgot one small detail. At the size that spider is compared to a human, you would be able to see the hairs on its legs which enable it to cling to objects ( such as walls and ceilings ).

I know, I'm being picky. But I had to find something about this game to complain about.

Looks like Riverdance online :P

Not bad screenshots, but where is the ui, character classes and character customization ones? :)

So how serious should I take some screenshots from a game that will be released in more then a year ago ... without the obligative 6 months delay?!  Somebody should tell the devs DirectX10 is live, because some "nice and new" graphics in 2009 would be cool 

BTW, have a look at the screenshots @ play-earthrise.com. Seems like the screens there already got some textures - other like the spider or the building in the 3rd pic

These 3 screens make me think more about the games from yesterday then from tomorrrow

Looks pretty cool, I would like to see more apocalypse and destruction though; these looks kind of lame.

Would be interesting (though not unheard of) if those screenshots were computer renders with game models.

The funny thing is, that 'thing's" forum still exists here at MMORPG (just check with the forum dropdown list).

Hmm, I can't find it. It's not showing me the game listed anywhere on the drop down or full game lists. Throw me a link? And yeah, Divergence is/was full of shady crap right from the beginning.

I like the layout, and so far I am interested in this game....May as well put this one on the waitting list.
