Add my vote to the "this is the most amazing MMO I've ever played" category.  And screw the dude living in his parents basement that is a member of an "uber guild" that earns "six times more money than the average person" - this guy is SCREAMING "I'm a 16 year old douche trying to seem important online."

If your main source of income and/or entertainment in life is being a member of an uber-MMO guild well... um... more power to you, I guess.

For the rest of us, those gamers looking for something new and fresh - I'm neither very young nor very old (I'm 30) - but I've been a gamer nearly all my life.  Fallen Earth is the *real deal* - this game will be around for the long haul; it's simply too interesting, immersive, and addictive for it to fail.

Give it a try.  You won't be disappointed.

What means is there for human interaction? Or is this game just another single player online game like so many that has come before? I want interaction, grouping, trading, crafting interactions??? Can you elaborate on this. Show me some group play and I might be convinced this is the game for me. The complexity seems to be there but If I want single player I'l play fallout!

 

Fallout is like playing Atari Pong after playing Fallen Earth .... Nuff Said :p

Yeah this has nothing really in common with FO3.  FO3 has a specific art style that isn't even close to FE.  The only things, IMO, that are even remotely comparable are being FPS/TPS toggleable and the post-apoc era (which is radically different in the two).  Nothing else.  Hell even soloing, which is how I play FE, is better in this MMO than in FO3 single player.  Just my 3 cents..

What your doing is not new, its been done numerous times and unless its a fun hobby of yours its a useless effort. I am the leader of one of the largest guilds in the MMO scene, 2800 players that play over several MMO's. A group of "test monkeys", 138, tried Fallen Earth and the 15 page questionaire completed by the members had a unanimous result. Fallen Earth is lackluster, poor mechanics and sub-par grahpics, poor gameplay, poorly designed zones etc... It is a waste of time and money. Fortunately, my guild re-emburses the testers for the full monetary amount of a fail game but unfortunately for others, like you, your stuck with the tab. I'm not here to say "no" don't play that game, I'm here to tell you to research a little more into the game before wasting your money.

While you're enlightening us on your biography, you left out a little nugget of info; you seem to be a douchebag.  :)

Since there is no free trial, and the game ain't perfect for everyone obviously, I made a "Let's play Fallen Earth" series. Which basically means that I'm creating a character from scratch, recording that, and putting up the normal gameplay on YouTube. It's not as interesting or flashy as showing just the best scenes from PvP or a dungeon or whatever, but I think it's a good way to get an impression on the game.

I'm normally not into creating movies nor is english my first language, but I guess for one or the other person it might be helpful nonetheless. Currently it got 9 or 10 parts equalling around 1 1/2 hours of gameplay. I already got a bunch of other parts but my knowledge in the matters of video compression is limited, so it takes a while to upload them.

In case you are interested, here is the link to the playlist with the videos:
www.youtube.com/watch

Don't let yourself get discouraged by some of the useless (thread-stealing) comments. Your videos actually give people a decent view on what Fallen Earth is all about.

Although I don't play the game myself, I respect the people that play it and have fun with the game.

For an independent developer they actually produced something nice. At least so it seems in the videos. Yes it has it's flaws, but even Aion (which I currently enjoy), has them. And Fallen Earth is actually one of the only games in it's MMO sub-genre. Which makes me think, is there any other MMO like this? It's going to be a huge advantage point for the developers, just like in EVE Online.

I totally agree, my comparison with Atari Pong is obviously a light hearted exaggeration , of course Fallout 3 is a great game. But to put things in perspective, I completed Fallout 3 ( Pretty much ) in about a week but I've been playing Fallen Earth since release day and hav'nt even scratched the surface yet.

Yeah the two games have a similar setting , but dont anybody be mistaken the games are miles apart in almost every other way.

And yeah even if your play style is solo , Fallen Earth is still miles ahead in content and sheer immersion into the game world . :)

 

Sweet videos :)

Can't wait to try it out myself :)

Thanks for these videos, they really have piqued my interest in the game.

Unfortunately, I'm a little strapped for cash at the moment otherwise I'd go buy it today.  Here's to hoping for a free trial soon!

Thank you very much for the videos. They were well done and entertaining. I was completely unsure about this game until I saw your videos. I've gone from having an interest in the game to having it in my "Must Buy" column.

this game is fantastic

 I made the jump and installing it now 

at first i was a little turned off by the graphics but graphics a good game does not make.  aftering flying through champions online and feeling a little bit unsatisfied, i was hoping that fallen earth would have a bit more substance.  it does, and i'm glad i started it.  it might be that new game high but the game is different from any mmo i've played and i've played many. 

i especially like the crafting in the game.  being able to make any and everything i need instead of being pigeonholed into one or 2 crafts is a welcomed change.  only lvl 9 now, but i honestly don't even care to level up that fast.  i'd actually like to level up other things before i move up to the other sections of the game. 

 Wish there was a free trial for the game.

There never have been free trials at a launch. Check in 6 months to a year.

went ahead and bought the game today and it comes with a Buddy key....( share this code with a friend for a 15-day trial )

ive been watching this game closely  , peoples reviews etc make it look very promising .

I would ike to have a go at the trial if someone is willing to share a  buddy key : )

Man, that troll is quite passionate about trying to sway people into avoiding this game. His approach was typical:

• Creates a new account so that no one can map him to all his other idiotic posts which proves he's not who he says.
• Labels himself as someone who would know more than the average mmo gamer.
• Feels intimidated by a person trying to show truth and reality about a game to help them make a decision.
• Pulls subscriber count out of his ass like your typical Internet Statistician.

These things add up to someone who is well known in this forum who dissed the game before and after it was released, and is now pissed and jealous that people actually like the game.

Can't wait to see the vids.  I've been on the fence about buying this game for awhile.

Fallen Earth is fun for me and in a lot of ways is a breathe of fresh air in the MMO design/marketing paradigm we are currently in. FE reminds me a lot of MMO's like UO, AO and pre-CU SWG where you had to think a little...no offence by not mentioning games like EQ as I didnt have a lot of in depth playtime there to offer a useful comparison. I can see how newer MMOers could find FE old/bland etc etc because later MMO's seem to be all about "bells n whistles".... its just what you have to compare and offer an opinion on.

As a note on the "uber" guild leader (for want of a better word) posting his comments about FE.....if it was a valid attempt to offer an opinion or "help" it came across more as a threatened rival MMO....really was one of the oddest posts I have ever seen in all my years reading  on MMO forum's.
