Great! Donated as much money as I could miss. Really hope you guys get the kickstarter project funded, because I think this MMO will be a breath of fresh air.

Im definately IN. I really like what these guys are doing and Id like to help them succeed. I definately think they should be able to hit their target. If 1250 people pledged just $20 theyd have it. Tried: EQ2 - AC - EU - HZ - TR - MxO - TTO - WURM - SL - VG:SoH - PotBS - PS - AoC - WAR - DDO - SWTOR |

They had me until they said 'no skill cap'. That will just turn the game into a rediculous grind like Darkfall. Remember Old School Ultima Online |

Originally posted by parrotpholk Maybe another D&L. Maybe not. How many have bought SWTOR for $50+ ? AoC/WAR/STO/DCUO/etc ? Whats the difference between paying $50 for a game before release (with a chance that it might be a POS), and paying $50 after its finished and released (with a chance it might be a POS) ???

Been following this project for about three years now. The commitment, talent and vision for it seems solid. Definitely IN. filmoret: One thing I have never figured out is why the game devs hardly ever fix simple problems that arise. It is like they don't care about the pvp community. Nitth: What makes you so sure its a simple fix? filmoret: Because most of them are. Sometimes its just changing a number in a code string other times its creating a few variables. However none of them should take over a few hours of coding. |

Originally posted by PyrateLV Pre orders you can get your money back one way or another normally ( not always). This is a donation so if it goes belly up then poof goes your money. And who is to say these folks are not taking the money and using it for something other than game development. Just a bit fishy to me. |

Originally posted by parrotpholk Didnt say anything about Pre-Ordering. I said after release. I pay $50+ for a Digital DL from their store. Game sucks. My money just went poof. yeah I have the "digital version" of the game I can play any time, but it sucks so I basically lost my $$ on it. I lost money on Tabula Rasa when it went poof. Same for E&B, MxO, AA. I dont want to say how much I had in SWG (2 accounts and 5+ years of subs) Yeah A&B could be using the money for hookers and blow. What did Bioware use their $200+ MILLION on?? Not SWTOR thats for sure. Im willing to risk $50+ on The Repop. They want to use it to get laid? Fine, just make sure you still make a great game!

Dude i was there i'm not as stupid as i was then,i've been following this game for a while now believe me these guys are not NP3,they are trying there best to make the game that every sandbox player desires i don't usually do this sort of thing but there is a real game here it's not vapour ware,and besides that if you visit the forums the devs show real integrity and constant communication with the community which is sadly missing from many Mo's today.

Good god if u want all the facts get onto the forums,they have self funded the development but as Kick starter worked for so many other projects why the hell not try it for this,and don't compare Curt who was mega rich and basically wanted to splash is money around in the big boys pond of development to a small team of talented devs,if we took that attitude many of the classic games would not have seen the light of day as many where programmed by devs in there bedrooms. Their main reason is to increase productivity they have all the tools and work closely with the Hero devs,unlike Bioware are now faceing the consequences after gutting the Hero engine and not useing the latest developments give by the Hero devs,JC state's that what is mainly needed are art assets to expand the world so with a few paid artists instead of people useing their free time the game will develop quicker,and if u are still not satisfied then i give up.

No sense fighting over it, some people just don't agree with the kickstarter mentality and I can understand that. To each their own. Joshua Halls |

Originally posted by PyrateLV They say a happy developer is a productive developer. And a company with benifits like that sure would have happy developers. I worked during the .com boom years and the best we got was free soda, pinball machines, foosball and sofas in a chill room. |

Yeah really ironic that 38 studios and Big Huge Games was voted one of the best places to work in 2011 and in less than a year it went tits up,maybe Kickstarter is the future as a sure fire hit like SWTOR less than a year later is dead in the water despite the budget and hundreds of devs behind it.

Repopulation and Pathfinder online are the two sandboxes that will start a revolution!
