It might just be me, but, the more i watched the videos of the game, the more i thought the graphics looked a lot like arcade type.

The world doesnt look very real, nor do the Bane, .. though it might just be bad video feed and hard to tell until you play the real thing.

Still hoping Fallen Earth comes out soon, to me it looks more like the type of game id be interested in.

Ive not read anywhere that says we can name our ships ... I sure hope we can, but am asking if anyone knows for sure if

we will be able to name them ? 

First off, you guys who say you tried to make a new account or log into your old one must b like 5 years old ... Ive made 2 new

accounts and have also been able to log into my old ones once i remembered the passwords.

2nd, they are offering in the new billing that you can play for $9.95 a month, for a basic subscription with 3 characters and so on.

there are the full details for those who are interested.

Ive been back for about 2 weeks now and the crafting is still fun, there is more community than i thought there would b, though most

are there to make dragons .. the only thing that will keep me from playing this game is the lack of adventure, i still run all over the

map with my lv 57 reaver and i dont see very many mobs, even ones that used to be there are gone now .. If you do find mobs they

usually are of the golem, pigmy or wolf variety .. would be nice to see something different  once in a while .. anyways .. its free to try

at the moment, so you can make up your own minds about the game .. i think it was way ahead of its time when it launched in 03,

and still has some great ideas that others never seemed to put into their mmo's .. but after crafting for hours on buildings, weapons

and armor, would be nice to be able to adventure a lil bit also .. IMHO

I recently went back to Horizons since they are letting us go back for free at the moment.

My characters from 03-04 where still all there. i ran all around, much has changed but most

of the places remained the same with the exception of mobs. A lot of the mobs are gone.

Why are all the mobs gone?  there just seems to be a lot of empty space now.

I'm no longer impressed, I closed 2 accounts, I'm very tired of the end game thats just based on grinding for Honor and gear .. its the worst endgame for any MMO I have played. Ill go back to EQ2 and wait for conan or another game to come out.

I like a more structured kind of PVP, where everyone isnt against everyone .. you know who the good guys r

and who the bad guys r ..

On that note, I also prefure having beginner zones safe unless you attack the opponent first .. there are just way too many

people who cant kill others of their same level so they find it fun to one shot new players, it discourages them from

even wanting to play the game, ive left games because I couldnt level out of the new B zones just because people kept

camping you that where way over your level.

That being said, most PVP isnt about ganking every person from the opp side that you see .. a lot of that goes on,

and to me that makes the game exciting knowing that you could find yourself in a battle with someone else other than

a mob that is always stationed at that spot on the game .. I like when games incorporate some kind of events, not just

the same old Battle Ground over and over again .. but have weekly or daily events that players can take part in. ( an

example of this would b, some games Ive been in have had weekend seige's on castles etc .. just having BG's or killing

people of the opp side when u see them questing, while they r fun for a while, gets old.

This is where I'd like to see pvp that mattered, like taking over a castle, the side that won got extra rep in that area, or xp from

the mobs they killed, etc .. would give an incentive to take part in the battle, not just a BG that the outcome doesnt matter once

you get your honor for it and its over ...

i just wish another game would come out that was worth playing, GOD I HATE WOW !!

but as far as games go, its a shame that its the only one worth playing .. EQII isnt fun, IMHO,

has great crafting and thats about all I like about it .. why cant there b a game out there with great

crafting and game play ?  There are things i like about wow, but I am just sick and tired of it.

Just when I find a neat looking weapon or armor it gets old and I have to replace it with an ugly looking weapon or

armor .. wish I could keep my neat looking weapon or armor and just upgrade the stats .. hmmm something to

think about if your out there making games ..   please !

Ive been following this game since 05 and each vague release date goes by with no release. Its now the middle of 07 and there is no way that HJ is going to be released this year. WAR is already talking about beta's and they have an 08 release date, HJ hasnt even talked beta, or gotten their webpage finished yet ..

I am so looking forward to this game and am willing to wait for a finished product, but would really appreciate them being a lot more realistic when announcing a release date.

Horizons was the first mmo I ever played, and I started near its release. Its crafting system was by far the most fun

I've ever been involved with, and probably one of the most realistic.  EQII was enjoyable also, but Horizons by far made you feel like you

was making a differance in the world by doing it.  WOW's crafting system is a joke. The game

is more about getting uber gear from your dungeon raids than it is about crafting anything of value .

Jewel , alchemy and enchanting would probaly be the only 3 exceptions; though you could still get by with out either of them. I just think

they help out more people than any other craft WOW has to offer. IMHO its not only one of the more useless craft

systems, but the most boring also. Most of the things you can craft on WOW, you can get cheaper or better items from

AH, Mob drops, quest rewards, BG's or rep grinding.
