Duhh man, I mean come on.

You could have known this if you read the SCO Forums..
It was announced that AR Would launch for Europe, and another publisher would later pick up the NA version again.

 Well, if what you said is true then it would mean it would be a flat map?

That cant be possible, there has to be some kind of freedom of movement, I mean you cant just... go to ds9 like a ship going to dock, you should be able to approach it from whereever, the map cant be flat, then eve online would even be better, they have freedom..

I agree that barrelrolls arent needed, this isnt a jet fight game, this is Star Trek. Starships do not roll or strafe. I have never seen a starship kite before either. But we SHOULD be able to do a loop, in order to get behind the enemy.

If we cant do a loop then the person who is behind the player engaged would automatically win, considering starships have better weapons on the front than on the back of the ship.

Hmm, I guess we will see.

 Well, that is different for everyone I guess.

However, in my opinion:

You should make it so that we can all create an unique character, very advanced character creation. Maybe even able to put your own 3d modelled head on it (This is possibile by mordern technology), But that wont be easy to make. But you would have a big winner as MMORPG. That is for character creation. Make it advanced. and big. and good. Also for careers, build our own career maybe.

The world itself, should be big, Cities should be interactive, and for example: have lots for sale where people can put their own special stuff, like their own house! But dont make it so that you have to go through a portal where you will find numerous copies of the same map with peoples housing, no. Put it in the same map (Think about WoWs events. Event ID 20 starts the fair building, which can be enabled/disabled on the fly at any given time, and then event ID 21 will complete it.). I know this is very well possible by simply generating a new ID and injecting it in SQL databases for example. No server restart would be required.

As for the world, well I guess we would be stuck with the plain old monsters walking over areas, flying over areas, whichever. Maybe even make multiple nations that war against eachother in open PVP without limits. Public transporation, Private Transportations, Players can start their own companies, but dont make it like Second World. Make like a mix of the standard MMPORPG, Real Life, and Second Life, e.g. One player could have a smelting factory, another could have a mining facility, or a lumber mill, or farm.

I;d love to colabarate with you on this, I got many ideas, I just dont have the equipment, money and skills to make a product out of it haha.

Not only is ACE Online a very nice mmorpg, it is also a flying simulator and first person shooter.

Once you enter the world of ACE Online, you can choose a few different gear types, Depending on your choice, it shows what role you will be playing in the game.

Basically, like any other mmorpg there are healers, (M-Gear), Tanks (A-Gear, M-Gear) DPSers (I-Gears) and just peak damage (B-Gear). All this added into one team will make a very nice raiding team.

The game takes a while to get used to, dont give up on ACE Online too quickly, there are alot of things you will need to find out and ask other players, You can totally pimp out your gear and become the #1 player on the server.

The Server is devided into two nations, ANI and BCU. They are in a constant war. You can select this at level 11. Before that level you are in FreeSKA, which is your training. Make sure to do the tutorial, it's very helpful.

There are monsters to be fought. Golden monsters to be looted, Bosses to be raided, Enemy players to be killed. Every kill from an enemy player adds 1 Nation Contribution Point to your team. (1 NCP), and also adds 1 fame to your personal Fame count, and 1 to your Brigade (Guild) Fame Count.

Each nation has 3 leaders. Basically it is best to let them lead, try not to interfare and do as they ask. Teamwork is REQUIRED in this game. Without teamwork your nation will fail, and you will be overrun within minutes.

Every 100.000 NCP there will be a mothership battle (Depending on nation), make sure to get to know this. Also, there are random Strategic Points popping up all over the place constantly, which results into a nice epic battle. These events are rewaded by War Points, which can be used in the shop to buy special powerups. (Armors, Enchanting Cards, Skill Cards, Shield Generators, and much more!)

Make sure to give ACE! Online a try. It's well worth your time and it is one of the most unique and best made Fanatsy/Flying/FPS/MMO's I've ever seen.

I'm hooked. and it's Free!
