I've been playing the demo today. I just died for the first time and I resurrected and dropped a headstone. Can anyone tell me how to pick up my headstone(equipment)? I've tried running over it, pressing f(pick-up button), and I've tried left clicking it. Nothing seems to work. Please help.

thanks, I haven't really looked at their site much until now. I probably should have done that. The spellcasting classes do look interesting

I have read about the death of this game. It is truly sad. Reading about peoples' experiences made me want to try out the game. It's too bad I never got to try it. I have heard great things about the community and it is upsetting to me that such a great community would be left hanging like you were. Sorry all. I hope you all find another MMO you can enjoy

Although this game looked interesting in its own way, I was not very excited about it. I never thought it looked bad, it just never really held my attention. I know everyone likes different things about mmorpgs and this is why people split up into many different types of mmos. Even though I wasn't excited, I know there was a following of people who were looking forward to the release of this game. I'm sorry for everyone who is upset about the cancellation of this project. You have my sympathy

Although I am primarily a melee player, I think spellcasting is very important. My problem with Tabula Rasa is its lack of melee. I hope AoC doesn't have that problem with spellcasting and magic. I think spellcasters are very important to the diversity in a game. It's important for melee toons to be able to aid their skills with magic, as well. From what I've seen in screenshots and videos, the game looks great. But, 95% of what I have seen is all melee and I was just a little concerned about the lack of magic. Honestly, I haven't done much research on the game so I don't really know what I'm talking about. That's why I'm asking everyone: Does anybody know if magic and spellcasting will play a large role in the game or is AoC primarily focused on melee combat?

Thanks!

the original "vision" with the three seperate attribute chains of mind, body, and soul would have been awesome. RGAR ruined everything with the FPS viewpoint. The little melee there is, is very lame. Combat, overall, is lame! The game just isnt very fun. Now, TCoS is a different story. The combat in TCoS will be revolutionary.


I'm not going to say whether it is or is not going to be "revolutionary" as TCOS looks nice, and all, but it's the same ol' same ol'.  Wait for open beta of TCOS and I guarantee you're going to have alot of the same complaints as you have with TR. 

 

I don't see TCOS having a grande ole following either, especially since the hype is mainly geared towards Warhammer and AoC.  Between those three games coming out I don't see The Chronicles of Spellborn being in the contest.  At least TR had alot more hype due to the great reviews given by TTH, IGN, WC, and the like.


TCoS combat is not same ol' same ol' because the system is completely new. It uses a reticule/crosshair system with real aiming. There is no autotargeting involved. In this way, FPS (or third-person-shooter) strategies are integrated in a much more actionpacked way, but still sticking to the RPG game style. But that is for another thread.

As you can see, on the MMORPG.com most hyped list, TCoS is currently 4th, while TR is not even in the top 7 anymore. Yes, Warhammer and AoC will grab a large fanbase, but TCoS will still get a significant, hopefully mature fanbase that TR just won't be able to pull. More on the subject, I think TR will be the first largely advertised MMO to go down hard in its first year. That is, excluding Vanguard. RIP
