True freedom only exists in abstract thinking.

I was recently reading one of the Q&As on this game. From what I've collected its going to be a story driven MMO with limited PvP and almost no economy. I even read that they were concidering not even adding a monitary system to the game.

I really need to find a Sandbox MMO with a player driven economy and good pvp.

Guess SGW wont be it.

Great! then i won't see you in the game.

Story driven MMO with limited PvP is exactly what I am looking for.

Not sure what Q&A was read, and how you got so misinformed, but you have things pretty mixed up.

There will be PvP at launch. There'll be duelling allowed, and there'll be PvP everywhere servers.

 As well, much more PvP is planned for after launch, but they're wanting to make sure that what does get added is done right and fits into the story arcs.

As for a limited economy, I don't recall that ever being said anywhere. I do know that not much info has been released about it, but there is going to be an economy.

he always beats me to these kind of threads.

 

i just realized that soon SGW is going to be getting a buttload of WoW/AoC/WAR trolls saying how this game blows etc etc. oh well, if they wanna be so narrow minded and not want to try a game with amazing potental as SGW then they are just as dumb as 90% of people think trolls are.

maybe they are thinking of leaving out money to eliminate the effing gold spammers!

i know that would cut the potential client base by like 50% since alot of people MUST be buying gold or they would give up on selling it. i think it is 1 of the bravest things any game can do! kill the gold spammers, kill the power levelers, and kill the account sellers, and the botters by ANY means nessesary !

I wish I could find the link for you that says that there won't be a player driven economy because it doesn't fit the story arc.

It just seems pointless to me. If your gonna make a story driven, limited PvP game, make it single player and don't waste your resources on the multiplayer aspect.

I'm not trolling the game, I think that It will have a good story line - hell - I'll probably play it for that, but it has SO much potential as a sandbox game.

Oh well.

/pray for KOTOR online to be sandbox

Ask a question and you are stupid for 30 seconds, never ask and you are stupid for life.

Is this true? Cause I don't play MMOs for the PvE...I much prefer PvP

KOTOR Online isn't a sandbox MMO, go read the interviews from BioWare Austin on their MMO.

If you want sandbox, look towards Earthrise, but that's no reason to troll around complaining about other MMOs, plenty of people like linear gameplay and they deserve to have a good sci-fi game like that just as much as we deserve a new sandbox.

Waiting for DarkFall in summer 2041

I dont know how many of you ppl out there, has been playing eve-online or is playing it currently.

 

But look at the economy.. yes the farmers is there - yes you can buy cheap isk. But the market is NOT totaly over inflated.

 

PPL getting cought buying isk gets to pay with it not by getting banned to begin with.. but a good big fat MINUS on the amount the recived :P later on they  might get banned if they do the same offence ..

 

Eve is a good examble on - farmers can be dealt with !

I will try the game and see how it is. Hopefully, it is something fresh from the tiresome array of fantasy titles. And I do not keep a list of things that a game must have in order for me to play it. In fact, I enjoy many different type of games even within the MMO genre.

Although I much prefer a linear story line, as long as there is a story, I'm interested. Although I don't like PvP at all, as long as it's contained somewhere and I'm not being ganked while questing, I'm interested. What "limited economy" means remains to be seen. Vanguard has a limited economy (only 15 items allowed on the broker) and that seems to work. If, as someone suggested, there is no currency at all, one will probably be invented.

From the little information available at the moment, I've seen quite a bit
