So the Faxion forums are meh...

The people making Faxion were somehow involved in Shadowbane?

 

Let me in! (never played shadowbane though)

Some of the people on the team were at Wolfpack when it was aquired by Ubisoft but were working on another project until then. I think I'm the only one on the team that was part of the pre-launch crew for Shadowbane.

From listening to the interviews this game isn't going to be like Shadowbane at all. It's interesting though.

It has some similarities but no, it's not the remake or spiritual successor of Shadowbane. It is a fun PvP-game with territorial control elements with a robust character development system.

Ashen!

 

Long time, buddy! Glad to see you are still making the magic happen.

 

Quck question:

 

I just signed up for the beta but I was wondering if there will be Mac support and what the system requirements will be (optimal ones) for either platform.

 

Keep the dream alive!

Hey Noct! Hate to be the one to tell you but currently it is PC-only. We haven't released min specs yet but I will say you won't need a powerhouse to run it. We should have more news (about min specs and whatnot) soon, though.

Please compare and contrast Faxion to DAOC please.

Looks like fun! I like the stylized graphics.

 

I hope the controls are responsive. That seems to be hard for MMOs to achieve these days. Too many people without real programming knowledge around, I guess. But Faxion seems like it might be made by coders who appreciate streamlined coding, rather than people just focusing on functionality.

 

Anyhoot, looking forward to seeing how this turns out.
