This mmo looks really good. Focusing on pvp territory control and action combat with no levels and classes. It looks pretty far in to development if the video is correct. Tell me what you guys think.

    DSWBeef - I am so glad to hear that you are excited over Hailan Rising!

    This is actually Adam 'CaliMaestro' Smith from the Kickstarter video. I was doing an early check on any discussion that might be taking place over the Kickstarter page - and saw your post here!

    Our team operates on a very grass roots level, and we are going to make every attempt to communicate with anyone that may be interested in our game. 

    Thanks again!

    Ah man I HATE to hear that you are going through that! 

    No worries, we just appreciate the moral support! If you can just mention us to your friends, you have no idea what a huge help you would be =)

    Thanks so much for the support!

    Good find. Hadn't heard about this title yet. Looks good to me so far. Just dumped my last Kickstarter funds for now into Project Eternity. But 29 days to go, will definitely be throwing a little bit of cash towards this project before the Kickstarter expires.

    Curious to see how it turns out, for sure. The whole having no levels system I am a big fan of. But I was surprised by how many people reached 80 on Guild Wars 2 and complained about no progression. A lot of games that try to eliminate that current system that is so the norm in MMOs are going to continue getting resistance from a playerbase who are so hesitant to changes regarding progression and motivation to continue playing.

    Oh well, looking forward to seeing where this goes.

    Thanks guys! We are looking forward to seeing you in the game! And hey, Project Eternity is certainly worth supporting as well. Several of of the people I work with have supported and are waiting on that one. 

    If you could, please help us spread the word about Hailan Rising!

    AKA we don't want to take the risk, well let potential players take that instead

    @DSWBeef - Thanks so much, you have no idea how much we appreciate it!

    @Loktofeit We REALLY look forward to seeing you be a part of our community! We are indeed extremely fortunate to have such a seasoned team. That is one of the reasons we began developing the game in the fashion that we did - we are all not only long time members of the industry, but long time PLAYERS of MMORPGs. This really is the game we've all wanted to make for a long long time, and we're really thankful that our company let us develop the game in a different fashion than what has become the cookie cutter standard for almost all MMORPGs.

    Perhaps do a favor for the APB players? Some players are assuming that funding from APB's Armas has been taken and applied to your game. I am guessing it isn't true, you saying it isn't would likely make things better for the APB forums. Not to mention for the devs of APB that are considering Kickstarter for APB. [linky]

     

    Either way, I am looking forward to your game. It sure does sound impressive and sounds even more so.

    There are no Experience points... Huh?! There are Etherea Shards!

    Wow, you guys got some real vets on the team. I was at a keynote speech by Jess Mulligan at Turbine Nation 2004. She's not only an entertaining speaker (very open about her lifestyle choices too), but also has the chops to really help out a project of this nature. I'm gonna have to toss some cash at this.

    character advancement looks really nice.
  • OgreRaperOgreRaper Member Posts: 376
    Groovy. Though I've not played DAOC in years, it's my fav PvP MMO of all time. My dream game would be DAOC 2. So yeah, this game looks pretty neat. Hope it generates enough funds/interest.

    @MaxJac - Armas is completely disconnected HR. I honestly have no idea how that assumption was made. Armas is an entirely different product, and doesn't affect the APB or HR game dev teams at all. At any rate, apologies for the confusion lol!

    @DSWBeef - Our first day has been great! We are indeed on the way =D

    @Kaneth - I'm glad you recognize some of our team mates =)  Jess is indeed AWESOME!

    Speaking of Jess - we've made our first Kickstarter UPDATE! Please check it out at http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/reloadedprod/hailan-rising/posts/332371

    Sorry if it was asked already.  What's the payment model for Hailan Rising?  Is it B2P or Free download?  Will it require a subscription?  Will it have a cash shop?  etc.

     

     

  • DSWBeefDSWBeef Member UncommonPosts: 789
    Seeing how its Gamersfirst i bet its F2P but i hope its b2p or sun based! A game this good doesnt need a cash shop!
