Why not just re-launch TabulaRasa and call it TabulaRasa Redux, add a few more zones and voila...
Sorry for being cynical, but I don't see how this game is gonna pull a different market crowd than what TR did and sadly failed, unless the publisher is actually aiming for a small market share with cheap continuous development... I dunno seriously.
Game needs a lot and I mean a lot of work. The only thing that caught my eye was the trees...in the one scene that they actually had trees...the trees look good. Keep working on the rest.

I agree needs a lot of work. Maybe another 2 years in oven. if they released it any sooner its gonna fall flat on its face.

Earthrise is open FFA PvP with varying degrees of NPC security much like EVE.
All items in ER are crafted.
There are no instances.
There are no levels.
There are no classes.
The game's central feature are the "contested territories" which can be conquered and controlled by player organizations. These lands provide valuable resources for the owners to mine which can then be used in the construction of more powerful technology. Also, conquered territory can be built upon.
The game was announced a little less than three years ago wasnt it? And isnt this an indie company?
Come on guys, lets give it some time, this is one of the first gameplay footage vids they have showed, and its not all bad. I laughed once and went "WTF?!" at least twice, thats not too bad in my book.
Animations do 'not' look great, but remind me of the very stiff, non-fluid animations I saw of Xsyon 6months ago.
Game-play does 'not' look great, but clunky.
Graphics do 'not' look great, but I am assuming they were 'low' resolution.
Environments do 'not' look great, but sterile.
I am glad that someone is brave enough to release footage so we know things are still in-development, but be honest, things are 'still' in-development.
Granted this was a very brief look/view, but if it's their best representation at this point in time, I could understand if they need another year to really make game-play, mechanics, environments, and overall coding more robust, clean, polished, smooth, etc.

No its not the first gameplay footage. Another gameplay footage was posted an year ago which was as bad as this one and got same reactions. Nothing has changed over the year i guess. They can have all the time they need. I am anyways never in favor of rushing the release.

On paper this game sounds perffect for me. I think the video looks promising. But as with all MMO's for now on. I will not purchase it until the reviews come in. It might fail completely, im not blinded, but I hope it works out.

This is what I was gunna say pretty much.... Kinda looks old. But this is BETA..things..might improove..doubt it..but hey ho.
PVP looks pretty fun to me. I will admit the animations can use a good overhaul, but luckily for me I put game play way ahead of graphics and animations.

I saw a lot of potential for the game. Yes, the world is blend but who gives a crap as gameplay should be their first and most important item on their agenda for improving. Yes, animations were clunky but from the tads i could see not including the melee animations they got the right idea. Taking into weight and how you would move with a gun they were really close or spot on.
People remember you can choose between free aim or lock it is totally up to you.
You guys wanted a video well here is your video and now a lot of you are saying ohhh maybe they should not have showed a video! WTF?!?! make up your mind people!
In another vid, a dev was saying it is an RPG, not a shooter per se. So, standard MMO targetting.
Logical fallacy; that was not stated anywhere and just because the game is structured like an MMO does not immediately imply the control system is the same as other MMOs. TERA is a prime example.

it's ok if it is still in Alpha, now that we know the game truly is work in progress ( which we used to think that the game does not even being made )
the graphics are not that bad at all, it's acceptable, so what i am curious next is that they are gonna delay or still stick with their Q4 2010 release..
because looking from the beta footage, the game is not even 50% yet

50% incomplete world or 50% incomplete features? There is a huge difference!
If you mean 50% incomplete world then meh whatever those added lush and graphics can be added later. If you mean 50% incomplete feature/gameplay then yeah that needs to be fixed before release. However from what I saw, I saw a very near complete feature game even if it is lacking environment though some features need to be fine tuned and some balance needs to take place. Though Mob AI really needs work as that is very noticeable so an other 6-12 months is in order to fix the gameplay.
Well, that was a let down from all the time I spent waiting to see some in game footage from this title. It'll be interesting to see how it evolves, but now I know why they've been so reluctant to show it.

This looks pretty bad. Not completely not worth-while, but still pretty bad. Animations, as others have said, are not that great - The melee dude looks overpowered. Like, he always got to the target, and killed them in like two swings. Maybe that was just a demonstration of a character that is quite a few levels higher than what it was fighting, I'm not sure.
And is there any other mode of transport other than that super slow jog he does? I hope so...

Combat looks slow and clunky.
MOB AI...was there any?
World looks pasted together.
Animations....
Game needs a lot and I mean a lot of work. The only thing that caught my eye was the trees...in the one scene that they actually had trees...the trees look good. Keep working on the rest.

What are the numbers next to the targeted characters? Masthead (100) and Deconstruction Drone (70)
Battle rating, a number derived from your equipment and your skill proficiencies directly related to that equipment.

I'm confused. Why did the person they killed at 1:42 lose all of their clothing.
I hate to say this cause im eagerly awaiting this games arrival, but this looks like alpha footage to me.
Wow!! These were some really not impressive graphics, animations and effects.
I hope they take some time and have the skills to improve it. I'd say: don't release the game before 12 to 18 months
just my two cents
it's ok if it is still in Alpha, now that we know the game truly is work in progress ( which we used to think that the game does not even being made )
the graphics are not that bad at all, it's acceptable, so what i am curious next is that they are gonna delay or still stick with their Q4 2010 release..
because looking from the beta footage, the game is not even 50% yet
So What Now?
Looks great! Reminds me a lot of Tabula Rasa....and that's a good thing! Hopefully Masthead can pick up where NCSoft dropped the ball.
50% incomplete world or 50% incomplete features? There is a huge difference!
If you mean 50% incomplete world then meh whatever those added lush and graphics can be added later. If you mean 50% incomplete feature/gameplay then yeah that needs to be fixed before release.
