    Everything sounded amazing..... until no NPC in the game.... This game would be a waste of time for me. Hope those of you who will be playing this thing will enjoy it.

    Do we get to fight Indians in this game ? Cowboys and Indians ? or do the cowboys fight Robots ???

    is fighting Indians in a  Cowboy MMO to racist these days ?









    I'm quite sure there will be no native Americans to fight, would show really bad taste if they did.






    Is it bad taste to have Romans killing Celts?  History is what it is.  






    Exactly, I'm Scottish and my passion is ancient history, especially ancient Rome. While the Celts may have got rolled over, the other half of Scottish ancestry, the Picts, gave just as good at they took. Demonstrated by Hadrian's and the Antonine Walls.


    I get what you are saying but you are comparing more ancient history of cultures that really don't exist anymore to ones people living today closely identify with. (and are still hurting from the results of history)

    Some Native Americans still live on the reservations their ancestors were forced to move to as part of the relocations forced on them in the past 150 or so years.  

    Not sure I've read too much on the Celt relocation camps though apparently they continue to dream of succession even now over in Scotland.

    Maybe they could let Celts have some land to build casinos on? ;)

    Cowboys and aliens. That's the ticket. One of the most enjoyable "S" (for shit) movies I've watched in a long time :)

    People pls read the post before posting, they clearly say the core game is funded and will be out late this year and kickstarter is only to fund additional features.

    And I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you........

    This time period wasn't kind to many in the USA. Will this be a realty based version or the hollywood "everyone is a gunslinger yippie kai yeh pew pew pew"

    I've seriously wondered with smooth bores how the hell any of them were accurate back in the day. :lol:
  • DrunkWolfDrunkWolf Member RarePosts: 1,701
    cool idea, but only at kickstarter phase? so in other words we will check back in 4 years and see how its doing and maybe beta in 2022?

    Wild west is needed to have some change of pace, I just hope its not another survival game with a ww theme tacked on. Id love for a real solid mmo in this setting. I think these are one of those settings that do well with pvp but that's just me. At the same time if its like someone above said just h1z1 wild west edition I wont be following.

    The genre is getting worse. Open world pvp and no npc's to react with.

    What a great excuse to use "rootin' tootin'" in any type of sentence. My day is made. Now to iHop for a "rooty tooty fresh and fruity" breakfast. :P



    On topic, however, I would dearly love a western-themed MMO but not one that is only PvP without any NPC interaction. Wish these guys the best though!



    Hah, you basically read my mind there.
    Fun for those that are into that sort of thing, but I'll give it a pass. :)

    While this game looks interesting, I have to agree that I am a little concerned that this is going to be just another PvP Open world kill feast dressed in chaps and cowboy boots. I don't really want something that forces me to PvP. I don't mind if I CHOOSE to PvP but not forced. Even in the old west you could walk away from a fight. That does not seem to be the case here...at least in what is being said.

    Let's party like it is 1863!

    The latter is essentially the old western fantasy in a nutshell, so most likely.  It's a prime setting for a PVP game, so the focus on it makes sense.

    Not totally sure how I feel about this.  On one hand I'm not a fan of westerns or the genre really at all.  I don't discourage others that enjoy it.  In fact, I'm happy for fans of that genre and this type of mmo.  I really hope it turns out to be a great mmo that you enjoy.  Would also be great if other developers learn new things from this mmo and apply it to future mmos, if anything innovative comes out of it.  For now I will just watch and see how this unfolds before I decide whether or not it's a game I want to give a go.
