Tacticular Cancer: We'll have your balls

  1. Having trouble staying logged in? Note: We are rpgcodex.NET not .COM. Trying to login via .com will cause issues. Make sure you are on rpgcodex.net to login and all will be fine.

    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

    "This message is awaiting moderator approval": All new users must pass through our moderation queue before they will be able to post normally. Until your account has "passed" your posts will only be visible to yourself (and moderators) until they are approved. Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

    We need a new Police Quest. Maybe it could take place during the G20 or on Tahir square. It's even going to be an action game to reel in those casual fans.

    I do realize this isn't much, but it does bring a smile to my face.

    So, maybe we can get a (real) new Star Control.

    Man that would be awesome! As SC2 is one of my favorite games evah. But I fear that it would not get a lot of money, as I fear not many people today know about how glorius it was... :(

    I think Star Control is better known than Wasteland, at least it was until the WL2 kickstarter.

    But wasteland has the "we are the grandfathers of Fallout" factor, and SC2 doesn't have it. I bet huge amount of people donated because of Fallout.

    Oh, this thread. I posted this over in the MMO forum, but I guess here is as good as any.

    **********COPYPASTA************

    http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/forsakenstudios/embers-of-caerus-investor-prototype?ref=card

    I'll summarize. It's another attempt at a "UO spiritual successor" sandbox MMO. What's piqued my interest is that they've said multiple times that it's not all about combat. The combat focus of Darkfall and Mortal Online, besides craptacular development issues, is what kept me away from those titles. While EoC will have it, the producer has stated that the game is being designed to allow those who choose not to make the whole of their gameplay experience to be combat to still have a satisfying experience.

    PR speak, obviously, and very, very early so we're talking about a game that may never see the light of day, or may turn out vastly different than described. Still, their pitch hits the right buttons for me, so I'm thinking about tossing a little something their way.

    ***********************************

    It'll probably end up vaporware, and they're not anticipating a release until 2016. Still, it does sound good on paper, so fuck it.

    For this very reason was added to the shit list sometime ago, Kickstarter is already Pay&Pray as it is, no reason to add an ulterior layer of uncertainty.
    Besides, many here are against the whole concept of giving money for getting a publisher, without mentioning that pledge tiers are not legally binding, is alway possible that the publisher will not maintain the promises made by the developers. it's already hard enough that the developers themselves will do.

    I think FeelTheRads meant an actual new Quest for Glory, or at least a similar game by the original authors.
