They are promising a lot, and I have my doubts on whether or not they will be able to deliver. This procedural generation thing is really taking off lately. I've never really been interested in it as it seems lifeless to me in a way. For instance dungeon crawlers with random generated areas just...

The entirety of alpha is likely to be under a big fat NDA, so letting the press in who are not willing to pay at this point is not really in their best interest. You could hold out for a beta press invite, though.

I don't even know. I lost all interest in GW2 two months after release?

Yeah, it was about the time when dungeon finders started making you pre-made groups of people who are just there for the quick loot that I seemingly lost the ability to make any new friends in these games. It's this instant everything mentality that is plaguing pretty much everything these...

Whatever land you manage to get in the 48 hour (or more) time period that you get from being a trailblazer will persist into the actual launch of the game. Just to clear up any misconceptions.

The two day head start is at the end of CLOSED beta and right before the official opening of OPEN beta. Just to clear that part up again.

Here's how it is supposed to play out. Yes, your land grab will vanish at the end of alpha. However, the 48 (or more) hour headstart for the $99 package will begin before the official start of open beta. These claims that are found will never be wiped, even into the official release of Landmark...

So lazy.

-SOE

Wow, look at all those people buying Trailblazer.

So some confirmed classes for Next, -Cleric -Necromancer -Beast Lord (Confirmed for companion class, yay) -Tempest -Landmark will be played on *multiple servers, each able to hold at least 2,000 players each. Each server can be explored by players of every other server. -The "best"...

So assuming this does get off the ground and get the funding needed we're looking at 4-5 years of development time, so I can look for this around the year 2018 or so? Alright, I'll put it on my radar.

Gotta catch em all!

I wonder if every character in Landmark and Next will have that avatar face with the huge nose bridge and eyes that are far apart. Do they do this because of the SOEMote thing, or is it a stylistic choice?

I miss that feeling too. Going down into a dungeon and feeling like it's risky and dangerous to do so. Knowing that you might get lost at any turn. The feeling you get from learning a complex dungeon from head to toe is great. Being the only one in the party who knows the way and leading them in...

There is a simple solution to get around not paying SOE for any of the founders packs. This way everyone can be happy. If you think SOE is setting a bad trend with the gaming industry, then this is the best solution for you. Don't buy a founders pack. Now that the secret is out, spread the...

Just one founders pack will get them frothing at the mouth. I spent 8 bucks on a small bag of pecans last night.

Again, you can buy into the alpha throughout the entirety of the alpha. I pity thee non-believers.

"Trailblazer pack Limited Time Offer features are available through the Alpha portion of Landmark. They will no longer be available with the pack once Landmark enters Closed Beta." From the official site.

So many aspiring personal accountants in this thread.

If you want a 7 day beta pass PM me.

Shut yer trap. You have no idea how I spend my money. This is literally the first time in years that I have spent ANY money on a game. Perhaps I'm just more passionate about this one and you should fuck off over to a thread for a game that you're actually interested in and stop spamming the same...

what Thank you for helping me see the wrongness in my ways oh wise one. I will now ask for a refund. I didn't realize that some people here take 100 bucks so seriously, and I was wrong for underestimating the values. Christmas is coming, and perhaps some people might be reflecting their own...

This is one of my biggest fears for the game. I don't think what they are doing right now is a bad idea, like I've said countless times already, and I'm sorry to repeat myself again. Once they start charging for every little thing, implementing pay2win, or in any way giving any kind of real...

I'll be enjoying Landmark, and you'll be spending your money on whatever stupid shit you spend it on anyway. Can't we all be happy with our own stupid shit?

A van down by a river. I might also try my hand at some classic dungeons depending on how much time I have.

I agree with the lameness. The beta keys are time limited, the titles are useless to me, and the outfits don't really interest me. My name in the credits? Who watches those anyway? What's the point? The only in game perks that I might enjoy would be the mastercraft bracer, maybe the pickaxe, and...

It's an ALPHA. The progress is going to be wiped. I don't see anything that is forcing people to buy any of these packs. They are simply extra options for people who are interested in the game enough to want to play a pre-beta version of the game. The extras are neat, but useless. If they can...

That's a bit of a silly argument. For a variety of reasons. For instance, I have a full time job and my free time is limited. I simply don't have time to get down and dirty with these games, while the dev tools in Landmark will be integrated into the core gameplay. However, the most important...

I don't find the connection between my shitty job and play testing EQNL early. Maybe if my job was new and exciting or in a MMO world and not a fracking full time job with a scumbag boss then I would agree with you, and my quality of life would go up immensely as well if that was the case. I get...

Well, as far as voxel building goes, I would rather be in the shoes of the dude building a giant defensible tower in a few minutes than laying an even number of blocks in a row countless times until I have something that looks like a wall or a building. If Landmark dude wants to min/max his...

It really is easy to forget. I fell into the same hole myself multiple times during this pre-release hype hoopla of theirs, and I'll probably end up back in it a couple more times before this is over. I'm actually the most surprised that SoE is surprising me. Here's hoping that it's an ongoing...

I'm talking about Landmark, and I think it looks amazing. The most recent video got me pumped. I never really cared about anything related to Planetside 2, but I've heard it has been getting better. Anyway, the voxel design tool set that they are offering players looks very impressive, which is...

You anti-fanboys can hate it as much as you want. They are showing true quality in their recent endeavors, and I plan to capitalize on it by throwing my money at it and potentially enjoying it someday.

I dunno, two games, one appeals to me and one doesn't. It's not so much as fuck you Trion as, my opinion is thus. Also, I think it's more of an issue with Trion not having enough quality/demand to be able to charge for alpha access, while Sony clearly has such. Free is obviously much better in...

Those building tools are pretty amazing. I'm impressed, and I think if they keep the trend going for other parts of the game it's going to be The Next Best Thing (TM).

Knock it off Trion.

I will be in alpha. What else would I spend my game money on? I don't see enough interesting games lately to justify not spending the money on EQNL. Looks like a Chinese knock off of CubeWorld. They should rename it to CubeLand

They are playing on the fact that many of us MMORPG enthusiasts are bored off our asses right now waiting to try something new and interesting out, and they are dangling it over our heads for just a few bucks. They are doing it because they can. They know people will buy into it, and why turn...

Everytime I start to think about how this is going to be an amazing game that captures millions of gamers for many years, my mind starts to wander back to the days of SOE Live and a little bit of hope dies inside me.
