Earthrise gameplay - Desert (BETA)

[deathc0rR3]

arent there any monsters there to kill??

[Saexism]

arent there melee attacks? i wanna have a huge sword with electricity and mash those fools around

[xDesignzLTU]

well the game will be free to play in 2012 then il look if its fun xD maybe the bugs are fixed

[Alex516010]

I heard this game was going f2p and saw a trailer and thought "this game sounds realy cool, finaly a good version of Face of Mankind."

After watching this I realized I'll be stuck playing Face of Mankind waiting every two weeks to see what the devs have to add to make the game better before advertising (Not a bad game just needs more work).

[MrOrochimaru300]

BOOOOOOOOOORING!!!!



[killerbumble]

Fallout Online is apparently going to be using this Engine....

[hehehe88]

unless this is going to have real upgrades to the engine, Fallout Online just lost my money.

[zZulloZz]

i cant believe fallout online is going to have the same engine as that one

lame

s.m.a.r.t. was awesome :(

[Gadzooks42]

Its a shame that time and money is being spent still on this game. Companies need to know when to cut their losses, and do it before they sucker players into spending money and time, only to shut the game down a few months later.

[Finfid]

Soo, how was that not a "review"?

[bushwhacker2k]

I feel like all I'm doing is bashing this but jeez, the strategy is just constant backpedelling with constant shooting? The point of having to actually aim is that things will be fast-paced...

Also quests need to be more than "kill x of this thing" or "talk to blah" or "collect x of blah", it really isn't that hard to make things more interesting, you just have to give the area and the things inside it personality. I'm really started to hate MMOs, I hadn't realized it until I posted these.

[bushwhacker2k]

Overall, it seems kinda interesting, but a lot is just using the same boring MMO formula that no one is interested in. The NPCs just stand there with symbols over their heads, they give one paragraph of meaningless text that the character tends to not care about, the enemies just wander around until a player gets near enough then it's pretty much just a punch out, both guys beat each other until one falls. It's not all bad but MMO devs need to start trying more new things.

[bushwhacker2k]

It sounds like this suffers from what Tabula Rasa (RIP) did, that even though it's technically not turn-based, things just take so long to kill that it gets really tedious. It really shouldn't be that way, things should go down fairly quickly and they should make the trade-off that enemies can also hurt you a lot as well.

[bushwhacker2k]

What's the obsession with desert wastelands? Games are supposed to be interesting, right? What are desert wastelands? Large and empty and dull.

Frankly, the game does look nice, but it's really empty looking, I think they should take the time to go through and actually make it look inhabited or something. I think interiors should be done more than exteriors, but that's rarely done in MMOs.

[zerthagor]

im thinking of buying this or rift but im not sure what would you prefer

[pvtspartan]

@zerthagor FALLOUT ONLINE WILL BE USING THIS ENGINE SAFE YOUR CASH FOR THAT!!! i played rift its fun but when it comes to getting armor and uniqe items it lacks

[zerthagor]

nice graphics

[148word]

Lol, so, can you shoot or is that a lock-on that I am seeing? And you cant even choose when to shoot? It's just an mmo. How dare anyone call this an fps...

[Wolz]

The Game looks a lot like Tabula Rasa... a former Sci-fi MMORPG, which went down, i'm just afraid this game might have same fate, does anybody have any idea's if it will ?

[MrKrystian1992]

do u really have to pay for this?

[nusferatum]

WOW, i think i yawned more than the amount of bullets u fired!!! thnx for the upload m8. I definitely WILL not be buying this sorry excuse for a game.

[derallter]

Waiting for Firefall, still.

[MrSn4rk]

Keep up the good work, bro ;)

[josjikawa]

boring.. empty flat maps, boring combat, dull sounds. and all that for 50bucks, what a ripoff

[spandexninja]

why cant they do a mmorpg with real shooting instead of this calculator 12 sided die dungeons and dragons shooting

[xSakijix]

@spandexninja Yeah, totally ruined Entropia Universe for me.

[MrThreadSpool]

Global Agenda + Avatar VG? Aw, crap.

[vato76]

Thanks for the review.

[Zyphirr]

yawn to gameplay, applaud on commentary

[alexilaiho1st]

thanks for showing how it's boring...

[Jayremy89]

Does this game require like superb population to work? Seems like it.

Large world is nice, BG sounds are great.

Lack of creatures NPC seems bad

I think they need much more NPC, lower their HP, make it actually have that FPS feel, it would be a major plus.

[TheOuroboros84]

"without gamma rays you wouldn't have some of the best marvel superheroes..." YOU FUCKING NAILED IT MAN!!! HULK ALL THE WAY!!!

[TheProjecteVo]

I knew this game is shit few years ago. Stick to (Fallout) Project V13.

[SuperColossal33]

WOW i cant believe i was interested in this game months ago...

this was one of the stupidests things ive ever seen.

[ulvmarine]

Earthrise Online Full Game - Download For Free! Hack /watch?v=-juw8WPeHv8

[Keroda86]

saved me from wasting my time downloading and trying this "uber" game, thx

[gem98088]

Doesnt look that bad.. and its a beta.. looks like it has potential imo.

[DARKOBYSS]

i agree with the combat if it takes that long to kill something it may not be worth it to me

[DJAmsterdam22]

wtf it took one full minute to kill that one mob with the shot gun. lol what the hells. This i hope they fix the environment and change the character animations because they are so boring.

[humanspam]

Whenever I get excited about a new sandbox game, the combat always turns out mundane :(

Thanks for the upload.

[Toxemia83]

Had high hopes, but realize now this game sucks and is a no go. It's a shame too cause the idea was awesome.

[Shizune19720]

holy shit this look horrible how can anyone put this kind of game out i mean this looks so bad i am willing to play WoW over this

[KamilWow]

Check out Global Agenda guys, it's cheap and pretty good pvp.

[Requiemfortherev]

graphics whore...

[MattyEFC121]

he EVEN sounds bored..... lol

[cosy18]

dud when did you made a trip in the forest i dint get to see a bear a wolf or something just fucking trees and hills

[Sejdr]

Strange that so many are stupid enough to base their opinions on ONE video!

After checking out the EarthRise Roadmap (at their site) and reading a lot about the game I will try the game next month or so.

[zvermilion]

wow, was thinking about buying the game and this video has completely changed my mind, thanks for saving me 50 buck to find out how lame the game is myself. maybe it will get better but till then that game looks like it blows.

[GameStrafe]

@zvermilion You're very welcome. ;)

[higghigghigghigg07]

@zvermilion

If you're fan of the Fallout series, well, Fallout: Online is rumoured to be using this exact game engine.

[zvermilion]

@higghigghigghigg07 lol, I can't wait to be dissapointed in that too then :(

[stevenshl2]

Hey, thanks for uploading this video. Shame the game doesn't look too interesting to play. I'll consider a purchase maybe once they actually finish it.

[GameStrafe]

@stevenshl2 You're welcome, and ya I feel the same.

[pinglauwa]

"Gamma Raaays" =o

[PlayerAlpha]

after watching ur video,

I refrain from playing this boring game, XD

just like Fallout, u empty the entire magazine all shots were head shots and the monster still wouldnt die.

[GameStrafe]

@PlayerAlpha Thats what the vids are for, getting the information out there, good or bad. ;)

[TehMorbidAtheist]

@PlayerAlpha

get a couple of fallout new vegas mods for pc that create realistic damage. One shot to the head = instant death

[deaconx]

WOW they have a great looking game and brilliant concept ... but their completely going to fuck it up with so many terrible design choices, ridiculous progression and boring gameplay.

This COULD HAVE BEEN amazing... with much more intelligent and creative people in charge.

[marioolivier24]

The graphics look ok but man the combat seems to suck. Took ages to kill that guy.

[TheWaaaagh]

it sux soo bad, Guild Wars way better

[Irrehaare]

I have to say apart of the performance issues, animations I like the quality of graphics. It is a shame that you can't see players and mobs from further away then 100 m ( ? ) but you can hardly go beyond that range in any other MMO. I don't mind the state of the quests HOWEVER I like them to be replaced with some other game mechanics like mobs attacking cities, mines ( incoming feature as I red on the forums ).

[GameStrafe]

@Irrehaare Thats the issue, the game just lacks content, I think it just needs another six months to a year.

[RemovdSande11]

I lol"ed at the gunsounds... for 100 bucks I could have made better sounds than that :P

the game looks blant and boring, let's check it again in 6 months :)?

[cyflar]

Well one things for sure..this game involves a lot of running

[jman19mwi]

<,< global agenda way better then this!

[ielemi]

ok I am not trying this game, takes way too long to kill a mob.

[Jetara]

Looks bad enought to keep the WoW-Rofl-owned-brainsurgery-co­mpletly-failed-Crew out of it and good enought to have some hope left that after some patching it will be great. I think i´ll give it a try, as SWG Veteran I still wait for a Game to be as good. Any rumors about housing maybe?

[TachikomaSama]

The combat isn't so bad. As for how many rounds you have to put into something.... the reason why it take this long at times is because different weapons have different range If I do recall, the gun he is using for example has an optimum range of 40m, and the mob will attempt to keep you at it's optimal range. So standing in one place will usually drag combat on.

If you do use the correct ranges, things actually tend to die quicker. IE That rifle for long range, shotgun at med range etc

[Rellicus]

Wow, that combat system looks completely boring. How many rounds do you have to put into something to kill it? In the future they have guns that are LESS deadly? They need to increase the amount of monsters by a LOT and make them much weaker individually. This game is out in less than a month? LAWL. Also, when he strafes without a weapon in his hand it looks like he has a full load in his trousers.

[MaceUK71]

@Rellicus It's out next week not next month as far as I had heard.

[Barbadian2k8]

GameStrafe thanks for the vid. I think some of your issues with the game revolve around the fact you are forgetting this is a sandbox. IE: Being directed to PvP, and 'what to do', it'll be very guild orientated/crafting/resource/l­arge scale PvP, player driven, not NPC driven. As opposed to Warhammer Online, small scale scenario type/repetitive open world pvp theme-park.

[GameStrafe]

@Barbadian2k8 Ya I get what you're saying, however, in order to obtain battle points and credits to purchase skills, you need to engage in PVE and do quests. So if those aspects are limited, featureless, or dull it makes progression rough. This then leads to only the hardcore grinders succeeding at PVP.

[CjAdams1982]

@GameStrafe So they give no battle points for doing PVP?

[GameStrafe]

@CjAdams1982 You get BP for most everything, which I believe includes PVP as it's the focus of the game, I just haven't been able to get into much of the combat yet so I don't know how much you get.

[Irrehaare]

@CjAdams1982 You can dry loot your victim and he loses everything except what he has insured.

[Irrehaare]

@GameStrafe I have to agree with this comment. Even Tabula Rasa solved that issue better, does anyone remember the front-lines which were a constant fighting against the aliens and mobs attacking Outposts ? It as great features as if you stayed passive you would lose your nearest base of operation, access to NPCs, fast transport ( drop-ships LZs) and crafting stations. It gave you REAL motivation to defend and take back Outposts.

[mecamind]

fight scenes are awful how many bullets can it take to kill one mob?!

[GameStrafe]

@mecamind Some of those mobs were what they call a higher "battle rating" than I was, but it takes too long to even kill rats in this game, gets quite annoying.

[oooCopykillooo]

nice preview ! thx

[SgtPitt]

thx for the preview
