MMOFTW Live - Ep 12 - Touring Firefall

This week's episode is plagued (for the final time, mark our words) some technical difficulties, but Red 5 Studios' Scott Youngblood stops by to talk the week that was in MMOs with Bill, Rob, and Garrett, plus show the boys around Firefall's recent PVE game overhaul.

fire fall is the shit hope the final starts adding more zones.

The words of someone that dosen't know what beta testing is :)

Seriously, if Red5 was a normal company, then we wouldn't be allowed to test the game this early. They are letting us play, years before most other companies would even think about it.

They are still trying to set the core features in stone, atm. There isn't much content in the game, because they are yet at that stage, where they make it.

Red 5 needs to hire a PR rep... or better yet, don't. One thing I really look at when I'm feeling out a game is how corporate is the mentality of the people making it? I know a manager when I hear one talk. I honestly have to ask, has this guy even played the game, or is he too busy creating next week's time sheet on excel? At this point, I'd have to see something pretty amazing to even want to try this game, free or not.

u played in the beta weekend... i'm in the 24/7 beta... dont hate after just 2 days of play bruh :)

tel me... how many MMORPS (massively multiplayer online role playing shooter) games have u played to date??? red5 is adding to the variety by devving a f2p game that is of AAA standard...no one's asking u to play it if u dont want to... :) ppl who like it can play it... dont hate! also firefall has one of the best pvp spectator modes created in any mmo to date.... well tbh it's one of the best in any genre out there to date...

[xyr3s]

there is a story.... if u've played in the beta u would know this.... if u havent... well.... just so u know... there is indeed a story :) may not be a gw2, skyrim, type story.... but there is a story

[sabfleet1985]

It sounds like there is a lack of direction. They should have had a more defined pin point story. You need a reason to why you are running around killing shit.

schteen...jesus.

[ChowderOfClams]

Whatever man, your opinion, my opinion, I had fun, you didn't. We'll leave it at that.

Firefall is like a brussel sprout, while you can force them down and keep telling yourself its good for you. Eventually you move on to something yummier and better overall. Vegans will love this game!
