You lucky dawg

I look forward to hearing your opinion in how she drives.

Since I don't really play UO anymore, and E&B didnt hold my attention, I hope this one pulls through.

I've never played UO yet. I beta tested E&B, was a great game. JUST DAMN THOSE MONTHLY FEES. lol.

You lucky Arch, give us da scoop.

I intend on doing a full blown SWG experience. I am at the sony boards a lot and here are my thoughts atm.

scs (single character server): sucks... I like to have my tradesman but I must MUST have my pvp char... with only 200 total skill points I wont be able to do trade skills at all

Force sensitive slot: pretty cool Idea, If I open one then I will try to make a jedi for sure, he will be my combat dude and I can use my "normal" slot for trades (see above)... what does suck a little is permadeath if a Jedi gets killed... but oh well, getting there is most of the fun anyway :p...

looks like a winner game with UO designers heading up the project and the backing of verants code writers (eq is verant for those that dont know)... add to that lucas arts keeping their world "sane" or with the storyline... should be a winner. Will proabably be a lukewarm start from the sounds of things, cutting this or that to make deadlines.

Then again I beta'd and did AO for 24 months of live (you know, the beta you pay for)... so anything will look like a DREAM compaired to ..Step... step... step ... server crash over and over and over lol. AO was fun, but what a pos piece of coding.

nuff rambling for now.

They just recently started trying to put the servers up 24x7. I haven't put as much time as I would like to into testing/playing. I'm going to try and pick it up this next couple weeks. I'll see what I can get for ya.

it was just announced that Galaxies will be delayed past April.

As soon as the "Beta 3" stage is started, they will release the new release date for the game.

---According to Steve Butts, of IGN

ARG! Why are all my MMORPG's being delayed repeatidly..?

Post by **Archangelus** » Sat Mar 15, 2003 12:40 pm

Because they all learned from UO that the community revolts when you rush a game out the door unfinished and try to do bug fixes that should have been done before as "updates".
