Just go to that site. Read about it. Look at the screenshots. Do the very complicated install(you download 5 smaller parts[each 20 mb], then a reassembler). Start playing.
I haven't played yet, but reading about it and looking at the screens...it just looks amazing. And from what I can find, you don't have to give up any personal info, either!

I solved the character creation problem but now I can't get into the game itself <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Btw. my first post in this forum. =)
Too good to be true?
Nay. I haven't played it yet, but looking at the website it is in a REALLY early stage of development.
I.E, pre-alpha. That is the official name for the state it's in.
There are currently no shops, and there is one dungeon containing no monsters, as there is no combat system <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
Well, worth dloading and looking at in a couple of months.
And its nothing like Planetside. Much more like Everquest. BUT I'M STILL FRICKIN EXCITED!
Jin-roh: So do I.

2-3 YEARS?<!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->? AAAAAARGH!!!
It's like waiting for 2.0 all over again!
If anyone knows whatever language this game is coded in, for god's sake help them out! I can't wait 3 years for this!
Well.... there is, if you just want to see what this game COULD be.
From the looks of it it will be at least 1/2 a year until this becomes a 'game'.
Right now from the sound of it all you can do is explore, and do quests which don't involve combat.
Yay.
Time to put this to one side, foget about it, then find it again in a year <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Still Downloading ....
Hope its good...
I'll test it in the morning....
MMORPG will eventually turn me into an atrophied, smelly lump
NS lets me play when I want without getting addicted.
NS is winnar!
If you see me playing this, kick me in the face, please.
Looks good though, I remember a few years ago reading in PC Gamer about how future MMORPGs would be free but would have advertising. Like in a futuristic space MMORPG you might see a floating billboard for Pepsi or something, as long as they don't start naming items commercially ("The RCA Robot drops a Nike Ring of Speed +3!") I don't mind.
I'm with you. If we set it up now itl be ready for combat, or we could be merchants or somethin.

what in the holy flying fjuck was the point, relevance, or vague relatedness of that reply?
anyway... does anyone know exactly what they're working on implementing currently? like... monsters... killing... quests in which you retrieve items from monsters you killed...
mm?
Those screenies look <i>hot</i>.
Anyone actually played it yet though?
<sarcasm>
Oh, you mean like CS, DoD, and even NS right?
</sarcasm?
HOLY CRAP! THE DAMNED GRAPHICS! MY SPLEEN....MUST SELL! WOOOHOOOO!
Ok, now, notice that for me good graphics is Q3, being my vc suxorz. But on to what I actually think...
The architecture is...amazing. I'm telling you, you may just wanna look at some of the buildings for a long time.
Character creation is deep and involving, while not seeming...overwhelming.
Its easy to be immersed as a person.
It was fun for while I was playing.
Now, on to the issue of combat...
Their planning on having it in by December, and HIGHLY RECCOMMEND exploring before then, because they are pretty sure most won't be able to venture far outside town at that point, because it gets hard fast.
Their also planning on having 3 more races available, and another 200 items.
I really am liking this, can't wait till combats in.
Yeah I bet all that Charlie Cleeveland et al wanted is constellation donations.. um yeah that must be it, their secret pla...conspiracy, right?
