Hey,
I used to beta Horizons, but by that time I had no cash to subscribe and my PC seemed also too weak to cope with it. In the meantime I usually only heard bad news about this game and I almost totally gave up.
And just yesterday as I stumbled across their boards due to boredness, I was suprised to find out, that the game is being revived!
Basically, the original developers of the game formed a company, and re-bought the whole game from IE (the last "publisher", who just kept destroying it). A lot of things are happening, the test server is back up, the forums are working and when I logged in yesterday evening I saw some close to 100 people on the server. That might look ridiculous for a population, but it is MUCH more than it was, say, a month ago.
So - this post is just to inform others who used to like/love this game, to take a look at it, as good things could be happening soon!
There is a 14-day free trial as well, no CC needed!

I wish them luck, Horizons always had a small but strong core community, one of the best, most pleasant player group out there next to Ryzom. Hopefully they get their game back and maybe more in the future. Horizons had some great ideas, its to bad they never were able to pull it all together.
Let me know when they launch a new server or wipe and existing one, and I will come back. Horizons is a fun game if you play it on a new world where nothing has been rebuilt yet, but playing on a 4 year old server is kinda pointless.
Its hard to wish horizons anything but good luck.It was a gem(at least in theory) twisted and abused by many cruel masters
