anyone?
they have dungeons that are like WoW's. The game is pvp/pve focused but leans a little more towards pvp. The endgame consists of player manned ships that you actually fly/gun and to to different floating islands for loot from dungeons and such. You store all the loot you and your fellow players obtain in your ship which can be taken over by an enemy ship. Theres alot more at this link

It seems very interesting.
thanks for the info, do u know if there will be PvP and PvE servers?
PVP is completely faction based except in Arena's & Goblinball (a football game...with a lot of violence involved you can fight against your own side or the enemy).
PVP / PVE servers aren't necessary since the begining parts of the game for each faction take place in areas you can't travel too as the opposing faction BUT...when you reach around lvl 20 or so the areas become open PVP areas (like RvR in WAR), your PVE quests take place in this area. This area is dangerous alone...so its rather easy to find a group to go and PVE in the PVP areas...you just have to watch your back and be prepared to fight off the other side.
End game is traveling to "allods" or mystical islands to do various dungeons and raids...the Astral Space that you travel in to get to these areas are Open PVP areas and its all Ship Combat. YOu can try and travel around in your ship (all ships in that area are player or guild owned) but the moment the enemyf action sees you expect they might try and attack you..down your shields, down your engines and then board your ship. Once they're on the ship its all up front combat to keep them out of your treasure hold.
The Allods in that area are instanced so once you land you and your mates will be free to roam the allod island withotu interferece and look and fight for treasure.
Basically it would be pointless to make a PVP server since the entire game becomes PVP base once you reach areas that are accessable to both factions.
oh...well im not a fan of open world pvp, but im still gunno try this game out. it looks and sounds pretty good.
Open/mass PvP seems to work out MISERABLY in F2P/Micro games more often then not...
Open PvP stuff doesn't start until around lvl 20 and then its really more like an RVR zone where your PVE quest are just in dangerous areas. You should try and find a closed beta key and come try it out or wait for the Open beta next month.

i would, but im playing RoM atm. i really like it and dont want to stop playing it. but where could i get a beta key? if i were to change my mind.
couldn't get into rom myself the characters were just to stiff for my liking
well its not for everyone i guess. i just got my closed beta key for allods =D i guess MMORPG.com just got those 10000 of them today, so i grabbed one. guess ill be trying that out after all.
is this pando thing safe? it says its going to download pando media player....
