    So these small server survival games are trying to play like mmorpgs and mmorpgs are trying to play like single player games.....sounds about right....

    The best way for small studios to get noticed and take off is to be innovative. Not jumping into a genre that's over-saturated.

    Clan based... yay...
    Maybe something for the ARK/Atlas players, another game that's tedious as hell if you don't play it with a large group.

    My SWTOR referral link for those wanting to give the game a try. (Newbies get a welcome package while returning players get a few account upgrades to help with their preferred status.)

    New World survival with Archeage naval combat... on land. All it needs is actual game to put these features into, and actually good combat mechanics, and they might be on to something.

    Any game that has "urmom" in the trailer is destined for GOTY greatness though.

    hell the animations look stiff like hell, and I think I did read about it before, nothing much really
    FOR HONOR, FOR FREEDOM.... and for some money.

    Looks like....um, just no. Not only is the market already saturated heavily. It's saturated with games that have had years in the Early Access oven to cook out a more polished product. And since this game is nothing new other than being Rust with a different aesthetic, it's not really that special. I'm sorry to be so critical, but they could have done many other things with the design.

    Looks cool. Its kinda like sea of thieves but on land and without the cartoony appeal.

    Am I the only one that found the video hilarious? 

    Those "vehicles" look ridiculous while moving. Also, video claims variation yet the final battle is the same vehicles just with a different colour banner.

    Graphically looks better than any survival game. Gameplay remains to be seen. Those mounts look cool AF tho.

    Looks kinda cool.

    Seems like Theo Jansen has been an inspiration for the devs.

    I have 2000+ hours in cRPG warband mod, 6 hours in Of Kings and Men. Maybe I will get more than 6 in this medieval mortal engines survival mmo. Well due to the nature of survival games I am sure I will get more just by having to do the same thing over a million times. :)

    I like his work, always have. The vehicles in this game? Not so much. They also kinda remind me of Zoids, (that toy from the 80's)

    I'm a huge sucker for survival base games, I properly own all them so far and I will buy this one as well.

    However, after playing New World and being a tester in that game since September, no survival game will come close to having the numbers that New World will bring.. Amazon has a gem on their hands and I can't talk much about New World but I promise they dev team is super active and always listening to player feedback and making changes like crazy and its got a really smooth combat system and blocking...

    I feel bad for any survival games coming out when New World comes out.... literally you guys will be amazed because even in super early alpha the game run flawless and the graphics are bangin.

    Well the trailers on Steam were amazing...which set my "harbinger" alarms off as it comes out of no where. 

    Some quick research shows Donkey Crew is the team who brought us Melee: Battlegrounds back in 2014.....not surprising if you never heard of it.

    Probably a good thing as the Steam comments point to a game which went early access, was promptly abandoned, renamed Of Kings and Men back in 2016, and abandoned once again, appears dead now.

    The team itself started in Belfast, relocated to China for a year, could not find suitable talent there, so recently relocated to Wroclaw Poland, understandably shedding some team members from the moves. 

    I think I'll be keeping my wallet firmly in my pocket for now, but I'm sure there will be plenty of folks willing to take the leap because....

    Buying crap games despite all the warning signs ...its just what gamers do these days.

    Its OK, saves me lots of money..... and provides new material to rail against.

    :D

    OKaM went under because they had GMG publishing who I think pulled the rug out from under them by taking over creative control.

    Oh yes, my favorite user comment from the Steam forums for the renamed version OKAM.

    "This game is officially dead, the devs and investors have BAILED entirely as of 2/5/2017.
    FUCK THIS GAME AND ITS MONEY STEALING RUSKI DEVS."

    Don't be fooled by the trailer. You know youll start naked in the middle of nowhere and have to punch trees, collect sticks and die to snakes to "progress". JUST like every other survival, no variation.

    I am the guy and the donkey in this video, I played cRPG mod pretty much free for 7+ years, my favorite mod/game (which still isnt totally dead) so I am willing to buy almost anything they try. I owe them that much for the amount of fun I had there.

    Somewhat true, they got in financial trouble after failing in a KSer, sold control to Warlock Wireless who appears to have punted much of the original team to the curb.

    Great article and I guess video (I never watch them)  on what happened which I also picked up from Steam.

    The real questions now include who exactly are these guys, where did they come from, and who funds them?

    I can appreciate the loyalty, but it would appear most of the team who built the original game are no longer with Donkey.
