City of Steam might run in a browser, but it's just the same as any other mmorpg. If you're looking for a steampunk mmo, you'd be silly not to give it a go (imo).
I am in the same boat, OP (and all those who replied likewise).
There are some old gems still puffing away, but most of us have played them to death. Plus, they don't always sit well with the fluidity of modern games. Saying that, there is a hor…
I agree with the OP, despite what the devs may have posted in a forum somewhere. I'm not saying I disagree with what the devs may have written, I've just been listening to them pronounce it in videos and they definitely no not pronounce it "ark-age"…

Not much into stock anaylsis, but I can tell that down is bad.
Seriously though, I am a game developer and I…
An update:
One last look at my email before raising with bank and I have a response from support acknowledging error. They said they are refunding 2 subscription payments. Odd, I'm pretty sure there was only one payment taken.
I'll wait …
Henrik keeps going on about how an Asian version will allow Asian players to play it in their own language. What?!
Has he any clue what he is on about? If there is one language that unites the most Asians, it is English. Many Asian countries a…

Good call by your bank, mine often calls before processing any overseas e orders. Did you ever get you money back from SV or did have to report Fraud?
As of today I have not received a refund and/or a furth…
Very worrying. It appears they tried to charge my account 3 times, but the bank blocked the 2nd and 3rd transactions.
However, I wasn't even on a recurring subscription so they shouldn't have even charged once. Raised a ticket to be pointed to…

Press releases or marketing materials that are picked up on and chosen to be reported on by an agency is clearly different from "bought and paid for" advertising, which was the clear insinuation that I was clarifying.

Your quote is NOT his quote so I am not sure who you are quoting. His quote was "They paid for some marketing. I guess that's what this is." and since you yourself describe "marketing materials that are picked …

I dont see the lack of subscription preventing several fans sugatcoating the game.
I'm afraid I don't follow your argument - the only thing I read is, in your opinion, slap hasn't maintained an active subscriptio…

I believe Slap is capable of doing a more or less realistic report, without sugarcoating it as many fans would do. I tend to trust such people over the hardcore fans. If you look at his posting history, despite him hi…
Originally posted by Slapshot1188 The purpose of this thread is not to complain but to simply documeny my journey. I will list the good (great stranger just handing me pickaxes!) as well as the bad (file errors and crashes). Again, if you don't en…
Originally posted by shogunone Wow now you are accusing him of deliberatly deleting files to make errors to report on. Just wow.
No, I don't believe I did say that.
Do you deny that doing that would create the same error message?

For anyone following this thread, have a look at the OP's posting history.
For slappie, I shalln't descend into a flamewar. You know why I know those things.
For anyone wanting to recreate slappies errors, alt-tab out of game and delete …
I'm skeptical for the reasons stated.
Throw up a 5 minute video of fab and I'll be placated.
Long story short, I can't think of a time I could have taken that screenshot myself over the past 3 months - unless I was first on after the ser…
12 hour donwload and patch isn''t that bad for a 32gb game. If you're really sincere about exposing Mortal Online for the fraud it is, it would be helpful to quantify your porblems a little more. You're supposed to work in IT, right?
Aside fro…
Well, it wasn't entirely new faces for me, maybe a 50/50 split. My point was that out of the faces known to me, they probably accounted for a few % of the people I know play the game to this day. I was messaging people asking what they were up to an…
To my eye there was a fairly consitent 50-75 people scattered around the area, principally in 3 clusters. People were logging and joining, but numbers remained stable the 2 hours I was there. I don't think I saw any more than 2 representatives from …
I understand what you're saying, but traffic to this forum is high at the moment due to a certain article on mmorpg.com. I don't agree that locking the threads is enough because it means the attack was semi-successful during this busy period. I have…
