Screw You Guys, I'm Coming Back (well, Sort Of)

[Entropy]

Ok, after lots of talking and compromising and such, here is the deal:

I will start working at EL2, Learner (and maybe others) will work at EL1, and Roja will work at both.

EL2 will be very different from EL1, but some of the maps will be the same. It will also be a P2P game, no public alpha or beta testing. We will select those who we want to test the game, and we know who we will select. I estimate EL2 to become beta in the summer of 2005. More info about it later, I'll keep you up to date.

Oh yes, and it won't be a game for power gamers, it will involve strategy, a LOT of teamwork, player built cities, common research, maybe some city wars, etc.

Sounds good to me. I look forward to this greatly! I know it will be good.

[MikeH]

[Aluqah2]

I like that idea Ent. I can promise that i'll look forward to paying for such a game.

[death_merchant]

lol i will join if you let me...i will pay to play el....any day lol just ask

[Aluqah2]

Yea... i like the sound of the extra teamwork... We need more of that in MMORPGs

[Kougria]

The only thing about it is i cant play P2P games, cuz i dont have any money! But i would pay if i had the money!

[Aluqah2]

Lol, if you ever need more testers for it, I'd be happy to test it for you. Heh.... probably no chance, but may as well offer my services, right?

[Entropy]

The p2p is because the game design will be VERY vulnerable to multiple accounts problems. So people won't be able to have multipel accounts (unless if they pay double, in which case it is ok).

[Ryuu]

Oh yeah, welcome back Entropy

[Aluqah2]

I think i speak for the vast majority of EL when i say "Good to have you back, ent."

[Kougria]

Ya, if you ever need anymore testers i would gladly play it, i love el, and i would pay if i had the money and was allowed too!

[Tigger]

Yea... i like the sound of the extra teamwork... We need more of that in MMORPGs

That's why we have guilds .. Lineage is great about team work needed to siege castles .

[Aluqah2]

Touche.... but working beyond guilds would be good for us as well... not arguing or anything.

[Ryuu]

Yes, teamwork is good

[Entropy]

It will be FAR more team oriented than the actual guilds now.
