HOLY CRAP!! those screenshots of the legend of Mana game blew me away! You know...I hope someone decides to make a MMO RPG game for Half-life 2 because it should be completely free...that will teach squaresoft and blizzard about charging 20 dollars a month!! Not only that..the MMo will have a better engine to run it! I'm sorry...but I'm so giddy right now. I just can't wait for these mods...for one, they look completely spectacular and the best part of all....They are absolutley FREE!!!

This mod will never be completed, too ambitious.

Does nobody here remember all the HL1 mods that were 'annouced' and never amounted to anything more than some screenshots of maps and renders of models?

Those screens do look really nice.

But I really really doubt we'd ever see an actual free MMORPG on Source, because keeping those extremely fast servers up isn't a small price. Not to mention having quite a bit of them.

That mod looks promising though. Have to keep my eyes on them.

Creating the mod would be an acheavment in itself the amount of coding would be insane. And makeing it free every month someone has to pay for those servers you know.

I think these people are ready to go through with the project, just wondering how good the battling system will turn out.

The MMO (or XORG as they like to call it) Twilight War uses the Source engine. But will of course require a monthly fee, which isn't a strange or bad thing. You're using a continuous service they provide, that doesn't come for free.

i seriously doubt source can give mmo games a big graphical improvement. the fact that almost all mmo games have such a low polycount, low rez textures etc is due to the amount of people online, and the vast worlds that are within the game. and dont expect the psychics engine to be enabled, that would kill the servers, we arent ready for that kind of stuff in an mmo game.

TW is going to have physics and destructable objects. Keep in mind that it's coming out end 2005/2006.

hey! Guildwars is an upcoming mmorpg and thats gonna be FREE to play.
http://www.guildwars.com/
so if they could solve it, why shouldnt we be able to see this?

Guildwars is an upcoming mmorpg and thats gonna be FREE to play.

You'll still have to buy the game and theres no way they'll be able to keep the servers running without somekind of charge.

 

[Venmoch]

Thats because its not a "Proper MMORPG"

The main hub areas are but when you enter a battle the players computers make a server.

I hope for their sakes they worked out rights with Squaresoft.

Otherwise they are going to be presented with a cease and desist order.

it is couse servers cost money to main tain!
BUT, then why deos it not cost money to play none mmo's online?
hl1, hl2, are both great exsamples! free to play online! AND they even come out with patches! they have to pay those people to make patches you know? so why do mmo's cost money when all other patch making, server providing, game don't?
EDIT: i just came up with a new ryme! pay to play is gay
what ya think?
