Title: Shadowrun Online.
Post by: Thanos on August 02, 2012, 02:11:44 AM
Shadowrun F2P MMO in the works. It's not what you would expect.

See here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODTXH63Hcbg&feature=player_embedded

Two ways to play. There's a kick starter for it.

They are working with the previously funded Shadowrun: Returns as well as the PnP crew at Catalyst Games. Tom Dowd is associated with them. Heck he approched them.

MMOs suck and shouldn't be kickstartered.

LOL. Here's the flip side. There should be no single player games. I had a bad experience once with one so they all must suck.

Look. I like both. There are things you can get in one you can't get in the other. Check out the links and if it's not for you it's not for you.

I hope it turns out well. I'm cautiously looking forward to it.

Info overlays. Different characters see the world differently.

I'm guessing this is a pc game with typical pc game specs :(

@Ghost Whistler. NO.  Go look at the kick starter. OUYA supported.

That will mean having to buy an ouya, an unproven console that will probably retail for silly money. Ok, not as much as a brand new pc but still a significant sum of money. Could they not have done this on existing consoles, even factoring in how shit Microsoft is?

And unless my maths has failed me they are barely half way to their goal.

A little over half way. It has picked up an amazing amount of money in the last couple of days but still needs help. If your console only then this isn't for you but you should actually check it out to see if it's for you.
