Boy I hate that pit , xD!

 

Really enjoyed the first one... It got a little repetitive fast (in my opinion) but quite indeed a good game.

 

Looking good! Just hope it doesnt feature *much* aerial combat... from my previous experience, most players want to see aerial combat in mmos and stuff, because they dont know what they want =P real 3D fighting and movement make things hard to precisely control... but checking the website to know more about it =)

 

I thought it had a free trial period for new players... actually, hows GW2 faring these days, public wise?

 

New over here, Im an indie game dev in Brazil looking for feedback on my newest game, so I thought, why not go to a MMO forum? =P

Anyway, its good to be here, I didnt know this forum but if I can get the time I sure hope to be around from time to time.

Cya!

 

Watch the (pre alpha) version Trailer here:

Like a Boss! - Independent Games Festival Trailer - YouTube

If you want to know more about the project, let me know, I have the honor to be working on the development of this game, and we are looking not only for feedback but also people interested in participating in our closed beta/alpha stages to help us make the game what it deserves to be.

Without further spam messages =P, hope you like it!

Thanks for your attention,
Cya!

 

Great! I'll try to pick one up soon.

 

I sure can!

Actually, in this game its the other way around. You are the Boss, and the players are the NPCs. After much thought, the bosses of the world found a way to gain access to the most powerful weapon of mass destruction... Experience Points... and now, your objective is to level up every and each Boss in the world to make it the ultimate player-killing machine.

The game is still in its early development stages, to be more precise, we are only 2 months into development, so there is a huge ton of stuff we want to add. The arena you see in the video is the headquarters of the Skeleton King, one of many bosses that can be controlled by you. You can customize each headquarter with traps and new features that grant you bonuses, such as dark altars, alchemy labs, etc.

We have also some cooperative/competitive player bashing features in the roadmap, such as Global objectives and all out war against the players, where hundreds of raid bosses raid the players' fortresses, and there is a huge skill tree to make each boss unique.

You start off with weaker bosses, but you are able to turn them into powerful beasts with items, upgrades and gems, and only the most powerful of the bosses can hope to kill the king of the players.

As you can check out in the video, the idea is that the "heroes" really feel like players, they complain about imbalances, they get lag, their mouse batteries run out, they whine a lot... and at the same time giving you the epic feeling of stomping dozens of enemies simultaneously. We want the "real players" to feel like they truly are the boss, and that no one can match their power.

 

Definitely the best choice. Welcome!

Third Public Test of Update 8.9
Third Public Test of Update 8.9 | General News | World of Tanks



The third public test is now open.
Update 8.9 is coming, and it’s time to test the changes! The World of Tanks development team needs to conduct a thorough test and they want you to take part.

The development team want to make the game as good as possible and getting your feedback is a big part of that. Taking part in the public test is your chance to let us know your thoughts and suggestions on forthcoming updates. This means we can review your feedback and make any further changes before the update goes live.

All World of Tanks players are eligible to take part in the public test as long as they registered before 1st October 2013. You don’t need to be an experienced tester to join in; you just need to be willing to try out as many of the new features as you can and send us your feedback!



Main Features of Version 8.9
New German Tank Destroyer tech line
Added T-34-3 and 112 Chinese Premium vehicles to the in-game shop
New North American map: “Northwestâ€
Optimized “Swamp†and “Erlenberg†map performance
Encounter battle option for “Erlenberg†map
New game mode: “Team Battlesâ€
For the full list of changes, please visit the In Development section on our website.



How the Public Test Works
When it is time to run a public test, the developers will release a test version of the client. This can be downloaded by following the instructions below. Make sure that you follow all of the instructions carefully, so that you don’t accidentally cause problems to your main play account.

Your test client account will usually be a copy of your play account, meaning that all the vehicles purchased and research that you have completed will be the same. However, please note:

The test account is completely separate to your normal account. Achievements and research that you complete on the test client will not be carried over to your play account.

Financial transactions are not possible on the test server and payments will not be accepted.

Depending on the needs of the test, your test account may be credited with gold, credits or experience.

The test server is subject to the same EULA and general rules as the World of Tanks game server. This means that you still need to play nice, or face the usual consequences just the same as on the official game server.

All test accounts will receive a one-time credit of:

100,000,000 free XP
100,000,000 credits
20,000 Gold
The rate of credits and experience gain will not be increased for this test.



Feedback
Once you have logged into the test client, you are encouraged to play as much or as little as you want. Feel free to try out all the new features and see what you can do!

Once you have been playing for a while, please let us know your feedback by posting to these special forum threads: The first is for bug reports and the second is for general feedback about the test version. The community managers will collect up all your responses on the thread and send them to the developers.

The sort of feedback we are particularly interested in includes:

Any bugs or glitches that you have found in the game. Got stuck in the scenery? Game crashes when you do a certain action? Tell us all about it!
Honest feedback about vehicles and game mechanics. If you think something doesn’t function well, then please tell us.
Anything you particularly like? Do you love the new stats for a previously underpowered vehicle? Confirm to the developers that the community is now satisfied with that feature, letting them focus on other new improvements.


How to Join the Public Test

Eager to get going? Follow the instructions below to join the test!

Log in and start playing. Remember to post your feedback to this forum thread.
Please be aware of the following:

In order to make the test experience more efficient, it may be necessary to limit the number of players on the test server. . If the server is full when you log in, you’ll be placed into a queue.

The test server will be restarted regularly, according to the following schedule:

First Periphery: 07:00 CEST (05:00 GMT) every EVEN day of the month. Average duration will be around 25 minutes.
Second Periphery: 07:00 CEST (05:00 GMT) every ODD day of the month. Average duration will be around 25 minutes.
