[Megathread] The Repopulation - Sci-Fi Sandbox MMO

[Vargur]

Please.
Many years ago I was psyched for Face of Mankind... similar to this one. What a disappointment that was.

[Buckwald]

I was excited for SWTOR, TSW, GW2 and they were all fairly large let downs for me. But, that doesn't stop me from being hopeful.

[philefluxx]

Great interview. Im starting to get excited.

Environment graphics look outdated by 8 years. Character graphics look outdated by 5 years. And the game isn't out yet. Doesn't look good.

I think not

Bringing this back from the dead but I've just found out that if you backed for $100 or above you've got permanent alpha access now (previously was just 1 weekend!) and those who backed at $25+ will be getting in soon based on whether you backed in round 1/2/3

So if like me, you backed a long time ago and then mostly forgot about it - check your pledges to see if you've got a key, because I didn't get an email or anything when they issued me an alpha key.

Is the link to check your status.

There's an NDA though so remember even if you can play right now (I'm playing!) you can't actually say anything about it

[procne]

Actually, if you have backed in the first Kickstarter (2012) at all then you should have full access now. I paid 50$ in first Kickstarter and I'm in

I've been closely following, but strangely there's no let's play videos of Repop being anywhere! Is there an NDA? I doubt it but am struggling to understand why no one is covering this really awesome project.

[procne]

Yes, there is NDA. It's still Alpha

It's very early, quite frankly any let's plays right now I feel would be detrimental to the project. It's one thing to get genuine testers in for feedback but it's not at a hype-building or promotion ready stage. There is an NDA and still only a small percentage of kickstarters have access.

Now here's some truly innovative MMORPG healing!

Now, if onl ths game could open up alpha to all backers now! Still waiting.

[procne]

Uhm, what exactly is so innovative about it? Healing classes in WoW also had various spells in vanilla - big heals, small heals, instant heals etc.
It's easy to say "there will be many playstyles". However, reality may show that only 1 or 2 of them are viable.

I have to agree with you, i whis i handnt tougth.

Aniway i saw a bit of the website and the game sound appealing, are the any "let´s play" types of vídeos already?

[procne]

No, the game is still in alpha, and under NDA. So no player made screenshots or videos. The only info you may get is from developers, on the webpage. However, beta is planned to start by the end of the year

Really? Nowhere near ready for beta last time I played it. Combat is worse than SWG on that SWGemu server.

I love the idea of this game, but have zero confidence on them to develop it properly unless it is in beta for 10 years. May turn out to be a good building game.

It's combat healing; you can actually be in the fight and still do your job as a medic. While running! No need to lay back and just be dummy who presses rotation heals; you can run around with a shotgun and actually play the game rather than be some supplement to a raid group.

Definitively the longest list of patch notes ever ever written.

[WskyDK]

I get the newsletters from when I donated like a year ago. Completely ignored them until now.
