[SunnyD]

Yes... I am trying to keep a straight face right now, but failing miserably.

Yet another ... beta announcement ... (laughing)

brought to you by (REALLY laughing now) SunnyD.

 

[rcpratt]

Looks like it was made in '99. Surprise!

 

[JSt0rm]

from a business point of view - smart as the ip is in public domain.

 

[simonizor]

So if I play this game and announce that I don't believe in God, does it damn me to hell for all of eternity?

 

[pontifex]

Depending on how it was designed, it might not be that bad. If it's just there to promote Christianity then no, it will suck, but if it's an mmo set in the same time period that the story of the bible takes place with all the heaven and hell, demons vs. angels shit, it might actually be interesting.

 

[Glitchny]

... I see Epic Trolling in this games' future.

 

[shortylickens]

I predict a lawsuit between God and Bill Gates.

 

[El Guaraguao]

Can I be Lucifer?

 

[murphy55d]

Why couldn't Cryptic have gotten this license and not Neverwinter?

 

[SunnyD]

This thread has lots of lulz. Keep it coming!

 

[bunnyfubbles]

lol, I'd love to see some someone/group find a way to grief

 

[Barfo]

Looks like it was made in '99. Surprise!

Well the world was created just 6000 years ago so...not that old.

 

[Soccerman06]

This looks like a freakin rts game than an mmo.

 

[I Saw OJ]

Whats up with the background on their signup page?

 

[ivan2]

^^^ their other games

 

[Teknic]

Look at the spelling and grammar errors right on the front page.

"...symstem of RTS..."

"...players can create their nomadic tribes and be upgraded..."
---so you upgrade people? As in Deus Ex?

"...you can meet 'Abraham' and his descendants..."
--improper use of quotation mark

"...chosen by the God..."
--so is God is an occupation, like "the boss"...or like "The Todd" from Scrubs?

This game is going to be sweet. Now why can't foreigners learn English like us.

 

[Malak]

Can I be Lucifer?

Catholic priests didn't exist in the bible times.

 

[Dumac]

Jesus confirmed for OP.

Gonna get nerfed in patch 1.01

 

[LumbergTech]

unable to sign up due to region

 

[Elcs]

unable to sign up due to religion

Fixed!

I can hear the cries "Mommy mommmy, I can't go to church now. I'm on a quest with Jesus and the disciples to vanquish The Devil. He's an end-game raid boss"

 

[Vonkhan]

epic griefing to follow!

 

[AyashiKaibutsu]

Diablo 2 you go on a quest to vanquish the devil, but I remember reading some christian review site for the lulz where they panned it.

 

[mmntech]

Can I be Lucifer?

Can I be Kratos?

 

[darkxshade]

This is a great mmo, I'm not saying this because I work for the company that make it but I'm saying it because a lot of thought and hard work was put into it to make it genuine and true to life. What do I mean? Well I was in charge of writing code to create the character of God for this game. Basically your character gets to pray at any time for anything and nothing happens. I was very careful not to let God interact with the characters/players in-game in any way. God is virtually bug free at this point and all it took was 0 lines of code. So you can imagine just how perfect the rest of the game is since God was perfected so easily.

 

[skace]

Looks like you stole my Satan code for your God code.... hmmmm
