Very good idea. A shame they did not seem to realize the project needed more development prior to launch. Personally I felt that the game needed about another 4-6 months of development work (and maybe another month or two of testing/bug hunting) before launch.

The basic mechanics and premise of the game are fine IMO, but some things still needed work.

Only 50$ million for the Fallout IP? That would have been a steal. Really looking forward to FOOL. Hopefully Interplay can assemble a good team of folk to work on it.

How I mine for stock options?

If SW:TOR flops, millions of voices will suddenly cry out in nerd rage. Hopefully it is not a 300 million dollar, 20gig install voiceover failure.

Even with the release pushed back, it sounds like a lot is being cut to make launch. Light manipulation powers gone? That is a darn shame, I loved the earlier videos that were shown off with this particular powerset. At least certain things (wind, etc.) have gotten folded in under nature/weather control it seems.

I am really enjoying all this Earthrise coverage. Why? Well while I am mildly interested in Earthrise itself and may give it a shot... more importantly it is the Earthrise engine that is being used for Fallout Online (FOOL).

Suddenly Monty Python comes to mind.

Mmmm. Zombies.

I definitely like the sound of this game. Minecraft Multiplayer meets L4D.

Definitely looks chaotic. Makes me think its a clip of a PvP fight. Glad to finally see what combat may look like at launch with all kinds of powers going off everywhere. Messy... but could be fun.

"Stahl admits that the team doesn't have the resources to beef up the Klingon side to be on par with the Federation, especially since only a fraction of the playerbase fight on that side."

True... and one of the really good reasons only a fraction of the playerbase play as Klingons is because they have such a limited set of content. Comparisons to monster play from LotRO still seem apt. Hard to imagine they were even thinking of adding Romulans or some other faction unless they are willing to work on the existing faction that really needs it.

Of course this is the result many folk predicted prior to launch, that the Klingons would be an underdeveloped faction and never have the same breadth of content as the Federation.
