You have to find out what secret society you belong to. You can become a member of Templars, Illumintis or Dragons. I fit into the Dragons :D

The screen shots and art work looks simply amazing!

Anyone heard about it?

I was also thinking of choosing the templar but the test showed I was a Dragon (this is the closest to a chineese looking smilie, I could find here) and therefor in all secrecy I thought it would be best to obay ...

I cant see half the screen, and Spike wont let me do anything until he has had look at it

SevvyS · Oct 18, 2009

Just finished looking through the site, and some of the forum.. and this game really looks great !

Would be so cool if it was somehow RCE too.. but im 99.9% sure it wont be..

Anyone who has not registerd, go do it ! And choose Templer, no matter what your results! Definatly not Dragon anyway.. they're lame.

I was also pointed towards the dragons ... but chose the Illuminati. I think they get the most sex :D

Rockchick · Oct 18, 2009

I R a Dragon (Lykke we need a dragon emote) :)

It told me so therefor I am

Praug · Oct 18, 2009

I took the test and was chosen as a Dragon. That drunk in the corner may not be so drunk.

Rayne Jade · Oct 19, 2009

I am a Templar... art work does look very nice indeed. Thanks for the tip ;)

Goreon · Oct 19, 2009

According to test, Illuminati so sticking with that

Looks pretty good, will see how things go with it...

Chii · Oct 19, 2009

Ooo looks like a nice game, definately going to try it out. Im especially excited about the Real-World Locations.

Oh and Templar here according to the test

Yirrk · Oct 19, 2009

Yeahhh! The Secret World!
Found that a few weeks ago and signed up for it - I'm Illuminati according to the test.
Love the viral marketing associated with this game - very engaging!

Check out the wiki: http://www.crygaia.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page

This is gonna be a hell of a MMO for sure. Funcom's got a good thing going on.

Dark days are coming isn't the name of the game, its called "The Secret World". Its FunCom's latest big project. I think I wrote a sniplet about it in the What Do You Play thread. :) Im looking forward to this -alot.

I became a dragon btw, but Id rather be a Illuminati. :>

Yups, I know the name is 'The Secret World', just liked their own description on the site and found the headline catchy ;)

The whole art-work there looks so incredibly cool I'm looking forward to see if that's really the case in the game too!

Litago · Oct 19, 2009

My result is Templars :D

Game info:

Imagine if every myth, conspiracy theory and urban legend was true. Imagine if your worst nightmare came to life. Imagine a world where vampires hunt for mortal blood in dingy London nightclubs, where werewolves lurk in the sewers beneath Seoul, and where the undead prey on the living in the shadows of New York City. This is the premise for «The Secret World», Funcom's upcoming massively multiplayer online game set in the modern day real world.
•Urban environments - Throw yourself into the bustling urban environments of New York, London and Seoul. Shop for clothes, weapons and accessories. Stop by the local nightclub to socialize with your friends before heading out into the darkness that is slowly encroaching on the city streets.
•Real-world locations - Discover real-world locations throughout Europe, Asia, Africa and America. From New England to Egypt, explore vast lands full of detail and story as you unravel the myths, legends and conspiracies of the world through a unique, story-driven gameplay experience.
•Freeform gameplay - Experience a game that has no classes or levels. Truly freeform character customization allows you to create the alter-ego you want to play, and gameplay that goes beyond the usually rigid MMO structure allows you to play the game the way you want to play it.
•Hundreds of powers - Wield fiery katanas, gold-plated pistols, and deadly automatic rifles. Learn martial arts, black magic and voodoo. Choose from hundreds of powers to create a character completely customized to your liking.
•Action-packed combat - Lose yourself in the most intense real-time action-packed combat system ever. Aim, strafe, shoot – movement is key as bullets fly past you and explosions threatens to tear you apart. Swords or firearms, magic and melee, each offering a similarly intense, reactive combat experience.
•Secret societies - Join the Illuminati, the Templars or the Dragon - the three secret societies that pull the strings of our world. Work your way to the top, earn titles and rewards, and play a key role in the battle for world domination.
•Player-made organisations - Create or join player-made organisations called cabals. Create your own headquarters, and decorate and furnish it to your liking. All cabals are ranked against each other, and a cabal's success will bring fame, fortune and power to its members.
•Track your progress - Earn points for everything you do - from combat and exploration, to trade skills and PvP - in order to rank high on both local and global scoreboards, gain titles and worldwide acclaim, and help make your secret society the most powerful and influential of them all.
•Intense player vs. player combat - Take part in ferocious, non-stop player vs. player action in the Battle for Hollow Earth. Fight to control anima, a priceless resource deep within the bowels of our world that will bring unprecedented power to whichever cabal that collects it
•Next-generation graphics - Featuring the latest in cutting-edge graphics technology, explore beautifully realized real-world locations that will truly set the standard for next-generation massively multiplayer online games. Prepare for an audiovisual experience unlike anything seen before.
