Yes, totally. A pre-alpha sandbox-test with some 3d models in a FarCry theme, old sound effects and some magic items from 1001 arabian nights everybody wants to decorate themselfs with, defenitly should teach the non believers, that THIS must be the planet that will bring THE CHANGE to the universe. ;D
Oh and if it did you probably go into deep depression and maybe even kill yourself over it wouldn't you? It would be so sad to see this succeed to you wouldn't it? you know it would..you know it. :)
We all have opinions and views. I would enjoy it a lot more if you guys could communicate them respectfully :) thanks, narfi
It'll bring nothing to the universe if they remain in a servile status against MA. PPs should stand together (if this is possible) to set MA under pressure. MA acts after the motto "devide and conquer" and the winner is: Calypso. Even the new Calypso baby Monria is treated like a stepchild (I know that from personal experiance, believe me!). And hey! When I saw at what location they placed Toulan, I know everything about how the future of this new PP will look like. It has been placed between Next Island and Howling Mine. Either Beladcom will be allowed to come up with breathtaking new features in near future or it'll will go the stony deadend road like NI and Cyrene. Not to speak about the abandoned and forgotten project Howling Mine. Who is next in the row? I think NEVERDIE already issued an ultimatum to MA. Next? Monria: Tbh ...why the hell should I go there? (Except having a swim in the penthouses pool or grub in Kristin's warehouse of unpayable female clothes?) To pick two out of this row: "The Thing" at Rocktropia. THAT was a breathtaking adventure! Thumbs up to NEVERDIE! And time travel at Next Island. Me and Kristin are still occasional at Ancient Greece for vacation. And this describes nearly perfectly the current siuation. We have one planet most of the colonists live and "work" at. And we have some other planets wich are kinda amusement parks or vacation paradises. (Arkadia try to be a copy of Calypso with a few special features.) But alas! Compare the number of auction pages of Arkadia to Calypso and you will know everything.
That's one side of the medal, Narfi. The other side are the facts: How many colonists are attracted by PPs, do PPs really offer interesting alternates? Last time I heard the call to go somewhere was Kong event. It ended as a desaster if I understand it right. Yesterday a new hope raised up: Toulan. Okay, nice try. Likable folks at Beladcom, no doubt. But hey ... umpf! I hate to be that pessimistic! It's a nice little doll's house. They need to do more than that. Much more!
I know it is impossible to discuss with you about this matter. I better avoid kiling myself to send your blood pressure into soaring. ;) [You know it wil happen...you know it. ;)] If there is enough $ behind Toulan it will continue and might even "survive". If not...you know what will happen...you know it.
RT, Cyrene and NI never were another hope-factor to me. Calypso is...was...well, somethign around that... ;)
For me too! I am a Calypsian. Tricky part from my side is: MA/Calypso has to compete to stand alone "Skyrim" starting tomorrow and "Elder Scrolls Online" starting at 31th of March (since I preordered it already during beta-testing and I will have access 5 days earlier than standard customers at 4th April). I guess, McCormick, you know that I am interested in Entropia Universe. I would stay (and deposit) here for ever. But the simply destroy everything and screw PPs to slaves and idiots. Toulan was a big hope to get different cultural input and generate a worthful social input ...
