Related, he's done this TWICE before.

@Mike Valkyrur, Yeah, I pretty much expected this to be a pretty crippled early acess. All I can do is to sit back and watch how this piece of art develops. Let's see if this game actually launches as F2P in the end.

@briggs, I was one of those 3k who managed to play the game without purchasing a founder pack. Play in the sense that directx 9 simply didn't work and directx 11 had no sound.

While I had little access to the game, that's all I needed to know it wasn't for me. Of course the art/ads for this game paint a different (misleading) picture.

Check out steamcharts.com for this piece of art and other games to keep track of their current and total activity gamerwise. This "MMO" did not reach triple digits so far for early acess. A sh!tton of people will swarm the game the moment it reaches F2P status. Until then -------------> nope.avi
Of course someone who does not own the game does not have any experience actually playing the game but that doesnt make his/her opinion less valuable for a game that is unfinished and in early acess. Not a smart move.

'. People who own my games - let alone play them - have a lot more sense that you exhibited in your posts and here.' quote from dsmart. He was arguing. But still. Wow. Pass on this game.

this dmsart chap really seems to be a piece of work

I got banned from his forum simply for telling a potential buyer to be wary of him, as he has a history of seriously saying screw you, and a hell of alot more. I seem to remember a time when it was about the darn community and gamers, not about a bloated ego and and apparent hate of vending machines.

You should prolly add in that even questioning why the game needs so many resources, and why in the hell he continuesly feels some odd need or other to go off on people for even the slightest of dam oppinions. Sorry to say pal but when you treat your potential costumer like ♥♥♥♥, and treat vending machines like ♥♥♥♥? Screw, that bs.

Anyway, those who reported the text box issue and the crash (from resolution switch) were given instructions on what to do (update) and that resolved the issues.

It's all back to normal now. If you do own the game and want to help out with it, hence Early Access, you should give it another shot. There is a LOT more to this game can you think and you will miss out on a unique experience if you think you know it all in the short time that you had access to the game.

The game was flagged for launch from Early Access to Release my mistake yesterday. Valve fixed it.

And everyone (3000+ people) who downloaded it, lost access to the game shortly after. Which is why we extended the 50% discount by 48hrs.

As to the issues you mentioned, we did have some text box and load crash issues when the game first went live because we had an update that wasn't pushed to some clients due to people trying to update the game while the Steam client was running.

It is an Early Access game and some people don't seem to understand that, let alone bother to read the lengthy description on the game's store page. And that was compounded by the fact that when it was released incorrectly, some people may have also genuinely missed that information.
