Yes, it's Richard "Lord British" Garriot's sci-fi MMORPG project.

Looks cool, better than i'd imaged from screenies. Art style reminds me of anarchy online.. which is no bad thing :P

Ah, I see- Maybe this will be the game that gets me into MMORPG's. The standard fantasy settings haven't enticed me, so far.

First i've seen / heard of this. Looks very nice. Good to see someone trying something a bit different with MMOs too.

It's a trailer for a MMORPG but it isn't two and a half minutes of meaningless rendered CG. I'm confused.

Keen to see how this one will sidestep the mines that Planetside hopscotched on.

The vast majority of that video is obviously "in-engine". It looks like someone flying around filming an ongoing game.

One thing I'd like to know (without bothering to find out myself) is if any FPS skills would actually help with playing this game? I mean it looks like most of the time they are just standing there blasting away. Maybe the video would look stupid if they were all side-stepping and bunny-hopping like crazy :)

The gameplay vids from last year's E3 weren't about mmofps at all, this is just a fast-paced mmorpg, no shooting skills seem to help you out here. Quite a misleading trailer I would say if they didn't change what I just said.

the 1st scene looked like something out of Tomb Raider. There is a craft that takes off that looks like something from the film The Terminator. Overall the game looks too dark, it reminded me of Halo with the color turned up and the lightness turned down. Mixed views really. The music was average at best.

Looks like a cross between Planetside and Phantasy Star Online if you ask me. No bad thing if it is!

Been looking forward to this one since it was an MMORPG, now I believe it's more of an MMOFPS with RPG elements.
