A new sandbox MMO has appeared on
Kickstarter under the name Terrayn, spelled T E R R A Y N.  Now, sandbox might be restricting the game
too much, a desert might be a more fitting term, as the developer has laid out
quite the ambitious effort for their game. 
Aside from the traditional sandbox features such as in-depth crafting
and detailed character progressions, Terrayn boasts two new features that
really stood out to me.  First is the
API, or Application Programming Interface, which allows players to program and
develop the game from within the world itself. 
What does that mean?  Oh you know,
you can add interactive elements, shift buildings around and build just about
anything, you know, pretty standard stuff. 
Secondly is the infrastructure supporting the game.  One realm, one server and cloud
technology.  It’s hard to give you all
the scope of Terrayn in a short news article here, so check out their
Kickstarter, and pledge your support.

Since the last story was so long, let
me make this one quick.  Today was meant
to be a day of celebration for Wurm Online, following the latest patch, update
1.2.  Unfortunately the celebrations were
short-lived, following a DDOS attack that has taken the game down, and as of
this filming, is still down.  They have
put out a 10,000 euro reward for tips and/or evidence leading to a conviction.

Laslty, PopPace, a game platform for
many browser based MMOs has announced the beginning of the open beta period for
their first self-developed MMORPG, Holy Blade Online.  The open beta begins later today, and will
introduce a “cutting edge game engine” that delivers a variety of
“impressive features” including a “fashion system” and
“extensive pet options” and a huge variety of “challenging
dungeons”.  Much quote, so wow.  Anyways, to celebrate the release there are
many events meant to lure you into the game. 
Events include showering you with extensive gifts.

Reality Squared Games today announced
their new MMORPG League of Angels is officially out of beta.  The beta
peroids proved successful, attracting over 200,000 registered players, many of
which played through both phases.  The developers revealed the addition of
two new Angels, Amora, and Nyssa, along with several new features including the
marriage system, and ranking tables for competitive play.  

 

NCSoft recently published its 4th
Quarter financial reports, showing that Guild Wars 2 lead the way to a
successful year for the company.  Most of NCSoft’s recent titles had a
successful 2013, with Lineage showing tremendous growth, and Guild Wars 2
raking in over $115 million dollars.  Among the other highlights of the
report, Blade and Soul’s chinese release saw a huge surge in Royalties, while
the company looks forward to the Wildstar launch later this year.

 

Lastly, the fine folks over at MMO Champion
have found some leaks to the Heroes of the Storm Alpha client.  They dug
up info that reveals images of a log-in screen, options menus, loading screens,
instruction pages, and unreleased Heroes with descriptions and stats.
 Head on over to MMO Champion to get the low-down on that info!

Transcript:
So Brad McQuaid first began teasing his new MMO in December
last year, and released the Kickstarter for Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen in
January.  Despite the hugely positive
response he’s had thus far, the campaign is still very short of its lofty goal
of $800,000.  As we stand today, 9 days
until the end of the campaign, they are not even at the halfway point, but Brad
has let supporters know that whether or not the Kickstarter is successful, the
game will be built.  After the
Kickstarter his team will set up a website with ways to pledge and re-pledge
and are looking for other investors to help take the project to completion. 

It will be a difficult task to follow up the release of
Superman, but Star Sapphire might just be the right champion to do it.  After Superman’s release last month in Infinite
Crisis, Star Sapphire, the champion of love, will join the ranks as a deadly
blaster later this month.  She will be a
long-range damage dealer with the ability to push lanes and take down
objectives, while having the ability to summon her Predator, which is a pink
alien-like creature, who has strong auto-attack and the ability to root.  Star Sapphire will be available in-game on
February 26th.

Lastly, Aeria Games today announced the release of the first
major content update for its free to play fantasy MMORPG, Aura Kingdom.  With the most successful launch in the company’s
history, the new patch hopes to attract new players with a brand new class, a
new raid, and new end-game dungeon content. 
The new Brawler class brings the game up to 9 playable classes.  The brawler is a melee specialist, with a
variety of deadly blows using his sharp claw-like weaponry that call upon the powers
of the earth and the sky.

Lord of Ultima Shutting Down, World Fishing Tour, Rust and more! | The Daily XP February 12th

Cheaters, swindlers, the fraudulent, be aware! The popular survival MMO Rust has introduced a new anti-cheat system called CheatPunch. The will help combat the numerous hacks and cheats that have been placed into the game by a number of hooligans, maybe even by some of you watching. Creator Garry Newman, not to be confused with the flamboyant English musician, has stated that almost 5000 players have already been banned. He goes on to tell these players that they have been “naughty boys,” and that they know what they have done. Rust plans on putting up a website to show those unfortunate souls proof as to why they were individually banned. 

As a long-term world of warcraft player that was never any good, I can appreciate the diligence and painstaking persistence of fishing. With that said, GamesCampus has announced today the starting date for the open beta of their realistic fishing MMO, World Tour Fishing. The game will have 25 progressive character levels, 2 different countries to explore, and over 20 unique fishing locations. There will also be a number of daily tournaments, giving players ample opportunity to show the other who is a better human-being in a competitive setting. At 2:00 PM PST February 27th players will be able to dive deep into World Tour Fishing, bring your rods. 

If you play the MMO Lord of Ultima, my condolences to you. The aging MMORTS has announced its official closing date, despite having support of one of the biggest game publishers around. Electronic Arts states that the game will officially be closed on Monday, May 12th. Developers are encouraging players that still have any in-game currency to spend it fast because once the game closes, it’s gone forever. There is a mushy statement from Electronic Arts about the conclusion of this game in our on MMO ATK article. Give it a look if you like movies like the notebook, and that one where Many Moore gets cancer.
