The literal craziest
thing I have watched in a long time is the ReRoll announcement video that came
out today from PIXYUL. They plan to use drones to accurately map out the entire
planet to create an exact 1:1 scale replica in-game. I’m not kidding; this
really means that all areas of the Earth, urban or rural, will be accessible to
play. The first game they plan on using this technology for will be ReRoll,
which is a survival MMO with some interesting survival mechanics and an
in-depth crafting system. You’ll notice at the end of the video that they are
seeking funds to make this insanity reality, so think what you will of that. I
say check the video out anyway, it will blow your mind, I promise.

 

John Smedley, bossman
at Sony Online Entertainment, has been taunting our interests with his vague hints
of a new mystery game. He has been directing his recent tweets toward Star Wars
Galaxies players, telling them that if they are into sandbox elements of play,
they will be into this new game. There is breaking twitter evidence of Smedley
writing that the game will be revealed next month. We’ll see about that. Though
we still don’t have a name, we do know that it will not be set in a
science-fiction setting…..There are rumors that it may be a post-apocalyptic
theme, which means, say it with me, zombies.

 

Phosphor Games Studio
has announced today the full info on the latest patch to their survival MMO
Nether. Previous patches have been measly compared to this one. They’ve built
on their newly created subway system to include a tribes feature, which will
give them the option of joining 1 of 16 tribes. This includes more offensive
and defensive abilities, more loot drops, and that extra nice extra inventory
space. They’ve also made it so you can scavenge and craft, giving you the
ability to make whatever weapon want. If you play this game already though, you
may be bummed to find that they had to do an entire character wipe to balance
these new features. Bummer.

Masthead Studios today revealed information about their
upcoming Valentine’s Day celebration.  If
you’re like me, and will be spending Valentine’s day alone .. sad face .. then
at least you’ll be able to kick some robot ass in their free to play MMOTPS,
Guns and Robots.  Beginning February 10th
a new game mode, which is like a VIP mode you’ve seen in other shooters, will
allow players to rack us credits in order to unlock a Valentine’s Day Reward,
which is a new weapon that charms opponents into feeling completely helpless.  A second event, the ‘Heartbreaking’ contest
will supply a large amount of credits to the victors.

Today Joymax announced their largest patch in history for
Digimon Masters Online.  I know you’re
thinking, yeah I don’t care how large it is, just give us more mounts.  Well, that’s what you get!  Two new mounts include Chaosmon and the
Dramon Paladin, both of which are the fastest the game has seen.  The update also brings new Digivolutions, a
new Lucemon Satan Burst mode and the continuation of the Free Sweets event
through February.

Lastly, Visionary Realms, the San Diego based developer
headed by Brad McQuaid of EverQuest fame, has announced the latest class for
their ‘still-in-kickstarter’ MMO, Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen.  The Enchanter is a utility class who is a
master of crowd control, a proficient buffer, stunner, mezzer and charmer.  The Enchanter will specialize in assisting
groups through stuns and mesmerizing multiple enemies, while also being able to
manipulate charmed enemies behaviors and commanding them as hiw or her
own.  Unfortunately, like all of
Pantheons class updates, no photos can be found, only a symbol of sorts, which
kind of harshes my buzz.

Transcript:
A Finnish development team, Tribe Studios, today announced
the immediate launch of the closed beta for their dramagame, Velvet
Sundown.  Velvet Sundown sees players
aboard a luxury yacht on a high seas adventure. 
At launch, 11 characters are available to play, each with their own
carefully crafted personality and background story.  Upon launch Velvet Sundown will be
accompanied by ground-breaking, text-to-speech technology, which is likely never
before seen in the free MMO genre.  OK,
so what is a dramagame?  I’m imagining a
version of The Bachelor, where all the ladies are stuck on a boat and have to
fight over one man, but then the Captain is there swabbing the decks, if you
know what I mean.  I’m winking.

A Black Desert fan site today posted an interview with the
developers Pearl Abyss, shedding some light on the progress of the russian
localization for their highly anticipated MMORPG.  The information in the article suggest they
expect a publisher to be chosen at a later date, and that they expect a
localized version will be released in Russia before both the EU and US.  So .. wait, i’m not sure what the point of
this article is.  I guess i’ll be moving
on.

We’ve talked extensively about SOE in the past week or
so.  From the shutting down of four
titles, to EverQuest Next Landmark’s Alpha and the Star Wars Galaxies mention
in the AMA last week.  Well, John Smedley
is adding a little fuel to the fire as he’s posted a twitter photo of the so
called spiritual successor to Star Wars Galaxies, and no, it has nothing to do
with Star Wars, or space or anything along those lines.  The photo is of a church, I think, and other
than that, not much else was posted. 
Could we be seeing a modern take on some of the features that made SWG
so popular at first?  Maybe.  But we will keep you updated on all the hot
gossip here.

EverQuest Next Landmark’s Alpha, DayZ, State of Decay and more! | The Daily XP January 31st

by

Hey guys, I’m Mark
McDonald and you’re watching the Daily XP for today, Friday January 31st, exclusively from mmoatk.com. We’ve
got some good stuff for you today as we’ll talk about some fixes coming to
DayZ, another nod towards a State of Decay MMO annnnd… EverQuest Next Landmark
Alpha lands today and we’ve got some hands on experience to tell you all about.
Let’s get this started.

The Daily XP is MMO ATK’s Daily MMO and MMORPG News Show.  Come back each and every day for highlights of the days most current stories, brought to you by the number one MMO news source on the web!

Transcript:
First up, it’s not
huge news, but a new update has been released to DayZ’s experimental servers,
introducing a few technical changes and some changes to popular weapons and
common animations. More specifically, a number of building mechanics have been
addressed, new spawns have been placed and slight tweaks to loot regularities
have been made. For those unfamiliar with the process, Bohemia Interactive
implements new patches on select experimental servers before giving it a wider
release, so standard players can expect to see the changes soon.

At this point a State
of Decay MMO is one of those things where the only thing not confirming its
existence is an actual announcement from Microsoft. The rumor mill’s been a
buzz today after Patrick Wyatt, co-founder of ArenaNet and En Masse
Entertainment joined the staff of Undead Labs and released a statement saying,
“I can’t talk anything about what I’m working
on here at Undead Labs … yet. … But … I specialize in developing really big
multiplayer games. So I guess maybe I’ll be working on something like that, at
least as soon as I get one of the cool lab coats everyone around here has.” So there you go, cryptic and yet not really
so. Make sure to keep an eye out for any announcements. We’ll let you guys know
as soon as we hear more.

And finally, the big
news of the day comes courtesy of SOE with the announcement that EverQuest Next
Landmark’s Alpha is finally and officially live! Purchasers of either of the
top two tiers of the EQNL founder’s packs can get their start in the sandbox
world and begin giving feedback that is crucial to the future of the game. We
had a chance to try out the game yesterday and I wont go into it in-depth here, but I’m cautiously
optimistic for everything that the game has to offer. We were told that the
game is currently about 60% complete, the tools for creation need some refining
and there is a steep learning curve attached to it, but the potential for what
can be created is absolutely off the charts. Those who have come to love Minecraft
and are looking for sort of the next step in terms of creation and complexity
should definitely look into this. Kirk and I each tell about our experiences
with the alpha which you can find in a separate video, linked over my face and
below, so be sure to check that out if you want to know more!

And that’s everything
