Playing a reaver would be sweet. Remember, they have British accents and huge vocabularies off-camera.

I honestly first thought you were yanking my chain or promoting some text-based chat. But after reading the post, jippi! This is great

Keep spreading the word about Firefly!

The system/engine/program they're using sounds like a kind of "open source" software program... I don't think it'll have a high production value, and sadly, if they use the engine they've chosen, the operation may never get off the ground.

Cynicism aside, sounds pretty cool.

Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fighting at a time like this? You'll use up all the air.

We'll just have to wait and see. And if it ends up being poorly done, it still wouldn't be bad, because it would be a Firefly MMO omfg.

Oh SNAP.

I avoided Warcraft.

I avoided (mostly) Neopets.

I've avoided every online RPG I possibly could

This? THIS is going to be the game that finally sucks me into MMORPGs and kills, once and for all, my gasping freetime.

I relish the prospect.

why are you moaning about it being windows only, if you noobs were using anything other than windows you'd know damn well you can emulate anything to make it work... so just quit crying and looking for reasons to b***h and moan, your ruining the excitement for the rest of us.

Hey, I'm new, first post BTW, big MMO'er and browncoat.

So, this is the Big Damn Game? While I am thrilled at the continuation of the 'Verse, I pray it is not the 'verse's final hour. The engine has potential however. If multiverse/whoever develops the game can make it look good, then I'm all for it. But so far from what I've seen from the engine it's a small upgrade from Everquest 1. That doesn't sit well with me.

On a positive note, there is not sight of SOE or EA anywhere.

"'Everything looks good from here. Yes. Yes, this is a fertile land, and we will thrive.'

'We will rule over all this land, and we will call it... 'This Land'.'

'I think we should call it...your grave!'

'Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!'

'Ha ha HA! Mine is an evil laugh...now die!'"

I am insanely excited too, but dont get too hyped up, mmorpg fans, because its being made by a small developer using a pre-made engine that has not created any real mmorpgs yet.

But gee, its hard to keep from getting excited.

The name 'Big Damn Game' might be a bad idea, BDG look familiar to any DOOM fans?
