I\\'ve been hearing good things about the game and Ryan certainly liked it. I really need to make some time and play it. About putting in $20 in the game, that\\'s another interesting area. How does an average player put into the game per month? Or rather, how much in average do player who pay put in per month?

We have seen that third party RMT can have negative effects on a game\\'s economy when unintended RMT emerges. But what happens if the game is built from the ground up, or as mechnics built into the game by the developers (and companies like Live Gamer)?

RMT largely has a negative impact on game economies because they are an unintended phenomenon. And usually unwanted and unaccounted for. I think we\\'ll have to wait and see.

Re: FusionFall - 5 Out Of 5, and A Raving Review Too

Fusion Fall is a game mainly aimed at kids and so it wouldn\\'t be surprising that kids would be among the commenters. The game has gotten good reviews from most people who have tried it. And since it\\'s free, why not try it before you bash it? ;)

I haven't had a chance to try it yet. Going to make some time this weekend.

The game is webbased, so it shouldn\\'t rely too much on your hardware. Have you looked at troubleshooting through the FusionFall community/website?

I used to get similar problems with other games if my gfx card drivers weren't up to date.

I believe THQ ICE is publishing the game in North America. http://passport.thqice.com/memb/

Hope that helped. :)

What about Global Agenda's design do you dislike and what makes you think it's a good choice for younger players?

Haven't had the chance to try this game yet, but judging from what we know so far, the game is a massively multiplayer game. With a persistent online world, divided into zones. As more information comes out, we're likely to find out more details, such as the number of players the game can support per server and zone etc. But so far, nothing seems to imply that it's a regular online FPS, which usually support no more than 64 players per server/map, with no persistant world.

We'll be sure to ask at the next opportunity we get, to get things cleared up. ;)

Hi Kath,

The jobs listed aren't with our company or site, we simply compile the list to make it a little bit easier to identify job opportunities in the MMOG industry. If you'd like to apply for a job, follow the links to the original job listing and follow the instructions there.

Cheers,

Re: The Wheel of Time MMORPG In the Works

Siam Choudhury — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 11:52:16 -0000

I'm a big fan of the series (I even play a WoT-bsed RP MUD!). We'll see if Red Eagle can pull something off. They have the material, but it's the execution that will determine whether or not it ends up a good game or not.

We'll see how things go. :)
