Tabula Rasa (Closed Beta)

Featured Replies

Posted

I saw a video for Tabula Rasa (Richard Garriot's Tabula Rasa) during E3 this year and it looked good, but looks aside how will it play?

 

Well, I received a beta key and the client earlier tonight and I will soon find out if this is just another MMO or something worth trying out. This is a closed beta so I expect a large number of problems; although, I am hoping I can get some indication of the direction of the title. This one has been in development for a long time now with high expectations.

 

From what I have seen, it appears to be a turn-based MMO with levels, experience, leveled equipment, etc. Some of the terminology also resembles standard MMO components. i.e. "missions" = "quests", "squad" = "party", etc. Honestly, I am not looking forward to another MMO of this type, but the game may be enjoyable for a number of other reasons.

I will never ever try another MMO again, I got way too addicted to WoW and it affected my life negatively and I'm not letting that happen again

I can see that. You have to know your own limits, nothing wrong with that. Additionally, who wants to be sucked into something that is designed to take up all your time?

the key is learning how not to let it take up your time.

I have a couple questions for those of you plaing Tabula Rasa. I didn't get into the closed beta and from the looks of things, its gona stay closed till they release the full version of the game...so i'm not gonna get a test spin.

 

My first question. In this game, is the strength of your character based on the amount of time u put into it, or the amount of skill and experience your have in shooter games?

I've somewhat enjoyed the MMO genre but recently i'm finding myself with less time to play. When i see some asswipe trash talk me simply because he spent an extra 5 hours leveling, i get annoyed, go on battlefield, join some crappy server and stomp them till i get a vote kick. umm... moving on...

 

2nd question. Gringo mentioned it was turnbased. I can't really imagine a turnbased shooter. care to enlighten a bit more? I'm most curious about the pvp team vs team thingy.

 

3rd! Howmany of you are gonna get it? From what i read, its sposed to be squad based ish. where 1 person carries standard light firearms, another person carries a bigger rifle, and 1 more takes a rocket launcher. The more players, the more reasons for me to get it.

 

4th. Twitch reflex sniping!!! is there any of that? a 1 shot head shot miracle from billions of miles away? I have a crazy sniper friend...if theres some of that, then theres 1 more player for me to add.

I will never ever try another MMO again, I got way too addicted to WoW and it affected my life negatively and I'm not letting that happen again

Hmmm and BF2142 hasnt :D JK
