Hello everyone, thought i would introduce myself to the forum crowd lurking around these threads. Im strongly considering pre-ordering Xyson, But im also strongly aware of my apparent urge to throw money at unfinished games in the hopes of my mmo dream coming true.

Anyway, Chances are ill eventually buy into it like i allways do and see you guys in game.

so ya... Hello!

Whats the current activity on the servers like? Are there people entertaining themselves or is everyone waiting for the next update?

Right now the game is always empty except for one or two groups of people who were already a clan before coming here. We just got a social panel, but we are missing the tribe system from a to z , that system includes a lot like tribe tasks and construction, etc.

Most are waiting for the 'big' update that allows people to build tribes. Right now the game is really being appropriated by a few casual carebears.

I have lost a lot of interest over time because other players tend to disgust me with ridiculous feedback and expectations, and most people want hand holding features and no risk.

I have pre-ordered in march if that can make you feel better. I have dozens of internationnal players that want to join my tribe but the implementations are totally biased towards already established 3rd party clans.

Some tribes are to me the summum of disgust. When i see their activity it makes me feel really good , like i had a life. But im affraid that in the end these casual tribes will control the game and the devs will bend to their demands.

I rarely play more than 5 minutes after a patch, i get burned out fast because they refuse to give us the tools to create the community.

The game has very little information , and it seems it will stay that way, there is sometimes no way to know if a feature is really implemented and working properly as intended. There is a thin line where you are supposed to discover yourself , but who wants to add stat points into a build before taking a single step ingame ?

This game needs at least a month of tweaking,polishing when tribes are in.

Greetings Bretton

Shinra is active and having fun here. We are doing a lot of testing and tracking down bug but also just playing for fun. Hope to see you in game.

Please do something about these trolls.

Saying “this game sucks” to someone’s introduction is disgusting.

This will be a great game once the developers are done with it. :woohoo:

I think there all complaing about permissions on objects when they say our tribe is trying to run the game, but it says thats only a temp fix so i dont know why they are getting all angry ;)

Hi there, Bretton !

If you are a patient person who is willing to help to test the game and don't get upset on character wipes and bugs then buy the game and have fun. If you prefer to play finished and polished games then I suggest you to wait for the release. The game is in beta test now, some features are missing, some are broken, some work well. People do play, but they want to avoid beta-burnout so they usually don't spend too much time online.

If you enjoy crafting, terraforming, exploring then you will probably like the game, if you are into PvP then you'd better wait.

The community is really nice and friendly, you have already met some of our trolls :P

@REVKhA:
REV, this is not the first time that you mention tribes who were clans before coming to Xsyon...who do you mean? I'm really courious, since Hopi was formed here, we've never met before...and as far as I know the same goes for SHINRA. Why do you need official tribe features so much...you can just log in the game with your friends and tribemates, build a base and have fun. We do the same, we haven't got any advantages that you don't have.

Too answer your question

Right now everyone just logs on every once in a while to check out the updates. Most of us are waiting for the release date to start playing full time.

Spot on. Prepare to start paying a monthly fee for an alpha release.

This is not true. As Jooky has stated many times he will push back the game as many times as he has to until he feels it is ready.

I do not want to setup 3rd party forums/website because the features of Xsyon provide these ingame. So you took the opportunity to find a webmaster and made a forum so that your tribe can be better organized than people who do not spend each day bumping tribe recruitment threads with absurd tribal hierarchy graphics.

So yeah... you organized with 3rd party tools and formed an external 'clan' to be successful in a game where the tools to do that are not available.

I still don't understand what you're complaining about. Who cares if they made a web site and recruited people?

Also, how has the game's development catered to these supposed powerful and influential tribes? You keep saying that every chance you get but I see nothing in the game currently that supports your accusation. Maybe container permissions were rushed because of people complaining but it's already been said that the way they are currently implemented is temporary.

Thanks for the responces everyone. I do grasp the state of the game and what is needed and expected from future updates. I just hope they can pull it off.

One thing tho... Im alittle turned off of the game due to the community forming around it. There are a few tribes who maintain a air of respectability but there are a few who add nothing to any conversation and only take the time (alot of there own time) to bash on each other and the game whos forum they are in.

the guy from howard stern.... really? As if the few chance encounters with his face arnt painfull enough.

Any way, I'll keep an eye on this game. Still looks promising.

what community ?

Paradox

I suggest paying no attention to a few in this thread. This is not a good sample of Xsyon at all. I am not sure why a very small minority is allowed to misrepresent our community this way.

Maybe your right and I'm just not being fair. I think ill preorder the game when I'm done building my new system.

That’s exactly what I did, made a new system for a new game :)

Thou it would be totally cool if it could support a new system for every new game... think of all that hardware, money and wires... err then think of the power if you leave them all on. HAHAHA Sorry to derail.

Getting back to one of the previous comments made by Paradox, everyone on the forum is allowed to say most things unless its a heavy remark that isn't allowed. This includes 'bad press'.

Many of you have been reporting post recently.

While we want to keep the forums open, we will not tolerate trolling and agitating to the point that it detracts from the community we are building and distracts the developers.

The game will be an open sandbox, but it is not designed as a playground for those whose sole enjoyment is to ruin other people's fun.

Neither is this forum.

Please treat this community with respect and you will be respected in return.

Thank you.
Xsyon

As you can clearly see,This does not give you the right to insult or derail posts.Just to make what kiwibird said a bit more clear.
