Crowfall - Throne War MMO

Recommended Posts

Anyone plays this game?

 

It's a mix between a MMO and a strategy game, dubbed "Game of thrones meets EVE Online". Its founders are J Todd Coleman (Shadowbane, Wizard101, Pirate101) and Gordon Walton (Ultima Online, Star Wars Galaxies, Sims Online). They have raised nearly $30M to realize their vision, with 330,000 registered users.


What's different in Crowfall:

  • Free city building: every player can build their own city in the Eternal Kingdoms
  • The focus on strategy elements: caravans, territory conquest, crafting, fortifications, politics, war
  • Unique and temporary worlds: procedurally generated maps that "end" when victory conditions are met
  • Different ways to win: through Glory (quests from the gods), Power (PvP and sieging), and Wealth (crafting and building)
  • Seasons and day / night cycle: every world is dynamic and shows the passage of time

 

The game will enter its Beta phase this year, and anybody who registers a free account can participate to it.

There are some good news for Crowfall, the Closed Beta (free registration) has begun last summer and anyone can participate to it.

 

They have improved a lot of stuff : performances, character advancement (attributes, disciplines, Shadowbane-inspired classes), passive training that became more active training (through gears), mounts, caravans, refineries, etc.

 

Though they have kept the gruesome elements of the game : grave digging, sacrifices to gods, necromancy, etc.

 

Here's a video showing PvP at medium-scale :
