Vicious Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 I have never played Everquest, and I'm wondering if it's going to be some kind of pre-requisit for Galaxies. The MM.. whatever, big multiplayer game genre sounds really big and impressive. Does anything compare to it? I've played a lot of Diablo 2 and JK2, how close are they to what Galaxies will be?

setsuko Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 Not even close. Imagine that you can walk in one direction. For a couple of hours. And never run into a border. Its very possible in most MMORPGs. They're that big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Gaarni Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 Let me put it in another way: Think of a BIIIG square that measures 16km on each sides. That totals to a play area of 256km^2. And that's just ONE planet. There are 8 so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

setsuko Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 Mmm... my guess, by what little the devs said yet, bountyhunting will be harder than running for that blue pillar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are for showing you from where you're supposed to engage into hyperdrive, DudE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
setsuko Posted May 28, 2002 Share Posted May 28, 2002 No, I guess he means the blue pillars that points you to your objectives when you receive (at least some) computer generated missions. Seen at one of the bootlegged E3 movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vicious Posted May 29, 2002 Author Share Posted May 29, 2002 What about items and "leveling"? anything i should know about that? It was pretty straightforward in Diablo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
