Well I would like to become one of the writers of this game and have tried to get in touch with difficulty, but I think the way you say about a common enemy like one that we should all battle against is wrong, IMHO I think there should eventually be multiple spawn points in different locations at the start of the game, you race affects where that is, for example some of the races described don\'t get on so we could have those different races played by NPCS and PC alike and enable them to battle with each other sometimes, I;m not sure if Im making myself very clear.
What I\'m trying to say is that we should be able to be able to choose which \'side\' we are on, so that there is no common enemy, that way the players can be either the baddies or the goodies if you see what I mean.
It\'s not a new concept most games do it I think, like EQ, RoE, DAoC,...... you get the drift.

Yeah I haven\'t played this a lot but it does look mighty good from what I have seen of it so far, IMHO though you might want to wait a while before you install the client and stuff because it is still Pre-alpha which means buggy and not much content (thats not a dig BTW) it depends on if your planning on helping the project along or if you are wanting to just play the game.

Spybot search and destroy is also an extremely good one which is updated regularly.

I heard some rumors though that the Ad Aware one had spies in it itself?

Is that true?

Well when I try to email info@planeshift.it I get the following message

To Planeshift Team,

 

Here are all the details, hopefully which are requested by you if I would like to become part of you project.

 

My Details

 

Full Name: Jamie Salmon

Email: odenniov@warcry.net, webmaster@thechosenelite.com, halodevotee@hotmail.com

Age: 16

Country: United Kingdom

City and State: don?t really apply but it would be Wellington and Somerset

 

I want to help out anyway I can, I feel that I could help you as a Public Relation Department: RECRUITER Member because I have an extensive knowledge of a long list of gaming sites, and I have had experience in that sort of area before, I did some PR for CyberWarrior by promoting their game in the UK with leaflets and promotional rubies (made of cardboard though), I can send you some pictures of them if you would like.

MMORPG game wise I consider myself to be quite the connoisseur having played probably verging 30 but more in the region of mid 20?s, a lot of these include betas and alphas, and small list of the better known games would be;

 

?          Rubies of Eventide,

?          Anarchy Online,

?          Everquest,

?          Fung Wan Online,

?          Project Entropia,

?          Freeworld,

?          Dark Age of Camelot,

?          A Tale in the Desert,

 

Although this list is set to expand even more as I have put down to be on the Beta?s for Ryzom, Dark and Light, Dragon Empires, City of Heroes, The Matrix Online and Lords of Everquest amongst many others.

I spend a lot of time online as I am just finishing my last week of exams which means I will have about a 3 month period in which I will do minimal work, (evenings and weekends) and won?t be in school.

Those are a few sites you could use to promote the game. They are widely read and quite popular.

I?m sorry to say that although you ask for a place to look for new developers for any of the departments this will be quite hard as you are asking for volunteers rather than hiring people, this means that there are not many places to advertise, however what you could do is make that element of the game known when you publicise it on the other sites.

I?ve never really got in to Tabletop RPG?s however I do have knowledge about them as I did quite a lot of research into after someone I know told me they were GMing 6 high level tables at something called ?Living Greyhawk? at a large convention in the UK.

 
I would also like to do work as a Setting Department: BACKGROUND/SETTING Member as I am quite proficient with my writing skills, being fresh out of my first stage of education. I attained high grades for my coursework in English however the only fiction piece I would have to offer is on a science fiction theme, I am however extremely interested in Medieval history and mythology and I feel quite confident in saying that I would be able to produce some material for this game.

I find the idea of writing NPC dialogue and scripting quests quite an exciting prospect and feel that this would be less like work and a lot more like fun, I have often thought of various ideas for quests etc that I would like to be introduced to games and this would be an excellent opportunity for me to vent those ideas.

 

Thank you for taking the time to read my ?resume? of sorts and I hope to get a response from you soon, good luck with the game as it is already of an extremely high standard!

 

Yours,

 

Jamie Salmon
