I like both, they are quite different. I usually play some PnP with my friends on the weekends (Exalted, pretty fun system) and when I\'m alone I play mmo\'s. I like the fact that the other characters are controlled by players, gives a better roleplay ambient (unless they are annoying... and keep saying things like \"STFU! Giv money to me u *** u hav a lot of money I want free stuff, heal me, plz gimme money\") since it is easier to visualize what the GM/dev wanted to show. Sometimes it is very hard to understand what the hell the DM means... specially when he tries to draw it and you still can\'t understand. MMOs are massive, PnP is more private, I like both  but I believe I like MMOs better. One fact that kinda ruins PnP is when the DM has to talk with a particular player and you stay there waiting with nothing to do. That doesn\'t happen in MMOs.
I was playing Guild Wars, for example, the fast-paced action combined with interesting quests were a lot of fun. I guess it pretty much varies from player to player. I have to agree that PnP gives almost unlimited freedom, which is probably one of the best things about it.

Ooookkk.... the site is just a forum, pretty desorganized in my opinion. What is your guild purpose? What is it alignment? What are it\'s divisions? I haven\'t seen none of this on the website. I advice you to reformulate it.

There are some pretty big guilds right now, but that doesn\'t mean people will envy them or anything. Players will only have a chance to truly develop their guilds and characters once cb is out. And since most of the older members are well stablished in their guilds, no reason for a major swapping. And let\'s face it, there is no in-game reason for that guild existence. What would be it\'s alignment? It\'s purpose? See what I mean?
If you really want to be in a guild that people envy, why not join one that has a in-game purpose and work hard? Better yet, roleplay =)
There is The Mercenary Guild, if you want to roleplay a mercenary. There is the Mirth if you want to roleplay a good aligned character. There are many others, you just have to see what will fit better in what you want.

PS: Sorry for the poor english.

People are applying, but seems that the devs want to release cb and then get the new developers. Sounds good since putting someone in the middle of a project without proper time to explain everything and without proper time for the person to get around the code/art.
I know I would not want to be put in the middle/end of a project unless I had all the details.

The last time I played Planeshift I was using:


Pentium 4   2.6gHz FSB800
1024mb DDR 400mhz ram
GeForce 4 Ti 4800SE
ADSL 256/128kbps


I did not notice any lag at all, but I can\'t remember the fps.

Hey, the more, the merrier
I always enjoyed playing around with all the varieties of emoticons/animations, it is a pitty that many mmorpgs don\'t give them any importance =/ or they just make lame ones =P
Definetly a good idea to incentivate roleplay.

Prolonged nights for RP... Yeah, seems pretty good. Although, since I don\'t know how the world will look at cb during the night I can\'t really tell how good it will be. A game that is dark for hours can be significantly annoying. Unless we had torches. And pitchforks. And some bad-looking monster/person to hunt. Hmm, roleplay =D
Anyway, maybe not something too long. Perhaps two RL hours for a full day cicle? So one hour would be night and the other would be day. I like the idea of the day beginning with sunrise, but that would demand the planet to be british (aka: right on time lol ). Seems interesting, I like games where time is worked properly, gives a deeper gaming experience.

Exactly. Nothing should stop a person with low dextery from firing a bow, but he could suffer some penalties because of the lack of the atribute (been playing Exalted all day long lol). After all, if a person can, for example, fire an arrow with a simple wooden bow, why would the person be unable to do so with a \"Magic Iron Dwarven Bow\" (Enclave :rolleyes: )? No point in that.
