    [LATEST] Pilot Omniframe Demo is now LIVE!

    Demo was unplayable for me today. Some issues with aiming/tracking. I think it was related to latency, as my connection wasn't great and the problem was very inconsistent in its severity. As I moved around, occasionally my DPI would drop insanely. Like, thousands of points, and the aim would...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    I love your enthusiasm, mate. I can’t wait for Em-8ER and I think the planned direction for the game will be rewarding to players who wish to reap rewards simply from enjoying the game world, exploring, and derive achievements from the simple fun of playing the game. Original Firefall, back in...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    Yeah, like I said haha. The developers made a very successful early game, fostered a beautiful, extremely balanced, competitive PvP environment, then someone made the tragic yet common decision to steer the game in a direction to make as much money in as little time as possible, and then they...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    Hahaha, I really like your responses. Yes, some people behave very unsportsmanlike. I think what it really boils down to is having the capacity to accept this, mute people, and move forward with friends/teams that you actually like to be around. GA had a wonderful thing going for it with the...

    Dumb female presentation

    Just chiming in to say I really love Grummz’s stance on this. “Waifu” art has existed for generations, even in Western culture dating back to the world wars - pinup girls, burlesque, etc. There’s a line between classy and pervy, and while I think some of the stuff has approached that line...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    The only reason I mentioned PvP is because it will inevitably affect the way the game is designed, and I felt that the ways in which it will affect the game's design were relevant to my points regarding my second topic of discussion: player scale and perspective. Because player scale and...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    PvP is a harsh experience and it can leave a lot of players feeling angry and bitter if conducted poorly. However, to compare MMO PvP to Call of Duty is completely asinine and frankly insulting. The best PvP is that which is conducted in a cerebrally compelling environment, with systems to learn...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    I’m not the biggest fan of what Firefall “became” either, but my point was not to insist that Em-8ER be a Firefall 2. Rather, to express emphasis on the necessity of certain environmental qualities that Em-8ER will need if it hopes to match or surpass Firefall in terms of making a player feel a...

    Firefall's Spiritual Successor...?

    Let me start by saying that I love Em-8ER and the ideas behind it. Mark Kern is a huge inspiration for me personally, and I genuinely, deeply respect and admire him and his ideas. I'm not attempting to flatter; I just wanted this to be understood before I give my feedback. I loved Firefall...

    Old Firefall players, please respond!

    Gyrfalcon, author of the Firecat Encyclopedia, proud Commander level Founder, banned for being "toxic" when I spoke out about the state of the game, former mentor. Edit: Also the leader of NOMAD, one of the last active PvP Armies before the game completely died (less than 30 daily players)...

    [LATEST] Pilot Omniframe Demo is now LIVE!

    I'm not sure if this is a known issue or what the status of this is, but the sensitivity settings for me are really wonky. In third person, X sensitivity is significantly higher than Y sensitivity. I tried to compensate in settings and that was really a trip. In first person, everything is...
