I can't be the only one that pops in here every few months to see if mates from Firefall have reported in yet. Ran into some old papers with team compo ideas yesterday during attic cleaning, with what looks like friends' IGN's. No clue when it's from, but it's clearly Firefall from the abilities listed. Time really does fly by sometimes LOL

I still have Firefall listed in my Steam library, and refuse to remove it.
Same for me, Ghost In The Shell too. I really miss that game, it was soooo close to awesome. If you never had a chance to play it, it was basically Valorant, but with some of the most satisfying sound design I've ever heard in a videogame (yes I used the V word, I'm an old fart), amazing gameplay and mechanics, and of course set in the world of Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. You really FELT like you were the character you were playing, it was that seamless. Firefall had this as well, even though it lacked the backstory of a full manga, series, and animé. I reeeeeeeally hope E8 is going to have this same immersion.

Where do I know this from?
Not claiming I'm the only one who thought of the saying, but I have not heard it anywhere before.

Agreed! I sucked at the game but I loved it for the G.i.t.s. environment. Tried to get my wife to watch it. She doesn't like the deep thinking anime.

I can't wait to see what they will produce in the next few weeks/months.
We too, there so much talk of space trucks the next i imagine is transforming meks into cassette tapes and turn into super boombox mek and all other kind of transforming meks like a Raptor tank mek that fires pilots out of it to launch into the sky as they become Reaper Projectile and break into the sky pirates Space ship!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaa rubs my hands together

I really miss Firefall! It was so disappointing that Red5 couldn't get it together. FF was fantastic. I started playing at PAX East in 2013(?) and then at home later that day. I really enjoyed watching the game world develop and change. I loved the crafting and having to mine for the minerals that I needed. Playing the Bastion before it got fatally nerfed meant I could solo a large thumper fairly easily. I miss those days. The game world itself was very cool, I loved the ship designs, just the whole esthetic was cool. I'm waiting to see what Em8er will become before I'll jump in.

I alpha'd Firefall and even got the $100 founders pack with the hat and art print (framed and still on my wall to this day) and I miss it so much... I've considered getting into EMBER, but, honestly, after them shutting FIREFALL down after I put so much time and RL money into it, I'm hesitant...
