Stargate resistance
« on: April 30, 2010, 08:02:20 AM »
With the MMO Stargate Worlds been folded, the team releases Stargate Resistance, a FPS game in the Stargate universe. The developers claim they still hope to eventually release an MMO of Stargate too, but now they will release the work they've done as a shooter.

Anyway, there was a test of the game last weekend which I missed. There is another test this weekend, and I intend to try the game out. If you are interested, head to http://www.stargateresistance.com/JoinTheResistance/index.html and create an account and download the client.

Read about the mmo they planned. Sounded ehm... not very good to be honest.
Might be better as a shooter.

Btw, what time is "Saturday at 12:01 am (pacific time), May 1st, through Monday at 12:01 am (pacific time), May 3" in one of the more sensible time-zones (like EET, CET or BST)?

Ok, thanks :) So tomorrow I might be able to try this game out before lunch :)

It seems to be a "battleground" type shooter, so something like the scenarios or PvP-lakes in WAR. Basically, a part of the scrapped MMO (no experience, no quests, but the combat system and animations etc that were already completed); not the most stupidest idea to try to salvage something from a failed project (depends of course on how much the game will suck :D ).

Played a couple matches, came to same conclusion. If there wasn't that Jaffa character available, I'd never have guessed it has something to do with Stargate, it is *that* generic shooter...

Sounds like it really is awful.

Give me Planetside anyday when it comes to shooters.
