I had fun in it but got old quickly. Could have been great though - if only they hadn't completely change the whole idea being the game halfway through and then had to use the same client and graphics for something completely different..

Well, about time really.
at the moment, EVE and WoW are the only giants that will probably last(outside KMMOs).
Not suprising as one is the best sword&magic game out there and the other is the only viable space/sci-fi game.

Bunch of cnuts deserved it to die. They sold the boxed version out here in Dubai, TV advertised and it wouldn't even work here! OK, it was due to the countries only supplier blocking certain ports. But surely they should have tested it locally before putting it on sale. I managed to get a refund on the subs but nothing for the software.

as far as I understand it becomes free to play...
Might give it a try then...just to see what the fuss was about

It had its few moments - had it had some more content, it could indeed have had potential.

tbh i think they pulled the plug to soon on that game.
tons and tons of ppl were just sitting there waiting for a half decent content patch and they would resub, and they DID have such an update in developement, parts of it even managed to get onto the test server and it was looking REALLY good.
dedicated pvp maps ala DAoC BG's mixed with abit of FPS playstyle and some pretty decent end game dungeons to.
biggest thing that i miss were the pve attacks on the outposts, especially in the early mornings when there weren't more then maybe 3 - 4 ppl defending. made for some fantastic fun pve.

I also think there was potential, but they just didn't seem like they could figure out what to do and which way to go.
The outpost fights were interesting enough - when not camped - but I would have liked a little more randomness in them.
Whether the game would have been good for PvP - I am not so sure of though. I think it would have been very difficult to balance the classes properly for it.

actually it really wasn't so bad in pvp balance wise.
the only class that might have been slightly overpowered were the sniper due to its massive range, but iirc the damage in pvp had a lower cap damage so they would never 1 or 2 shot anything unless the target were hideously low level.
