Neither of those are MMOs, so that won't be a problem.

I've played almost everything - for couple weeks. However gameplay which is interesting during a week or two (putting dots in the center of screen and then pushing trigger) isn't exactly that makes successful MMO game. Probably devs of Need for Speen Online and MechWarrior Online understand that now.



MechWarrior Online, while having its share of hiccups, is probably one of the Best MechWarrior Games ever made, balance issues out the wazzoo but its MechWarrior.... And while their forums are toxic, pretty sure they are making good money.

..... How in the hell do you find EVE more interesting than frantically maneuvering your own ship without the benefit of autopilot and auto target? ....EVE is pretty spreadsheets online, all combat is mostly determined before hitting undock.

Games like MechWarrior, FreeSpace, WingCommander, Elite, etc.... they are pretty much perfect mixtures of RPG and FPS.... plan your load out being the 'rpg' and, maneuver, aim, etc being the 'fps' ....and maneuvering in three different axis makes it sooo much more better than your typical Halo/CoD/Battlefield clone.


And if anybody remembers Independence War.... the stuff you could do in that game because of the newtonian physics, if done with modern graphics would make a Joke out of Battlestar Galactica fighter sequences.


So hell yeah, I'm predicting this game will go far provided its polished and relatively bug free.

I can see Elite: Dangerous superseding Eve Online, DUST, and Valkyrie because eventually it should be all these games rolled into one.


The only thing that Eve Online should do better are the big battles, which is a doubtful advantage given the lag.

They are both MMOs and they have already generated tremendous interest.

Well, good. And here I was half afraid they'd pull a bonehead move like with DUST and put it on PS3 again.

One of ours, ten of theirs.

Best Meltdown Ever.

Really? When did this change, and where did you get that information, because they have never been described as such.

I wonder if Valkyrie will be cross platform like dust and eve or if the pilots will inhabit different servers. Either way it should be fun.

Also inb4 master race rage.


hmm we'll see. Soon tm. and maybe they should concentrate on getting DUST on the Ps4 maybe?
