I mean by a new universe not an MMORPG, but a MMOG, it could be dogfight as racing game as FPS as tons of things. I don't speak about a futuristic MMORPG. And you want things too fast. No we can't fuck the concept or the game will sucks, it must be thought before coding or it will be impossible in the future to make a cool game. ----- Original Message ----- From: "SkyFlash" <Min...@t-...> To: <ari...@li...> Sent: Tuesday, September 24, 2002 4:36 PM Subject: AW: [Arianne-general] Project failure > > The fact is that there are tons of coders in this project and > > they forget what is important in a free project: things to > > show, because to attract more people and especially people > > that WANTS and WILL work is to show the project works.
