And for those who enjoyed the post-NGE era, SWG Legends has you covered. You want a blend of pre- and post-NGE? That’s Sunrunner 2. If you want to exist right in the middle of the CU era, SWG Restoration is your bet. For those looking to experience the game before the controversial Combat Upgrade, there’s SWGEmu. The efforts to bring Star Wars Galaxies back have been extensive and varied, with different shards approaching different eras of the game’s development. You don’t have to travel in MMO circles for very long before learning the passion and love that people still hold for SOE’s past sandbox game.
As such, MOP cannot formally endorse such activity and advises caution when evaluating whether or not you engage with these servers. We will not, however, be looking at emulators for currently running live games (i.e., Ultima Online, World of Warcraft, EverQuest, etc.) as those are less about preservation and more about competition.Īlso, we should note that in most of the cases below, there has been no legal permission given to operate these games. This week, we’ll be looking at 10 MMOs that were dead and buried at one point and have received a new lease on life thanks to rogue servers. Preservation of long-since deceased MMORPGs is a topic that is near and dear to our heart here, and it is uplifting to see hard-working volunteers do the heavy lifting of keeping these sunsetted games alive - and even updated! - via emulators. Hopefully, Red Devil will do something positive with the Auto Assault stuff, they do own so the Auto Assualt fans againĬan get to smash cars in post apoc (mmo) rpg game.Last December, the Massively OP 2019 Awards gave its “ Best Trend” nod to the rise of rogue servers in the MMO genre. I have peaked now and again from time to time on the Auto Assault forums, and from what I've learned and understood, there seems to be something wrong : with the game, both in terms of gameplay and the way upgrades to the cars are handled : When you develop a game such as Auto Assault, you'll need to understand that you're developinf for a very specfic fanbase, which, basically, is going to be a niche fanbase and that you can't expect to get WOW-numbers in online-subscriptions to the game. Sad this is.Īs for the developer Red Devil buying the IP franchise back, it ain't going to happen either, since NC Soft probably is charging way too much money for the IP franchise, way to much for Red Devil to shell out for the IP rights to Auto Assault, anyway. However, I fear that the battle is already lost as NC Soft probably already decided half a year ago or so that we're going to close the auto assault MMORPG down at the end of Augsut 2007, probably since they, NC Soft, didn't make enough money from it. It is nice to see the Auto Assualt community rallround their game
