Agent1777 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Wow, looks nice. I dont get it though, half is like mud huts and mud creatures and the rest is robots with giant guns. Interesting combination. Tip.It's Official Undercover Agent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Da_Latios Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Wow, looks nice. I dont get it though, half is like mud huts and mud creatures and the rest is robots with giant guns.

Interesting combination. One theory is that there at least two species - one technological (Mechs/Robots?) and one biological (Pliigi), with potentially a third based on magic or some other mystical force.

Interesting combination. Looks like some sort of future RuneScape >_< or another plane of existance ... runescape was called runescape cuz they found a plane with runes ... well this one can be another plane of existance called mechscape cuz they found mechanical creatures in it ..lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

me Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Looks like some sort of future RuneScape >_< At E3 they started by saying "It's nothing like RuneScape" before stating that it would be browser-based, based the same technology as RuneScape, sci-fi and aimed at an older audience (later expanded to mean 18+). Looks cool, hurry jagex i wanna play -.- Release estimate from Jagex was Q1 2009, then March 2009 and is now Spring 2009.

Zantareous Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 It looks very awesome. It would probably be pretty hard to play the game in anything other than HD since some of those objects would probably still be very big even as sprites. Which means that I need a new computer....

Will H Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Awesome, that's some really great concept art, can't wait for MechScape to be released! ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodArgon Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Knowing how Jagex works, I think this will be an amazing game. I might even switch over if it is good enough. Im a fan of the future type things, but I havnt met a game yet to fufil the type of game play I like. I think Jagex might actually be able to pull it off. I know they said it wont be like runescape, but, just think. Player owned machine shops? Making your own parts, maybe they would go so far as to have player owned shops, without a central GE? 99 Crafting :: 39,750th || 99 Attack :: 1,775th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reztral Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Until I see an official website from Jagex, I'm not convinced that Mechscape is real. And I don't mean just a domain name, I want a full functioning site. --8727th person to achieve 99 Fishing on 8/19/2008----6012th person to achieve 99 Thieving on 10/12/2008--R.I.P.

me Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 Until I see an official website from Jagex, I'm not convinced that Mechscape is real. And I don't mean just a domain name, I want a full functioning site. That is unrealistic. FunOrb didn't have a fully-functioning website until its day of release, and they didn't announce it on the RuneScape website for a few days. They talked about it at E3. Mentions of MechScape directly by name: http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/a3e9ed54-a1e6 ... 07658.html http://www.massively.com/2008/07/15/jag ... mechscape/ http://rpgvault.ign.com/articles/914/914559p2.html https://www.runescape.com/css/jagex/global-20.css https://www.runescape.com/img/jagex/logo_mechscape.gif ...and the EU trademarks. There are various other articles which mention MechScape not by name, and Jagex employees who talk about it in their CVs or portfolios. Jagex have been talking about an undisclosed project in their job vacancies for ages. If you doubt MechScape is real then do a bit of research.

Mr_Adam Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 It looks like a cross between Star Wars and Metroid Prime. Although I have a feeling I won't be able to play it on my computer... or if it's for 18+ I might not be able to in general (Parental rules :o But I probably will anyways) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boatracer22 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 The art look great but i wonder if there will be trade and how they will stop rwt if there is. Yeah I can't spell get over it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me Posted November 15, 2008 Author Share Posted November 15, 2008 The art look great but i wonder if there will be trade and how they will stop rwt if there is. The best I can give you is this quote from a February 2008 interview: is there an argument for getting rid of the inherent grind mechanics of the genre that real-world trading has grown up around trying to "cheat"? Imre Jele: That's a very, very interesting idea, and the only thing I can tell you now is that we have some amazing products going live next year - a new MMO - and we are tackling this issue at a core design level. I think you summed up a very reasonable way to approach this. Mechscape World (the original MechScape fansite) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legilgalad2 Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 The concept art looks good, though Sci-fi games rarely appeal to me. I'll probably check it out around release time then settle back to my Runscape ways :mrgreen: Woodcutting does not raise your combat level because most people do not play as yew trees.

Deathmath Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Wow, looks nice. I dont get it though, half is like mud huts and mud creatures and the rest is robots with giant guns. Interesting combination. One theory is that there at least two species - one technological (Mechs/Robots?) and one biological (Pliigi), with potentially a third based on magic or some other mystical force. Yeah, it makes sense. Some sort of almost 'tremulousey' thing. Thoroughly retired, may still write now and again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

basiliko Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 When there is Warcraft, Starcraft comes after. I think it would be interesting to see a sci-fi version Runescape The Haraguroi Club: Where Yandere Thrive for Chopping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackKingX Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 I don't trust ANY concept art on mechscapeworld.com They posted a Rhino Tank from Warhammer 40k in their concept art section, and who knows how many other things are from different games or whatever.
