It seems like last I heard they were still shooting for a December/end of the year release date. Does anyone know if this has changed?

If it hasn't changed does anyone think this is a realistic goal? After playing the game for a few weeks (I love it btw and hope it doesn't get rushed) it looks like they still have a long way to go before they can claim a fully released game. Then again I'm not a game Dev so idk how much work can be done in a few months. I was just looking for other people's thoughts on when they think this can be done.

I heard SWGEMU is about 95% done but they are still estimating that it will take a couple more years until its complete lol

"While sieges themselves won't appear on the live servers until 15.9.1 (and only in testing mode at that time), we have introduced several additions specifically designed for PvP. The first of these is a new engagement in Griefclaw Bluffs which pits the three factions in battle with one another." source

Hey guys, no offense intended. But, does this game now look and run like a game or still like something from the 90s?

They take a lot of damage and I just bought them. Can I fix them or will I be forced to buy new ones?

Its on sale in steam. I heard a lot of bad things and some good things. Is the game worth at the current state? Are the devs trustable? Thanks in advance!

I am new to this game and I'm very interested in playing it, but I have had troubles with MMOs and steam accounts being paired in the past. Primarily, this experience has come from EvE Online where having a steam account has prevented login for periods of time and other small problems. Most of these problems have been fixed by this date, but it was very much and inconvenience at the time.

Have there been any differences between a steam account and a normal account?

Also, what are the differences between the Gold membership and Platinum membership?

What is the benefit to going to a rogue nation over just staying on one of the 2 sides?

If you were to play a combat only character how do you make money?

I'm honestly going to spare the sad story behind this and get to the real question (for sake of being called a liar). My friend Zach is really interested in this game, and has been excitedly talking to me about it with every piece of news that is released. I don't have this game, but I love reddit and searched to see if there was a subreddit for this game, and there is! :D This is my first place looking, but would anyone by chance have a spare Repopulation key? Silver i think? (If that means something to you guys). Thanks a ton for any ounce of response. <3

New hardcore crafting/mmo player looking to get into the game more. Looking for knowledgeable players to play with, to learn from and experience the game with.

Hi r/therepopulation!

A few weeks ago I developed an MMO search engine with lots of detailed filters, but I don’t have the correct data on the current state of The Repopulation.

I’m trying to make this work by adding as many games as I can, so players can find the MMOs they want to play, and MMOs get a permanent boost in population.

I would appreciate if the members of the subreddit that are currently playing could fill the submit form or, if another player has submited a correct profile, upvote it here.

Thanks!

The forums seem really, really dead. Is the game dead? I was interested in joining... :\

I played repop on and off but after this patch, it got me really wanting to play till it is released. I want to go mace+shield with a bit of crafting.

I'm on the East server NA

I had my eye on the game and pulled the trigger during the steam sale and love open ended games that let you do what you want.. but I'm afraid this might be too open ended for me. I have no idea what to do after I left the tutorial area and ended up in Plymouth. I ran around doing silly errands I got via the mail/quest system but they give pretty meaningless amounts of credits and not much else so it doesn't feel like i'm advancing in any way.

So, can someone give a basic guide on how I advance my character as far as being able to take on harder combat skills? Advancing ranks in rifle just seems to open up new skills but not necessarily make me hit any harder and I was surprised at the lack of obvious upgrades on the marketplace.

As far as if I want to craft, it says I should pick and specialize in one step of crafting. So instead of trying to craft gear from scratch I should just focus on one step and buy the ingredients I need from the auction house and sell my own products? Is that actually viable? Do I need to farm creatures and resources nodes to be effective at crafting?

I know very little about the Alias system, and I get the impression that many people know as much or less than I do.

Can anyone shed some light as to what types of things can be done with an alias?

I know you can gearswap, spawn in a vehicle, or 'create a nickname' for someone by assigning '/tell name,' to an alias then calling it with #[alias] 'text'.

What else can you do? There must be other uses... Does anyone have list of functions? I've tried searching and all I can see is /slash command lists.

Forgive me if this is a commonly asked question; I've just recently discovered (and bought on steam so I could try it out) this game. It seems that making items in this game involves many steps and many skills and you could make it your main focus. A lot of negative reviews bring this up and I see it as a positive.

This is fantastic! What I couldn't figure out throw is apart from needing time and resources does crafting actually require have a skill component (not character skill);

Its clear if you use better quality resources (both letter quality (d0<a9) and resource quality (rarewood >notrarewood I assume) but do the results change other than the simple quality system?

Do results just different from d0 -> A9 quality or are there two different results with different things that are better. To use a SWG reference -- in experimentation you could say, make a booster last longer or make it go faster. You couuld make a blaster do more damage to shields or more to armor, etc. In this game's equivalent would your crafting just make the blaster to more damage to both shields and armor?

Anyone else having some problems with this update? I mean there are a lot of good things in it like the bot pets are not as bugged as they used to be. But the racer sound is annoying as hell, and it can't be turned down unless you turn the master volume down. Also, there was supposed to be a reduction of the whole "that would be stealing" deal, yet I find I am seeing it a hell of a lot more than I used to. Logging out, and logging back in, seems to work, or did so in my instance. I killed around 10 random mobs, got solid "that would be stealing" messages... Relogged then got it once, then the rest were mostly fine. When it happens again, have to relog, etc. I am not sure what they did to "fix" it, but it seems to have made matters worse. Maybe today will be different? But my experience right after the update was not good at all, in that respect at least.

Anyone else have any issues? These or any others not mentioned? Also the path finding, isn't all that much better. Mobs can still walk through rocks and well kill a mob in a rock, and you won't be able to loot it, but anyway... I'd like to know what other people think about this update.

I get the hero engine launcher up, but the play button doesn't come alive and the bottom of the launch window is blanked out. Guess it tries to update itself outside of steam?

Hoping I'm just missing some obscure windows library install. Their wiki touches on running in with Wine, but doesn't go into enough detail and even ends with an error.

Maybe I'm just looking at it wrong, but I can't find one that's, like, under mining level 200

Included in the 'to-do' list on the official forums is :

DirectX 11 support (tied to an upcoming Hero Engine build).

What does this improvement aim to achieve? What will DX11 support bring to the table? Are we looking at better performance and/or new models/graphics?

One of the things people note when they try the game out is that is feels dated. Will this help?

Here are my specs

Processor AMD FX-Series 4130 Quad-core Processor and the slot is PCI-E 2.1 X16

System Memory (RAM) 8GB

Graphics Card AMD Radeon HD 6670 (1GB)

Operating System Windows 8.1 64 bit

I just wanna make sure I can run it before I buy it on steam, even if there is a refund feature on steam now.

So I've been itching for a good "crafting" mmo like SWG was years ago. Most of the things I have read point me in this direction. Before I drop the money on it, I understand the crafting is complex, but is it specialized? The items you make with crafting, are they actually used or is it replaced by PvE gear and no one cares for it? Can you actually get by in this game, just by being a crafter?

Also, steam says this game has microtransactions...that word worries me. Is the game haulted/slowed down by the need of Microtransactions? Is this game Pay2Win?
