Black Prophecy; Next Gen reflex based MMO space shooter - tazuras - 03-12-2010

If you havent been following this game, you really should be. Closed beta starts soon, here are the details in brief:
  • Next-generation graphics
    Black Prophecy uses the latest in graphics technology to produce breathtaking visuals.

  • Fast-paced action combat
    Black Prophecy is more action-oriented than a traditional space simulation. We are trying to avoid long travel times or other activities where the player isn't really doing anything.

  • Exciting Player vs. Player combat
    Black Prophecy allows players to organize big PvP battles and also offers varied PvP missions.

  • Captivating Story
    Black Prophecy's universe, story and background has been created by the award-winning Sci-Fi author Michael Marrak.

  • Modular ship design
    Player ships are not sold as whole, but instead consist of modules like cockpits, wings, engines etc. All these modules are available in different shapes and sizes, which allows the players to customize their ships.

  • Item modification system
    In addition to the modular ship design, players can also further customize their ships by adding modifications to their ship's modules and weapons.

  • Modular clan station system
    Player clans can build clan stations that are expandable through a module system. Different modules add different functionalities to the station.

  • Resource system
    Clans can fight each other to conquer resource stations.

  • Award and medal system
    Similar to an achievement system, players can earn medals and awards for performing specific tasks.

  • Tactics system
    Players can learn and execute breakneck flight maneuvers.

looks good.

not too sure about the 'two races' thing though, nor the 'instances'.

seems that in trying to avoid certain FL-esque problems, they've created a new batch...
