Earthrise is a post-apocalyptic science fiction MMORPG from Bulgaria, set in the dark future of the planet Earth. The game is designed to run on the Windows operating system, and will be launching in 2009. Players will need to pay a monthly fee to play Earthrise.

What is Earthrise

In the aftermath of the Third World War, mankind has managed to survive and build a new society: the prosperous city of Sal Vitas. Cloning, nanotechnology and quantum engineering are part of a new reality. Thanks to these technological advances, the human species has become immortal; each individual's consciousness is stored in a data vault, ready to be uploaded into a cloned body as necessary. New energy sources have been discovered. There is a unified government that takes good care of those citizens who abide by its strict laws. Paradise, it appears, might really have come to Earth, and the people have embraced it.

But not everything is as perfect as it appears. By exercising full control over the cloning process, Sal Vitas' government decides who will live and who will not, playing the role of God on Earth. Insurgent forces have accused the city's rulers of crimes against humanity. Armed factions fight for resources and power within the new system. And from the waves of discontent, a rebellion has fomented and formed a shadow government: Noir.

Featuring a unique skill-based advancement system and player-driven economy, as well as extensive, meaningful player-vs.-player combat, Earthrise gives you innumerable choices to forge your destiny. Whether you're a noble soldier in the raging conflict between the Utopia and the rebellion, a criminal hiding from the law or a world-renowned engineer whose power extends into intricate trade and politics, your actions will echo throughout the game world.

    All MMOs have the same basic elements just like all fantasy books have the same basic things in them. It's just little tiny differences between one and the other so it really doesn't matter wether it's korean or what ever just play it.

    I remember when mmorpgs were RPGS.

    I remember when the graphics were not childish.

    I remember when mmorpgs were HARD.

    I remember when mmorpgs had a STORY LINE.

    I remember when mmorpgs weren't developed by Koreans.

    I remember when the mmorpgs required more than your hand to play.(your brain was essential)

    I remember when mmorpgs were hard to be pwnd by 8 years ultra-strong-cash-equips-rich-kids.

    I remember when Gms were nice people instead hardcore-gamers.

    I remember when the games WERE GLOBAL.

    I remember when mmorpgs had a nice community and good /honorable players.

    When MMORPGs was Fun?


    I like S4 Leageue, its pretty fun. The Gfx aren't bad, the music is fun and energetic. However the game gives me a headache after an hour or so playing.... There is a bit of an issue as far as Lag goes. It's the specific person/player lagging, not the entire server. Other than that though...its pretty fun. Oh and I had my first experience with a hacker/glitcher/cheater. God it was annoying...

    S4 League Open Beta Review


    Champion Online will be just as horrible as City of Heroes/Villians. My money is on DC Universe Online, DC has some the best heroes of all time. Imagine fight along side Batman or Superman. I know SOE is working with WB and they messed up both Star Wars Galaxies and The Matrix, but who knows. They might actual get it right with DCUO. None the less I know Cryptic and they suck way more than Sony.

    Who will be the CHAMPION in the online Superhero Wars?


    Mabi is fairly easy if you play it for longer than 2 weeks. But does it need skill? Hardly. It takes mental conditioning to the system, and repetition of the few successful tactics. A trained monkey can do this crap.

    The PvE system takes some getting used to for sure, but when you learn a set of tactics to use against the basic types of dungeon monsters, that's all you'll ever use (from a range of 5 chains of skills/attacks).

    Same goes for bosses. You use the fire-counter (maybe slow walk if it's a stomping boss) and you can do it. Again pretty basic...

    What's the Most Challenging MMORPG?


    S4 all the way. S4 follows the instructions of the game way more than gunz. In gunz I find ppl try to beat the system alot by not fighting "straight up". Like the whole slash-shot gun move. After that gunz jus lost it's taste to me. i really like s4 much better.

    The Comparison between S4 and Gunz

    Don't know what NCsoft is up to, but whatever they are doing, they are doing it nicely, and it ain't hurting nobody. Just love how NCsoft is now investing in games that will stand a chance to live just as long as Maplestory (don't you DARE boo me). Another game to make room in my hard-drive for.
