Considering Sony's big press conference to announce... Maybe? I'm not holding my breath. :)
You should check out "The Secret World". Especially if you like horror, HP Lovecraft in particular, or secret society/global conspiracy stuff. It's free to play and pretty fun, at least I enjoy it but I'm a Lovecraft fanatic so like anything that even pretends to mention the Mythos. :)
Anyway, it's modern world rpg with shooting, if you do try it out I'm on the RP server.

Yea, it's meant more as an RPG than a straight, shooter.

now able to be preordered through steam. im going to continue holding off to see if enough people purchase through steam to get to that third bonus unlock thing. i may go through steam even if they only get to the first preorder slot. the second one is kinda invalid for me as i dont play/subscribe to RIFT, but that third one.... a fucking truck....i want to run shit over [smilie=armata_pdt_05.gif] ...just saying

I have to wait a week before I preorder. The video looks good, looks like graphically it'll will be a bit better than Rift is but the same style.
I'm curious how the mechanics are. Did they go with the usual RPG model or come up with something new?

what do you mean by mechanics? mechanics of/for what?

if you mean fighting, then they are shooter mechanics. they say to expect more of an action game rather than a traditional target, click to attack mechanic.

if you mean leveling, they have a gradual slope that jest keeps going. they said they estimate around 5k is the maximum level, but the longest playing person in alpha only has/had at the time, a level 300 or so. but the levels dont mean you are better/stronger, it just means you have access to more abilities; which i suppose could be considered stronger.
