I know people like H&H and minecraft but have you seen the new proper sandbox MMO http://www.xsyon.com/
Few of the guys from my darkfall clan nomads are playing. its still beta really but its a fun sandbox, its alot like H&H how you build villages only better and you can terraform slightly like minecraft only better.
If your interested I would watch this video review for pros/cons of the game

Looks interesting.
-
Looks pretty good, might give it a try.
-
Yeah i might try it too...
-
I've played H&H and i have minecraft both soo i'll might try it :D
-
Ok, I'm sold. I'm gonna give it a shot.
-
It still needs alot of work but its already a very fun and addictive crafting/building sandbox ;)
-
Sounds really really cool. I'm one of those post-apocalypse/survival fans, and this just sounds awesome.
BUT : $40 to buy AND a $15.00 monthly fee?
-
Hmm, game mechanics sounds a bit like Roma Victor.
-
So what you are saying is that it is a combination of two terrible, shitty games that are designed for toddlers? Sounds awesome bro.
-
Nevermind, I watched the video and it looked decent...
But..
"Not a PVP centric game"
Its a shame, because if this game had Mount and Blade style combat it would be supreme
-
Looks pretty sweet, but dont need another monthly $$$ game
-
This sounds like every thing I've ever wanted..in one game. Yeah, I'm gonna buy this.
-
It's very tedious.
And it's a little.... empty.
Lacking in guidance/tutorial too.
Walked around and played with everything for an hour before I figured what everything does.
-
Got the game just for curiousity,
Also in the public forum one of the devs was suggestive towards an MnB style combat system added in later.
This game with MnB style combat would completely dominate.
-
Can't wait for and MMO with M&B combat to come out, it would be really really hard for it to suck. In fact I am surprised game developers from other studios haven't ripped off that concept from Taleworlds, yet. I wonder how long will it take others to catch up? Currently many MMO's use Warcraft's type of combat but lets face it, that sucks compared to what M&B has going on.
-
Oh boy look at that fun combat.

According to a dev on the forums:
"A new programmer is starting next week. He's worked on combat and AI in the past and this will be his focus once he gets situated and comfortable with the code."
This was a few days ago, so hopefully it will improve, but yes looks very rediculous atm XD

This.
I have both Minecraft and H&H and I think I will be sticking to those. Xsyon looks really empty, bland and boring (also p2p? hell no). And I don't like the postapocalyptic-indian/cowboy setting either.
-
I have aready preorderd the game its fun :)
-
It sounds a lot like RV because it's coded from the same guy who coded a lot of Roma Victor. Loved Roma Victor. Don't like Xsyon.
-
It's one of the only new sandboxes which you can terraform that beats all recent released "sandboxes" you can watch on their forum people planing on how to build their towns with walls,ecc say similar to minecraft.
I would like to pre order it but I don't have money to spend atm else I would try in a heartbeat.

check the date on that video bro
1 year old!
but yeah no one has ever said xyson is a combat orientated game but the combat is still better than simular orientated games like H&H and minecraft and that video.

funny my friend said that and yet its a pretty retarded thing to say when H&H is also a colonisation of america setting, H&H is pretty much the exact same setting but in lame-tactular 2d.
Its not my favourite setting either but doesn't effect the gameplay.
ANYWAY
xsyon is going through a lot of shit atm not worth playing until its hopefully fixed by the time it releases.
