    Thanks for the reminder about the TB video! Please note that that awesome video was captured pre-alpha and even the day after the interview the game had grandly changed.

    We then had 5 weeks of community input and our own QA evaluations during the Alpha test to add, tweak, and improve the development of the content and game play. It has been very exciting to watch the game evolve over the past three months and I love getting to play test the new content and features!

    The closed beta promises to be amazing!
    Stay tuned!

    p.s.
    Even though a bit dated on content, still a great video!

    First off, let me introduce myself. My username may not be familiar to you, but my CoH global is @tamlaeyn. I am a long time loyal player on the Virtue Server (since 2006), one of the founding members of the Cerulean Legion, a friend to the Gods of the Golden Age, leader of many a BAF & Peregrine Island Mission Team runs, and loyal player … when I have had the time.

    I am also one of the narrative content designers on the new MMORPG City of Steam.

    What is City of Steam?
    "A full-featured, browser-based 3D MMORPG, that transports players to Nexus, an industrial metropolis that has fallen from grace. Emerging from the ashes of ages past, heroes versed in swordplay, divine harmonies, and the arcane arts seek their fortune in a world beset by countless foes, from dangerous factions to mechanical horrors. This is a world where wondrous feats of industry and technology are front and center."

    Unfortunately I can't find system specs for either CoS or Unity so I can't tell you what they are but most browser games have low specs so you'll probably be able to run it.
    CoS_Danielmc here!
    FYI: We are out of our Alpha test and heading into Beta soon.
    During Alpha, our game ran on PC and Mac browsers with the Unity Plug-in. Users will be able to adjust resolution, depth, and other setting before you enter the game. Our exact specifications page will return when we have them set for the new version of the game.
    thanks!

    Has this changed?

    thanks,
  6. I am the sole surviving member and now leader of a defunct SG with a huge BAse. I want to rename and repurpose the SG and keep the base, but that is not currently possible.

    will this be coming available soon?
