Don't care much for the overall majority of the community nor for the team, but I for one would like to see this game published. Curious to see whether FSE can back up its claims of effortlessly having a minimum of 500 players populate a single server without any significant lag. Personal grievances aside, the idea still sounds as exciting as it did one year ago.
The network engine will indeed help to make or brake this game.
As for failure I think everyone has different standards by which they will measure failure and success while I am certain some people would prefer to see failure while others won't or don't care.
Marketing still hasn't taken place yet and will only take place once the the alpha is ready and presentable for video footage. So far most of these current contributions are most likely from current forum members or the NW community.
The project itself is not dependent on donations, but the donations help to splash out on content. Being witness to some of the transactions that go on behind the scenes I can safely say FSE hasn't had to cut any major corners yet afaik but then I am only there part of the time. I just hope there's no major hiccups down the track.
About a year ago work was still in progress on the network engine and content creation which was a bottleneck at the time and since then work has steadily moved to entail content implementation and I am guessing coding of gameplay mechanics for the alpha version of the game. It was nice for donators to actually get to see some video footage of the first steps in this.
There have been delays however, no doubt about it, but if every project that faced delays was a failure then you could probably scrap half the games out there.
As for kickstarter, it has been mentioned that its a hassle and internally there is no urgent need for funding so its not currently needed.

I don't know what to expect. I'm sure the game will be alright but if anything the community will probably ruin it.

Remember, it's still in a very early alpha. There is still much to come.Vieira said:

As much as I generally dislike the NW community and developers, this has piqued my interest. But, as Einzige said, if the community is anything like NW's current community, it's going to get driven into the ground within a week. I miss MM_Prussia, when the community was cool.

Note they are all the same. They're place-holders.Vieira said:
Anyway, the NW community is terrible and since it'll be them that found the community of FSE and inevitably shape new members. Thus I have little interest, as interesting as the game sounds. I also have a prejudice against a few members of the FSE team, but I won't get into that.
I doubt the character models are place-holders; they're the ones they've had entire developer blogs about.
Models maybe, shaders no. They are yet to implement their own shaders and in those pictures the default Unity ones are used (which, as you can see, look pretty gankyDocm30 said:

Alright, question here, what the hell did the guys over at FSE do to get everyone here so pissed off? A decent of the stuff I've read in this thread is hoping that the game will crash and burn. Y'all realize you're talking basically about the livelyhood of these guys, right?

The default Unity shaders support everything you need for a character model. If they don't look good with those, they will never look good.
Do you have proof that he did? Child molestation isn't something you throw around lightly. Your question makes it sounds like you're already convinced he did despite there being nothing, except rumours, to back it up. It's innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around. You're asking the wrong question.
