A friend and I picked this game up a while back ( I think like 2014?) we freakin loved the game.World was huge, lots of stuff to do as well. Combat wasn't that great and neither were the graphics but I genuinely had a lot of fun with the crafting system and the class system. My biggest gripe though was population. Such a big world with so little people at the time that I tried it out. I hope they are able to follow through with a reboot. I'd love to play it again and this time with a lot more players in the mix.

I don't think they have the ability to rebuild the game with their finances. The only big games on their list are APB and Fallen Earth - nither of which are particularly heavy hitting enough to finance that kind of move.As much as I LOVE Fallen Earth. It has fantastic atmosphere, great crafting, fun gameplay, it just needs that little kick to make it truly special.

(and maybe a rebalance and better servers. PVP is aids.)If they actually are able to reboot the game and not pull a Defiance on us, then fantastic! I'll definitely be trying it out once it's done. When this game was pretty fresh I got into.

It was pretty damn cool. I was wary to start because of all the complaints about lack of content back then, but I dove in anyway. I eventually got distracted by other games as I usually do and returned to it quite a while later.

They had massively improved the new player experience, but I just really didn't like the controls. I don't know if I was more accepting the first time about or they changed them. That is one primary area I hope they focus on.Otherwise, the game had a lot of potential. If they did a reboot I could see myself giving it a whirl again.

Fallen Earth was a free-to-playMMO developed by Reloaded Productions (formerly by North Carolina-based Icarus Studios and Fallen Earth).^[2] The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland located around the American Grand Canyon. Fallen Earth's gameplay features FPS/RPG hybridization, first-person/third person views, hundreds of items, including improvised equipment and weapons, a variety of functional vehicles, a real-time, in-depth crafting system (which includes vehicles), various skills and abilities, factions and tactical PvP, all existing within 1000 square kilometers of usable terrain based on real-world topographical maps of the area. The game was released on September 22, 2009. Two years later, GamersFirst purchased the intellectual property and made the game free to play. It was acquired by the publisher Little Orbit in 2018.

Plot[edit]

The Fallen Earth story begins in the 21st Century, when the first in a series of natural disasters hits the United States. As Americans struggle to recover, an investment tycoon named Brenhauer buys a controlling stake in a mega-corporation named GlobalTech. By 2051, he moves his headquarters to the Grand Canyon Province, where GlobalTech eventually creates a self-sufficient economic and military mini-state. Meanwhile, in India and Pakistan, the Shiva virus, named for the dance-like convulsions that it caused in its victims, appears among the human populace. As the infection starts to spread, countries accuse each other of engineering the virus. Political paranoia turns to open aggression and nuclear conflict. The nuclear conflict combined with the virus devastates the planet. Less than one percent of Earth's population survived the Fall, and the Hoover Dam Garrison and Grand Canyon Province are the only known outposts of human civilization. Outside the protective confines of the Hoover Dam Garrison, the player encounters ruins of the old world, genetically altered creatures, strange technology, and six warring factions. Some factions seek to rebuild the old world, others wish to build a new one in their own image, and some simply desire chaos and anarchy.

Gameplay[edit]

The game world of Fallen Earth is based on a real-world topographical map of the Grand Canyon. The world map covers more than 1000 square kilometres of usable terrain.^[3] The environment is zoneless and set in sectors which continue the story-arc of the game, and which can be advanced through at the player's own pace. Parts of the map will be unreachable at release, but will be gradually opened as more content is developed.^{[citation needed]}

The game includes first-person and third-person views, a classless system, Player-versus-Player combat, mounted combat, crafting, and a noise-based stealth system. Fallen Earth offers customizable features, including: clothing, facial features, skin tones, hairstyles and colors, age, body and facial hair, body art (tattoos and piercings), height, and makeup. Also after this process players can add points to their character to build strength and other skills. Fallen Earth does not have a fixed class system. It uses skill-based character development with a strong emphasis on flexibility and player preference. The game features active skills—trade-skills as well as mutation-based skills—which can be increased through Advancement Points (APs) or skill usage. Advancement Points are earned alongside level experience, and aside from increasing skill points, can also be used to boost Attributes. Players can undo and 're-spec' their skill point allocation.^{[citation needed]}

Combat in Fallen Earth is generally in a first-person shooter format. The camera can be moved to alternate between third and first person modes. Players will need to manually keep their targets in a targeting reticle to actually hit them in combat. Skills can be used to influence combat in different ways, but again, enemies must still be manually targeted. There is no 'target locking' as in other MMOs. There are three main methods of dealing damage in the game. These are broken down by a weapon's effective range. Rifles, pistols, and melee are the primary weapon types. Rifles specialize in long distance damage, but are capable of using some short distance weaponry. Pistols are considered the most balanced of the weapon types, able to do damage at medium to short range. Melee, with its short range, is for close-quarters combat.^[4]Fallen Earth has thousands of items as well as equipment and accessories of varying strength for players to craft and equip in up to 22 separate equipment slots. Each piece of equipment varies in weight, and possesses different qualities. Heavier equipment, for example, will generally offer higher defense bonuses, but also increases noise while moving - making stealth more difficult. Fallen Earth allows its players to carry as many as six active weapons which alter the character's appearance. The game also has a variety of vehicles. Players start out neutral in Fallen Earth and can remain neutral or choose to align themselves with a particular faction. Aligning with a faction will give characters a head start in skills and specialized equipment.^{[citation needed]} The game supports PhysX^[5] and Vivox, Inc.'s in-game voice communication technology.^[6]

Development[edit]

After a number of years in the making, Fallen Earth developers announced in a June 2008 press release that the game had reached feature-complete status.^[7] In October 2008, the Fallen Earth website reported that the game had reached content-complete status.^[8] The first wave of Alpha tests began in August 2008, and closed Beta testing began in February 2009.^[9] As part of a promotional campaign, Fallen Earth announced a National Tour on their website in February 2009.^[10] They planned to sponsor IGDA meetings, and participating in events across the United States, doing public demonstrations promoting the game and taking part in question-and-answer sessions with the audience.^{[citation needed]}

The game was released on September 22, 2009 with pre-orders from Direct2Drive, Steam and the official website granting early access from September 9, 2009.^[11][12] On March 10, 2010, Icarus Studios announced the beta release of Fallen Earth for the Mac OS X platform. The Mac OS X version of Fallen Earth uses Wine technology and requires an Intel-based Mac system with a discrete graphics processor.^[1] On April 5, 2010, the Fallen Earth team announced that Lee Hammock was leaving Fallen Earth to work as story designer on a new MMO title, Gargantuan.^[13] On April 30, 2010, Chief Executive Officer of Icarus Studios, Inc., James Hettinger, announced a restructure of the company resources and staffing, effective immediately.^[14] Among these changes was the promotion of Fallen Earth writer/content developer Wes Platt to Director of Content Development.^[15] On May 4, 2010, Fallen Earth, LLC, announced a new distribution partnership with Interactive Gaming Software (IGS),^[16] a subsidiary of Atari USA.^{[citation needed]}

On June 15, 2011, it was announced that GamersFirst had purchased the intellectual property of the game and that the game would be going 'free to play'.^[17] The game went 'Free to Play' on 13 October 2011.^[18]

On September 2, 2019 Matt Scott a Developer for fallen earth under little orbit announced that on October 2, 2019 Fallen earth servers will be taken offline While a new version of the game is worked on.
