Below is an article written by Gaming Blend (click here for the original) about Operation Gamma 41, who recently went to the status of “Open Beta”.

The fascinating new strategy-based MMO from Just A Game is currently in open beta. It really does take the phrase “massive multiplayer” seriously as the entire game’s progression and endgame are based on the decisions each and every player makes.

Simon Seefeldt, Senior Director Online at Just A Game explained how the system worked, saying…

“Operation Gamma 41 offers a unique, never seen before dynamic storyline: the decisions of all the players on a server have a significant impact on how the story develops and will even change the game itself”… “The epic tale surrounding some of the secrets of World War 2 can have multiple endings and is underpinned by a complex economy system, interactive battles that offer many tactical options, diverse character development for Commanders and a very sophisticated PvP-System as well as many options for clans and solo players”

Basically, gamers will assume the role of an Axis or Allied force during 1941 as they battle against each other for territorial control. Much like X-Com (the original and not this remake) Operation Gamma 41 features lots of base maintenance and personnel micromanagement.

The interesting aspect of this game is that for players on the same side, they can team up together and use team tactics to take down foes. Alternatively, there are some secret missions that players will be tasked with carrying out like some sort of special spy.

Well, the game is currently available, up and running for anyone who is looking for something slightly different in the world of multiplayer online strategy games. A few of the key features can be viewed below or you can start playing the game by visiting the Official Website.

Operation Gamma 41 Features:

.Three Factions – choose between Allies and Axis factions, and brace yourself for a brutal encounter with an unknown faction.

.Competitive Combat Modes – challenge your enemies in arena duels, single and Co-op mode, conquer their capitals and forge powerful alliances with your friends.

.Create Unique War Heroes – choose between various, powerful, customizable and upgradable war leaders with different skills, status and breed your own heroes.

.Direct Battle Control – control your ground and airborne troops – move and attack in real time.

.Unique Player Driven Story Line and World events.

Below is an article written by Now Gamer (you can find the original here) about Titan becoming the new destination for current World of Warcraft players according to analyst Edward Woo.

Blizzard’s next MMO could be the ultimate destination for current World of Warcraft players according to analyst Edward Woo

World Of Warcraft 2 is reportedly not on the cards at Blizzard, with Titan believed to be a new IP – and although WoW’s first 20 levels just went free-to-play, Titan is unlikely to follow that model.

“Acceptance and success for the next MMO really depends on the game,” Woo told NowGamer. “If it’s done right, I can see Blizzard transitioning players from WoW to this new game.”

“If it’s done right, I can see Blizzard transitioning players from WoW to this new game”

The Wedbush Securities analyst doesn’t anticipate many Blizzard fans shelling out two subscriptions a month though.

“I don’t think anybody would sign up for two subscription MMOs, so it will likely be an either game choice for most. I think Blizzard’s track record can get the new MMO to do well,” added Woo.

Reports suggest that Titan won’t launch until 2013.

Below is an article written by MMORPG.com (you can find the original here) regarding the guild system recently being analyzed by the Conquer Online team.

The Conquer Online team has posted a new blog about the guild system in the game. It’s a comprehensive look at how guilds are organized and gives a brief tutorial on the guild leader interface.

After constructing a guild, the Leader will have to fight alongside their guild mates in the epic challenge – Guild Wars! Why are so many guilds fighting to win the Guild War? Not only is there spectacular prizes waiting for them, but the winning guild will gain control over a special area – the Guild Area.

In this area, the Guild Conductresses are able to be positioned by the Leader, through use of the Guild Fund. If members from other guilds want to enter the Training Ground, they’ll have to pay for the use of the Guild Conductresses. The collection of entrance fees will be placed safely in the Guild Fund, which can also be used to restore the HP of guild pole when it’s under attack in a Guild War.

Below is an article written by Malaysian Gamer (here is the original) about The Secret World’s new location trailer. Check out the awesome video at the end!

New trailer for The Secret World shows off a new location called the Savage Coast. Located on Soloman Island, it looks like a Chernobyl mixed with ghost and demons. While the game looks terrific, the face of your characters look way too cartoonish for an MMORPG that looks more realistic in all the other parts. No solid release date for this yet. Watch the latest trailer below…

Below is an article written by Massively (find the original here) about the new Alpha County expansion for Fallen Earth.

Welcome to Alpha County, wasteland wanderers! That’s right, the big day is here, as GamersFirst has finally launched (see below) the newest expansion to Fallen Earth. What does this new addition bring to Fallen Earth players? Well… (deep breath!) the largest addition is the eponymous Alpha County zone, which provides endgame-level players with a wealth of new content. The expansion brings the level cap to 55 and introduces a brand-new conflict town called Blockade. Also included are new areas known as Progress Towns. These towns are PvP-centric areas that players can fight over, command, defend, and hopefully, hold.

The expansion also brings a wealth of combat balance changes and new skill lines. The new system “allows for wider varieties of player builds and roles in combat.” In addition, skills will no longer increase alongside the character’s base statistics, thereby requiring more specialized skill investment in order to receive the most powerful abilities. New players aren’t getting left in the dust either, as they will now begin the game with 30 Advancement Points from the get-go, allowing them to take steps toward customizing and defining their characters much earlier in the game. For more information, and to jump into the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Fallen Earth for yourself, head on over to the game’s official site.

[Update: And it’s just been announced that the Alpha County update is delayed until tomorrow. So there’s that.]

Hellooooo!!!

Right then, where do I begin? Numerous years ago Nexon (MapleStory publishers) hired Mr Lloyd Korn to rid the world of MapleStory developments. Mr Korn took it upon himself to contact a previous host and had us remove the section to which I had no choice to comply (Despite the details being incorrect). A friend of mine who had been with RaGEZONE for some time called Francisco who headed FranTech offered us sponsorship (hardware) in exchange for advertising and would permit the use of MapleStory given he was fully aware of the legal situation surrounding it.

Since then, Nexon have issued several court cases against developers who are minors (Underage). During our transfer all attempts from Mr Lloyd Korn where ignored until Nexon then decided to throw down a huge lump sum of money and hired a Bradley J Freedman and unlike Lloyd this man had legitimate credentials and was also very respectful during his communication. Mr Freedman came forth with the same argument as Lloyd but had issued paperwork to sue FranTech for liability.
