The Repopulation First Look - SW:G style Sci-Fi MMO
241Today I take a look at a new MMO that's trying to bring back the actual open world style of SW:G and UO.
https://www.therepopulation.com/
Unlike other "open world sandbox" MMOs, SW:G and UO were games in which you could join your friends immediately upon making a character and start adventuring with them. There are no "levels" only skill proficiencies. This means that while you may be weak compared to your friends with a new character, it's not like being level 1 trying to fight level 100 monsters.
In addition, you don't even have to have combat proficiencies. You can be a craftsman from the get-go. Armor, weapons, furniture, vehicles, etc. And to top it all off, there will be player housing and base building.
If you guys like this video, I can upload a full, uncut play-session as a bonus video tomorrow where I learn some melee skills and go exploring with Caywood. Let me know if you'd like that in the comments!

-FAQ:
Q: Why is the video only in 360p?
A: Because I make my videos available the instant they're done uploading, but it takes youtube time(up to several hours) to finish processing the videos in full HD. A lot of people either watch on platforms that 360p is fine, or simply don't mind the lower quality and want to watch the videos asap. Either watch in low quality or be patient.
Q: What are your system specs?
A: i5 Ivy Bridge 3570k; 120 gig SSD; 1tb Standard HD(for recording); 8 gigs ram; nVidia Geforce GTX 770 (I run ArmA anywhere between 20-60 FPS, on med-high settings)
Q: What do you use for recording?
A: Fraps for video and system audio; Audacity for personal audio.
Q: Why don't you play in First Person?
A: I'm a 3rd person gamer. I hate first person. It's unrealistically restricting. Please don't try to "convince" me otherwise as if I am unaware of the gaming style I prefer.
Q: Were you in the Military?
A: US Army 99-06, Radio Operator(25C). Non-Combat Veteran.
Q: Is that AI or real people?
A: If it's an ArmA Mission it's AI unless I very specifically state otherwise. The 506th doesn't PvP.
Q: What ArmA 3 mods do you use?
A: AiATP, RHS Escalation, CBA A3, TFAR, AGM, cTab, FHQ Accessories, ASDG Joint Rails, DAR MAXXPROs, grace weapon sway fix, MCC Sandbox, mrb A3 Voice Stop, Robert Hammer Pistols, Sweet Markers, Switch Weapons While Moving
Q: Can I join your ArmA unit?
A: 506th IR Realism Unit: http://www.506thIR.net (Must be 18 or older)
