Steam has 50m users. Right now (today: 10/3/2012 1700 local est time) it has
Concurrent Steam Users: 4,197,893.
Any F2P game featured on its front page can expect much server pain for as long as it remains on the front page. My guess is 30k to 50k players having a look...and 1/10 of those will hang around if AO goes live on Steam Before the NPE. The rest will go, "My eyes, my eyes!" and log off.
In the words of Mike to the great Heisenberg, no more half measures Walter. When then engine is running to potential. Then release it on steam. Doing it now is like hitting your nitrous in the pit stop. People accept beta engines I know, I play diablo 3, that game had record sales with huge pieces of content missing. Also I read the forums all the time, every little kid you see always references the graphics. If you don't have a choice about delaying steam. I would put all kinds of signs every where that the game is being upgraded. Post all kinds of videos on it. I would make it the most important piece of information. Let the mechanics of t current ao speak for itself

Remember to update the www.anarchyonline.com front page with these monthly updates. (and other updates ofcourse)
An outdated frontpage is a big turn off for people searching for a new mmorpg to play

The Roots - RK1
Side change item should be as it is now, but with only 1 usage per character. I do not want mongrel spies with our Clan brothers. Though it costs a lot to change sides, it still should be usable only once.
edit: Actually, preferably, it would not exist at all. But the new updates and changes are good - apart from Side Change!

You're the man, Ilaliya. I do like how you seem to bring order to the chaos of communication.
A producer, along with the game director, is certainly the position AO has been sorely missing ever since.
Keep up the good work!

Ok - What have you done to my poor advy - The update says that the advy's xp gain buff was brought in line with the crats, but when u look at KOTE's it dose not say anything about the XP gain anymore. I use that a lot while helping people do inf mish's !!!!!!!

Keep in mind: My posts are my own personal views and thoughts.
There are certain professions for wich the atrox breed brings a huge benefit but not one second did I believe everyone was gonna go atrox....
I know of at least 5 people who changed from atrox to something else
Contra

I like the depth to the armor. Hate the helmet though. It looks oversized especially in the new engine photo.
Armor looks nice, helmet looks bobble-head-ish!
Can't wait for more though. Do keep us updated, keeps people interested 8)
