Just some news on a fellow non-fantasy MMORPG:
News Release here: http://www.rgtr.com/news/latest_news/index.html
14 Months after launch, Tabula Rasa is shutting down. Kinda funny considering NC is still running :lol: ok, maybe slowly crawling. Kinda.
But the announcement is somewhat strange since they've been putting all the new teasers out about the new content, FPS mode, weapon scopes, etc, and the Devs have been talking about a lot of upcoming patches & changes... and they just released this Earth video: http://static.plaync.com/media/tr/video/tr_earthpromo.mov
To the Tabula Rasa Community,
Last November we launched what we hoped would be a ground breaking sci-fi MMO. In many ways, we think we've achieved that goal. Tabula Rasa has some unique features that make it fun and very different from every other MMO out there. Unfortunately, the fact is that the game hasn't performed as expected. The development team has worked hard to improve the game since launch, but the game never achieved the player population we hoped for.
So it is with regret that we must announce that Tabula Rasa will end live service on February 28, 2009.
Before we end the service, we'll make Tabula Rasa servers free to play starting on January 10, 2009.
We can assure you that through the next couple of months we'll be doing some really fun things in Tabula Rasa, and we plan to make staying on a little longer worth your while. For more details about what we are doing for Tabula Rasa players, please click here.
Stay tuned for more information. We thank you for your loyal support of the game and encourage you to take us up on the benefits we're offering Tabula Rasa players.
