Fallen Earth state of the game details, well, everything

By Kyle Horner


Fallen Earth — a post-apocalyptic MMO — went through a lot of changes in 2008, but it seems as though it was all for the better. Now with the 'State of the Game' post for January 2009, the game is in the spit 'n shine stage and teams are going back over things that need to look as good as their more recent work. Here's what the game is touting as of right now:

  • 75,000+ text strings
  • Almost 5,500 missions
  • 6,000+ items
  • 14,000+ unique characters/creatures
  • 143,000+ in game objects
  • 70 towns
  • 600+ hrs of content

Wow, our eyes required bulging at the last item on that list. Granted, we're assuming that's an assertion of both questing, killing and various free-form styles of gameplay like PvP.

But that's not all, Icarus Studios has also hired a PR firm to start getting the game's name out on both the web (hello!) and at gaming conventions as well. We're excited for the game to move from alpha and into beta in the coming months so we can finally get our perfectly sanitized hands on it. Yes, we promise — lots of disinfectant.
