First, if you haven't seen the series called Firefly go do your research right now! Off you go, shoo..

To the point:
I'm sure there are some Browncoats out here and I couldn't find any previous topics on the matter so here it is; <span class="bold">Firefly Online</span>

Now is anyone else as gorram excited as I am about this game? What do you think, shiny or not?

I like Firefly, but this does nothing for me.
Maybe after I've seen some trailers, but I doubt it.

Take my games, take my RAM, take my PC where it cannot stand. I don't care, I'm DRM free, you can't keep the GOG from me.

Had no idea this was out there. I'm not sure if it will be any good, but it sounds like they are taking a non-traditional approach to an online game, which could be interesting. Almost sounds like a 'single player mmo', which, yeah...doesn't make any sense. If they do justice to the universe it could be really successful. Thanks for putting this on my radar!

You're welcome!
The promised release is this summer so should start hearing more from them soon I hope. Apologies for that! =(
Would be pure gold though, assuming they made it right. Fortunately Joss Whedon has a history of being very strict with the modifications of lore of Firefly, so if there's going to be more episodes they will most likely be similar than the first season. That is if they ever get the money to do them...

FOX is such an odd network. They seem more willing than anybody to give different shows a chance and at the exact same time they are unwilling to give those shows a decent opportunity to find an audience and thrive. A good number of my favorite shows come from FOX yet they tend to mistreat those shows, I just don't get it.

There was magic when you had the crew of the Firefly on-screen. But this looks too much like a Privateer MMO to me. And while I'll still hope and keep the page bookmarked, I can't help but wonder: how much of Firefly or Serenity is there without the cast and the dialog? How much do you really care about the poor colonials and fear the Reavers when you're fetching ten primary buffer panels for someone's falling-apart ship and hoping to get a pint of strawberries for a reward?

I'm old and cranky, and I'd be very happy to be wrong about this. Either way, thanks for the link. Didn't know about it 'til just now. ^_^

This.

I am not excited for it. Due to the fact that it a mobile game being ported to PC...

While I would love a Firefly game, it has to have an offline mode for me to even waste my time with it. And, the name specifies Online, so I doubt it has one.

Thanks for the heads-up. This could be a lot of fun.

It'll be interesting at least, to see if they manage to pull this through. I sure hope so!

Here's a good night teaser: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XC8uD9fTz-c

There already is a Firefly game, and it's older than Firefly. It's called Frontier - Elite 2. Just just have to make up the rest in your head :-P

Not in the slightest.

I'll stick to the DVDs and board game.
