X For Blog: Children of sol

Welcome to the future of MMO game play.

First of all, we would like to say that we are NOT an eve clone. While CCP did many many things right when making eve, and we would be stupid to throw all of that away, this game is going to have many features and ideas that no other mmo has had.

Events in Children of Sol Universe are set around about 51,000 years from present day within our current galaxy, the Milky Way. This time is also several hundred years after the main factions of humanity make first contact.

There are 2 main Races, or Empires, the House of Kacylis, and the Arkaedos Federation. Both races are genetic descendants of humanity. They are also technologically advanced, near post-scarcity empires, with tens of trillions of inhabitants living in space or on one of many thousands of settled worlds.

Each are striving towards there own version of post-humanism, or the next phase of human evolution. Each faction is also constructing a Great Core, the foundations of Dyson Sphere, used primarily to meet the energy demands of the civilisations.

So what is the experience for the player going to be like? Well, first of all....the players and player-driven organizations are going to have a large impact on the storyline as a whole. This is YOUR game and YOUR story! Weather you are a small time pirate, or a military powerhouse....your alliances and grudges will determine any outcome of the storyline.

I will be making more post about this at a later time, as development continues and more renders are taken. But untill then, some screen shots.
