http://rerollgame.com/the-game/
A survival action role-playing game set in an accurate reproduction of the planet Earth.
The world, society, order, everything is going down the drain and fast. Flashing your credit card at your groceries cashier will not get you food.
To survive, you will have to develop skills that you did not need prior to this melt down.
Before being able to hunt, capture or grow your own food, you’ll have to scavenge or steal what’s around. That means constantly looking over your shoulder while doing those rounds. Because, the last thing you want is to be on the receiving end of somebody arrow or bullet. Worst, being chased by those weird mutants that are just getting more aggressive as days goes by.

If I had to endure through your amazing threads in the bitching session I think that you can endure one or more posts like that from me 
And it's my opinion, what the hell is so ambitious about this?
Post apoc online RPG #6 or 7?

They are really over complicating their crowdfunding and it kind of looks shady avoiding KS. I'm already turned off by this

Where does it mention SP?

We’re still investigating which physical location of the world will be covered in BRICK 1 but what you can expect is a small area (few miles/km) where you will be able to play (single player and online coop) with your character. Dronesourcing Our goal is to get the maximum diversity into the “smallest” possible area so we can implement a large number of mechanics.
The perfect candidate would have:
An easy to justify enclosed area (like an island)
Different biomes and altitude
Weather variations (to make the Reality System Sync implementation noticeable)
Small urban settings with roads (could be village(s), a small town or scattered settlements)
A place which could act as an interesting indoor dungeon/instance (like a department store or an abandoned mine)
Last but not least, it has to be in a country where it’s already legal to use drone for commercial usage (for example: it’s not yet authorized on US ground)
We already have few candidates in mind and -disclaimer- not a single one match all the criteria above but they all have interesting potential.
We hope to be able to announce something in the upcoming weeks/months. |
Fair enough but strange that it isn't even mentioned on the main page so I'd bet it's some afterthought SP/co-op that they're planning.
Focus seems to be more on the online so... pass
NEXT!

It may well turn out to be the greatest zombie, sorry mutant, RPG ever - but I'm not impressed at the moment and that's my initial impression.

I actually kinda like the concept, but the rest sounds...fishy. The video focused on the "epic" drones and earth scanning seemed a bit off, too. But oh well, we'll see.
Wake me up when (if) the ISOdemo gets released

What is ReROLL?
ReROLL is PIXYUL’s first game, It’s an ambitious project with an unusual approach, the game is an Online Open World Survival Action RPG, maybe we could call this an OOWSARPG ? But it’s really more a Crowdfunded Persistent Online Open World Survival Action RPG, so that would make it a CPOOWSARPG…!!! |
They really seem to want emphasize the ONLINE persistent world aspect of it.
Your character is always active even when you aren't so you need to monitor it. So they want you to keep up with your character using your phone/mobile device as well. Jesus...
and no PVP is going to make it quite unpopular with a lot of people that play these types of games. Personally, I'm tired of PvP anyway. When there is no penalty for being an asshat griefer, people don't care about ruining your experience. (IMO)
Becoming less and less interested in this....

Will there be a DRM ?
Not in the usual sense BUT you’ll need an internet connection to fully appreciate the game.
We know how controversial this can be for some of you but it’s at the heart of the fantasy we’re building, especially the Reality System Sync .
These gameplay mechanics are very MMO-esque and it needs data input to simulate reality.
Now we will allow you to play offline and there will be no DRM preventing you to do so but the experience will be downgraded (and potentially seriously downgraded if you can’t connect at all).
To make sure there is no ambiguity: We’re primarily building an online game. Offline capacities will be a back-up solution.

They want to map the whole world with drones? Ok, that sounds realistic.

 so let me guess ... its a f2p game with micro-transactions that will speed up the time you need to achieve things , all thanks to your "Mobile tracking app that governs your TIME''
all this to give a isometric MMO game based on laser scans of the world...
guess congo will be taken from google maps
Imagine :
Shit we need to scan this , jungle in some shit hole... we need to scan Russia or Greece

I wouldn't mind seeing more real word/modern time based games. Think you can make interesting concepts about the world we live in. I applaud the ambition, but frankly I don't see these guys pull it off (I'd love to be wrong however).
Well in all honesty I just want 'MMO's' or games in general going back to the days we dreamed of virtual worlds and make it happen. Reason why I so love the rpg genre it's one of the few where they at least try to create an entire world.

I think when you live your life 24/7 working in/with/about games, you don't realize how much a pain in the ass is worrying about a game. Anyone with a minimal active social life wanna play games when they feel like it, not cause they have to. I wanna boot up my game to have fun blasting some zombies, not cause i need to check if everything is alright. jesus.

I think they designed their game packages first, and they are now building a game around them.
