Is there something preventing people in America from downloading and playing on the Euro servers?I’m not sure, you’re welcome to try it, though.
Also, even given the download size, it’s most definitely worth it. Also, even being an MMO, the sort-of-singleplayer-campaign is nothing to sneeze at.

anything known about the system requirements?
-
an HIGH END pc for no lag, but with a mid-range computer, it’s pretty good (i ran it on my laptop with a 8600M GT and a T7500 processor with 3 Go RAM) so, it’s not a crazy gamer computer…
-
so you can chose some options to enhance performance on a weeker machine, right?
-
Someone tell them to buy the rights to FL and make a proper FL2.
-
2.2GHz, 1.5GB RAM, 8600GT. Struggling at the lowest possible settings.
-
To anyone curious, I just gave it a shot and they do not accept accounts created in North America. Anyone who isn’t in Europe is just SOL if they want to play.
-
SOL?
-
You’ll have to wait a few days/weeks.

Defintivly a nice game and I can only recommend it to you.
Since many people complained about it when it was closed beta - has changed soo much?
What about 1…2…3…4…X Starport guildes, anyways?

Has anyone found a BP fansite forum? I tried with a google search, but wasn’t able to find anything. Strange though, you can somehow add a fansite via the webform at the publisher’s homepage, but I can’t find any list of those.
Thing is, I am not sure if my PC is good enough for BP (I highly doubt it is) and I am not able to login to this #$%% official forums. I connected my account of the game with X, Y and A, but it doesn’t seem to work at all. Why they can’t use a simple forum registration process, gosh?
But ok, better let’s make it more complicated than it should be…
Even some links pointing to the official forums areas are not working, hell… -
seems they removed them - found the english unofficial fan site by google. The german one was better lately - but i guess either they were running out of money or gamingo has put their fingers in it.
Have you tried to look in the inet archive for it?
-
Have found prophecynation.net after a long google search.

Got an early Beta invite, but have never played it. GFX was below min spec
I need to upgrade my rig as since WIndows 7 is now installed my gfx doesn’t even have proper drivers (no ATI driver, only windows own, which doesn’t appear to have OpenGL support…or something).
So please let us know how it plays folks as it may be a thing that causes me to upgrade finally
If people club together and play, try capturing a bit and youtubing it

Jury is out for me due to the crashes i was experiencing for ages with BP that put me off it a bit. I’ve been testing this from last year sometime.

A little search on youtube brings you here: http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=black+prophecy+gameplay&aq=1

Honestly, youtube videos without persons observations about gameplay dynamics/mechanics is a rather limited perspective… X universe games are a great example - gorgeous, and honestly, love the game - but not like FL. True one or two vids have good commentary, looks promising, but that doesn’t negate one thing.
I can watch videos made by others, I can read opinions by total strangers. All these do not compare to hearing the opinions of people who share similar tastes to my own.
It’s that simple
I’d really rather hear/see FL players opinions

How are people getting on with this game then, I know it’s only a beta but does it seem like a game that you would spend a lot of time playing?
