    Wasn't the licence picked up by some crappy generic mmo-engine/company?

    I love Firefly, and I'm a huge mmo addict, but I'm not sure I want to have "LF3M Niska run, PST!"

    an MMO based on the serenity universe (firefly) was licensed and sold almost 2+ years ago

    havent heard anything about development since then

    remember, there are over 124 active MMOs on the internets... you probably wont see them all

    Ah, it's being put out by some random company on a middleware MMO engine which means it will be anywhere for terrible to slightly below average.

    It seriously looks like hell. I mean the graphics equivalent of somewhere between quake 2 and half life.

    As sweet as this COULD be, we all know how it will be. Breaks my heart :(

    I was afraid it would turn out very badly... I really liked the show so i had a lot of hope this game would be at least passable. But I guess in the end I should have known a MMO based on a show that wasnt overly well known would not have had a large budget.

    Maybe we'll see a Battlestar Galactica MMO, and somewhere in the background there'll be a flyby of a familiar freighter.

    It'll be beautiful.

    Grinding Reavers for mob trash so you can upgrade your spaced out sister into a kick-ass assassin is going to be a chore.

    Hard Decision - Play a hot chick or a hot dude...or a robot replica of a hot chick / hot dude.

    You'd think 40,000 beautiful people would quickly turn that into 40,000 beautiful people and 20,000 beautiful babies pretty quick.

    A screen from the multiverse engine. Supposedly it's a tech demo for the network side, but still. Nothing really impressive.
