I've been dicking around the past couple days, this game definitely is trying the be the new SWG, which is good.

I'm in as Chest Rockwell, if any of you goobs are still playing before the wipe.

BTW, which somebody already mentioned, you can /buff [insert skill] to max it out and get an idea of what the game has to offer.

Edit: The reddit meme comics in the OP are really disheartening

Looks like I need to brush up on my vocabulary for this game. Skillets, fillets, and flounders? I get that these are currencies of some sort but what roles do each play? Skillets sound like your typical "give us your real money and we give you this cash shop currency which cannot be obtained in any other way" sort of thing, but what about the other two?

Joke's on you, you mistook a circle jerking shitpost for actual advice! Their payment model is F2P, with stuff like character slots, bank slots, ability to govern cities or create rogue nations unlockable if you buy a permanent silver/gold/platinum "membership". There's also a cash shop with cosmetic and convenience items.

Anybody know when the pvp server opens? I just want to steal noob's shirts.

I love how there was supposed to be a wipe on the 26th, and there hasn't been one yet because the devs didn't seem to take into account Thanksgiving weekend. This can only bode well for the future.

If you're really desperate to throw money at them or something, you can use the bump-up page and just set the number to $25

https://www.therepopulation.com/crowdfunding/projects/the-repopulation-pledge-upgrade/

People on Reddit and the main Repopulation forums have done it with success. There's not really much point right now until they wipe for the next phase, unless you feel looking at maxed skills or trying combat with starter weapons i guess.

I've been popping into the alpha periodically ever since it was launched for donators. I log in maybe three times a month but just haven't had time to play and bug test this one so much yet. Happy to see a few familiar faces from AA following this.

Looking at it the wrong way.
Hell, you can't even look at the maxed skills now. The wipe didn't happen on the 26th, but they did remove the /buff command that day and I don't know if it was brought back since. And so far nothing but silence on the actual wipe date now.

So far kind of regretting spending that $25 now, but then again the game hasn't really taken off yet, either.

I was able to use the /buff command literally 2 days ago, so it should still work.

Also, I found out the developer is located in Bloomington, Illinois. I didn't know Central Illinois even had any game developers.

I was looking for where they were based out of and could never find it. Perhaps they updated a page somewhere and did it. Are they still going on about how one of them assisted in the creation of Virtua Tennis?
