Eclipse Phase open sandbox style game

Tired of trying to join games without enough space for every player?

Looking for a place to play that crazy concept most games lack system mechanics to accurately support?

Played to may 'human' characters in a sci fi setting that feel just like your own skin?

In need of somewhere to play in a game where you are never railroaded by the plot but does not suffer from the aimlessness of a 'free form' game?

Just plain interested by the slightly atypical style of this advertisement?


If any of these statements apply to you come take a look and ask some questions, bring some answers, and join in the fun.

Reply to this thread only if you feel your statement will help others who are considering joining, any questions asked about the game here will not be noticed.

Re: Eclipse Phase open sandbox style game

The game is still looking for several more players.  We are likely to start seeing some IC interaction pick up shortly as the first stage of characters are almost done being built but there is plenty of time yet for new arrivals to get up to speed.

Often labeled as a sandbox style game that title is inappropriately confining for the Eclipse Phase setting, rather think of the game as a desert and each character a diamond in the rough.

No concept is to strange, no plan to convoluted, no style to off the wall.  Character creation assistance is available for those less than fully familiar with the admittedly complex process who would like to try out a new high Sci-Fi setting.

The game is still just starting, the first wave of characters are created and getting ready to roll out the gate but there is plenty of space left to fill, goals to be completed, and concepts to explore.

Re: Eclipse Phase open sandbox style game

While the whole of the setting is still available for interaction of one sort or another the beginning points of the opening scenes have begone on Titan and Mars.

There is still plenty of time to join in on the sunward or rimward action but the character generation process can be a bit lengthy for new players so starting sooner will always help.

Re: Eclipse Phase open sandbox style game

Yet another bump because we all know only being near the top of the list will get a game detected.

The game still has plenty of room for both active and semi active players, if you are unfamiliar with the setting but interested please feel free to join in but do mention a need for some advice in your RTJ.

Stages of the game are starting to roll, but there is still plenty of empty space for additional participants.

In reply to Hendell (msg # 6):

I would love to join, if you would have me I will bring my persona to match the game. I love to RP in character, but I enjoy combat as much also.

I am available any time on any day other than Wednesday & Sunday Evenings, I have a high quality mic and am quite good with providing voices to match X). I am on PST in the Pacific Northwest

Even if you are full, please at least let me know, and best case keep me on standby until a slot opens XP, and have read up to the gm section of the world lore, as to avoid spoilers a gm would provide.

I would be happy to play as an Infomorph Muse/Ghostrider Module X), would prefer it actually, so even easier to join in XD

The game is and will remain open until such time as it's status is adjusted to indicate that it is no longer open for new players.  Please feel free to log in and send an RTJ.

Most if not all materials for Eclipse Phase are legally freely available online.


Note:  I do not currently participate in this game.

Re: Eclipse Phase open sandbox style game

Regardless of how one goes about acquiring the PDFs or hard copy books for the game there are a number of wiki pages that have a significant percentage of the data available for use.

Either way the game is still open to additional players.

The Eclipse Phase writers believe in open source, so they made the pdfs legally available for download.

The game is still open for new players, with a significant preference on those who will stick around and remain active.
