Frontier 1859 Project Update |
|
Just as the web - virtual worlds are a new medium. They can be used in
radically different ways - entertainment, business collaboration,
socializing, simulation, etc.,. Player authored content is big.
Therefore, Frontier 1859 proposes a new dynamic world where the
participation of player-characters may affect and change the virtual
world around them. Families may work together to build and run frontier
Tribes and Towns. They will face the typical challenges of living in
the wilderness, learning basic survival, and progressing into the
social, entrepreneurial, political and military challenges the Emigrant
Settlers and Native Americans were facing.Â
When we test-polled our community in the "Funded by Gamers for Gamers" thread on our forums, 82% of community voters opted for a $25.00 "Boomtown Membership" as opposed to the $10.00 "Concord Coach Membership" or the $5.00 "Trail Buster Membership." Our community now reaches out Internationally. Even though Frontier 1859 is not yet funded, the project continues to garner new registered members, and receives some of the best feedback in the business. The next phase is to secure production financing, ramp up to full production staffing, and deliver the online world experience through the PC and other broadband-enabled devices.
