Crimecraft Beta and Left 4 Dead Survival Update +SDK Just Released/Opened!

For those of you who dont't know Crimecraft is a massively multiplayer third person shoot that runs on the Unreal 3 engine. It is also free! The game looks well polished and the gang system seem interesting enough to take a peek at.

Also, about half an hour ago the Survival update for Left 4 Dead was released for the PC along with the SDK! (XBOX bastards got it first.... oh wait, I have an XBOX )... thats about it. Just thoguht I woudl let you know. (Probably three other threads about this by the time I finish typing)

I entered the beta for crimecraft!

Crimecraft isn't free anymore I believe. It's p2p

Yayyy, earlier today I wished I owned L4D on 360 just so I could try the pack earlier.

According to Vogster (the creator) they experimented with the thought of P2P but they realized that almost every good MMo does that so they made it free. They'll probably make money off of either in game ads or micro-transactions (they did also mention they weren't to keen on micro-trans but they didn't rule it out yet).

EDIT: Scratch that, that was from an old GamesRadar preview. http://www.crimecraft.com/team_blog/Frequently-Asked-Questions-8 They clearly state that each version will be "bundled with a significant period of gameplay time. After that players will have to pay a monthly fee"

Hopefully it's something like WOW (which I don't play). $15 seems reasonable enough to attract people while making money. Like I said before, there will probably be micro-trans too.

Ive signed up for the beta, well see what happens.

Unfortunately it's a closed Beta (unlike the battlefield heroes) so they will only choose 100 or 200 at the most I believe. If anyone gets in, let us know how it is!
