Hellgate: London Xfire chat session transcript

The Xfire chat for MMORPG Hellgate: London took place yesterday as expected and the fine folks from Flagship Studios has been very accommodating. The game has been officially launched and despite some early problems, the overall feedback from the community has been positive.

A lot of questions were raised but some that caught our attention include the problems of players with Hellgate: London‘s seemingly limited environment. Flagship Studios CEO Bill Roper took the question and reminded everyone about the patch:

Believe it or not, there are more diverse areas in Hellgate: London than there were in Diablo II. Think about the second Act in D2. Sand. Lots of Sand. And a star chamber. And then some underground sand. We do a lot more to diversify our acts, and the patch that is available on day one (well, today) goes a long way to theming acts better so that you can get a better feel for that diversity.

When asked about the MMORPG’ss plans on guild systems, Flagship’s Senior Community Manager Kaiser Hwang explained that the guild system has already been introduced with Patch 0. The official added that while they have a lot of unique ideas of their own regarding the feature, they would want to hear what the community wants.

Aside from already mentioned, the chat covered a lot of all other things including game design, marketing efforts, future plans, and whatnot. To read the whole transcript of the chat session, click the Read link below.
