Has anyone seen this?

Looks neat. Hope LiF has some of the physics.

The actual structure building looks more detailed than LiF though I prefer LiF's graphics. But yeah. Looks very alpha-ish. I'm guessing the reason you don't see the blue guy fight back is those kind of mechanics aren't in yet. Though you would think the blue guy might equip his castle with his own siege equipment that can fire back.

Anyway. It does seem like it has whole heaploads of potential. Worth keeping an eye on.

Edit: Checked out their forums. This seems more like Minecraft than a real MMO.

I've played Medival Engineers.

It's actually an awesome little gem they are working on over there.

It is by no means an MMO/RPG like LiF, but rather an engineering, terrain, and physics sandbox. Think Gmod crossed with Minecraft, with a pinch of Phun/Algodoo.

Compared with LiF, there is an extremely heavy focus on engineering your own creations, rather than simply throwing resources at preset objects and having them pop into existence.

For example, one of my own tinkering projects; a suspended-rail mine cart system with a 360* turntable at the end of the line. All of the components pictured (with exception to the suspension towers) were engineered and assembled by hand from individual timber sections.

Totally worth a buy if you have a beefy computer, and can deal with Early Access & the fact that survival mode and procedural terrain are not implemented.
