So, as many of you know, for the past 5 years a group of people have been working hard at a replacement for LEGO Universe, the said replacement being Darkflame Universe. This discussion topic is to talk about what you think about it and what you're looking forward to most in the new game.
Personally, I'm looking forward to it to revisit old memories. The nostalgia is incredible when I look at the pictures on their website. Also, I would like to hang out in Nimbus Station with my friends doing random stuff again, and also go slay a dragon or two. I'm very excited for this new game and I'd like to know what you all think of it as well!
I can't wait for it either! I am most excited just to play LU again! My favorite part of the game was building, but sadly I believe that might not come for a while:(. Still, can't wait to fight the Maelstrom again!
~l)~/\/~/-\~ The tie between real life and legos is imagination .
I am really excited about DLU as well, though I think that the last few weeks of no news have worked as a shower of cold water for me! :tounge: Back in the day of LU, I was mostly in Free-to-Play, so DLU will give me the chance to experience all I didn't back then. I'm really happy about that.
Meanwhile, if you didn't know, Icdr uploaded an Avant Gardens Gameplay Video for his and humanoid's server. It seems pretty good, though there's still things to work on.

Yea, I think that building was deffinately the coolest aspect of the game, with the ability to create anything you could imagine.

Personally I wish LEGO would just make a game that is JUST the properties from LU. You could build on them, share them, and play around on them. So pretty much LEGO Worlds with more bricks, multiplayer, and a better building system.

Yes, the main thing seeming to be that the Maelstrom don't attack until one of two things happen:
A: You walk right in front of them
B: You attack them
That is deffinately going to need to be fixed. But other than that it looked exactly like LU, so it looks promising. Oh well, we'll have to wait and see (and hope at the same time).

If you read the desc he says they haven't finished the AI yet.
I can't wait for Darflame either. I randomly heard about it one day on the LMBs, then I checked out the trailer, and it looked amazing! I just wonder when it will get into open Alpha/Beta.

Who knows? It really could be any time. They have the basic coding done so it should go a lot faster from here (mostly just specific NPCs and world creation).

I doubt Alpha will ever be open, but my guess is Beta will be eventually.

I didn't know this until today, but one of the lead developers has a youtube channel where he posts videos on DLU's progress. Two years ago he posted on on Ninjago and one on Nimbus Race Track, both were looking very promising (even though the former's color was messed up ), especially since they were done two years ago and must be near completion by now. I'd be very surprised if the Race Track wasn't done yet, it was nearly perfect those two years ago. The Ninjago video was done in two parts, actually. The first was the skeleton caves, the second was the monastery. The caves were only purple with some gray (really messed up), but the monastery was about right in color. I think Ninjago is probably done by now as well.
If those two are done, that also means Nimbus Station must also be done (in model at least) and they are simply either waiting for a good chance to release it or getting NPCs done. This is making me excited

True, but I wonder when that will be.
My guess is it'll be about a year before it's ready for closed beta (which I'm going to fight my hardest to get into (I got Twitter for that sole purpose )) and possibly another six months or more before open beta.
I'm Neal, co-founder of Darkflame Universe. I can toss some proof to mods/admins if they need it but figured I'd make an account here to connect more with these communities.
All videos up on my personal YouTube account are not DLU. (with the exception of the DLU Alpha trailer) I recorded walkthroughs of old worlds and mods I did using an old build of a different server.
That said, you can expect to hear more in the coming weeks. The quiet is simply due to this being an odd time; we're working to bring our next Alpha session up for our testers and we're preparing news/new features for our website to better serve our community.
Rest assured, we hear you all and we're excited to have you along for the journey!
