Silverlode Interactive announces their subscription-free MMORTS SAGA is entering open beta
testing starting tomorrow:
The World’s First Collectible MMORTS entered Open Beta testing on Tuesday, February 26th, 2008. All players who sign up at www.playsaga.com will receive accounts, allowing them to create nations on the Beta servers. For the duration of the Beta test, all game features will be unlocked and available to testers. At release, a full unlocked copy of SAGA will cost $19.95; however, promotions will be available during the open beta period to purchase the full version of SAGA at a reduced price.
During the stress test conducted on Saturday, February 23rd, the servers performed excellently, with no crashes or other server issues. The SAGA servers are expected to support up to 20,000 players per realm with thousands of simultaneous users. Should a greater-than-expected number of players attempt to login to the world at the same time, a login queue will be implemented and additional realms will be brought online.
Go now to www.playsaga.com to check out SAGA Open Beta!

I will not be collecting this RTS.
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
Been playing this quite a bit as well. I thought the RTS/CCG thing was odd sounding too, but as I like RTS games and CCG's, I gave it a try. Have been pleasantly surprised and entertained for the past week. My only complaint is the RTS combat is a bit shallow at the moment, but judging from some of the developer feedback on the official forums it looks like plans are underway to add more strategy on the battlefield (height differences affecting range, cover & concealment, etc.).
Well I'm biased since I've been playing it, but it's actually pretty fun. It's made a lot of progression in the last few months as well. The multiplayer questing is my favorite part. It used to be pretty ugly but now it's pretty nice looking - not state of the art, but for an indie it's pretty good. Definitely something new. I think it's funny people cry out for innovation and when we get it this is the kind of response given. Anyhow, it's a free beta - doesn't hurt to try it out and see if its your cup of tea.
edit: should have noted that there's no monthly fee - so the collectible part is that you can buy troops to give you more options on the battlefield. The system makes sense when you try it.

Perhaps it's the first because that's the most bizarre/retarded idea for a game franchise ever? Collectible....MMO....RTS. It boggles the mind.
