Well there goes that.
Fury shutting down

Fail.
Just like every other game that people think will be a revolution.
Look at Age of Conan and all these other games that always come out but never seem to make it, this is their future that isn't so far away lol.
Yet here's Guild Wars, which I don't even play anymore, somehow that is still alive.. hmm. I'm honestly surprised that people can still possibly find Guild Wars fun. I could spend countless hours trying to find out how but I'd be left empty handed.
But it does prove that A-Net at least knows what they're doing, unlike tons of other noob companies. I mean there is some reason why they are still alive after all these years, it can't be denied.

Check out their forum,
There is a thread titled
"Hey, Fury developer taem, RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO YOU"

Are they at least releasing server software or something?
I have feeling that small-ish private servers with community ballances might work.
Edit:
I am not suprised thou. Furry lacked PvE, and GW showed that even basic and pvp-ballanced PvE can attract masses that keep game alive and well advertized (and provide stead supply of PvP converts and casual PvPers which is necesary to replace people that leave)
Plus i am sure that PvE would rock hard with Furry combat system and it also allowed tons of loot with impressive stats for those who like that kind of stuff.

Isn't this very old news? I remember Inde posting something like it, saying the development had stopped to begin with, because they were broke. I didn't know their servers were still running ;o
Brianna
Hmm now that you mention it I do think I remember something on it too.
Though this is the official closing of the game apparently, so everyone is acting all dooms-day like on the forums.
"F this F that! *Breaks things*" lol.

WTF is up with games and companies epic failing? I mean, Mythos is closing, Fury is closing, and ehm....some F2P game called Dark and Light has a law suit to deal with(idk if they'll shut the game off)...O.O GW will prevail!....until GW 2!
Avarre
Had a chance. Devs did everything they could to kill the game. GG.
around
Great idea and concept.
Shame the devs were even more incompetent than Izzy. TBH Cameron White makes Izzy look like a veritable god of balance.

Didn't JR go to Fury? What happened with that.
Arkantos
JR was the CR iirc, and I heard he did a good job.

I beta'd Fury, and I couldn't stand to play it for more than about 10 hours. Horrible GUI, graphics looked like Runescape if it was zoomed in to right behind the players back.

That's just me, but it's still -1!

When KARMA still existed we were invited into Fury Beta but we could tell it was going to suck and never went through with the beta. I hoped they would fix it and we'd join some time after release but they just wasted their chance IMHO.
Also I only stayed with GW so long because it was F2P also.

The Fury devs are the equivalent of ArenaNet if they never EVER did anything good.
It is basically like SUPER EVIL ArenaNet.

I'm not surprised. It was one of the worst releases ever and it never really improved.

what does starcraft, counterstrike, and guild wars have in common? excellent gameplay.
the games with the best gameplay are those that are easy to learn, difficult to master, and will reward you immensely the better you become. if a game can achieve this, it will almost never fail.

It was good in Beta and immediate release.
It took a whole 2 months for that to change.

Look at their patch notes, talk about crazy.

Thats pretty stink, I don't wish fail on any game.
Was hoping this would be one of the games that would help bridge the gap between GW staleness and GW2 release.
Glad I read game reviews before purchase.

Alex Weekes used to work on that game. He left just before it went fubar as I remember.
Abedeus
I played it during the betas, I was a bit confused because I could just follow people and buttonmash. Wasn't surprised when it became F2P instead of P2P, am not surprised it's closed.
