Tabula Rasa now free for all until its death

by Alexander Sliwinski { Dec 23rd 2008 at 8:05AM }

Terminal sci-fi MMORPG Tabula Rasa is free to play for all until its death on February 28, 2009. NCSoft had previously announced the game would be free-to-play beginning Jan. 10, but now new players can request a serial code from the support site and download the game via FTP. Former players can head to PlayNC.com and reactivate using their account management settings. Credit card numbers will be requested, but no money will change hands.

Here's your chance to get a free Christmas present and play the game before its servers get wiped clean.

NC's support has always been awful. I once got banned from Guild Wars because someone had been flaming me and called me then N word, so in private chat I told a friend about it (using the word).

I was then given a 72 hour ban for using racial slurs, which was investigated and appealed twice but they simply wouldn't listen to me about the situation, and the context of it.

Before that I had to juggle three different accounts just to report a bug in the game.

You have to email support for one. There is this whole little process to get one, that they talk about on the Massively website, in the same article about it closing down.

What's sad is Best Buy is *still* selling this game *and* selling game time-cards.

I believe the time cards are universal, in that they can be used for any of NCSoft's games.

Still upsetting that TR failed. It was an interesting concept but just not different enough, I guess. I hope that the server software gets leaked at some point-- that would be a nice goodwill gesture.
