Susan Kath announced as new Lead Designer for Tabula Rasa

PC News from N4G | Tabula Rasa

PC - Tabula Rasa - Susan Kath announced as new Lead Designer for Tabula Rasa

Tom Potter has stepped down to pursue another opportunity, and Susan Kath has stepped up to the plate to take on the role of Lead Designer in the epic SF MMO Tabula Rasa. Susan is more than qualified, having worn numerous different hats in her career with TR, and been with the project for four and a half years.

In her meaty introduction, Susan quickly switches from talking about herself (which she dismisses as 'boring') to talking about Tabula Rasa's future. There is no doom. There is only awesome. The coming content includes 'a new instanced map, in which players (with or without clans) can battle over control points in order to win exclusive rewards.' There are prototype mechs in development, and a tantalizing system of mech customization through a form of alternative advancement.

'No current plans to can Tabula Rasa' says dev

PC News from N4G | Tabula Rasa

PC - Tabula Rasa - 'No current plans to can Tabula Rasa' says dev

Massively: Last night, gamesindustry.biz broke a double rumor: that NCsoft Europe would be shedding staff (not closing altogether, as is being reported elsewhere) and that Tabula Rasa would be closing shortly. While we have received no official comment as yet on the alleged job losses, we are delighted to report that NCsoft staff member 'Ziggidy Zaggidy' has stated outright over on planettr.com that there are 'no current plans to can Tabula Rasa'.

We should also add here that contrary to the claim at gamesindustry.biz (repeated by us) that 'speculation that Tabula Rasa was to be discontinued wasn't addressed' last time similar rumors circulated, the NCsoft staff did actually state that the Austin studio changes would not affect Tabula Rasa. We apologise for not refuting the gamesindustry.biz claim sooner.

PC - Tabula Rasa - DNA To Be Digitized And Sent To The International Space Station (ISS) With Famed Game Designer Richard Garriott In October

Professional athletes, writers, musicians and entrepreneurs have nothing on Operation Immortality's latest DNA recipient: Stephen Colbert. The star of the hit Comedy Central show The Colbert Report will have his DNA digitized and sent to the International Space Station with Richard Garriott for the wildly-popular Tabula Rasa promotion Operation Immortality.

"I am thrilled to have my DNA shot into space, as this brings me one step closer to my life-long dream of being the baby at the end of 2001," said Colbert. Garriott comments on the decision to add Colbert to the growing list of popular celebrities joining the project, "Is there a better person for us to turn to for this high-level responsibility?"
