Today WAR on WarCry has added a new skin to their site. Mattlow of WarCry had the following to say on the subject.
I can't believe its finally here! I have begged, and pleaded with them for so long now. I can't begin to tell you how many bribes, threats and flat out crying I have done in the last few months to get this done. [sobs] I'm just so happy!
Seriously though, our thanks to our great staff at WarCry for getting this done.

Today we debut Fallen Earth on WarCry with a brand new interview. Recently, Fallen Earth Lead Designer Lee Hammock took time to answer some questions from our own Max Taha about the Icarus Studios developed post-apocalyptic MMORPG.
WarCry: Which features will be available for clans/guilds? Which Role Play features will be available? (Apartments, Clan HQs, Emotes)
Lee Hammock: Clans will have much of the standard functionality you can expect from an MMO, such as guild chat, rankings, etc. Many of the specifics of the guild management system are still being finalized, so we don't want to go into a features list.
We plan to have player-built housing and towns, but it will not be something players can access quite some time. Players have to collect the resources to build a settlement, and that can take some time. We also have a huge range of emotes, including the ability to set a mood such as Angry or Sad, changing your facial expression.
