New year, new screenshots?


Recommended Posts

Still nothing new graphically. Some great animations, but they make for uninteresting screenshots. You know, like a mortar team loading an invisible round into an invisible mortar, or a Javelin team firing an invisible missile at an invisible tank.x There is also the "block tank" that has opening hatches and what not, but really is a big 3D rectangle with a 3D square on top with a pipe for a gun. Great stuff, but not exactly graphically ready for prime time ;)

About showing stills of animations, i wouldn't mind at all seeing 'how the sausage gets made' for CMx2. Half the fun of those movie DVDs out there are the 'making of' mini-documentaries. I would be interested to see montage photos of a scrawny unshaven programmer hunched over a computer set up on a folding card table, duct tape covering a crack in the window as a Maine blizzard howls outside.

We're still shooting for Spring, but not the beginning of it. Never intended that. Hint... when a publisher says "summer" they mean August. When they say winter they mean March. If they say 2006 they mean December and not January. That's just the way it goes ;)

From a development standpoint things are going pretty much according to schedule. We always planned on the neato graphic stuff being put in last. It's the RIGHT way to do game development. Now, that's not how most publishers do things. Then again, most games suck. Connect the dots to find out why tongue.gif

I don't like the exclamation marks .

Are they hard coded ?

Oh and you better stop doing this Gpig. One of these days one of the less educated PC-Mags will have your pictures plastered all over the front page...

And besides it would mean that at least someone was “documenting” the process rather than actually working on getting the game out!

Stop this “mission creep” with requests for bones etc. and let the guys get on with it for #^%^$’s sake.

BTW: Only 6 days until Steve Jobs potentially moves the goal posts again for you!

I think those 'games in development' on BFC's main site only appear when there's a dedicated website up that's associated with each game. And before that happens they need at least some content for the site (a.k.a. pretty pictures). Two alpha screenshots do not a website make.
