  1. Blog 13 - A Fun Game

    in Tiberian Sun: Reborn

    Posted · Edited by Xyrom

    Where are the testers? I want them to testify about the state of the game: is it balanced, stable, and FUN enough for a public debut? It would suck to have another APB Gamma where huge amounts of people play for the first few weeks and then gradually leave because the game isn't enjoyable enough. On the upside, you guys don't have an established player base which expects a certain style of gameplay for Reborn unlike with Gamma so you don't have to worry about people leaving because you've changed it too much.

     

    How is the gameplay anyways? Is it unique compared to APB? Does it feel right for a Tiberian Sun based FPS?

     

    Will the server and modding packages be ready right off the bat? Since there is only one official server even if you guys managed to stir up major hype for the release many people might not be able to play it. I remember during the release of Gamma the main server was full most of the time and sometimes the second was as well. How does the in-launcher server tracker work anyway? I've never seen any unofficial servers listed so I'm assuming it only lists servers that BHP deems proper for inclusion, but couldn't you have it list ALL the servers people are running so that there will always be enough room for players? (If it already does this and people simply aren't running servers than ignore that part). Barring that, can’t you at least get several major partners on board to run servers for the game? Maybe contact EA_CIRE to officially announce it on the Command and Conquer forums? Allow people to get it from Origin? (That last one is kind of terrible, though – but it might allow the game to reach a greater audience than those that know about ModDB). Also mod tools would be nice to allow the community to develop its own maps, etc. though modding isn’t as prevalent these days because of the shift to console gaming.

     

    Here's a tester and yes it's close to being ready to being released, is fun, and like said before the things that need worked on are getting worked on.

     

    There's a definite difference in game play but you have to remember that all these use the same engine so you'll obviously see some similarities that will stick.

     

    And about servers I believe there's a server list that the server has to get added to to be on the launcher's server list.

  4. RA2:AR FAQ

    in Red Alert 2: Apocalypse Rising

    Posted

    i have a thought about yuri maybe you could switch between yuri and the mind controlled then the controlled unit would be more useful than just a bot. if you could switch you could still manage yuri to keep him out of trouble but still make good use of the unit captured.

     

    though it could just be a pain to do....
