: My dear Ares,
: What the.....are you trying to do?
: Make us all insane? Going berserk over CotD like we all
: did over Myth2 with Bungie Soulblighter site sreenshot
: of the week tactics and such....?
: Well if that is the idea.....then I think you are doing a
: fine job.
Thank you! I am actually going to start implementing a pulic-beta system for many of the levels to reduce the load on the nation's asylums and sustain interest. But not until after this summer; I will be away for almost all of it starting day after tomorrow.
: As I remember correctly you project has been in the works
: for quite a while now.
: This could mean a number of things....first of all things
: are not really coming along...which would be no
: disgrace since you guys are all well meaning and
: probably very talented but obviously you lack the
: resources of a professional game developing company.
: It could also mean that although you are doing as planned
: the shape of CotD is of such a magnitude that it would
: even take Bungie a year to complete it.
Combination of both really... same level count as Myth2, but then we arent doing all the cutscenes and fancy models they did =)
: As we all remember Myth2 was not finished in a few months
: either and it seems that cotD could turn out to be all
: that Myth2 was .....or even more?
Well, I hope the scripting, plot and gameplay fun will rival Myth2's solo plot; but the number of innovations will definitely not be there. Think of it as an expansion pack perhaps.
: Which brings me to another point.When you are finished
: what will happen?
: Will CotD be a free download or will it become an
: expansion set to be sold n the market?
: Have you already any plans or resolves to this respect?
It will be free (unless some gaming company comes out of the blue and asks to market it - not likely!) but it will be too big to download. We're thinking of alternatives.
: Yours, admiringly...especially considering your age which
: is not even half of mine......Gandalf Gersen.....
C-ya Gandalf! Nice talking to you again after all these... what is it, months?
