Nice little halo smiley in the quote...

the trailer for this was very impresive and it looks to have some new ideas so I was looking forward to it

glaeken · 5th Dec 2006, 17:28

Hmmm.... the plot suspiciously reminds me of the movie In the Mouth of Madness. But nonetheless, it still looks like a pretty interesting game - with a stunning landscape and sky.

2008, does this mean it could be a DX-11 game?.... :P

This game is still too early in development to have any expectations on a release. Add in the fact that it's fairly ambitious, and I could easily see "another delay" to q4 2008.

I'd rather have it "good" than "fast", but having both never hurts either

never even heard about it.... looks good tho

FooSai · 5th Dec 2006, 19:52

Look at it this way....
Now we have time to for bugs to be worked out of vista, and more choice in DX10 graphics cards to be out and about, multi core prices to drop even more (entry level quad core

)

This game isn't being made to run on a core2duo e6600 and 7900 SLI config, you'd probably be dissapointed if you ran it on that (and that is still better than what i have now). This will give us all time to upgrade to something with the umpff (that's a technical term) that this game will need for the settings to be knocked up above low.

I'm really happy with all the recent progress O:-)

Just another rumour on the loose (AGAIN), that's all...

The screenshots on their site look good, but they don't look very realistic. I assume they are going to fiddle around with it a bit before releasing in 2008.

I love the silly name

Like i say about all games, if they are worth waiting for so that they are not buggy or short I don't mind. I have wow and DoD source to keep me happy in the meantime.

Narvi · 6th Dec 2006, 12:18

Actually, now that I think about it, the reason I thought the screens looked bad was because I was associating it with bad CGI movies. So, in reality, the screens look awesome. Amazing.

LazyGee · 6th Dec 2006, 18:39

Oh no :-( I was really looking forward to it... I kind of expected to see it in early 2007!

What am I going to feed to my 8800GTX? (suggestions welcome ;-)
