Well I am still going through the process of making my own game.
This isn't so easy, infact it's effin' hard so I take my hats off to anyone that likes to code.
Having said that I am still a gamer and I have been following Warhammer recently as it is the next big MMO release this year.
While I like AoC, it isn't going to hold a candle to the polish seen in Warhammer. Feel free to disagree at your leisure.
But that wans't what caught my eye, what did was something that caught me as odd. The lack of produral animation on the side of Chaos. By this I mean that I feel Mythic missed the boat by not going down the route of using procedural animation techniques ala spore to create a true mutations or gifts of Chaos to players.
Can you imagine having real random (yet not too random) mutations? an extra arm? a scorpian tail? your head in your chest? extra joints? more than 5 fingers? 2 heads!
Personally, if I want to create mutants in a game, I'd go for procedural animation over the handcrafted traditional style. While it is harder to implememnt and it can sometimes lack the polish only a good animator can give to a subject, it could really open up the possibilites and colour within games.
hey ho back to the grindstone.
Warhammer is better.
AoC will forwever be les than promised.
Warhammer has massive battles....I mean 100+ I know I was there. No lag to speak of (I had none).
Warhammer has no lack of content.
Warhammer has keeps that work.
Warhammer is a team game, Aoc is pretty much a solo experience.
Warhammer has meaningful pvp. i,e it affects you asa player and the game world.
AoC RIP, you were prettier than a thai whore and were just as riddled with bugs.
All I can tell you is that when I shout For the Emporer, For Sigmar! People join in the charge and banter, unlike AoC, even on non rp servers. I has a real tangible backstory beyond Howards books.
I heard Gary Glitter was out of Jail.
1. Gaute Gadger
2. Lack of clear game design .
3. Lack of funds.
no idea, I played last night on my own server found 3 people online around my level.
me thinks it is fury no?
What characteristics of an MMORPG do you look at most?
