Jesus, that's quite the disaster area isn't it? Trains, cars and ships sharing the same space...terribly unlucky really! I think you need to get some damage to the terrain under the train, as it looks like it was placed delicately on the ground just now. In fact I think the terrain in general could be improved a lot, as it currently looks very flat, featureless, and devoid of contrast. Lighting in the scene is rather weak too - you could use more defined shadows IMO.

I agree.. It also lacks the feeeel

I used to run dual screen - one 19" CRT and one 17" CRT - but these days I couldn't put up with the tiny amount of desk space that left me with. It was a handy thing to have, especially for coding I found, but I've gotten used to being without it again.

LCD is your friend. dualscreen is a must these days.

I think its nice how you made the background seem like a really old photo with bland colors, and the foreground more like a modern thing

I just talked to the former lead level designer of the current gen multiplayer part of SCDA, he is working at IO today. It was quite interesting to hear actually.Turns out that more than 600 people spread out over 4 studios worked on SCDA. The development was split up in a current gen part and a next gen part which were _totally_ seperate. Yep you heard right, no sharing of story, assets, code - anything.

For the next gen version the 360 was lead target and for the current gen version the ps 2 was. For the current gen version it gets even worse though, as the multiplayer component there did not even use the same engine as the sp component!

Sounds like a totally crazy project to me. Like how on earth do they expect a project with 600 people on the payroll to ever break even?!

If you'd take a headcount of the "cheap labour" IOI has working for them, I bet you'd reach the same number

haha

(sad thing is, phill is right)

I has to do with what you think is wrong and right.

Killing friendlies = wrong

Killing baddies = right

If you dont like killing at all, you shouldnt be in the army

I work with cranes like this, they become pretty gritty after the first two months (if even that long)

OMG HAI!~~

Consider it sent!

haha yeah definatly

Downloading now.. Looking at the image took a while (slow server?).

Im looking forward to the beta, hope for your sake that its more stable than the current version *shudders*.

Also, you might want to reconsider the map theme you got going there with pure large prop-filled-displacement areas.

Looks kinda post apocalyptic, and not WW2ish

And I love it, because of it

What if i live in europe, but have a bachelors degree (so i most likely could get into the US permanently), would you accept my application then?

Quote from e-freak

oO seems like good action but - wtf is the story about and why the f did they use bevel and emboss filters on all textes?

It's actually taken from a "true" story, believe it or not.

The whole thing is about Greece beeing under attack by the persians, and the whole of greece isnt united under one banner so they are pretty much fucked. Then the persians meet the spartans and theres this legendary battle where 300 spartans stand against a horde of persians. Their couragious death made the whole of greece unite and fight back the persians.

Something like that

Kabelen: very nice use of the white texture, i like it

Let us know how it went when you get back home
