Leaked Project Copernicus trailer gives a look at shelved Amalur MMO

Εικόνα

“The logo at the end was based upon the ouroboros, an ancient symbol of the cyclical nature of the universe. This symbol has great significance to the story of Amalur, a world trapped in an unending cycle of creation and destruction. And yes, we had this symbol before the Elder Scrolls Online announced using a similar logo (that’s what you get for basing your IP on classic themes),” Danuser added.

“The illustrated style showcased in the teaser was something you would have seen throughout the game. Our cinematics team was packed with amazing illustrators, and we were using animation like this to introduce our races and tell little bits of history you’d encounter as you traveled through Amalur.”

Starbreeze boss “never going to do free-to-play”

Εικόνα

“We’re never going to do free-to-play, because then you have to cater to everyone out there – that’s costly and it’s hard,” he said.

“We’re probably going to go down the road of cheap to play. Would we go all out? No, I don’t think I’m going to bet on just one business model.”

Nermark noted that Starbreeze won’t abandon either work-for-hire or triple-A development while it experiments with other projects.

“We’re going to keep that and do the smaller, downloadable self-funded stuff like P13 and Payday 2 and we’re going to dabble in other areas too. Multiple different business models, multiple different games. To rely on one business model is very risky,” he said.

The executive is pretty confident about the upcoming P13, although he wouldn’t say what it is.

“People are going to be very surprised that Starbreeze is doing this game. I think we’re bringing something unique and new to the table in terms of gaming. That’s how cocky I’m going to be,” he said.

“As far as updates to the current version of FFXIV go, this 1.23 series of patches will be the last,” the producer noted in his latest letter to the community.

“There are no more large-scale additions or adjustments planned, and all of your feedback will be applied to 2.0 – along with the combined efforts of the entire dev team.”

“We released some in-game screenshots at E3, but the graphics are still undergoing adjustments – expect to see higher quality at release,” he added.

“We’re working on dusk/night lighting and post processing as we speak. They won’t be ready for a little while yet, but we’re also working on getting out some screenshots for the PS3.”

Ouya Android console Kickstarter surpasses $3 million
The Ouya Kickstarter has now hit $3,076,320 with 28 days left. According to the console’s designer, Yves Behar, the system will provide owners with free and low-cost Android games and it’s high time the console market was hook up a little.

Εικόνα

“The gaming community [...] wants to be engaged, wants something new, wants it to be open. There’s lots of programmers, hackers, [and] game developers that don’t want to pay the huge fees that it takes to get a developer kit [for a major console].

“There’s just not a lot of attention, of love and care and attention, on the [Andorid] platform. But that’s changing. We need to refine and detail things to be true to what their use and intention is, while building personality, while building brands. That’s the really exciting challenge when it comes to UI/UX for us.”

Ouya is slated for release in March 2013.

Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs slips to 2013
Speaking in an interview with GameZone, Dan Pinchbeck, creative director of developer thechineseroom, said that the horror sequel Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs has slipped from its intended Halloween 2012 release date into 2013.

“The quality of the game is the absolute first, last, and always with this development, and we felt it could do with a few more months’ work to make sure that’s really going to happen,” said Pinchbeck.

OnLive to be built into second-gen Google TV sets
A deal between OnLive and chip manufacturer Marvell will see second-generation Google TV devices capable of streaming games out-of-the-box.

Εικόνα

Game streaming service OnLive has signed a deal with Marvell to enable devices that run on the manufacturer’s ARMADA 1500 chipset to access the OnLive service.

Marvell manufactures the ARMADA 1500 chipset for smart TVs and set-top-boxes, including Google’s second-generation TVs, and while OnLive’s deal is not directly with Google it means the internet giant’s TV devices will be capable of streaming games via the OnLive service.

“OnLive’s focus is to make the highest quality gaming accessible to everyone, anywhere and anytime they want it. With Marvell under the hood, we are able to deliver the highest-quality, on-demand gaming experience on groundbreaking devices and systems like Google TV,” said Steve Perlman, OnLive Founder and CEO.

Game streaming is slowly becoming more popular, with Sony recently buying OnLive competitor Gaikai for $380 million. Elsewhere, Valve recently stated that streaming is not part of its short term plans.

Rockstar on Red Dead Redemption 2: "stay tuned"
Grand Theft Auto 5 and Max Payne 3 are Rockstar's focal points for the near-future, but the studio hasn't forgotten about Western sandboxer Red Dead Redemption - or for that matter swanky detect 'em up L.A. Noire and Just-William-meets-Hollyoaks escapade Bully.
"Awesome, we love Red Dead too," gushes a Q&A on Rockstar Newswire, "and are thrilled that so many of you loved John Marston's tale and are excited for more epic Western action.

Click to view larger image
"As we mentioned in our last set of Asked & Answereds to similar questions about the future of other game franchises like Bully and L.A. Noire, we don't always rush to make sequels but that does not mean that we won't get to them eventually. Stay tuned for further announcements about the future of the Red Dead series."

Of L.A. Noire sequels, Rockstar had this to say in February: "there won't be any more DLC or additional content for the current release of L.A. Noire (we're all too busy working on Max Payne 3, GTAV and other games to come), don't count out the possibility of a new game in the L.A. Noire franchise in the future.

"We simply have not decided anything. We're all very pleased with how that game turned out and are considering what the future may hold for L.A. Noire as a series."

And Bully? Once again, never say never. "We absolutely love that over 5 years later, we're still seeing so much enthusiasm for Bully," notes a third post. "We really love Bully ourselves and may also make a sequel at some point."

Which would you rather play first - Red Dead Redemption 2, L.A. Noire 2 or Bully 2? I'm game for some more Bully, myself. In fact, I'm going to take this as my cue to invest in the Xbox 360 version.

Fortnite Is The First Unreal Engine 4 Game

Εικόνα

Epic pulled back the curtain today on Fortnite, its new sandbox-style game for PC. The company revealed it's the first title using Unreal Engine 4.

We got a chance to get a closer look at Fortnite's enemies during our Comic Con panel. The game's bread and butter enemy is called the husk. This zombie-like foe that tries to overwhelm players' structures with their numbers. Unfortunately, the Fortnite's enemies also work in conjunction with each other. Smashers are big brutes who smash through players' walls, and trolls are sneaky little buggers who can phaze through walls and will sneak through a fort, opening door for husks, and stealing players stuff.

In order to keep back these creative foes, players will have to master their building skills, collect better materials from the world, and keep upgrading their fortress. Players have a lot of options to tweak their structure, adding doors, arches, and sniper perches to their building. Epic's first Unreal 4 project should bring out the architect in all of us when it comes out for PC later next year.

Epic provided several new screenshots of the game, and even included a before and after that highlights the transition from Unreal Engine 3 to Unreal Engine 4.
