I've been negative lately about the gun game and had a chance to really sit down with the new build lately. I would like to take the time to identify the things that I have seen improvement on.
- Menu loading is much quicker. In the old builds it could take up to 10-15 seconds for menu in the UI to load. This is much better and feel comfortable navigating things like the market
- The graphics have improved tremendously, the lighting and environmental effects are coming along nicely. Durring one game, I could almost imagine I was actually fighting on a planet in a different universe somewhere.
- I have noticed the change in day time, night time, and ground textures (grass, rock, snow) and am impressed
- As above, I think I have noticed random things strewn across the battlefield in random locations each time. Big pieces of equipment and such, these things will eventually help with the empty feeling of the maps.
- Party system, just that it is there. It has a lot of bugs and problems right now but the feature and idea is nice.
- I like the new merc quarters. I imagine 2 seperate teams are working on warbarge & merc quarters things since its more closely related to carbon than it is unreal
- AV Grenades are super nice. I like how they can kill stationary LAVs but not fast moving ones it prevents gun emplacement style LAV camping.
- Voice works really well, channels are really clear and I like how you can talk to your squad/team even in loading screens (though I'm still debating the concept of paying to talk to my clan)
I'm not trying to kiss *** here but I think I should give credit where credit is due. There are tons of things that I believe CCP is aware of (especially after that joystiq article) so I'm not going to hark on those. When I noticed these things, I started to feel better about the games development and potential for success. |

That's the one! Galaxy, not universe. Dust takes place in our universe but in a different Galaxy via a worm hole that has since closed up. You make me sad. |
