    Lol, bring on the voxel engine discussion.
     
  2. Nah no use arguing about it.
    Voxels are a legit approach, but those guys are just all talk.
    If they manage to find tech partners that release a game, good for them.

    Most gaming companies still build their own engines, an engine is so much more than just a "unique idea".
    Just look at how long it took that the havok engine is at least moderately used throughout the industry.

    Crytek at least released their own game to promote the engine...

    Yep. Best all voxel game will probably not beat best all poly/textures game within this decade. Anyway CE3 and others support voxels already, they are fine for stuff like procedural grass. Engines will more and more go hybrid using voxels whenever they can be handled.

  7. So, without that venture capital with the green cards attached, does Neverland becomes Neverlaunched?

    We received a reply on the article quoted earlier, as well as on the Planet Michael release:

     
  10. Taking some liberty with my quoting, but that pretty much sums it up for me.

    They are either clueless, incompetent, all the above, or something worse...

    I smell a rat.

    The Asterix game went open beta last week: https://www.asterix-friends.com

    Just saying. Not really sure how much of SEE is involved there. Publisher is obviously Deutsche Telekom and the game was created by an Austrian studio called Sproing.

    looks like fun. I loved reading the books as a kid

    EDIT: Looks like a browser version of a cross between Simpsons Tap Out on the Android and Warcraft 2.....

    Might be a different Asterix game. This doesn't strike me as an MMO (could be cause I only had a brief glance at it)
