This is my main concern. While I'm already aware I'll be playing a WoW clone, I don't think their engine will be able to give us a steady framerate with a nice draw distance and crowded areas. I own Shadow Guardian but it is unplayable because of the framerate! I mean, imagine the main city' main plaza on launch day...
Just let em try, i appreciate every game that gameloft has made. Its safe to say blizzard will never port WoW or starcraft so i say enjoy what we get Anyone know the timespan of the announce and release of starfront? Trying to makeup a release date for myself
Hyped for the first time in a while. People should stop expecting an exact wow clone though. Willing to bet it won't have multiple hour raids built into it (not that I wouldn't mind) and hopefully it will be streamlined and optimised for iOS gaming. Want the options and depth to be there without it becoming too overcomplicated and messy. The UI gives me hope, have to say its the first good one I've seen Gameloft make in any of their games so far.
No. It will have raids and the other stuff like WoW. Not multiple hours, maybe, but raids and huge bossfights.
I look forward to the game. And I hope it will be successful and show other larger publishers create mmorpg's. One thing about MMORPGs though is that in order for them to be profitable and therefore give incentive to the developer to continually update and improve upon them they need to be subscription based. So without that I'm not sure how well this will be supported and updated. We will see though. Like I said I'm looking forward to it just to see if it works.
You know this? If it's true, ace. Hope it works. Hope there's full guild support too (have to try to get a TA one running again like previous MMOs)
I have to admit: I don't know for sure. But judging from the video, there are a feww short scenes in instances. And if you know Gameloft for a long time - show me one Gameloft game that hasn't exactly the game mechanics that the original game has. It's like a 100%forsure guess.
Anyone noticed when the 4 chars jump near the island, they are in a group (one has a crown-symbol) but it's an undead, orc, elf and human? Do you think the faction will be order vs chaos - not sorted by race, but "belief". ... yes I am speculating while waiting. RELEASE NAOW!
I'm seeing everybody kinda confused about this whole idea of this app being Universal. While I was putting 2 and 2 together (yes I did get 4), I came to the conclusion that it's universal to unify the playerbases of iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad, in order to simplify online play and give people more of an opportunity to play together with easier matchmaking due to more players.
Sounds conclusive, but I don't think so. Although the idea is cool! All fractions would have the same chances.
I thought I was out from the WoW (World of Warcraft for the not-friends of the game) dependency but with order & chaos coming nothing will be sure for the near future
another clone from gameloft but this time! they worked awesome! is there any detail about how many players will be exist on servers?!
