Eclipse Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 Interesting articles. It will be interesting to see how the changes affect the game.

Supreme Cmdr Posted September 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 quote:Originally posted by Supreme Cmdr: Something completely UNACCEPTABLE has happened. Please read GNN. I have been advised that it was Dreamcatcher media folks who edited the interview before it went out to GameSpot. In fact, the only reason the Homelan interview wasn't censored, was because it went directly through me because Homelan sent the questions directly and did not go through Dreamcatcher. So, I had to talk John at Homelan into not running his interview until after the GameSpot one ran because of the promise (that they would get first dibs to anything I had to say) that Dreamcatcher media had made to GameSpot . Without telling me about it of course. Silly publishers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllenKG2001 Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 It's all sounding great Derek. The changes seem like good call. Looking forward even more so to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quantum Posted September 24, 2003 Report Share Posted September 24, 2003 The changes do look interesting, and I think that they (changes) may be good for the game. They seem to be tweaks here and there for a more pronounced focus on immediacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenKG2001 Posted September 25, 2003 Report Share Posted September 25, 2003 Just a few questions Derek about the new advanced AI. We all know the game is not FP shoot-em-up orientated but how does the new AI fair up when conducting a ground assault? Do enermy marines and tanks (etc..) provide a better challenge when under attack? Also, how well in your opinion do friendly assets respond and carry out orders in regards to an assault? Are you pleased with the new AI and does it meet with your expectations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Lindsey Posted September 26, 2003 Report Share Posted September 26, 2003 Singe in English is to burn or crisp. If you stand to close to a fire you can singe your hair. The grill was too hot and I singed the chicken. So the play on words is that Derek is going to singe (burn or crisp) competing games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
