Savage 2

Revive o' fallen thread.

Anyway, after almost two years since I posted this thread, and a year since I thought beta was going to start, the game is finally in the beta stage(beta started a while ago but I just got around to downloading it). Anyone else get in beta? I'll also keep you guys updated on how gameplay is.

 

Oooooooookay, so, after playing for roughly an hour, I can tell the game is still very, what the word, unstable? Graphics wise, it almost seems like something out of five years ago when people just started experimenting with pixel shader and bump mapping. Most of the textures are subpar and look bland. Gameplay wise, it's pretty much a blob of enemies from one side meets a blob of enemies from the other. First five minutes after I jumped in game, my commander, a S2(the developers) employee, tells me to, and I quote, "Stop fucking using ranged weapons, we need more melee and healers." And here I thought I was playing a self-proclaimed first in the RTSFPS hybrid genre, not World of Warcraft. At the speed they are going now, we might see a finished game by 2012, albeit not a good one.
