Title: Anthem
Post by: Xant on March 02, 2019, 06:19:25 pm
Any Anthem fans? :)
LOL jk, Anthem blows and bioware is dead.
This is now a Star Citizen thread. Star Citizen is coming along nicely. Anthem took six years to make and it has no content, so it's only to be expected that SC's development takes time too. But they're really ambitious, and there's been some great progress in the past year. In two years it'll be in a full-time playable state is my guess. Already possible to have fun with it but they're still building the basic mechanics.

Re: Anthem's E3 "gameplay" demo:

What the public didn’t know was that even then, Anthem was still in pre-production. Progress had been so slow that the demo was mostly guesswork, team members say, which is why the Anthem that actually launched looks so drastically different than the demo the team showed at E3 2017. In the real game, you have to go through a mission selection menu and a loading screen before you can leave your base in Fort Tarsis; in the demo, it all happens seamlessly. The demo is full of dynamic environments, giant creatures, and mechanics that bear little resemblance to the final product, like getting to see new loot when you pick it up rather than having to wait until the end of a mission.
“After E3, that’s when it really felt like, ‘Okay, this is the game we’re making,’” said one Anthem developer. “But it still felt like it took a while to get the entire team up to speed. It was also kind of tricky because there were still a lot of question marks. The demo was not actually built properly—a lot of it was fake, like most E3 demos. There was a lot of stuff that was like, ‘Oh are we actually doing this? Do we have the tech for that, do we have the tools for that? To what end can you fly? How big should the world be?’”
Whole thing was basically a lie. Cant trust AAA developers in the slightest with what they show until the game is released.
