    wow NS2 would look like that if it was done on the unreal 3 engine <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile-fix.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile-fix.gif" />
    but you know most people wouldnt be able to play it + longer art times, cause look how stupidly detailed those things are!

    lol Huxley already is in a bad spot as it is, how are they going to make a MMO in the Unreal 3 engine..

    I remember at E3 last year it ran soo bad(on the best computers..) ..now they sold thier publishing rights to some chinese company. So Flayra i really think you have atleast a 7 months to a year before this actually goes gold.

    Can anyone predict how your FPS is going to be when 300 people are all near the Auction house in the Unreal 3 engine? ha enjoy your .3 fps


    Huxley got nothin on NS2

    April? This year? Tigersmith has a point, an mmo on the unreal 3 engine? How many people have a computer that can run that?

    I wonder what the netcode is like.

    Hi,

    Nice pic. Well; NS is not only graphics. I wish Ns is first Strategy and gameplay then graphics can be improved. A crap game can be beautiful but still is a crap game. Example : TES Oblivion wich is beautiful but with dumb adventures (feels empty).

    And finally; detailled graphics need heavy hardware...

    My pc manages to output 4fps in ns.....
    Just a thought, will ns2 be so fps dependent?

    I concur with gameplay being far more important than graphics. Hell audio is a hundred time more important than graphics! Yes a cool looking game is nice, but imho secondary, at least in my opinion.

    i don't see why anyone should be bothered by this. from the videos i saw, it is completely different. that picture sure looks ns-ish though.

    my fortune cookie predicts Huxley won't be a success, just because it seems like nobody would pay a monthly fee for it.

    they should do it guild wars style where you get your own instance for each fight; then maybe just have EVE-style text for all the stuff you do outside combat.

    to be honest im pessimistic when it comes to korean developers- asian stuff always seems to require leaps of faith to understand the story and mechanics of a game
