Matt Firor has thrown up a Producer Note on some of the things they are working on now in DAoC. Here is a snip talking about upcoming new features:
I'd like to update you all on the list of items that Mark posted here on the Herald on December 7, and give you the status report. The good news is that we're going to have almost everything on that list up on Pendragon by the first week in January for testing. The bad news is that there are a couple of items that will not make it and they are:
- The water and lava texture and visual uprade. Basically, we're moving to a totally new engine at some point in 2002, and if we made any water/lava changes now, we'd have to do them again in the new engine. The time that it would take in order to truly improve the water and lava effects can be better used elsewhere for the game.
- We're not going to have the 50th level "Epic" quests done by the first week of January. The reason: we're revamping the 40th level quests to be, well, more "epic", which entails stretching them out over the entire course of levels 40-50, and culminating in one super 50th level quest. This is far cooler than having separate quests for 40 and 50. Now, they will all be bound together - which of course, is much more work. So, we have to move out the deadline on those.
I'll make another post during the week of the 7th describing the new stuff, how it will work, and update you on any changes to this list.
He also discusses macros, assasins, Hibernia's weakness and Midgard's strength. | | Source: Voodoo Extreme |
