That wasn't what they were saying over at the Mutant forum, and I defer to their knowledge (not having written one). <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't know what this "mutant forum" is, but having designed a RT, TB and and a system which functions in both, I can tell you a realtime system is more difficult. Easily. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, I'm not a member and I don't frequent it, and I read it a while ago (over a year), but I think it's one where developers (from Bio?) go. Anyway, IIRC, the gist of the reasoning was that Real-Time was a matter of setting off all the little procedures (according to their own rules and timings); Turn Based required additional synchronisation administration on top (to make sure each process only did one turn's worth of action each turn). What are your experiences?

I will be trying to make something ultra-deadly. If eight-legs are better, then that. Or four. And opposable thumbs. And a BIG BRAIN.

Thanks! You just want to see humans procedurally mating. " <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Instructional video ...

Yes it was. I bet you ten bucks that a year after the game comes out it'll be filled with copyrighted material from various shows, games and comic books. I can't wait to make Batman! EDIT: I wonder if you can make humans? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Manbat! EDIT: Of course you can create humans.

Turn-Based game structures are a LOT more complex to design. RTS is actually simpler to build.

That spider-thing that came after his tripod was pretty kewl.

Nazi zombies.

Hasn't stopped you trying it so far ...

Might be an added attribute: camouflage.

Sullying? What are you, a high-preist of Fallout? And do you OWN the Fallout IP? No. Just keep your head up your exhaust a bit longer and you won't see what Bethesda do with the franchise, GOOD OR BAD. Problem solved.

Flight of the Pheonix. Lord Richard Attenborough and Jimmy Stewart FTW.

Is he? I thought Van Helsing was the protagonist in the Dracula films ... Dracula was the bad guy. But you're right (and so is Baley) anti-heroes are just as valid.

And I couldn't give a toss if it is a good game.

CeBIT PC technology.

... And that they are in just as good a position

I wonder how much of the "junk" DNA in the genome is potential problem solving stuff. Like re-growing gills if needs be, for example. So the human is not just a bunch of nifty adaptations, but *all* the adaptations that have taken place on the journey homo sapiens sapiens have taken from the slime. So removing the junk (estimated at approx. 85% of it) might actually be a bad idea. Still, we might be able to sort it a bit: make it a bit more organised ...

There's CeBIT in a week or two, too.

Well, just don't play it then! It'll be like it was never made ... you'll not be worse off

With the mouse. How did you want to control the paddle?

What's not to understand? Warp Travel: possible? The physics of FTL travel

I won a hand. Not my fault that when I joined the side it was 150 behind; my record is still 100%. :D

Fun.

Oblivion isn't out yet, and Fallout is naught but a twinkle in their eye, and yet people are still convinced that they can't make it. Your arrogance is greater than anything you ascribe to Bethesday.

Because there is only one place the skeleton CAN be. Everything is utilitarian. Creatures walk a certain way because their skeleton moves that way. One of the great things I noticed about the game was the way it subsumed a lot of logic; like, for example, when looking for an inhabited solar system, he searches for radio signals. It's a great sandbox: the ultimate sandbox. :cool:
