alanschu Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I haven't read much about it, just that shadows have been removed. When you put it like that, it sounds so much worse than it actually is.

metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 No shadows? No horsies? :'( OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
alanschu Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Lies and innuendo, right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The reduced some shadows for some things. They didn't remove shadows entirely from the game.
metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Do the horsies have shadows? OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Gabrielle Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Do the horsies have shadows? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Are they big horses?
Moose Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 There should be banthas in it There are none that are right, only strong of opinion. There are none that are wrong, only ignorant of facts
Gabrielle Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 AHA! beat ya'll to the punch!... finally, a new game to play. http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/693/693106p1.html taks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That is so cool.
metadigital Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 And does soil erosion affect the growth of in-game crops? OBSCVRVM PER OBSCVRIVS ET IGNOTVM PER IGNOTIVS OPVS ARTIFICEM PROBAT
Tigranes Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 On shadows, there are talks that it is rather simplified - mainly, that enemies either see you, or... don't. Although that might simply mean that unlike thief you don't have critters stopping to look around, and yell out random statements that specify their current level of suspicion a la Thief. That would probably have been too much to expect anyway, the only thing that really matters is if the range of vision / shadows / aural hints depending on armour/surface/etc are done properly. And since I march into this game expectant of style-retardant dialogue, I might come out happy.

karka Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) If you play classical music for crops, they grow even faster while casting shadows. Edited March 3, 2006 by karka
Gabrielle Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 And does soil erosion affect the growth of in-game crops? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Depends if they have been altered or not at the cellular level.
ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 I'm looking forward to what people have to say about this one. I have to agree with Volourn. Bioware is pretty much dead now. Deals like this kills development studios. 478327[/snapback]

ShadowPaladin V1.0 Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 (edited) Why?! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Because it's not just a game. It's an indicator for FO3 And what I saw of it pre 360 release was er... not good (being diplomatic) but since they have had another 3-4 months who knows.
