MCA is the lead designer on OEI's unannounced Unreal 3 project

I am currently lead designer of our (currently unannounced) Unreal 3 project.

 

Project Georgia or a brand-new project?

Edited by funcroc

Probably a brand new project, since he was just recently moved as a position as a Creative Lead from Aliens RPG.

 

To be honest though, I'm pretty much lost of keeping track with Obsidian's project.

I guess it's Georgia, but I can't help hoping it would be some new game :)

How can it be a no ob build. It has PROVEN effective. I dare you to show your builds and I will tear you apart in an arugment about how these builds will won them.

Maybe it is the CIA/FBI/NSA-rpg that there were rumors about?

 

But of course, i clearly remember MCA stating that if he ever did another KotOR game, he would ditch the Odyssey-engine and specifically pick the Unreal Engine 3.0 instead. Feargus stated the same as well, when talking about future KotOR games.

LucaArt's In-House Ronin engine for "Star Wars: The Force Unleashed" may be an alternative for a KOTOR3 game and probably cheaper to license too.

I remember someone saying somewhere MCA was very happy with his new job/whatever and we know he has been dying (wel, that's exaggaration but anyway) to finish his storyline for KotOR :)

 

It is either PG or Kotor 3 (I hope for latter but doubt it)

I hope it's KOTOR 3, but even most other single player CRPGs from OE would excite me. Hopefully, it is not a CIA game, as I like fantasy and Sci-Fi games, but games that are set in present times usually do not appeal to me (with the possible exception of strategy games).

There, now we got that out of the way, we can continue this discussion.

Probably Project Georgia. Look at the profile of Raymond Holmes, the former lead designer on PG. Developer mark disappeared.

Aye, so it seems

I think Brian Mitsoda is lead designer for Georgia or was it lead creative/dialogue designer...?

Well, yes, if it wasn't for the fact OE has claimed to go "Three titles route" meaning if they had new project it would've been their fourth. And as funcroc put, Raymond Holmes doesn't have tag anymore.

 

Logical conclusion is that Avellone is for Lead Designer was PG

Can't the Devs stay put around for one complete game cycle at least? :\

 

It kinds of feel sucky to see Devs posting here around somewhat regularly(?) only to go PONG! on us before they can start showing off the secret project of theirs.

What are the other three then? Aliens, PG and? Or do you mean the rumored NWN2 expansion? Why can't MCA be the lead on that one? Maybe he is happy because he got to do a campaign that takes place in the planes or something like that?

Because the NWN2 expansion isn't using the Unreal engine?

"Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

I'd say NWN2 expansion is unofficial fact. Best example are certain posts at Codex by Obsidian employees and Atari's whatever report thingy ;)

 

Besides, NWN2 doesn't use UE3 engine. Neither does Aliens game. However, it is confirmed that Project Georgia DOES use UE3 engine making it even more likely that he is lead on PG

 

edit: hey, Sawyer is here. Could you tell us something if we ask nicely? Pleeeaaase :*

Mitosda is the creative lead on Project Georgia. Avellone is the lead designer.

Ha! Confirmation ;)

 

Can you tell us when we might get some actual info on the game?

In the next couple of months, I believe.

I am aware of the report by Atari and agree that the second NWN 2 expansion is (thankfully) very likely, but can you point me to those designer posts you mention? Thanks!

Huge thanks J.E for letting us know ;)

 

I guess some of us might've actually be worried that this game would've had PNJ's fate so it's great to finally have some info out

Ugh, you better ask from Starwars, I honestly can't remember the topic since I only occasionally lurk there :p

It's Anthonys post on the first page of this thread: http://rpgcodex.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=22703

 

It could be trickery as well, one could interpret the post both ways really. But since Atari has that in their sheet thingie, then I'm choosing to believe it.

 

If it is in the works, I really wonder who the main guy on it will be. I thought George Ziets did a marvellous job on Mask of the Betrayer.

 

EDIT: Hah, looks like I'm the official Codex -> Obsidian boards spokesperson. ;)
