WorstUsernameEver Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 But that would have 4e. How is that decent? They could do it the Cryptic way and kill the dice rolls! I mean those are so old-gen! Dammit, stupid developers are making me become as grumpy as a Codexian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purkake Posted September 11, 2010 Share Posted September 11, 2010 (edited) By "killing the dice rolls" I assume that they'll just use a more appropriate random number generator system. Rolling a D20 might be cool, but it's far from perfect, especially at higher levels. Not that I see how they would fit that into 4e Edited September 11, 2010 by Purkake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoth Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 New interview @Escapist Sounds all nice and well, but what this game really needs is a singleplayer OC. Perhaps Obsidian could sign up for that while Cryptic handles the multiplayer part. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purkake Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 It will end up better if they focus on one aspect instead of spreading their resources too thin. Too many games have been lackluster because of a tacked-on multiplayer or soulless campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgoth Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Anything wrong with the Cryptic engine? Doesn't matter who's engine they're using. The overall game quality matters. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, a failure doesn't have to stop them from making new IPs, unless they're content with just staying alive and being the mercenaries of WRPGs.

sorophx Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 if they're good at it, why not? it pays the bills, and as long as we're satisfied (I am), they're safe Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland. And having been educated solely by mkreku in this respect I am convinced that Finland essentially IS the wh40k universe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purkake Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Can you read? I said Obsidian could handle the singleplayer while Cryptic does it's own thing, mang. Having two different teams design different parts of the same game is like a double disaster. Just look at what happened to Bioshock 2. There's nothing stopping WotC from licensing out more games, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purkake Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 Basically you have twice as many points of failure. Not really a good idea. What's the fascination with Neverwinter anyway? Forgotten Realms is pretty big... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oner Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I know one bug in Crossroad Keep that's still in for example. If you reach a milestone while your units are on a special mission, the mission won't be completed, ever. Haven't noticed any others myself tho.

Volourn Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 "What's the fascination with Neverwinter anyway? Forgotten Realms is pretty big..." They're hoping the NWN name sells it ebcause of the success of the BIO/OBS series. It's why these punks have named dropped bascially every remotely successful developer of the past 2 decades. Anyways, this game is gonna suck. It's D&D in name only. Absolutely pathetic. 1000s of hit points. LMAO Taking the dice rolls out of the game. And,a whole bunch of other crap.
