About how long untill aircraft are officially implemented for us to play in? I love nothing more than driving in tanks but I can't wait to Kamikazi some fighters!
Most of the models are done, at this point it's largely coding. I think. God alone knows how long that's going to take, though.
2.0 took 1.5 years. That included developing a source mod from scratch. Core gameplay, building models, infantry models, gun models, maps, coding, scripting, balancing. Aircraft art is done. Thats all that was needed. I suspect aircraft, in beta form, will be out around my birthday.
I for one cant wait to get these bad boys in a new release. but i will wait as long as it takes. the longer they make us wait can only mean it will be better when it is released. BTW anyone got a link to some pics of these?
Where the fuck do you get your news from CNN? Coding is almost done (and has been for a very long time), Art isn't even remotely done, all BE aircraft are still in concept except for the Fighter, 1 NF aircraft isn't even modeled and 3 have to be skinned and none have low poly models so a final model can be made. On top of that none of the cockpits are done from what Megel has shown only 2 out of a total 5 have actually been modeled for NF and none for BE. I'd have my guess on 6 months at it's SOONEST.
so its gonna be 6 months taken to make the aircraft look good and implment them into the game? ouchie...
Do the devs have a Roadmap for the public to show what they might want do in the next versions ak 2.2. 2.3 2.4 ...
WELL THAT SUCKS :'( I don't know anything about modeling so I don't know how long it will take em to do all that stuff. But i hope its earlier
How long it takes to do that depends on the modelers skill. if he/she is a good modeler then it shouldn't take much time "a few days" the thing that usually takes the most time on getting a model ingame is the programming for it.
But also remember that people developing this mod are doing so in their spare time, so they have other work to do, like Megel right now is busy with IRL stuff, I heard something about a portfolio though... The Empires team is small...
Or you go and do the WoW syndrome.. ''Stay home and play''. But keep up the good work, it's very cool what you have managed to do.
So really, aircraft could be any update now? Thats great! I'm so excited to see how Aircraft handle and perform on full scale battles! Artillery would no longer be the dominant long range bombardment as they would be threatend heavily by bombers. So excited!
