Day-To-Day Work Logs and Woot! Engine Stuff!

I think it'll be some time before that, as right now they are (supposedly) still drawing the general theme on the game so any production lines posted now would be subject to change.

Pirated "The Settlers", either the first or the second one.

 

nope!

 

Not a dev, but I can pretty much guarantee that dynamic music will be in the game in some fashion, considering that it's been a staple of video games from about Banjo Kazooie onwards.

 

One of the Anno games? like Anno 1602?

I am super excited about this game. I love the management-freewill aspect of the characters and how this game is going to hopefully create some of the emergent world that really only DF does now.

My question is about your character; we are told that you are bureaucratic (don't remember the title) --will you actually be a character in a game or are you never actually seen? I myself have always thought DF would be way better if you were a character in the game like in Tropico, and you had to maintain power, stay safe, but could also rally the troops etc. I would think the same would be true of this game since it isn't so much a traditional strategy game but a game of politics and "people"

 

Still nope.
Also: Sorry for lengthy time for reply

 

pharaoh reference?

 

Somehow it manages to look like English and still make no sense. Why am I so fascinated by it?

 

We getting a blog post this week?

 

Funny to be sure, but kinda sad. I am glad you guys take turns though.
But does that mean you will do it next thursday, the next time available, or it will automatically jump to the next person and Nich gets out of it?

 

hey I liked the article. A really cool Idea; I've always loved playing civ. etc and happen to get lucky to get music that matches what is going on--actually building it into the game and using it to "compose" the music is a great idea.

I imagine that there will be several clips for each mood that is tracked? so maybe 6 ambient, six battling etc, and then as it determined what the next bit of music should be it just randomly chooses which sample (so if it chooses battling, it then chooses one battling clip randomly..or a random 20 second of the battling track..however it works).

Really cool.

 

10 nerd points for you sir!

 

I am out of the loop? What makes it infamous? I love the movement animation, but how often are there going to be life individual fish flopping around in CE?

 

The Elder Things want you to believe it's a fish. It flops for RVAQNNIDDX!
