Devastation Q&A

HomeLan Fed's Devastation Interview talks with Vic DeLeon, senior producer at Digitalo, about Devastation, which is the first we've heard about this Unreal engine powered first-person shooter since work on the project was revealed in May (story). Topics include the current status of development (as the game was originally said to be slated for a release this past Summer), the game's features, storyline, weapons, character models, and more. Included are seven new Devastation screenshots.

What was the Amen game about? never heard of it

Amen was an abitious fsp project from Cave Dog (makers of TA and TA:Kingdoms). The title was cancelled before Cavedog whent under. But their ambitions for that title (Amen) was similar to another title, namely Deus Ex (minus the rpg-elements).
Cave was ahead on that one. Shame that they didn't make it...

wheelie

I think they look good enough for me to buy the game when it comes out. after seeing how crappy CS Condition Zero looks, at least this game isn't using Half-Life engine, or even worse lithtech yechhh

besides you cant compare shots from games that are still not finished. its all good.

You guys are smoking, but those graphics look terrible. Worse than the original Unreal at this point. The head and feet of each character look like they're made up of 3-4 polygons at most.

They don't look all that bad. Maybe comparable to DNF. It's obvious they're not using the latest build of the Unreal 2 Unreal engine, but it still doesn't look bad for a high-action shooter.

"Typically, a strong storyline is one of those elements that simply cannot be portrayed in a high-action shooter for obvious reasons -players usually don't want it, nor do they care."

Nice.

Man those screenshots sure look very tastey! Is that one dude shooting to the side while running a different direction? Man thats Increadible! I guess thats part of the new "Blending System" you mentioned in yout interview, right?
I dont think I have seen this in any other games yet. Looks like that will add a lot of new movement/shoot methods for gibbing the baddies eh? hehe
Oh, the screens looked like, well, way better than Unreal standard grafix. Did you guys make your own rendering system for it? What other games are you going to be making after Devistation? What about the netcode? Is it alot better than UT's?
Ill check back and read your reply if you have time to post one, I cant wait to try this game. Is there going to be a demo version?

Thanks, and keep up the Great Work!

This reminds of what Amen would probably looked like if CaveDog had survived....Quite amazing graphics for the Unreal engine!
