All Aspect Warfare Demo

[Jun 10, 2009, 2:18 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

A playable demo for All Aspect Warfare is now available, offering a sample of 3000AD's science-fiction combat game, and as noted in this All Aspect Warfare developer blog update, both All Aspect Warfare and Angle Of Attack (which turns out to be the A.A.W. aerial combat spin off mentioned a couple of months ago) will likely go gold this week. The update goes on to describe the complications involved in releasing both games following the collapse of their Xbox 360 publishing deal that leaves the retail release of A.A.W. in jeopardy and may delay the games, even via digital distribution, depending on preorders and other factors. There is also the possibility of an XBLA deal for Angle Of Attack that means there will be no demo for this aerial combat game . The 291 MB All Aspect Warfare demo is available on AtomicGamer, ComputerGames.ro, and Gamer's Hell.

I'm giving far far more of my business to DRM-free operations these days, but I do comprehend why most developers use some form of it, and I have to give some credit for the up-front approach taken on the AoA page I've just looked at. I appreciate that. The one AAW video I saw (mostly of ground troops) didn't inspire me, but I'm potentially interested in the aerial combat, and I like the idea of having the option to 'upgrade' from AoA to AAW.

I've had some fun with the beta. I'll give the demo a shot, too, while waiting for the full release. I know, I know.. 3000AD games always leave me a little frustrated, but they also have a great deal of fun in them if you have the patience to learn the interface & controls. Although I will freely admit I liked Full Spectrum Warrior and Ten Hammers (the sequel), plus I don't know a single 3rd world county, so what do I know.

He had released video clip's over the last few months, of which me and a few other posters pointed out that they may have been overly long and need to be edited - we where flobbed off. 20 min (slow paced, not diablo 3 type) videos are not the best way to sell a game like this in my opinion. Whats the story with the Xbox 360 publishing deal then?

And I'd make getting a good video clip of your game a top priority. Amen to that. Practically every gadget/gizmo/toy/doohickey I buy these days I won't touch with a barge pole unless I can check it out on Youtube first - although, obviously, first hand experience is always preferable, but only when I'm not feeling like a lazy sod.

its called "survival of the fittest", when failure to adapt leads to death

it happens quite a bit, ive seen firsthand a number of independent businesses go under because the owner had a "my way or the highway" outlook

its not always a flashy exit, either.. sometimes they just slowly wither and rot for years before finally evaporating entirely




Go forth, and kill!

There are several media clips on the game's website at http://www.allaspectwarfare.com but they don't tell you much of anything, given the massive scope of the game.

Hey...you're right. Didn't see those, scrolled down through some of those screenshots and gave up. Might want to move those around, I think people are more interested in video clips these days.

And I'd make getting a good video clip of your game a top priority. That really is key to getting people to take that step to download and try a demo. Might seem crazy but the time and energy is takes to download and install a demo just to see if the game is something I want to play is something I pass on plenty now. So many other games have great media clips that focus on certain aspects of their game so I get to go in knowing I want to play the game.

Plus, ours is a totally different kind of game from which you can't learn anything from screen shots. Thats why there is a demo.

...video clips would be nice. Saves time when you can just watch someone else play via a web browser or media player of some type. Can also view that gameplay from computer other than my home game PC.

And why the fuck does the phrase "all aspect warfare" appear in you tube clips of women undressing? Weird seaching for video clips and see people doing strip teases... This something new the kiddies do today. I'm going to Strip tease all aspect warfare? Seriously...wtf?

From the AAW site: "A critical planetside tactical strike mission gone horribly wrong.
Shot down. Stranded. Lost. Left for dead."

I wonder what game Derek has been playing recently

While I'm a big fan of L4D, our game's premise - and that tag line - pre-date L4D. Look it up and see for yourself.

This game is pure shit. I don't even want to think about loading it on my computer again it sucked so hard. Please, DS, go into a different profession or something. I wouldn't make 3rd world counties play this shit ffs.

doesnt look too exciting.. 100 sq miles of flat terrain, no vegetation? how does that lend itself to anything but vehicular air games? i thought this was supposed to have on-foot and ground/water shit

Good luck to 'em, really. I'm sure DS is checking this thread and waiting to jump in, but honestly if a game is good and gets good word of mouth people can find their way past graphical issues. My eyes bleed when I play Diablo 2, but it's worth it. Battleground Europe (WW2 Online) has amazing, detailed gameplay but the graphics are clearly dated. Doesn't keep it from succeeding an growing over the past 8 years though. People play because it's fun. I'll try and take a look at it this weekend...

Hmm, will download this and see what it looks like now. The beta that was offered through fileplanet was...rough...I'll mess with the demo before I go into more detail...
