- Battlefield 2
The
October Battlefield Newsletter is online (thanks Frans and
Voodoo Extreme),
featuring a Battlefield 2 Q&A: "Battlefield 2 has both heat seeking missiles
and laser designation devices. The Special Forces kit gets the laser
designator in Battlefield 2, which allows this soldier to "paint" an enemy
target with a laser beam. Once this is done, a pilot can fire laser guided
missiles into the target. It's very much a teamwork activity. Many vehicles
in Battlefield 2 fire heat seeking missiles which are basically fire and
forget – they home in on a heat source. Pilots can defeat these missiles by
dropping flares, which create a heat signature that can spoof missiles into
missing... until they run out of flares. :) "
- Brothers in Arms
The
Brothers in Arms Q&A on Computer And Video Games
chats with Stephen Palmer of Gearbox as well as their military and
historical director Colonel John Antal, about the upcoming World War II
shooter: "Also, We don't have friendly fire. We decided that because if you
started shooting your squad then they'd have to start shooting you and we're
then in the situation where they'd have to arrest you and have you in the
stockade awaiting court martial. It wasn't good for gameplay."
- The Bard's Tale
The
Bard's Tale Q&A on GameSpot talks with Brian Fargo about the return of
the bard: "I could not be happier with the final product we created. I'm
probably more pleased with this game than any I have worked on in my career.
The game is incredibly rich with charm and personality. I don't think I
could have made this game 10 years ago, since I didn't have enough
real-world experience under my belt to draw upon."
- Lineage II
The
Lineage II Chronicle 2 Q&A on Boomtown is an in-house conversation
NCsoft conducted with producer Aaron Rigby about their upcoming MMORPG
sequel.
