She's ready, just preordered. It's 10% off until the 25th.

(That's ~3$ off and Dr. Pepper 2 liters are 2 for 3$ at my 7-11, aww-yee.)

More etc then char creation. Watched 5 of the episodes so far. Pretty pumped.

Glad they took that extra month because there was a decent amount of buggy shit happening, though that could be some issues with the fan made mission. Even with those issues this looks amazing.

Yeah, some bugs are probably due to it being a fan project, some from it being an older build (I doubt they push out stuff to backers that often while also trying to finish up everything) so some amount of bugs should be squashed come Thursday. There will still be bugs of course, probably more than normal, just due to the compressed nature of development.

There are already a few quite ambitious fan projects under way, the one in the video included (http://www.shadowrunidentity.org/) so hopefully we'll get a lot of additional content to play with.

I just wish they had been able to squeeze some multiplayer in there. Totally looking forward to this though, I loved me some (not Microsoft) Shadowrun.

With dev tools I am sure some one will figure out a multiplayer. If this game is as awesome as it appears to be I will get back into campaign making, have some hilarious ideas for a campaign story already. If I get bored in a week then nope on to the next I guess.

Fuck multiplayer, I'm glad that this one lacks it. Why does every fucking game need to shoehorn that bullshit in these days?

Anyway, I'm in the same boat as Hatorade...if this grabs me I'll be creating terrible campaigns left and right.

Multiplayer could just be co-op too.. which would be refreshing in these types of games.

I hope someone makes a ReRolled themed campaign. Go heavy on the trannies please.

That tool that they have for making campaigns looks like something you could just pound shit out with once you made a few things.





(Unrelated: I see Eclipse next to Chrome, maybe source is Java, aww-yee)

I'm also a programmer (mainly in Java) and I'd be down to help with creating some content. Do they use a run of the mills scripting engine?

So this devkit looks pretty fucking incredible. Simple yet powerful. Asset creation might be hard to do though?

No, based on what has been said on the official forums, it's all events and triggers--pretty much exactly what you see in the videos.

As far as assets, they say you can add props that are based on 2D images, but things like meshes and textures are not possible [yet?] without someone doing third party modding outside of the editor itself.

That tool set looks good. I did extensive work with the NWN 1 toolset (some, but less with NWN 2) and the SR toolset looks easier to use than both of those. Very excited. Can't wait to make some of my home made campaigns.

I went ahead and pre-ordered off steam yesterday. I played the PnP version back in high school and i still remember our games and that's been over 20 years ago lol. Such a cool universe, so I'll support it!
