There’s nothing to get exited about. We’re testing the backend – the registration webpage, the databases, the registration process, game download, and the C# launcher. The game itself is just an incomplete prototype with placeholder everything. We have the servers up and the game is playable (on higher end hardware), but the models are not optimized, the map is unfinished, and the game mechanics are stubs.
We’re gathered some feedback and have already fixed several issues with the launcher and know that the interface needs an overhaul. For one, we’re going to add a password reset mechanic and make the login process more linear.
Today, we’re cleaning up our in house models and reducing textures (in one case, 36 to 3). Next week we plan to tighten up the game and start working on bugs and fleshing out the various stubs.
