Alien Rage dev-team Q&A

[.misha.]

We have two or more game developers here so, let's ask them questions here!
It's a completely different team than the one behind Sniper, and even located in other city: Bydgoszcz.

Interview with Stephen Skelton - Alien Rage creative director:

When will we see the reviews? I hope we will see them before the release so I can pre-purchase the game. Thanks.

[Rzep]

Pre-release reviews are getting pretty rare, I think the best we can hope for is a review a few hours before the thing unlocks.

Also I wonder why they went with UE3 instead of CryEngine, which they used in Sniper 2. Unless I am wrong and that game was also UE3.

[.misha.]

UE3 fit much better into the genre. CryEngine works much better in open areas and rendering of vegetation, which will not find a on the surface of the asteroid :-)

[Rzep]

Makes sense.

Its kind of part of the meaning of pre - purchase, that you get the thing cheaper, but you are not absolutely shure, what it is all about in the details ....

This is a City Interactive's game so I am waiting reviews before pre-purchasing. That company makes not good games.

They're getting better though. They started with shovelware sold in Polish supermarkets.

So why do you care about this game at all? :-)

I like the Sniper Ghost Warrior Games, Dogfight 1942 and Project Freedom.
Of cause, you have to take the games as what they are. If you, for exapmle looking for a flight - sim, dogfight 1942 is disapointing, if you looking for a flight - game much more arcade, you will enjoy dogfight 1942 ....

Where you all are right, is the length of Sniper Ghost Warrior 2. That was very short, especially if you play it in easy - mode .
Together with the seberian strike - DLC it was worth the price .

I care because gameplay video is looking good and it is like Unreal 1 & 2. I love oldschool FPS games but as I said I need to see reviews first. If game can get 6 or 7 from the website I will gladly buy it.

when will this game be ready for preload in Australian Eastern Standard Time

[cryptochrist]

I preordered your game at greenmangaming for only 12€!
Then I read a review: http://www.entertainmentbuddha.com/alien-rage-review-frantic-fast-frustrating/
"Visuals are crisp and the game shows off some impressive physics – just don’t expect the game to run perfectly at a 1080p resolution. Upping the resolution from Alien Rage’s native 720p rendered it virtually unplayable. "
WTF???? I dont want to be a playtester again!!!!!

[Sabberschlonz]

You missed to copy the rest of the review ....

"That being said, Alien Rage is still not out to the public yet, so this resolution related bug should be worked out by the time the game hits shelves."

So lets look forward :-)

People doing speed runs really don't care about playing the game. I'm not understanding why you are posting them. Speed runs are not done on first time play throughs. So again... illogical.

[.misha.]

anyway, I would love to see Alien Rage speed run.
