Introversion

*points at the pictures* DO WANT!! lol in all seriousness i know so many people who would love to use this in a game just pop in their own codes to make sci fi, medieval or steam punk cities. and than export them i would love that. i know several other people who would pay a pretty penny (i know i would) for this even if it was a game!

The game wasn't called red revolution like I said before it's actually called Republic: The Revolution. And coming more to mind and watching this vid: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/rep ... deo-review it really sounds like the engine of subversion right now could be perefectly made for this and also the gameplay , atleast I hope so.

It's weird that you mention reading that article about what turned out to be Republic, Cyan. I think I read that same article, or one very similar - it was probably 8-10 years ago in maybe a PC Zone magazine. It also had quite an affect on me at the time. Some of the key things they were boasting of being in the game at the time was of having thousands and thousands of people you could encounter and converse with all who would have a unique AI. Also that the graphics would allow you to zoom down to a level that you could even see, for example, the heads of screws screwing a drainpipe to a wall. Somehow that has remained with me also.

Also interestingly, I stumbled across this article just a few days ago where Chris and Mark were specifically asked about Republic having made similar claims to Subversion and Chris was completely aware of Republic and responds saying that it didn't employ the procedural generation tools that Subversion will.

Now an actual comment about Subversion: I'm really intrigued, to see what the player perspective will be in this game. If the world turns out to be really detailed, will you be playing the game in first or third person view since surely those are the only views from which you could appreciate that level of detail. That'd be very different from anything Introversion has done thus far. I'd otherwise'd assumed it would be a game mainly just played from a city overview perspective like the one given in the tech demos thus far.

I think Subversion is The Black Sun itself.

This is Introversion's shot across the bow of history. Soon, everyone will know the name of this simulation. It's the Matrix, it's a personality test. It'll be the largest, most detailed simulation of reality in existence.

If you've heard of the simulation argument, the one that posits that we are all most certainly living in some kind of computer. This is it.

We're about to answer the question, is the Matrix possible? This is something that will change billions of lives. It's like I'm sitting around waiting for the world to change.

It's why I've got to change my schedule for the spring and take an intro to programming class.

Oh, BTW

Could you please make them worship someone? The great Google, perhapse?

I couldn't agree more Thobal, we are like minded on this! BTW any news on peter molyneux new game, porject X? Or any other revolutionary games in development you might know?

.

It's mostly single player tho , but that would be cool yeah I guess

Also, what was the chronometer project?

Maybe his watch broke, and the project was to fix it.

That video was awesome, I like cites.

This project has come so far, and the videos are amazing!! Watching the city build and create itself is breathtaking and doing it smoothly with all those faces is extremely amazing.

Deus Ex: Subversion.

Yup, that’s how I’d like to see this game turn out… just don’t forget the air conditioning tunnels.

I am in awe. Coupled with the early shots of building floor generation, this game is going to be richly detailed, I can’t wait. If you need a pre-order, please, ask me for money.

I still have questions though
Considering Chris is aiming at procedural generation and parks… is there an intention to use tech like SpeedTree for the flora and fauna, or are you going to leave that to be an in-house generator?
At what stage could the generators be pre-seeded to? Would the game feature pre-generated (to a degree) city-scapes or would each player have something unique?

Considering what we've seen from Chris so far in *winia and Subversion, I highly doubt he's going to license a third-party proc-gen library.

It's surely some Syndicate-style industrial espionage game with elements of the planning part of the early Rainbow 6 titles?

Surely?

Hopefully its something with some strategic elements in it, and don't call me Shirley.

This is amazing the potential is huge. Great stuff keep it up, can't wait to hear more about it.
