[quote]STALKER Apocalypse is a new story driven first person shooter that's being made by our studio, West Games. Our team is made up of ex-S.T.A.L.K.E.R. developers and other talented team members. We were formerly developing a game called Areal, but after raising funds on our website and listening to our fans, we decided to re-focus our vision, and develop what is now STALKER Apocalypse (trademarked). STALKER Apocalypse features a unique story and plenty of familiar elements that will undoubtedly please our fans. There will be single player, multi player and split screen game modes. Stalker Apocalypse is being developed on Unreal Engine 4, and will be released on PC (Windows, Mac) and console (Xbox One, PS4) platforms. [/quote]

FAQs
[quote]Q. Do you have the rights to use the STALKER name?
A. We have registered a trademark for Stalker Apocalypse, and have every right to use it as our title. Stalker by itself is a common word, and anyone can use it. [/quote]

....wait a minute
...where have I seen this before
Why haven't I backed it yet? Same reason why I regret backing Areal.
Seriously? The Areal guys are still at it?
It'd be one thing if it actually looked [i]good.[/i] But so far, it seems like more entry-level Unreal stuff that tries to ride on the fame of STALKER and related titles. Boo.
Unless they manage to actually produce something with promise in it, I'm not going to even think about funding this. I suggest others do the same.
Great. The name is ruined.

Areal, the supposed spiritual successor to STALKER. It was on Kickstarter for awhile until people basically discovered it was a scam or somethin
I ain't touching this until I see a gameplay demo. There are plenty of people who can make nice looking concept art.

Because the whole thing looks like shit.

Here's some gameplay

To be frank I just want to see a well made ARMA 3 mod that is Stalker-like and allows me to complete Stalker-like missions in a Stalker-like world with friends.

[QUOTE=Grimhound;46697267]Why hasn't someone sued them?[/QUOTE]
Knowing Grigorovich, he probably sold the rights for the game to them

It could very well just be an updated Pseudo-dog from the original stalker series.
[QUOTE=Korova;46697258]It's Unreal Engine 4 now.[/QUOTE]
I'm talking about the prototype video. That's from Unity.

Before Lost Alpha got leaked, they were supposed to sell Lost Alpha through Steam and stuff. Shame that never happened. the IP is still extremely valuable as long as they own the IP and the assets.

Because this is the same team (and pretty much the exact same game) that had a horribly managed kickstarter, insulted people, used other peoples work and claimed it as their own, seemingly lied and mislead people to try to get money without showing anything that could suggests they can actually make a game themselves. They just use "oh some of us helped with S.T.A.L.K.E.R." and that their game is slightly similar (as in the same but not S.T.A.L.K.E.R.) to that to try to get funding, rather than actually deserving it.
There were so many problems last time they tried this, after what they did i don't think they should be funded. Half that concept art is even from Areal, so they've probably just changed the name of the game to try to get people to forget it all happened.

It's not S.T.A.L.K.E.R., it's STALKER. It's a very important distinction, because they almost definitely don't have any rights to the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. name. Even in the FAQ they have some bullshit excuse "it's stalker no periods hurrdurr"
Just went onto the Areal site
