How does it work, exactly?
[QUOTE=StrawberryClock;48804549]How does it work, exactly?[/QUOTE] I'm not exactly sure, and it's something I'll be keeping a close eye on because I'm very curious precisely how it works as well. The way Wags describes it, he's very adamant that it's both neither a dot, nor just purely scaling up the model. He talks always describes it as "drawing an icon" over the model. The best I can think is that this means it's some kind of imposter sprite that gets drawn over as soon as the model reaches a certain pixel size on the screen. It's very obviously not just a dot, because you can often see silhouettes of the planes that are even colored correctly. If I didn't know any better I'd just say they're slightly scaling the models but like I said, Wags will swear up and down they're not doing that. I've also noticed that the icon can sometimes seem to show up abruptly, so I also wonder if there's a hard distance limit on when it'll stop/start drawing the icon.

It's a shitfest only when you want it to be. [editline]1st October 2015[/editline] It's actually a great way of learning how to make game assets but i don't suggest continuing to use it as a gamedev creative outlet after you master it, it's exceedingly limited and often has arbitrary quirks and rules. Like just yesterday (or the day before?) i learned how to make these fancy textures for a shirt i bought. [t]http://i.imgur.com/8b4vXsK.png[/t][t]http://i.imgur.com/A2KR5Ee.png[/t][t]http://i.imgur.com/2UaXjck.png[/t] For the longest time, emissive masks (textures that are varying degrees of fullbright in different spots) were a mystery to me but then i looked it up and made one in roughly 5 minutes. And the glittery version of that shirt has a bump map with [I]heavy heavy[/I] noise where the skeleton parts are, that was fun to make.

Oh wow that looks way better than when it was a UT3 Mod. [editline]2nd October 2015[/editline] Oh god, it's original price is £13.37
it's filthy cheap and it has more content than almost any triple A title out there I really hope it takes off because it's worth every penny, even in its current state i mean even standing on board a battleship as it's getting sieged both inside and out it feels more immense than any newer battlefield game just because everything around you starts shearing apart. kinetic barriers rip apart and the alarms start going off; everything around you literally just blows up and sends debris everywhere as enemies storm in and push their way to the bridge, disabling the warp drive, shields and guns while bombers and fighters tear the outer hull to swiss cheese. it's not battlefield style destruction but it certainly feels that way when alarms are blaring and you can hear the screaming of a torn hull as the whole ship depressurizes while smoke and fire plumes through the whole ship. you have to just evac and run to the ship bay and bail out in a fighter before the whole thing just splits apart like a big space titanic. that alone is worth the price tag
I just read a little about that game and holy shit I have literally had dreams of a game just like this sounds and looks. Buying immediately.
I feel like a large amount of people are going to initially be put off by the name, though.

Urgh, fucking Bad Reading, WHERE ARE YOU NOW!!???
Angels Fall First definitely looks and feels fun. It runs like raw ass however. Even turning everything to its lowest it was stuck at 13 FPS for some reason. Changing settings had no effect. I'm better than the recommended specs. Maybe it was just a one time, first run issue.
the bots are really unoptimized. single player always runs really badly, but online runs a lot better. problem is that a lot of servers are high latency because the bots are killing the host machines too
