Stargate Worlds: Developer Interview

Posted by Wolfen in Stargate Worlds

The folks over at TenTonHammer have a good interview up with the folks at Cheyenne Mountain about the upcoming Stargate Worlds MMO. Here’s a quick excerpt about how combat works:

“The combat system is definitely unique among MMORPGs, and we definitely have a combat focus. We had to think of a different way to do combat, simply because we had characters with energy and projectile weapons running around. It wouldn’t be very likely, in our world at least, to have a character get hit over the head with a sword.

That said, we’re definitely not an FPS or a twitch-based game. The game is more along the lines of a typical MMORPG in that you’ll be clicking on your enemy, but the way the combat moves is going to be very unique. You enemies will use cover, and there’ll definitely be different techniques that you’ll need to employ to actually succeed in combat. How you manage your group and the targets you’ve acquired will be a big step in how our combat system works. “

It is a good interview, so go check it out and see what you think.
