For those who are wondering...

I decided to post this thread to answer some common questions:

Will DA2 be out Summer 2005 (June-August)
Yes.

Will DA2 offer Mac support?
Yes, I have had the launcher for quite a while. However, ZIP type installation will only be available at first.

DA2 - a fileplanet exclusive?
Not quite sure yet, it will all depend on certain factors we would like to cover.

DA2 - offers melee hits?
I included this question 'cause a couple of people asked me on email, yes it does include.

How about Vehicles?
Not in beta 1. Sorry.

More to come...Please note those will be added in our FAQ section soon.

if yuo read my tread you'll see that I'm kindoff bizzy with the maya fundamentals class of 3DBuzz. So I'll try to work on the vehicle but I'm quite bizzy though, the lower part of the tank is allmost completed.

Thanks Also some more good news is that we have managed to get our Control Point code working, so something that will have slipped till beta 2 will be in Beta 1 now, yet it wont be fully finished and due to the time only one small map (designed for no vehicles) will be in Beta 1 for it. So we have set the scene for Beta2 already

Also I will try and get a mapping guide together for Beta 1, so people can start making custom maps and understanding how the DA2 actors in UED work... By the time Beta 2 is around people should have a good idea of how DA2 runs, this will help making maps for Beta 2 easier

Great mod you guys got going and all, just one question . Approx. how big will the dload be on release?

 

[Dest]

Why should it be fileplanet exclusive ?
Wouldn'T it be better to reach more people ?

 

[Dest]

with fileplanet we can reach ALOT of people, we,ve noticed that with the trailer. Everyone can download it from fileplanet even if their no subscriber.
