Wish list / Re: Mobile?
« on: December 08, 2007, 10:07:49 pm »For starters, I would like to say: Great work devs! PS promises to be a rival to even World of Warcraft, but without the cost! No exaggeration.
Onto what I would like to see: I spend many hours everyday on a pocket pc, running windows mobile. If is possible, I would like to see PS go mobile. I'll even help out, if need be.
Thanks, and keep up the great work!
While I can not debate the fact that mobile platforms are on the rise and are ushering more and more casual gamers into the market, developing for the mobile platform has different specifications then the PC.
With the current leaps and bounds with technology it is not entirely unthinkable that these mobile platforms will be able to handle PlaneShift, I don't foresee the Dev team focusing on the mobile platforms. The main problem with focusing on the mobile universe is that with the game being so early in development it would require a whole team to scale the client for a mobile device. The graphics engine would need to be adjusted to scale to smaller resolutions, new GUIs would need to be implemented, not to mention the internet service that would be required for such high packet activity.
I wont say its impossible for this to happen, but I don't think the dev team will put too much effort into making this come to life.
