Interview with Luca - PlaneShift's top guy

[Kiva]

New news on the PS site (lazy people click here)

Short but very informative interview with Talad, including some great screenshots from the CB Arena. Great work.

Edit: Not -that- short though. It does hold some text.

[Altharion]

i love the mail list  

[tybrus]

The pics of the arena are not actually screenshots, but renderings.  I must say that it does look promising through

[Tzur]

Just to clarify, those are renders, not screenshots =P

Edit: bah, just beat me to it =P

[Kiva]

I may be a girl, but I\'m not stupid and I definitely can read.

Here are some renderings (not in-game screenshots) of the Arena

That\'s what the interview says. Try reading it more thoroughly next time you post and think someone isn\'t right. Besides, I just said the screenshots looked great, and they do. (I know they\'re not in-game screenshots, but they\'re still screenshots!)


As for those interested in how the Arena has been made, we can all thank Artician for his great work. According to some dev who\'s heard some things, the whole structure is roughly 120k polys (\"So just the arena in CB is 50% more polys than all of MB combined\" ), and is made of somewhere between 10-12 sectors. So we definitely have something to look forward to in CB.

*drools in anticipation of epic gladitorial battles*
That is totally awesome.  It makes me long for the glory that will be CB.

[Tzur]

I just didn\'t want people to get mislead, no insult intended. =)

The renders sure look great though!



Ack!, first post and I\'m already digging my own grave, off to a great start! XD

[Xalthar]

indeed the new renders look pretty awesome, can\'t wait to get my hands on CB

[Arberar]

indeed can\'t wait to fight in the arena

[Yann]

I like the naked man statue in the first render.

Seriously, too bad we didn\'t get any new ingame screenshots. Cause renders are .. well, they are renders...

[Xanaroth]

*looks @ the arena pictures*

Yeah they do look awesome.

Just think...Only a few more months and CB will be here!

it looks similar in game, just the lighting is more simple.

Oh ok, I didn\'t know that. It\'s VERY NICE then, congratz !

[SaintNuclear]

I kinda wanted a longer interview, but who cares, it\'s something.

And those renderings.... Sheesh! 8o That just shows that a group of volunteers can do just as good as a group of paid employees!



Btw... I can see the butt of the statue in the first pic! :tongue: /me giggles like a schoolgirl and runs away


Edit: Only problem, it makes me want CB already even more! I really can\'t wait!
