Hey congrats ScHlAuChi on getting a distribution deal. that's great! I look forward to the game getting released.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Wow. Looks great.

Will consoles have dedicated servers?

We dont know that yet, sorry

 

[MesserWolf]

....

Well .... Good Luck ! Hopefully you will be one of those Indie success story that I love!

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Looks like its available for preorder now:

EU 9.99€

Im surprised myself that it was priced so low in EU/UK!

Took a look at the video. Gameplay-wise it's a far cry from what I've seen in the mod. New moves and dynamic seems to be improved.

Definetely - all the clunkyness from the mod is gone, its alot faster and more dynamic!
I tried playing the mod version again recently and i couldnt believe how bad it was!

 

[Glass Rebel]

Looks pretty good but some of the animations are really, really stiff. The uppercut in particular. Still somewhat interested and might give it a chance. How much will I get out of this game if I only intend to play it alone?

Currently not too much, however that might change in the future.

 

[Glass Rebel]

Oh, ok then. Still good luck to you guys, looks great for a first effort!

While not at all what I originally hoped for when I saw the thread title, that still looks like it could be fun.

What was it you hoped for?

 

[scorpscarx]

Exclusively for GAF i made a short gameplay video of me playing a round of survival!

I had some Hiccups during recording, so dont be surprised when theres skips.
Also note that this does not reflect the final game yet, as there are still some bugs.
The number of monsters and things like still needs balancing.
I didnt play that well and forgot to show some moves

In any case - enjoy:

AWESOME looks really fun, bought, and thank you.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Less than 2 weeks till release, so i thought i make a little feature for those who are interested how i created one of the Haunted levels!

You can see that towards the end the artists start to make the level look non-crappy

 

[Neuromancer]

Very cool getting to see how the proverbial sausage is made.

Yeah, quite cool, thanks ScHlAuChi.

The first person who can answer this question will get a free Steam key:

What was the name of the first map that was inlcuded in the mod-version of Haunted?

Forsaken Canyon?

edit: oh =(

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Forsaken Canyon?

Nope sorry, the solution is not that easy

 

[kamspy]

Shangri-La?

 

[Plasma]

Seems to be a massive step there between the map being kind of blank and then having all the models placed, that must have taken somebody quite awhile

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Shangri-La?

That was a UT3 map that someone converted - so nope

 

[Houston3000]

I remember this mod, was really fun... my friend and I played it for hours one night. Really liked doing the Demons vs Humans mode - spawning shit tons of those little annoying bastards and then dropping the giants right around the corner. Is that mode still in the game?

Is it that Excavation map? That was the first one I played

 

[hypodrmage]

Old - West?

Yep took around 3-4 months in total from start to finish!

That mode is still there, and nope Excavation was the 4th map that was added.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Old - West?

This is the newest map actually

 

[Irish]

Sanctuary?

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Sanctuary?

Nope, sorry

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Lost Temple?

Bah...I already want to change my answer. But I'll stick with it.

That was the 3rd Map

Doh!

 

[R1CHO]

The stronghold?

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Lost Temple?

That was the 3rd Map

 

[wwm0nkey]

Graveyard?

 

[AcceptableGhost]

Stronghold?

 

[Corto]

Tomb Map?

 

[ScHlAuChi]

The stronghold?

While this was the first map, its not the correct answer as the map had a different name in the very first release of the mod version

 

[R1CHO]

Ops, then i have no idea.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Nothing that cant be found out with some minimal effort
So far no correct solution yet!

 

[hypodrmage]

Abbey?

 

[AcceptableGhost]

Abbey?
edit: wow missed it while typing it

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Abbey?

Gah...Yeah. This is right. Me too slow. I had to download the original beta, open it up and find the map to figure it out.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

Abbey?

Ding Ding Ding Ding - we have a winner!

 

[hypodrmage]

Wooo!

 

[Vincent Alexander]

Congrats! Before I hop outta the thread for a bit, just wanted to say how awesome it is to see how you created the maps. One of these days I'd love to learn how to do something like that.

 

[ScHlAuChi]

As i got 3 correct answers in a very short time, we have 3 winners:

hypodrmage
MTMBStudios
Vincent Alexander

Check your PMs!

 

[Woorloog]

Am i only one who managed to read the title as Halo Reach and wonder what THQ has to do with Halo Reach?

We support modding right out of the box - you can create maps for Haunted from Day1

As a UT3 newbie, I loved seeing this. Are you guys planning on releasing some "Making of" videos for the game?

 

[demolitio]

Any game that supports modding deserves a look. I miss the days of working on mods...

 

[Stitch]

is the german version uncensored...?

Sorry, but we dont really have time for that - i just had barely time to make this feature
