Gloria Victis: New Team Members Bring Experience

SBFordSBFord Former Associate EditorMember LegendaryPosts: 33,129

The Gloria Victus team has expanded with the addition of three experienced developers to help facilitate the smoothing out of animations in the game. The team utilized feedback from sites, including MMORPG.com, to create a plan. In addition, the 'sandbox crafting' database has been overhauled.

The first piece of news is that we welcome three new members to our development team: two of which are Jacek Komuda and Maciej Jurewicz. Jacek is a famous Polish author who has had dozens of his works published, both Jacek and Maciej have written for projects such as The Witcher and Bulletstorm. Together, they will be responsible for writing captivating lore for Gloria Victis. We hope to show a few lines of the lore without spoiling it in the near future, for now we have their word that the lore will be gritty, bloody, dark and styled like classic RPGs.

The second piece of news pertains to animations with regards to comments made on www.mmorpg.com and other websites regarding this aspect of Gloria Victis. We welcome our third new member Jarosaw Zieliski to the team, Jaroslaw is an experience animator that has worked on many games such as Two Worlds II, Deadfall Adventures, Painkiller: Hell & Damnation or NecroVision. In addition to recruiting a talented and experienced animator we have also made the first installment towards the purchase of motion capture technology, something we could not have done without all of those that donated towards Gloria Victis, we would like to take this opportunity to thank you all once again and to remind you that there will be special thank you gifts other than simply Pre-Alpha access to our large donors. All animations will now be reworked with our new equipment to give a more fluid and realistic animations! We would like to thank once again those that gave positive comments for your support and those that gave critical ones, even the most vitriol of comments have a grain of truth behind and we take all feedback seriously.

In other news, we have completely reworked our database for the implementation of our complex sandbox crafting system, the ability to create War-bands as well as the addition of a second nation. Players in this upcoming update will be able to fight for the glory of their standard as well as for the honour of their nation, all of which will be available on even lower computer requirements due to the many optimizations in our coding we have made in the past month. We expect this update to take us over a month but we will keep you all constantly updated with the progress of this monumental update.

Thank you all once again for your feedback, donations and continued support!

    Great news, I wish this game all the best. I'm really tired of happy ever after type of fantasy and would like more realistic styled games, graphic and content wise.

    Thanks for it! Somehow it says Ear-bands instead of Warbands on the news :P

    I think it could be interresting for you guys:

    I keep waiting for an indie to hit a home run,  I wish them luck.

    Fixed the "earbands" thing, though, gotta say...that would definitely be an innovative new feature in the MMO space! :D

    Thanks for the update. I very much hope they are able to continue and make the game they want to make. While the super-realistic theme isn't my ideal approach, I do think there is a lot of potential there for those who like it. I will certainly follow development and give it a shot nonetheless. Some cool ideas going on, and the production values are impressive given the "budget." Devs seem to have great attitudes and passion for their game, which is to be lauded. Good luck! :)

    I know its pre-alpjha video and all, but I truly hope the combat gets fixed.  its funny watching a guy swing a sword that hits like 5 inches away from a mob, and then .5 sec later it drops

    The only thing I didn't like about the videos on the home page was that avatars were not quite fluid so this will hopefully give a more realistic feel to creatures in the game.
