Well i'm already learning the udk system. I'm a really fast learner and what i always do is start with difficult things not with easy things.AHadley wrote:They were using UDK3. The development stopped because the lead developer didn't know how to lead a project. It's his first game and he didn't really have a clue what he was doing; there was a learning curve for all of us, and from what I see he fell on the wrong side of his and couldn't cope.Vision1 wrote:That's to bad..
Yes indeed it's a bad sign that nobody released any info on it.
Why they stopped? They are funded and all. And from what i've seen about it, it looks great.
I don't know about the gameplay
How many people where in total? Okay 23.
Did you/they build their own engine or did they use some other engine? Cause building an engine within 2 years plus the game itself is very fast...
I'm currently working with the UDK development kit unreal engine 3. Man what a machine
I'm gonna build something like that but specifically for fps + rts combo's. With the style like battlezone games in mind..
Well that's my aim overtimeA complete kit for such games. That's my plan. (Estimated Time Frame: 20 years. On my own.)
Unless this already exists??
As to the funding, well, I have yet to hear from a developer who's received any payment for their contribution.
By the way, engine building is a hell of a lot of work. If you started now, on your own and with as little programming knowledge as you do, as soon as you got something it would be so far behind the curve it wouldn't be worth using. Start small (flash games and the like) and work up (indie projects, join a studio, do larger stuff, strike out on your own).
The team has one programmer, which is LtFeed. He hasn't worked on anything before and had zero knowledge of UDK before this project began.jack775544 wrote:A quick look on the Bionite forums and I was able to find this:

Even though that came from Jayden and not LtF, it looks like it is still going ahead
Dont forget you also follow an education, and eventhough you may be one of the lucky few that still get their scolarship, you wont if you happen to fail a year. Ask yourself what you rather have, an education or a hobby, as I can tell you from experience that doing a lot of stuff like this on the side does not go very with an education that has no fundation in this area. You will more than likelly not fully succeed in both.Vision1 wrote:AHadley wrote:Well i'm already learning the udk system.
