New Soldiers of Anarchy interview

[Kreegle]

<strong>[ -> N/A]</strong>

A site named, interestingly enough, <a href="http://www.ggmania.com/full.php3?show=5477" target="_blank">GameGuru Mania</a>, have just conducted an interview with <b>Mr. Carsten Strehse</b> from <a href="http://www.silver-style.com/" target="_blank">Silver-Style Entertainment</a>... the chaps working on that post-apocalyptic RTS, <a href="http://www.soldiers-of-anarchy.com/" target="_blank">Soldiers of Anarchy</a>. Here's a couple of questions to get you interested:<blockquote><em><b>GGMania</b>: Why the choice of post apocalyptic? Do you like an idea of post-apocalyptic Earth?


<b>Carsten Strehse</b>: I like post apocalyptic settings very much and i think a lot of people do. Who does not like Mad Max? :-) At the same time there seem to be very few good post apocalyptic games on the market.

This is strange because a lot of people like this scenario. It's a lot of fun to create a post-apocalyptic game You can use realistic weapons and items + you have a lot of freedom regarding the story.


<b>GGMania:</b> What kind of support do you plan to provide for the mod community? Will you be releasing any of your tools?


<b>Carsten Strehse:</b> The first tool, the level editor, is part of the game. As part of the after sales marketing we will release a lot of stuff after the release and we expect that the community will build up many single- and multiplayer-missions plus complete campaigns.</em></blockquote>Read more of the fun <a href="http://www.ggmania.com/full.php3?show=5477" target="_blank">over here</a>.

Finally, a game that will come with an editor. Haven't seen a game like that in a while.

Half-Life came with a beta version of Worldcraft, at least mine did
Hopefully they plan to keep updating it as well

Most editing tools work outside of the game. SOA is more like Starcraft in how you can load the editor through the game.

Just because there's an option in the main menu to run the editor program and shut down the game doesn't mean the editor is built in. Just a shortcut to it.
