Ding ding...we have a winner. This announcement was to have been of the company that will be developing the planet actually assisting in the coding of the planet that the MA crytek engine will run. This is not the Chineese planets which again sources say will number between 8 and 9 seperate planets. Some of the chineese planets will be for education, some will be for commerce etc.... Think of ninja jackets at New Oxford maybe as a beta test for how some of these new chineese planets may work.



yes and no...the new planet that "was" going to be annouced will be built entirely on the new engine, however its possible that some of the chineese content will be available before the engine, im a little fuzzy on that tho.




I had the opportunity to talk for about an hour to the company reps that are designing this new non-chineese planet. They were very open with concepts and possibilities, but were not ready to discuss specifics about the new planet. The company is more of an engineering firm than a game development firm. Per the reps, the planet will have ores, enmatters, mobs, etc.... Items from this planet will be similar...maybe like lyst and oil and exo's, but it will also have unique items only available on this planet.

They have a very aggressive time frame for pushing out there new content of it being available before end of 2008. My belief is that the planet will be available, however all functions/resources/areas of this planet will not necessarily be open...think Amethera.

MA asked that we dont leak the name of the company, and the reps did not disclose it, however Im sure some of the more creative folks in our little kingdom of players will be able to figure it out.

Regards,
lol, are you sure MA asked you not to leak it?

Cuz you're doing it the wrong way.


btw on your suggestion an after a bit of searching past the obvious results, i stumbled on this news item and i can't believe how we missed this:

Seems they are into hotels and theme parks mostly but Netstalkers post also says the partner company is more of an engineering company than a game developer anyway.

Just wanted to add the company motto also;

"Defining the future of themed destinations"

The new planet will be rougly like calipso, but mabe with some improvations to suck our money with more subtility.

Remember we need to travel to this planet. So if it a disaster in Loots or tatal decay ripoff, nobody will go on.

Probabely the tarvel will be a TP like the CP one, and the price will be splited between MA and the partner 's planets.

...also casinos, jod. Their web page shows a good handfull of them including some in Vegas.

I'm still betting on the orbs to be the gateway between partner-developed systems. Yeah, MA's trying to build a universe.. maybe even a multiverse, but corporate accountants are notorious for not playing well with others as a "just jump in and fly to it" universe model would be.

Who knows? Maybe we'll have to generate completely different avatars "over there" and we jump into a different virtual body when we travel away from calypso?

All speculation on my part of course. It'll be interesting to see how it all plays out.

Well, if they are into casinos and hotels, let's all hope that "Planet Carlsberg" is ready soon so we all can get some shipments of beer

Yes spotted that on my second pass through the site and believe me the irony was not lost
No doubt that will be used against them in here at some stage
