Heya Mitch!

Let's come to you at first :

How are you? Do you like your new job? Well, that should be enough of polite questions, let's get to the game ( How much time did you spend in playing Frontlines up to now? )


What about the hardware? Do we need a high-end-computer to see Frontlines with all details? Or will a middle-class-computer be enough?
I've written a technical report, but that was months ago and there were only some sentences. But it said that Frontlines will support slower computer. So do you have some details now?

And what about the environment? How much percent will be destroyable? (Just in general, so you don't have to say "43,2938525 % will be destroyable )
And what will be destroyable? Only buildings? Or is the player allowed to blow up (for example) a tree and use him as cover?

What will happen to destroyed vehicles? Do they disappear right away or is it like Battlefield 2? Or will the environment be influenced by destroyed cars or tanks so the player is able to use them as cover?

Are some special parts of the vehicles destroyable? So the player could (for example) blow up the engine of a car and it won't be able to move anymore?

Let's get away of details now:

What is planned for the next future? Do you still work at some parts of the game? Or will the following months be used as a huge test to improve the performance? Will we see a demo soon? Maybe even a singleplayer-demo?

Thank you for each answer!

Greetings

DaPlayer

Hey Mitch ,

1. Is Frontlines: Fuel of War the start of a serial?
2. If so, will it carry on as expansion packs or with new chapters of the game?
3. Will there be warships or submarines? If not, is it possible for modders to add them later?

Loving the job, despite the hordes of enthusiastic fans "coming at me"!

They told me when I took the job that I had to spend my first week playing as much as possible.

This is a job???

Anyway, I probably play 2-3 hours a day. I'm a lightweight compared to our testing department of course!



Can't give you specifics yet but coming soon. The beta testing starts shortly so we will be able to release specs...



I can't say (ugh sorry) as it may change based on beta.

There are a lot of things you can blow up though which makes me happy!!!!



Again, some things may change in beta but you can use such things as cover for awhile.



Once it blows up, it blows up. It isn't that detailed (yet).

Again, a lot may change as we go through the beta so I don't want to make any promises!



Beta will be both to test the game as well as improve performance.

There will be a demo, we'll have details on it as we get closer to release!



Hope I helped!

Sorry I can't be more specific about some of your questions - and they were great questions - but we'll be releasing more information very soon so I'll be able to tell you much more!

There will be more information about this in the near future. All I can say right now.



The game is land-based, I think that is pretty evident from the screenshots/videos out there.

Can modders add in warships or submarines? Well I guess that depends on the modders!

Hi,

thanks for answering the questions of my mate.

My questions:

Will F:FoW supports ingame-Voip ?
Are there special features for teamplayers or supporters (ammunition) ? For example pulling a serious hurted soldier out of warzone or sniperview like in bf1942 ? ( snipers and artellery can see an spotted area )
Is it possible to re-throw grenades ?

You sayed it is land-based ! How dominant will planes or helicopters be ?

Thanks

Can you give us a list of all vehicles which will be included in Frontlines?

How strong will be the explosion of the nuclear bomb?
Will the bomb destory everytrhing in a defined range or will you be able to cover behind walls etc.?
Will there be a nuclear radiation after the explosion?

Will there be a buddy system in Frontlines? If not, include one

Will there be calculated fuel tanks in the vehicles? If yes:

• Will the vehicles drive only as long as you have enough fuel in the tank?
• Will a vehicle explode more extensive with a full fuel tank?

Will there be calculated ammunition in the vehicles? If yes:

• Will a vehicle explode more extensive with the complete loaded ammunition?

Will the soldiers walk faster with light weapons (for example a pistol) than with heavy ones (for example a rocket launcher)

Thanks

Hey guys, great questions. I'll follow-up later today as we're doing some testing this morning.

Didn't want to leave you hanging though! Keep posting questions and I'll get to them soon as I can!!!!

Can we play a Demo at the GC?
And:
Are there plans for an XBL Demo?


*Edit by LowRider*
@Mitch: GC means the Games Convention in Germany.

What is a XBL Demo? :O


*Edit by LowRider*
XBL Demo = XBox Live Demo
