ASHURA: DARK REIGN

This game is based on a darker perspective of the Sonic Universe, and will be for mature players only. If you're under the age of whatever Unreal Tournament 2007 is in your country, you shouldn't play this game. Like UT2007 it will contain violence, blood, gore, with the off chance of cursing and possibly some sexual references.

A:DR is an Action Adventure Puzzle Horror game, if you can call it that.

..What to expect..
New characters, old friends, new zones, new allies, new foes.
No ripped levels, bosses, vehicles or objects from Sega games.
And most of all NO PLOT HOLES!

..Gameplay..
This isn't a shooter like UT2004, you will have to find objects to use, solve puzzles, and interact with a number of NPC characters to progress through the story. With it not being a first person shooter, we also don't want it to be like Sonic Heroes, Shadow the Hedgehog where you run from A to B jumping and dodging things, so we opted to use the Sonic Adventure playfield setup.

..Features..

  • Chaos control abilities.

  • Melee combat.

  • Loved Sonic physics: loopings, wall running...

  • Old & modern style of attacks.

  • Grinding.

  • New characters to interact with.

  • Dialogue selection box.

  • New weapons.

  • Monitors: shields, speed shoes, invincibilty...

  • Unlockable features.

  • Cinematic cutscenes.

  • Badniks.

  • Return of some old favourites.

  • And the good trusty rings.

..What about multiplayer??..
30+ Characters to choose from.
5 online gametypes to play.

Whats the difference between the UT2004 and UT2007 versions of A:DR?
The UT2007 version will feature better graphics, better models, and additional levels and characters than its UT2004 counterpart.

This is a HUGE project and it WILL take along time due to the amount of custom content that needs creation.

As you are aware we are busy working on getting the UT2004 tech demo together, so no work as of yet has really been started on this version of ADR.

Currently some of the team is researching the new UT3 engine and watching video tutorials of the new engine at work, as well as playing UE3 games like Gears of War, Rainbow Six: Vegas and Roboblitz, to get a feel of what can be acomplished in the new Game Engine.

Until the Release of Unreal Tournament 3, there will not be much progress on ADR:UT3.
But as soon as the tech demo is out, we will be using Roboblitz as a test bed for ADR:UT3 content.We will post renders of objects and characters that will be imported into the game as and when their done.

I think the team wants to try to release both versions during the same time period. And besides, you guys said that you were going to see if UT2004 stuff worked with UT3, did they work?

Actually doing it this way is a bit of a cheat for the Ut2004 version.
And alot of things get reused for UT2004.
This way makes it a faster release for both versions.
At the moment I'm the only mapper, modeler, and animator, on the team so I need a short cut.

We have the new unrealed. the one shipped with RoboBlitz gives us a head start for the UT3 version.
The forums are a little haywire as you so put it due to some difficulties with Ip addressing

Its down to the engine version.
UT'99 the first ever Unreal Tournament was built using the UE1. (Unreal Engine 1)
UT2003 & UT2004 was built on UE2. Hence the whole 2XXX thing.
They recently decided that seeing as UT2007 was very different in storyline compared to the previous versions of UT and the fact that its built on UE3. They decided to rename it to UT3. Also it could be due to UT being released on Console (Xbox 360 and PS3) as well as PC.

Taken from beyondUnreal'

Quote:Here was a little of our thinking. "Unreal" and the unreal typeface is an established brand. The "Unreal Tournament" words and typefaces together are a well known IP with a history that we wanted to honor. We actually want the "III" to be understated so new console buyers coming to the game see "Unreal Tournament" more than the fact that this is a third instalment. In considering this, we made the decision to lose the boomerang, and keep the "III" simple, and make it a background element. This way Unreal Tournament becomes more of the focus and a more consistent brand across all platforms, whether you're a new player seeing it for the first time, or a battle hardened warrior who's had his share of Tournament shock combos to the head.
