OGaM Project - Black & White 2: Multiplayer news

It has been some time since the last bit of news was posted for this game. Alas things have changed.

On behalf of the team I am excited to say that Black & White 2: Multiplayer is Coming Soon. The multiplayer picks up the features of the old BnW1 MP with the use of the BoTG hand feature. The AI of the NPC gods are played out by an enhanced version of the God AI but also the ability to verse other players is created by the extension of the Script Library with an external Socket Library.

This allows p2p(Peer-to-Peer) or online LAN games to be played and is an exciting new breakthrough for Black & White 2 and the community.

In about a week's time the OGaM's Teams programmer iRzilla should have a viable working copy of MP that does everything mentioned. Tests and all that will need to go ahead before anything is released but I am confident that it will be released all in good time.

Please be patient as the MP game will still take a while to be done before it is released to the community.

Overall here are a few features of multiplayer:
- PvP LAN and online LAN gaming.
- Skirmish NPC god versing.
- Ranking system for players to see how they fair in the world.
- Clans

The MP game will also have included in the download an SDK which is needed to make landscapes online capable.

If you would like more info on the purpose or any general info about the MP game please PM iRzilla at the OGaM forums or at Kayssplace. :)
