A fan posted on our forums, news that AoA has been featured in the November issue of PCJeux(French PC Gamer). Everyone sit back and open up a bottle of champagne! The fan was even so nice to provide us with a scan of the magazine page.
If anyone can translate this page for us, it would be wonderful! I'm still wondering if this is shown in the UK edition of PC Gamer, so if anyone knows or has scans, please let me know. Thanks!
My little translation:
Ashes of Apocalypse
Some post-nuclear Morrowind: great stuff!
You left Morrowind while it was an excellent solo role playing game in a very classical medieval-fantastic universe.
Well, time passed out and, now that we're all waiting for Oblivion, some crazy guys decided to make a post-nuclear role playing game from this ancestor.
First, on a graphical point, we're close to an Anarchy Online: a good point. The goal of the game ? Survive in this hostile world. Everything changed: textures, graphics for sure and all materials too, due to the period. Geiger counter, weapons and other new stuff will be there. The developpers predict customizable weapons, but nothing's really definitive due to the project's advance. For the moment, the game zone predicted for the first beta version will be very limited, but original modders of the project predict to size up the Ashes Of Apocalypse's universe.
Until the arrival of Fallout 3 (developpement by Bethesda), to hunt some mutant: check out the official website of this mod and don't hesitate to post your ideas on the forum: those little guys are very receptives to new ideas. The launch of the mod should be done in the fall of 2005... Cross your fingers !
Thanks! :)
No problemo & keep up the good work ;)
