''We treat Survarium as an heir to S.T.A.L.K.E.R,'' Say GSC Devs

Unread postby News Portal » 18 May 12, 2:17 pm

Survivarium is the next title coming from the developers who fled the collapsing remains of GSC Game World, and they've revealed that turning to multiplayer was necessary for their survival. "What we realized is that while we had been preoccupied with delivering single player titles one by one, the world changed, and we have to change too. Therefore, we decided to take a dramatic step and switch to online." Read the full story at Gamasutra.

Make a persistent world STALKER style game and I'd be interested. If it's just a multiplayer shooter or MMO almost certainly won't be interested.

The problem they forget is that most people who want stalker and loved stalker loved it because it was SP and it oozed atmosphere...

This is something that an online game cant bring really, or sustain...

You will get kid's exploiting the game just like any other mmo and see stupid stuff happening which will break the atmosphere.

It just wont be a true stalker game as before, it might be good... but it wont be what most of us Stalker fans want.

Publishers want multiplayer/online I suspect is more accurate. Players just want good games...

I actually think a STALKER MMO would be bloody awesome. The problem is my vision for it is one that is true to the original games so would not be published =(

You can disable the mouse smoothing in options.

Anybody complaining that this game will become and mmo, all i can say is suck s***. Thankyou to all the people that love their stwor, wow, rift, tera, etc. This is where PC gaming is headed, free to play and mmo if possible. There will be no more sp games because the majority love mmo's.

:evil:
