German Short report on Shells of Fury from the Games Convention in Leipzig 2006

Any news on this game?

Things are heating up. Amazon.com will sell it starting 27 September:
http://www.amazon.de/gp/product/3898...SIN=389874566X
and there's new info on marinesims.de:
http://www.marinesims.de/site/1914--...des-zorns.html
It's in German, but I could make out that it will have 50 missions - sorry, but guess no dynamic campaign. I think it will be something in the style of SH2, heavily scripted.

Did you notice the Amazon.de web sit that its for " windows 2000/ ME"

Didn't see anything about XP.:down:

An error I hope

lets hope that the scripting of the missions owes more to Shakespeare than some teenagers abbreviated text message.....:lol:

fingers crossed that it might be a playable and interesting game..the only thing that will prevent me from buying it will be the inclusion of some dumb overly paranoic copy-right protection sytem..

The title on the new game has changed. It is now:

nice shot ..looks ok to me..hope they keep it and also hope that the aircraft are as well done as the art suggests! half the fascination with this era will be the aircraft of both sides including the british blimps airships and dirigibles used to patrol and protect shipping..the variety and sheer inventivness of the designs will be one of the high-lights for me if they give it enough attention..don't know they are going to handle the AI for the destroyers tho...i hope they find a decent answer to the usual problems..all or nothing stuff..that seems to be the accepted norm..especaily given the lack of sonar..that should make life unpredictable..on paper...

Just received an email from Rondomedia informing me that the sim will be released in a few days and that they also put the game website online:

http://www.shells-of-fury.de/

The website has 2 trailers, of which one is new to me.

One can also buy the game online (via Amazon) for 30 Euros. According to the designers the game is for the XP platform. So the text on the Amazon website (2000 and ME) is not correct.

I think this low budget game will be lots of fun !

After watching the 2 trailers, I suppose the main concern and question is:

Is it gonna be moddable ? :hmm: ;)

I persomaly hope it will not ve modable. IMHO the EGOs of modders are waaaaay to big. They are painting the walls of a house, standing back and saying "look what I built" :D

Why not first enjoy the game for what is is instead of wanting to mod it before it even has been released ?

Well see how this game turns out! I think it'll be rther humble!:hmm:

Of course it will be humble, it is a budget game. But that does not mean it will not be lots of fun !
