SAN FRANCISCO, March 9, 2010 /PRNewswire/ — The global market leader in browser-based Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG), Bigpoint, (http://bigpoint.com) will be demonstrating the next generation of client-free PC gaming at Game Developers Conference 2010. Leading its product slate for 2010 will be Battlestar Galactica Online, a tactical space combat and adventure MMOG based upon Syfy’s Battlestar Galactica series. The MMOG, inspired by one of the most popular science fiction series in television history, will launch worldwide exclusively this fall on Syfy.com for a 30 day period. The Unity co-developed MMOG will offer state of the art graphics that can be played directly in an Internet browser. The teaser website for Battlestar Galactica Online is available at http://www.bgo.bigpoint.com and Bigpoint will be discussing this announcement at booth 2038 at Game Developers Conference, March 9th-12th. Battlestar Galactica Online is licensed through Universal Partnerships & Licensing, on behalf of the NBC Universal Television Consumer Products Group.

Battlestar Galactica is the gripping saga of humanity’s last remnants and their struggle to find a new home while fleeing from their deadly Cylon enemies. Redefining the space opera with its gritty realism, Galactica’s intensity, issues-driven topicality, and command performances have garnered it numerous awards, including three Emmy(R) Awards and the prestigious George Foster Peabody Award. The show was recognized by the American Film Institute (AFI) as one of the most outstanding programs of the year two years running. The series was produced by Universal Cable Productions and executive produced by Ronald D. Moore and David Eick. The outstanding ensemble cast was led by Edward James Olmos, Mary McDonnell, Katee Sackhoff, Jamie Bamber, James Callis, Tricia Helfer and Grace Park.

“Battlestar Galactica is a supremely gameable intellectual property, with compelling character classes, a fantastic array of ships and weaponry, multiple worlds, and a dramatic storyline,” said Bill Kispert, VP & GM, Digital Platforms, Universal Partnerships & Licensing. ” We are excited to work with Bigpoint – and our partners at Universal Cable Productions and Syfy – to bring an epic, accessible, and ‘always on’ BSG experience to fans of the franchise and online gamers alike.”

“Cooperation between Bigpoint and NBC Universal is a very important strategic step for us,” explains Heiko Hubertz, CEO and founder of Bigpoint. “Battlestar Galactica has a huge and passionate fan base. We are proud to be able to publish such an internationally famous title as one of our online games. For the first time ever, we’re relying completely on Unity in order to offer our users fantastic game graphics right in their browsers.”

Battlestar Galactica Online is the first game inspired by a blockbuster Hollywood franchise to be fully developed on Unity technology for MMO audiences. This platform independent engine makes it possible to produce real-time 3D applications such as MMO games with exceptionally high quality graphics without having to download a client.

Players will be able to choose to play as cylons or humans in a constant struggle to control the universe or just survive its perils. A blend of tactical space combat, exploration, and mission-based gameplay will provide a diverse experience. The dramatic missions will define the game’s overall storyline, enabling the player to delve into mysteries of the Battlestar universe. Battlestar Galactica Online will create a new standard for web games, with beautiful 3d graphics and innovative game mechanics bringing a new level of game play to browser based MMOG. Assets from the television production will be integrated into the game to deliver an even more authentic experience.

Verrà sviluppato in flash e si dimenticheranno di disabilitare il menu del tasto destro.

No se rovinano il buon nome di BSG organizziamo un DDoS e gli tiriamo giù tutto.

Spettacolo

joyrex · March 11, 2010, 9:39am

Si, unity è decisamente da paura e la scelta di utilizzarlo è apprezzabile.
Speriamo bene...

Se ne sentiva proprio il bisogno.

joyrex · March 11, 2010, 11:47am

Se tutti ragionassero come te saremmo in giro con le ruote quadrate e le clave.

sendro85 · March 11, 2010, 12:32pm

è la stessa tecnologia di interstellar marines, quello degli squali spaziali

impressive quello che si può far girare in un browser oggigiorno

9a6a86853d31de5e33454a16302521de · March 11, 2010, 4:38pm

La tua frecciatina cade proprio male.

Ma scusa, secondo te Battlestar Galactica offre qualche spunto per essere riadattato in versione MMOG?
La scelta quale sarà? Fare uno dei 45,000 nomadi dello spazio di cui circa 43000 civili oppure fare uno di 12 modelli di cylon tutti uguali?

joyrex · March 11, 2010, 5:49pm

Minchia spero proprio che facciano qualcosa di meglio

Choose race: Cylon | Human
Cylon
"Sorry, all slots are full"
then Human
"Sorry, all slots are full"
FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU

Vabbè ma il telefilm è stato quel che è stato non si tocca.

Via libera a qualsivoglia videogioco in merito
