A questo punto mi sta venendo il dubbio che ce l'abbiano. Mi sto quasi pentendo di aver pledgato.

Wut?

[Shirlias]

in due han già versato 10k cmq

[Lucasart]

Sono arrivati alla soglia dei 200k, se mantengono questa media dovrebbero riuscire nell'impresa.

Intanto, nuovo update, almeno hanno capito che devono rilasciare quante più informazioni possibili:

Primo video con un po' di sostanza:

Sto Kickstarter finirà cancellato di questo passo.
Per altro lo stanno gestendo veramente male.

[Lucasart]

Eh, kickstarter gestito veramente dimmerda.
Hanno iniziato malissimo, con pochissimi update nei primi giorni e senza uno stralcio di video dimostrativo, contando solo sulla fanbase dell'originale.
Si sono rissolevati successivamente, soprattutto dietro suggerimento dei bakers, mostrando un po' di materiale ma in questi giorni, complici anche le feste, sono tornati a non postare nulla di concreto.

Altro esempio di sviluppatri che non ha capito come funziona la piattaforma...

Gestire un ks così, vuol dire perderlo senza se e senza ma.
Nessuna comunicazione di rilievo, nessun tipo di presenza costante e aggiornamenti rilevanti.
E mi spiace, perchè un remake di Outcast, anche solo un semplice porting in hd con grafica migliorata, sarebbe veramente stupendo..

Ultimo update, essenzialmente un mea culpa per la campagna kickstarter non condotta nel migliore dei modi.
Gli sviluppatori, comunque, continueranno a lavorare al progetto:

This campaign was very exciting and rewarding and gives this amazing opportunity of gathering the Outcast community.

Thanks to your commitment and the overall feedback we received, we truly believe, more than ever, that this project deserves to be done and we are more than eager to make it happen. Will it be through another Kickstarter or another crowdfunding platform, paypal, private investment, some bank loans, public support, distributor deals or a mix of all that, we will see.

Now, time is for analysis and thinking of the different options we have to finance this project given the economic reality. It may require some time and we'll do our best to share with you any significant information we might have regarding the next step.

In the meantime, we may bother you a little by sending surveys in the coming weeks to get your feedback on various topics. Please take time to answer, your feedback is very valuable to us.

Piccolo uppete, sembra che il gioco sia ancora in lavorazione:

Outcast.
A while ago I told you guys about the amazing game called Outcast. Outcast was released in 1999 and the game was a revolution at itself. It featured a massive world, immense gameplay, great storytelling, beautiful graphics, real life-like AI and much much more.

Unfortunately, the publisher Infogrames which hold the rights of the original game went bankrupt before Outcast 2 could see the light of day and with it the franchise was put to a hold. However, hope was revived when in 2013 the original developers, now called Fresh3D, bought back the rights of the game with the plan to revive Outcast. From there, they started a Kickstarter to create a HD reboot of the game but unfortunalty the Kickstarter failed because the needed funds were not met. After that setback it got awefully quiet but Fresh3D was secretly still working on Outcast.

Today, the moment of my silence is over and I am glad to announce that Outcast is definately coming back!

In the very near future, Outcast v1.1 will be released through various gaming platforms which will be announced later. Many additions and tweaks have been made to the game and it looks better than ever! I'll provide the information here on the quickssilverrgaming Facebook page when Outcast v1.1 is available for purchase.

The last few months I posted small and secret messages that I knew more than I could say about Outcast and now is the time to tell you what this was all about:
After the Kickstarter, some members of Fresh3D approached me asking advice on some topics and even allowing me to test two builds of the coming v1.1 version of the game with me providing feedback to them. This was an amazing opportunity and it really is an eye-opening experience to see the changes being done to the game with the release of every new build.

I would like to seize this moment to thank Fresh3D for giving me this amazing opportunity and wish them all the luck in the world with reviving the Outcast franchise!

Speriamo in bene.

Un po' più di info in merito:

There is indeed new information about Outcast and I was given permission today to share it! The last few months Fresh3D is working hard with the resources they have to further develop Outcast and I can inform you that probably within a week, Outcast v1.1 is released on various gaming platforms like Steam, GoG.com and probably others as well.

Outcast v1.1 is the same game that launched back in 1999 but with a lot of tweeks, improvements and a few new additions in gameplay. This version has also been altered to work on modern day computers with ease. Let it be clear that Outcast v1.1 is not the reboot Fresh3D has hoped to produce because of the failed Kickstarter BUT...they will continue to release future updates through the various gaming platforms mentioned above when you purchase the game.

Outcast v1.1 is the definitive name for now as far as I can tell because again, it is not the reboot they wanted to make for us gamers. But Fresh3D has made something really clear to me: Outcast v1.1 is the first step in reviving the Outcast franchise! They really want to create more than this improved version of the original Outcast and there are some more ideas for future projects but it all depends how Outcast v1.1 will go in the future.

Hanno fatto in fretta, questa nuova versione sarà disponibile da stasera:

Outcast 1.1 has been recompiled from the original source code and improved to run smoothly on today's computers.The main improvements compared to the original version are: multithreaded voxel renderer for higher performances, software bilinear filtering on polygonal meshes, part of the HUD redesigned to match higher resolutions, new high-resolution sky paintings, new launcher, native support of xbox gamepad, user-friendly controller configuration, a lot of bugs fixed and improved stability.

Bon, ottima cosa

[Ficus]

la patch più tarda della storia dei videogiochi

[Lucasart]

Se sono furbi, approfittano dei saldi per proporlo con un piccolo sconto come daily, come fatto dai Larian con Divinity.

[Lucasart]

Il gioco è uscito or ora su Steam al prezzo di 5 euri.
Per chi come me ha la versione GOG, dovrebbero upgradare tra oggi e domani.

Figo, me l'ero perso all'epoca. Vale la pena?
