We’re following BioWare’s KOTOR example, says EndWar boss
Quote:

bisoft Shanghai creative director Michael de Plater has told VG247 that his team’s take on RTS with EndWar follows a path BioWare forged with Knights of the Old Republic and the RPG genre, in that his franchise will lead on console before making its way to PC.

“It’s not that we don’t want to do a PC version, and it’s not that it wouldn’t be a good PC game,” he said, when asked why EndWar wasn’t leading on PC, as was traditional in the RTS field.

“I think that really we’re kind of following in the footsteps of BioWare in regards to what they did on RPGs with Knights of the Old Republic, where they had their PC background and experience with Neverwinter Nights and other RPGs, then when they did Knights of the old Republic they shifted the camera down, used their control scheme, made it much more cinematic and used the Star Wars license…

“And then subsequent to that, they could do Knights of the Old Republic on PC and it’s no problem.”

He added: “We’ve basically followed their model.”


seems the PC version will be good....
BTW,its newer then that news:

Seems it aint coming at all to me.


why? did u read the first sentence carefully?

Quote:
Michael de Plater of Ubisoft tells Videogaming247 the reason that Tom Clancy's EndWar isn't coming out for the PC on the same day as the console versions is because of concerns about piracy:

It's coming for PC. Ubisoft said they will delay the PC release a couple of weeks due to piracy. They did the same with Brothers in arms: Hells highway.

Other companys will probably follow up on this.

ha, I'd rather this not ever hit PC, they dumbed down and destroyed everything that had the slightest amount of strategy in it. Look at rainbow six. What makes them think they can do an RTS?

It's no different than EA trying to continue the CnC games.

If they can prove me wrong then by all means, I'll buy it if it's good but I have nothing but doubts.

BTW, that trailer was funny.

The saddest thing here is, that when this game fail on the pc market, compared to all the others products around, some smartass ubisoft spokesman will pull the 'blame piracy' card Sad

played it on xbox and it was a dull , dumbed down RTS with broken voice commands (numbers "two" and "three" are fucked in Eng voice recognition , so i said fuck this crap and playing now in German Razz - the X version is multi voice recognition Eng+Ger+French+Spanish+2 other ) this game was made from day one as a multiplayer game , so forget about the single part (it has the weakest story telling presentation ever)

so how does it play , well imagine Ground Control with Voice commands and no mouse support and you get the picture

Ground Control was good... If they make it G4WL, it should be a great MP strategy.

translation: you'll have to buy the console version, 'cause you're not "tech-savvy" enough to pirate it and you can't wait a bit more for the easily-piratable pc release.

this description might fit quite a lot of people, and the publishers are prolly used to the idea that pc gamers won't buy that many copies to make a simultaneous release worthwhile.

the console has to be modded. not everyone knows how to do it by themselves, or knows where to get it done, or, for that matter, is willing to do something that might break it.
also you lose the warranty, so if you get rrod'ed, you're fucked.
and you might get banned from live.
and you might get pregnant.

if you compare all these hoops with following the instructions from a .nfo file, you'll see that it's not that bad of an excuse.

not all right for me. depend from the kind of DRM and how many triggers they put then. that crackers have to break a DRM and then u can't play is almost useless. look to sacred 2 or red alert 3 anyway they don't have a proper crack and RA 3 then have uncrackables patches

i still don't think this had anything to do with the delay...

its either "damn too much competition right now"

or (more likely)

we had some issues porting the game to pc .. and well , instead of telling that, lets tell them some lie (cause i seriously can't see many people buying this for the 360 INSTEAD for the pc (those who wanted to buy it on pc anyway). I just can't ...

Those that are tech savvy enough to follow the varez releases, are tech savvy enough to replace the badly cracked EXE or DLL with a newer, proper one. Rolling Eyes On the other hand, those that are total noobs, by the time they find the download and decide to get it (i.e. by the time it comes to emule and public torrent trackers), either cracks are already done properly, or there are million comments of the "ZOMG uploader please fix crack no works waaa" comments that will make them wait and download the proper release. BTW, the former kind of "" people don't know what patches are. They just play the game for what it is.

these are the sort of people that are afraid to mod their xboxes and the sort that will buy a game if it's not cracked "soon enough", even if said game doesn't even have a demo.

and there's a lot of them.

if a publisher delays a pc release because of the piracy, these are the customers that they're aiming for.

when devs say that piracy affects pc sales, the are not talking about the 1-2% folks in US and Europe that are downloading them to play on their homepcs. They are talking about the oraganized market in India, China, Russia, Malaysia that gets these games and sells them to any tom dick and harry. Console games havent succeeded that way because even if you buy the disks of these guys, you still need to mod your console. And 90% of console owners still believe modding/hacking your console can damage it and put it out of warranty. There is also the general perception that modding reduces shelf life of the console!!!!
