Many Details On Huxley - New

[InsaneRussian]

Well i was searching for a bit more info on Huxley cause soon it has Closed Beta. What i found wasn't been much but it still might get some questions answered.
Lets take a look at this: http://www.warcry.com/news/view/6972...Huxley-Preview
Huxley Preview Based on interview with Jason Wonac. It's from 19 Mar 2007 which isn't that old. Anyhow back to the point.

In that preview they write:
"The players will need to work together to be successful in Webzen and features like built in VOIP should only help. "
VoIP is Voice Over IP - Which means that it's something like teamspeak/skype whatever. They have it in BF2 and BF2142 you just hold a butten and Commanders can talk to all squad leaders (and reverse) and sqaud leaders can talk to whole squad and the squad members can talk to eachother and squad leader.

Also they said:
"The two sides cannot intermingle in their cities, although Webzen did account for the possibility that certain instanced PvP battles might take players inside the other's city."
Pretty fun :D

Bad news for XBox-ers:
"The game is scheduled to hit the PC market late this year with the Xbox 360 version to follow six months or more later. "
Many people have heard this before but some won't simply accept this. So i post it again. DOn't forget it's a preview based on interview.

In this http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3158152 preview from 03/21/2007 they mention the names of 2 capital cities:
"The cities in which the races live are Nostalonia -- the Sapien hub comprised of several different districts -- and Eska, home of the Alternative race"Also they mention that there WILL be chating:
"Webzen has built in all of the obvious functions, like chatting and trading features"
Comes more about the cities in this article from gamespot:
http://www.gamespot.com/pc/action/hu...45&mode=recent"Currently, the game is planned to launch with two major cities (one for each faction) and eight smaller cities, along with about 80 battlefields, each of which can house up to 200 players at once."
2 Capitals and 8 smaller cities. 1 Capital and 4 smaller cities for each race.

There will be Auction houses:
"An auction system has also been designed for inclusion from the outset, which could be particularly important, given that weapon and armor crafting will help shape the course of Huxley's economy."

The enchants of your armor will be able only from lvl 15:
"The real customization, however, takes place in the abilities you choose to bring into battle. You can collect and earn a myriad of skills, but only equip five at a time, which makes skill equipping a tactical decision. The rationale behind this is that skills are mapped to armor slots -- with five armor slots available, that makes for five skill slots. You can't equip skills until you're level 15" I believe that's armor grade D (A = 0-5, B = 5-10 and so on).

Also they mention in http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?pa...=1&cId=3158152 differnet skills and PvP game types. So if you are intrested you can read about it.

Anyhow, all this details are very intresting and you can read the whole previews from:

So if you think there is very little info on Huxley, you're wrong. It's very little info on Huxley that you know but you have to search for it to find more =)
Hope it was new to you and you liked it - Insane in da Brain Russian ^^

This is Great and deserved to be stickied, wonderful, however, there's 1 peice of information I still want to know, and thats if Xbox players will be able to play with PC players, if so I'd almost buy it for PC, so I can play it for 6+ months, then switch to Xbox and trade all my weapons over, just because I prefer xbox controls better.

[Tulustan]

I love every post you make! It has got me back into Huxley and not the sad pissed person I was (about huxley and the very small amount of info or speculation aabout). Thank you and I hope you keep finding more stuff!

Nope, 360 and PC players will have barely any interaction (They mentioned 360 users may need to go over to the PC servers for some quests but that's about it) so...yeah, kinda boned the 360 on this one Webzen =/ good ****ing job.

[InsaneRussian]

Well they said that the players will be able to interact with eachother from xbox and PC in cities, guessing main cities. But i doubt that there will a character trasferer, all though items transfers seems to be quate possible to me.
Why not character transfers you might wonder... Cause the version will most likely be pretty different from each other outside the cities. But that's just guesses =)

OK, you have asked this same question in 3 threads and 2 of them you have double posted. Please refrain from repeating the same thing, and double posting.

No one knows about any cost, it hasn't been revealed yet.

[InsaneRussian]

Yeah would be smart to start to read the rules when you startout on a forum, then using the search butten and you would come to this conclusion, nobody here knows how much it will cost. If i haven't posted anything about it here nor have i earlier and i expose lots of info, then it mean nobody here knows, hope somebody, an insader will expose that info from Huxley team :D

Actually, it would probably hurt the game more if it was linked with the xbox, they actually did smart by doing this.

No offense xbox players, but a top of the line pc with unbelievable graphics can make that HS register, no problems there, that and the mouse and keyboard is way better then the confinement of the xbox controller. If they did link the two, xbox players would start complaining IMMEDIATELY, its because it would be far easier to play on a pc.

Personally, I prefer the controls of a console, the crosshair movement feels more constant and doesn't like to jerk around everywhere, and besides, they've already linked it up in shadowrun, and I haven't really heard any complaints about that.

[InsaneRussian]

Bleah... Again PC vs xBox, can we rather discuss the info i gathered? :P

[Felix12g]

Hehe, It's always back to the platform fights. Lets keep it on topic people, there's plenty of threads for pc vs xbox.

Thanks as always for the links.

[InsaneRussian]

I'll ask admin or moderator to delete this nonesence, this is very off-topics and lots of small liner = against the rules.

P.S: This post will be also delete since it will have no means if other will be deleted.
