Any Bot Support in Prey?

TG-We've actually stated this a few times in other forums. No, there will be no bots in Prey. I argued to include them pretty strongly early on, but the issue is mainly one of the enormous AI headache. Bots are difficult enough to program for a regular FPS game. The Doom3 codebase didn't support bots, so we had no code to use as a basis, meaning we'd have to start from scratch. Neither Doom3 nor Quake IV had bots. Now we could have started from scratch to add them, but it's not a trivial feature; then add on top the fact that we have gravity and wallwalk (which are separate features since they both treat gravity differently), portals and spirit walking and it becomes an AI nightmare to code for. It would be doable if we put lots of resources to it for a fairly long time, but I think even then they'd be subpar due to all of the thinking outside of the issues of just a standard fps shooter they'd have to be doing. UT class bots would be outstanding, but that's a huge order considering how our features affect the standard way of playing.

 

We decided early on that single player was the focus of Prey and that we'd provide as robust a DM experience as possible without bots. I know you want to hear, "Oh yeah, we've got it nailed" but the reality is that we had to pick our battles, and we knew early on bots was one that would consume many resources for a result that would probably be subpar.

 

How does it scale on different hardware?

GB-I can play Prey on a 1900xtx, AMD 4400+ at 1600x1200 with all the features on.

 

We have people at the office play and finish it on as low as a 2.5ghz, 9800, and even one on a 2.0Ghz/9700Pro. So, the game scales pretty well.

 

Clearly there is a midrange, probably starting aroung 2.8Ghz and a 9800. Higher end video cards will make the game scream.

 

Steam-like Activation process?

TG-You need internet just for install. After that you can play it offline. You will need it each time you install (or reinstall) so the master server can authenticate the installation.

 

I'm not sure what Steam's current offline mode is like. You don't have to actively do anything, and you won't automatically log on each time you play. I can tell you that much. I hope that helps. If not, I'll do my best to answer.

 

Vista Support?

TG-Actually we're working with Microsoft on Vista compatibility. We will support the final release of Vista with Prey, most likely as a patched version down the road, but we will not officially be supporting Vista beta. (That doesn't mean it won't work at all, just that we won't be supporting the beta officially).

 

I know the engineers have been messing with the beta, but I can't answer any questions on it as it's pretty low on the priority list at the moment.

 

More about Widescreen support

TG-We support widescreen. Just choose 4:3, 16:9, or 16:10 from the menu and it adjusts to your display. The game also remembers your option settings. We've made other changes as well, but you'll see those soon enough.

Prey Demo Preview

 

Conclusion

 

If the rest of Preyʼs single player campaign is as entertaining and unique as the demoʼs first five levels, the long, long wait for this title may be worth it. Once again, we have not revealed everything you will see and do in the demo to keep the surprise up so on Wednesday night/Thursday morning (depending on your time zone) you can safely download it without having to worry that you already know everything about it. I think its an excellent way to introduce the game to its intended audience and makes me want to play the full version ASAP to find out what happens next. In the end thatʼs exactly what the best demos are supposed to do.

Σαν παιχνιδάκι όπως είπε κ ο little είναι όντως μια από τα ίδια, δεν είναι άσχημο.

Οverdriverhome σκέψου έχω Bartonάκο, 1Gb μνήμη κ την Sapphire X800Gto κ στα 1024 παίζει full.To mp να περιμένουμε κάτι από unreal να φανταστώ???

Little full tearing εννοείς τα κύματα που κάνει πάνω στην οθόνη εννοείς λόγω refresh rate?

Αν μη τι άλλο μετράει άσχημα το Prey (αν και στα γραφικά φέρνει στο Doom3,είναι σίγουρα πιο φωτεινό πάντως :P). Δεν έχει ιδιαίτερες απαιτήσεις και επιτέλους το demo βγήκε νωρίτερα από την κυκλοφορία του παιχνιδιού. Εύγε ρε Human Head :)
