Dear SWR Community,
Here's our Pre Beta introduction thread.
[NOTE]
We need to get it clear that Pre Beta doesn't have planet traveling, Beta has it.
[INTRO]
So the SWR development team has been working for a few months now on SWR Pre Beta. We know that progress is kind of slow. The reason why we won't update Alpha is because we want all the new and improved things to be in Pre Beta, so the community feels like it was worth the wait. Trust me, we have a lot in store.
[GAMEPLAY SYSTEM]
In Pre Beta we pretty much remade Alpha's gameplay system to be even better, smoother, and look nicer. We even added our own custom tool bar. We plan on making a better animation system for our melee weapons, for our current one is obviously crap.
[ROLE-PLAYING]
We would be taking a major step towards the role playing. In Pre Beta non pvp is the same as roleplaying. You would be able to actually shoot your gun as non pvp(you can't inflict damage obviously). We also would be having a button with a list of roleplaying animations (sitting, waving, laying, etc.). We would also have an action system in the chat, where you could express an action that you want to do.
[MAP]
We're working on a new map that is going to be 9 times bigger than our current Tatooine map. It wouldn't lag because we would be using chunk loading. MAYBE later down in SWR's development we would be adding other landmarks to the map (such as Jabba's palace, Sarlacc pit).
[GUNS]
We plan on having eight new weapons in Pre Beta. So far, we have completed five of them. The weapons will remain secret until Pre Beta is released.
[CUSTOMIZATION]
We have a load of new FREE customization features. We have already added two new races and also are going to add new civilian clothes and jackets. We plan on adding much more, and the good news is that they are all FREE.
[FACTIONS]
Most likely we will have a faction wipe, where we remove all factions. We will have more difficult requirements to become a faction. We will reduce the amount of duplicated factions and we will be more strict on factions that you cannot create.
Thanks for reading! :)
The release date for Pre Beta is unknown.
Best Wishes,
SWR Development Team |
