Het zou me niet verbazen wanneer Raven Software binnen de komende 2 maanden weer een nieuwe productaankondiging maakt. Naast Jedi Knight 2: Outcast begint ook Soldier of Fortune 2 zijn definitieve vorm te krijgen en mogen we beide games al redelijk binnenkort in de winkel verawchten

SLcentral besloot om de resterende tijd ook wat nuttig te vullen en had daarom een interview met Jon Zuk, de projectleider van het SOF2 project. Hierin worden wat vragen beantwoord over de multiplayer en AI van tegenstanders.SL: How has the AI improved since the original game and how does it handle the new random mi ion generator?Jon Zuk: The AI is completely new in SoF2, and has nothing close to the first game. The tricky thing now is that we can do so much stuff, that if a guy looks 'dumb', there could be dozens of reasons why. AI can take cover, lean around corners, crouch, rappel, jump, work in pairs, work in squads, leap over objects, etc. As you can see, they do a lot! We've had some i ues with the RMG because it's very open and it's random. We've been working on how AI can handle the player at a distance, since you'll encounter them that way quite a bit. Indoors though, they work pretty much the same, although our buildings are a little more simple and generic in the RMG.Het interview is samen met wat leuke plaatjes te bekijken (en lezen) op SLcentral.
