I've looked through the threads, I can't believe nobody posted this;

Atriach News (on their web site) http://www.atriarch.com/news/news.html is now updated weekly!

Seems at the end of every Tuesday, they post a new news update!  Checkitout!

And while I missed the stratics chat (7/7/04) Atriarch devs have kept the Tuesdays updates coming!

We have this from Todays (just the highlight here);

world building tools... content templates: This past week, we have been working at putting together templates for world builders.   Up to this point most of our focus has been on getting features into the game and focusing on the technology.

 

We can only hope they keep going!!

It is great to be getting regular news, isn't it? I tried to get to the dev chat, but ended up at my sister-in-law's house instead. Bummer.

And another late night Tuesday update!!

Native's (NPC) Knowledge Base: Have you ever noticed how some game characters can give you detailed instructions on how to make a full set of armor using only a spoon and a loaf of bread while other game characters just stare at you dumbly without blinking? 

For more info on smart NPCs, you'll need to check out the Atrarch web site

Atriarch Development Update

new Assess Skill added:  We implemented a new Basic Skill called, Assess.   This new skill is an all-purpose capability that allows characters to watch, observe and notice things about creatures and things in the world.  Then the Character can use that information to their benefit in the world.

I am looking forward to seeing some new screenshots. Screenshots make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I like to see what they are doing and what the game world looks like.

<heavy sigh> Here it is, Wednesday, September 1st to be exact. Atriarch has promised us regular Tuesday updates. One was late, due to weather conditions that only Zues could love... the last was a teaser... and this one... is MIA

Oh! What to do, what to do! I'll keep checking, maybe Atriarch is once again the victem of a cruel hurricane, or perhaps, the devs are actually to busy to post...

My faith is not shaken!! I will be strong! They will come through!
I'll just drown my impatience in WoW until Atriarch comes up with something for me to drool over...

Cut & Pasted from the news... No screenshots. Yet. No substantial news about the state of the game either.

Atriarch Development Update

This week's update is spawned (bad pun intended) by an article written on the controversial subject matter of whether or not open source is an advantage in game development, particularly for AAA games. Our position is yes it can be!

World Fusion's Chief Architect, (aka: Arc) explains, "Whether are not there are few major game titles built *entirely* with free/open source software, there is quite a bit of it going into parts of game engines". (Atriarch for example.)

This leads us to to answer a common question emailed to us all the time about Atriarch's development... what tools and technology are used to develop Atriarch? Do we practice what we preach? Do we utilize Open Source? The answer is a resounding yes. And not just for the sake of it, but because in many cases it offers value to us above and beyond what a proprietary solution offers.

A World Fusion Engine page has been added to our FAQ section which lists the tools and technologies we utilize to develop Atriarch.

(Sorry folks, new screenshots have been trumped by the Open Source debate. We will post some in a couple weeks as soon as we finish our current cycle of development.)

Please note that since we will be away at the Austin Game Conference, there will be no dev update next week. The next update will be the week of September 13th. See you then!

Looks like Tuesday updates are now going to be Thursday updates... but if thats regular! Woot!

Open Source... so, now my question is, will Atriarch be open source? Allowing other folks to run Atriarch worlds?!

Thanks for the update! ::::20::

hmm.. Sept 2nd was last update.. I was thinking they were located in the south somewhere, as they had mentioned a prior update being postponed due to bad weather, a hurricane, however, I just checked (something I should have done long ago) and World Fusion is located in California... and were not experiencing any bad weather, at this time... so... I'm wondering what happened to our updates? ::::16::

PLease stop posting, none care anymore. Atriarch will be continually updated for about 5 months, then dropped for a year, then revisited again.

 

 

It will be like that till the end of time.

My god.    I can't believe this game is still alive and kicking.   How on earth can it stand a chance?   How long has it been in developement now?    I remember reading about his game and viewing screen shots waaay back in '01.   We are on the verge of '05 people.   Let go.   Its over.  

I have seen the Arctic Circle... And it is round.
