Cornered Rat Software will soon be celebrating the 17th anniversary of World War II Online after originally releasing the game on June 6, 2001. Development continues for the venerable game with a new team, new goals and a robust development roadmap going forward.
Throughout the balance of 2018, WWIIO players will see the arrival of:
- the hybrid supply system
- 64-bit game application
- integrated VOIP
- new vehicles & production goals
- improvements to terrain
- a second team created to work on new assets
The plan going forward is to get more developers involved in using the Unreal Engine 4 with the eventual goal of creating WWIIO 2.0.
The process has started to get in Unreal Engine 4 to become familiar with its capabilities and workflows. These images represent basic demonstrations that deal with manipulating lighting and shadow effects, advanced modern texturing techniques, substantially higher poly meshes and asset placement within a scene. You'll notice our continued pursuit to realism in our characters, equipment and weaponry.
