Thomas: Again well said I want the same
-----Original Message----- From: gamers-boun...@audyssey.org [mailto:gamers-boun...@audyssey.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: Saturday, December 26, 2009 12:06 PM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] The future of Blastbay Studios Hi Philip, Well,keep in mind you are talking to an FPS purest hear so any opinion I give is going to be pretty bias to other opinions and views. That's not to say I wouldn't enjoy a game like you describe, but by simplifying the game it feels like a cheat to me and is unrealistic. I guess what is important to me as a gamer is realism, full 3d movement, and games on par with mainstream FPS titles. I'm sorry to say if you make it so the player can only go north, south, east, and west without 360 degrees of movement that's not going to satisfy me. However, your the developer here so you do what you feel comfortable with. Cheers!
