The core/guts of Stormgate looks good.

So 3v3 pvp isn't even planned to be in the game at launch. Wasn't that one of their selling points?

i thought so as well. you do have to listen very closely though. For example, the rollback feature is not guaranteed to be in the game despite promising early results. Tim Morten spoke very carefully and cautiously in his interview.

a tough challenge for both Zerospace and Stormgate is that the encumbants , SC2. AoE2, and CoH2 can all run on potatoes.

Stormgate is going to require a half way decent machine.

tha lancer and the marine looks too similar with their guns. Also, the color saturation is too low imo

yeah everyone seems to agree that you can't tell the units apart right now, especially in a fight.

Samwise Didier just quit Blizzard. I wonder if he is under a non-compete?
Bring him in!
Dude is an unrecognized artistic genius.

Dreamhack ft. Stormgate is starting soon:

Should have Artosis and Tasteless as casters, with TLO, Mana, and Moon playing.


Watching this so far visual calrity definitely seems to be a big issue. I couldn't tell what was going on, the colours are so desaturated I couldn't work out whose units were whose.


Totally agree. I think they need to saturate the colors more to show a greater, more bold, contrast between teal/gray and purple/gray, and then also get rid of the neutral secondary colors for each unit. Less gray for each unit, and more purple (or teal).

I doubt he's on a non-compete and I'd be interested to see if he'd at least consult.

The catapult thing seemed interesting. Might be the first time I said that about Stormgate.

The showmatch was probably the best Stormgate gameplay I have seen so far. With a bit more visual clarity it could be decent.

no, i'm watching teh detail in the movement and attacks along with the environment detail.
The GPU can't be a potato.

A separate thread handles the network/RTS activity; I think its called `snowplay`. UE5 uses multiple threads already.

It reminds me a lot of a neutral MOBA lane-pushing unit.

I think Artosis and Tasteless are doing a pretty solid job of casting the games (I'm able to follow most of the time, despite not having the Stormgate vocabulary down yet and despite the desaturated colors). I also think that Monk is doing a good job of explaining aspects of Stormgate during the interviews.

i like Matt Weber's laissez faire philosophy regarding how Frost Giant will manage competitive play.

Moon's fiend attack on that ?shrine? to target down the main building was pretty awesome.

Edit: It was actually Mana, not Moon. They messed up the names/colors in game one.

On the plus side those should be pretty easy fixes Id imagine

I think the models look reasonably distinct up close, but at a distance less so, I don’t think them all being similarly sized, or a lot of them, really helps either. But that would be an easy tweak

I have only caught snippets so will re-watch, looks promising. A lot of gaps in visual clarity will be mitigated when more of us get to try the game out too.

Elongated engagements, something I’ve longed for in lieu of ‘terrible terrible damage’, nice to see

Moon called GG despite winning the whole first game?

EDIT: Mana was the one in complete control, and who won that game. They miscolored the two players. Mana wrecked Moon in game one, not the other way around lol.
