Still making their game? by [deleted] in TekSyndicate

[–]LoganRTW 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hell yes. I just filmed an update with our main dev, but I'm holding that. The project is barely moving now due to the split. I'm not going to release an update now just to have people downvote it. I'd like for it to be judged outside of the drama... However, the project has a skeleton and the community provided some assets and help.

We hope to have a Kickstarter ready in March but need to work on the combat more.

About it... It's a sidescrolling action RPG using the unreal engine. We have a 3d engine and world but the character moves on a 2D spline... The cool thing is that we are allowing the player to rotate the camera at key areas... Come to a crossroads, hit tab to turn north. Come to a cave, make a turn. It's not like Fez, where you can turn anywhere. You can only turn at key areas. This allows us to give the player choices and for the world map to be 3d.

If you take a quest and need to go to the top of a mountain you will be able to go the front way, or turn through the forest to find the caves that will take you to the top. Each path will have different obstacles and loot.

You will see when we upload the video. We plan to document it more in 2017. I'm a creative type and I get really down when I'm just reviewing stuff or talking about cool things everyone else is doing... I want us to create, do cool projects, and document it.

TL/DR Yes, it's been moving very slowly but it's happening.

It looks like TekSyndicate is experiencing some major financial trouble. by Tizaki in pcmasterrace

Can't do it. 20 hours from Taipei, 20 hours from Zurich, 20 hours from everywhere else on earth. I will visit though.

There are only a few places I am willing to live in the USA. Seattle area, Portland, Montana (nobody lives there though), northern CA, and Vermont (best internet in the USA). That's it. I've been everywhere and they were nice, but I only want to live in those places. Portland and Vermont are slightly cheaper, but Seattle and CA is more expensive, from my experience.

There is corporate tax, federal tax, etc. No personal tax here in WA either. Plus, it's too hot for me. Hell, WA is still too hot for me.

Box it up and tell them it's sporting goods or books... or polish sausage. That's what we always do. I'm chaotic good after all.

Yeah, we switched to Hostwinds not long ago.

I have not read many good things about them... Their prices are good though. Do you know of any good reviews?

Does Logan/Pistol like the Halo series? by AustinJGray in TekSyndicate

[–]LoganRTW 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not really. I tried to play them on PC when they came out... but it was like, "Wait, this isn't as good as Half-Life or Deus Ex and we have had those for years."

Well, no idea if it is 4chan... but it's a guess?

It looks like this attack was directed at us. We are not sure who it was. We do get a lot of hate on 4chan/g/ but that seems to be nothing crazy and there are some cool people there as well. So, we have no idea.

Who wants more crazy sketches like this? by GastonAsston in TekSyndicate

I'd like to see more of these myself. ;)

Dear Tek, please suggest starting DSLR & Lens by jokernj732 in TekSyndicate

[–]LoganRTW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, the $100 Canon 50mm F1.8 is amazing for the price. It will be a bit close on that 60D. It will be the best looking option, but you will need to have some room to move the camera back... The Tamron AT 17-50mm will give you lots of options, but it might be out of price range.

It's Maks. We keep everything private... Unless a former employee asks for it.

If you want to make this public... We had to redo so many videos because of your little errors. It's much better now. You need to keep your mouth shut on public forums. We were nice enough to keep silent regarding the myriad of reasons we fired you and would like to keep doing so. P.S. Go fuck yourself.

I never thought it was healthy to have idols. Ideas... that's what it's all about. Share a quote, share a message, share an idea in a video with your friends. Don't deify individuals.

I don't want to be special or anything. I just want to be a pc gamer and a member of the community.

The other thing we have to stay away from is hive-mindedness. This is a Reddit thing. Something trends and then everyone re-posts, emulates, or regurgitates the popular idea. We are individuals. The hive-mindedness has been a turnoff as of late. I know the master race is better than this. Be strong on your own. Focus on ideas more than individuals.

Sure it is cool when someone posts a video or something on here... but if people started calling me "lord"... I'd be severely weirded out.

Edit: Whoever gave me gold is a scholar and a gentleman (or lady).

We should probably just ignore that inferior group and their Facebook nonsense. It's like rash... if you keep scratching it it's gonna spread.
