Krasoten-it is

One of the whales, which keeps the game - graphics. Some might say that

this is not necessarily so, and give an example World of Warcraft, if not

ADOM, Dwarf Fortress, or some other examples of roguelike-masterpieces.

Agreed: the game can stay and other whales. But having a good graphics -

always a huge bonus for any project. Including online. Probably,

especially online. Experience has shown that the availability and

specificity of graphics depends presence among the players of the fair

sex. But it's still a significant portion of potential customers.

Aion-in with this lucky: he was born beautiful. Designers and artists

have tried over the fact that their child looked pretty good and could

compete with any other representative of the genre. At least in the

coming years.

Cry, baby, cry

Engine Aion is a sad name CryEngine. The reason is simple - it was

developed by Cry Tec for the game Far Cry. Sorry for the multiple

tautology. Built it was in 2002. Do not worry, please - for the past

eight years, as many times, carefully cultivated a file ", which was

originally based on a good billet engine turned the plane. You can

compare different parts of the Far Cry and Ncsoft Aion - and it's all one and

the same mechanism! Now engine is officially owned by Ubisoft, NCSoft and

only bought it to create their own games. And once again redesigned for

more efficient work in the MMORPG.

Among the "engine chip" - a good rendener almost complete seamless,

inverse kinematics, flexible physical system as a whole and many widgets

such as multi fogs. In general, it is clear that it was originally done

for the games that were supposed to make the player enjoy the scenery.

Revised - and characters.

Do artists and designers also grew out of the hands of the right places.

Characters Iona truly beautiful, armor and weapons can also fascinate. In

principle, Aion can bring the same claim, that at one time been accused

Lineage II. Like, a lot fanservisa lot of glamor and as a result - an

unrealistic view of how men and weapons. But, first, in the case of Iona

fanservisa still less (no fifth the size of Dark Elf busts by default),

and, secondly, the famous "rock stars" in this case simply underlines the

"angelic style." Like, flying winged creature in shining armor, and

should not be in the hands of a realistic replica of halberds Shooter

Grand Duchy of Moscow or Spanish falchiona.

And we would be in heaven Characters, Daewoo, cherubic. In the case asmodian -

demon, but it is not so important. Main - these winged warriors. Starting from the tenth

level of character development, you get to fly. It is significantly limited

compared to the Perfect World - the flight takes about a minute to

several minutes. But he was, is and remains one of the major "chips" of

gameplay, predetermining tactics of many battles. And it is in flight, as

well as in hovering mode, you can fully enjoy all the beauties of the

game.

For this alone is worth playing: under the wings of your character is set

such that not every kemeronovskaya Pandora will be able to compare.

Woods, fields, cities, parched desert, friends and foe - are you not WoW

(with all due respect to the latter), where a number of locations like an

unwashed pan. It wants to fly for real. NCSoft can thank not only for

what they have done the game with good graphics, but also because they

saw the possibility to enjoy this game's strong point in full.
