Announcements

Join the ongoing conversation on Discord: https://discord.gg/w6Tpkp2

Please read the current update for instructions on downloading the latest update. Players with Mac versions of the game will not be affected, but you will have a slightly longer wait for your version of the new maps. Please make a copy of your character folder before running the new update, just to make sure you don't lose any of your custom work.

It looks like we can give everyone a list of minimum specs for running City of Titans. Please keep in mind that this is 'for now' until we are able to add more graphics and other system refinements. Currently you will need :
Windows 10 or later required; no Intel integrated graphics like UHD, must have AMD or NVIDIA card or discrete chipset with 4Gb or more of VRAM
At least 16GB of main DRAM.
These stats may change as we continue to test.

To purchase your copy of the City of Titans Launcher, visit our store at https://store.missingworldsmedia.com/ A purchase of $50 or more will give you a link to download the Launcher for Windows or Mac based machines.

Ascendant: Well, if the cat hadn't come along and eaten it all, I would have, Saul.

Warcabbit: Don't let Saul bamboozle you. As you can see, *I* ate *all* of the radioactive cereal, so Saul did *not* have *any* clean-up costs!

Who says we haven't?

While the Saul Rubenstein bit is a joke, it is only part of a video which is all made within UE4.

Here's a picture to better illustrate what may have been overlooked:

I know you guys have been working, and that considering the early stages you are still in (especially given the time setback UE4 gave you) there is probably very little to show, at least in terms of stuff we would be excited about. I am content to wait patiently.

But I do have to call you out Doc: that tunnel picture is the same one depicted at 0:45 in the Infiltrator demo ;)

*doh* uploaded the wrong one. Good catch.

We did repurpose assets for our needs, of course.

Full disclosure, it is a sneak shot of our tech demo level, which is using stock pieces while the art team work. As we have a license to stock assets from Epic and elsewhere, however, many will likely continue into the final product.

One disadvantage of our design is that in being so modular, it means there is little to show aside from individual pieces (wall segments, forearms, etc) until fairly late in development. I can't show off a player model, for instance, because we simply don't have the full catalog of pieces for it ready to show yet.

But the advantage you can see in the comparison between the first and second picture. For example, notice the lettering on the lefthand side. It is the exact same texture, but we can adjust its color to suit our needs between the two.

*edit* you realise this means you got a peak into the next update, right?

Kudos to you guys for the April fools joke! I thought it was hilarious! Don't listen to those fuddy-duddies that wanna give you a hard time because you chose the one day of a year for just such a thing to actually take things a little lightly. I've seen plenty of stuff so far that shows me that you guys are working hard to make this game shine brighter than its predecessor. So what if you took one day to have a little fun. Though developing and making a game is a wonderful thing, I think that it could get kinda Tedious. Have fun when you can is all I gotta say.

LOL I haven't a clue wth you all are talking about. I've been around a while, and sure, I don't get _every_ obscure pop-culture "in-joke", but this is way over my head. You guys are a riot.

By the way, anyone see that Blizzard did the same 4/1 (1/4 for some) joke for Diablo III? Let me find a link...
Here it is, with a working browser game even.
