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.

Is there an updated roadmap and timeline for the game?

Is there an updated roadmap and timeline for the game?

Also is there budget/burn rate info available?

I check in every few months and I'm pleased to see that progress is being made, but I am wondering when there will be something tangible/playable to show for it?

The latest word I've seen

The latest word I've seen about anything "deliverable" is the possibility we'll get to play with some version of the Avatar Builder by the end of the year and then maybe some Alpha version of the game itself by maybe summer of next year. Of course there's really nothing official about what I just said - those estimates seem to be the best working ideas based on everything the various Devs have alluded to here.

As far as "budget" matters go the only thing we know is the same thing they've been telling us for a while now which is basically they got enough money from the Kickstarter to purchase all the software licenses they needed for development and that they don't really need much beyond that for now. There was recent talk about a new fundraising effort but it was apparently put on hold because of something Valance Online was doing. This seems to prove (at least to me) that gathering new money is not an extreme priority for them at the moment.

If you look at the announcements they have had "Breakthroughs" in the art and costuming departments. That is an encouraging sign.
and Warcabbit found the one ring, It was in the Shire this whole time...under our very noses.

Warcabbit asked for a special team.
"You have my crowbar!" pledged Tannim.
"And my Antlers!" said War Moose.
"And My Wool!" said Death Sheep.

Heard about this project for some time now, I recall the successful kickstarter (iirc).

The character creator by the end of the year? Wow, sounds great; hopefully there are some options for us to play with. In Valiance Online, there is not much available in that creator (Not to knock it, I am pulling for VO and CoT).

A detailed creator would surely get the public pumped.

As a child, I thought my name was handsome, cause that is what everyone called me.

$678,189 pledged of $320,000 goal, so not quite 212% funded. I suppose you could call that reasonably successful. ^_^

The latest word is that they're hoping to have an open beta ready to go sometime in the second half of 2016.

Dang, they must be trucking along then.

Beta usually indicates a near finish product.

Woooow, I truly thought VO will be the first out, guess it could be CoT. VO does not appear to be anywhere near a Steam Early access release, let alone beta.

I seen the videos on YouTube; so I assume that is how our environments would look now? Looks great, wonder what is left for them to do, in simple, non-developer terms that is, haha.

I just hope they release a detailed creator, this could be a first impression of sorts, chance to wow people.

I know individuals whom don't even play CO, but hope on the creator and stand in the city. If that creator is deep, I expect a huge following, as if CoT does not already have one.

Dates are subject to change, that is cool, i understand, but i am encouraged by their progress, and they appear to be striving for that beta release.

They are doing a great job, judging by the videos.

If when you say "detailed creator" you mean a "character/costume creator" then yes MWM does actually plan to have a standalone costume creator app out long before the beta of the actual game. If we're lucky we may get the first versions of such a creator by the end of this year.

IIRC VO got the greenlight on Steam, am I wrong?

It would be nice to get another SOTG update but what I would REALLY like is a State of the Avatar Builder Update, I just really want the AB to come out and am really interested to see what the status is. But I'll take whatever updates they give me and be happy about it =3

Everything we've seen so far has been a test environment. That's not to say it's not indicative of what we can expect, but none of it is Titan City.

I, for one, would be happy just to get another peek at more of the Mogul buildings, if they have art for any that weren't in the one update that had that.

I would also like to see some more Mogul buildings, I am waiting anxiously to do my own and would like to see what other people went with! The ones in that update looked amazing!

I asked at the beginning of August. That was 6 weeks ago. Still haven't gotten an answer.

Off-topic Redlynne, I recall that verbogeny quote from a Monastery long ago and far away, is that where you picked it up?

Never posted there myself, but I did enjoy reading archives of the posts and quotes (which now sadly seem to be gone). ;_;

Scary Devil Monastery stuff indeed ...

A periodic comment on a timeline would be nice...atleast to maintain interest. I still have hope and I'm glad to see continued posts. However, something official would be nice. Of course, we would all understand (hopefully) if they say 2nd quarter of 2016 and it ended up being 3rd quarter, but atleast we would have something to look forward to. Tentative timeline please! Yes, a chance to tinker with the creator would pacify me...probably for quite a while. Anyway, good luck guys. I'll be checking in.

I do think that (** if **)

I do think that (** if **) after the original deadline is missed there should be a new timeline created. It is only fair to give a new estimate whether it's just guesses or hard facts. I think the last place the players need to be is in the dark, unless of course we are playing the game in it :D I think a big factor of why things are so nice right now is that we are still within the timeline time frame, but if a timeline is not given and there is no light at the end of the tunnel, people will lose faith a lot easier. If you don't give a new timeline, I really hope that is not the case, but just a request from a lowly player, please give an updated timeline :)

Well, the original dates were 'just guesses' after all. A lot of 'Stuff' has happened in the intervening time. I'm not sure of the value of new 'just guesses'. Really, it happens when it happens and I'm sure we'll be invited to beta-test things, when there's something worth testing.

Be Well!
