Squad

I don't know if any of you ever played Battlefield 2: Project Reality?

If you did then this is a standalone spin off from the developers of PR, it uses Unreal Engine 4.

EDIT: This has had the greenlight!

Is this the one based on the ARMA3 engine?

Is this the one based on the ARMA3 engine?

OP said it is built with the Unreal Engine 4, ARMA 3 uses a new version of Bohemia Interactive's Real Virtuality game engine.

[Lowe]

Duh, my bad! I remember they were using it at one point, but didn't know they'd gone to UR4. Either way, looks ace.

Looks good

[DannyM]

It's had the greenlight, excellent, I'll try keep this post updated if I see any more developments but no promises

[DannyM]

Quite a long video here, but even if you watch the first 10 minutes, you'll get a good idea of what's coming

There is a Kickstarter campaign coming up for this, which I'm personally not too keen on, but I understand the premise for it. It should be live on the 26th May, I'll post a link up once it comes up.

The Squad development team is excited to announce that within the next 7 days we will be launching our Kickstarter Campaign!

This will be your opportunity to become a Founding Member of Squad and have an impact on the success of this project.

We have been very overwhelmed to date by the level of excitement and passion people have shown for the project and we hope everyone is ready to take this next giant step with us. It is going to take a lot of energy and we are relying on you guys to help us through this campaign.

If you ever wanted to scream, shout or generally be annoying about how much you want to see Squad as a finished game, now is the time. Please help us by spreading the word through all your various media channels and keep them linked back to our forums so we can help amplify their effectiveness.

For us this is the first chance to really bring this thing to life and possibly be given the opportunity to dedicate ourselves full time to making this Squad project a reality.

And just to get you guys warmed up, here are a list of our base donor tiers and approx how much you can expect them to cost. (all costs in USD)

Sooooo, the early access is on steam, a couple of us one here are playing, anybody else dived in yet? ITS ALPHA so a bit buggy and limited, but have had some of the best gaming moments in long time playing the last couple of nights. Very comms based, relies on good commanders, but loving it so far.

[Marenghi]

i'm interested but I've stopped buying into the whole early access thing so will be waiting to see how it develops. Besides £30 is a lot for an early access game

[Macman]

I've took the plunge!

Shall give my feedback on it shortly.

[Flibb]

it took a bit of fiddling for me to get it running happily on my AMD rig, just be aware before splashing the cash that it is an alpha at the moment. To be honest I like putting money in to things like this because I think the writers of the PR mod deserve some cash, and hopefully early cash will help in the development of the game.
