EIEF: Bet On Soldier - Jason Harman

[Steve]

While at EIEF, Nick caught up with Jason Harman, Technical Manager for Digital Jesters, the publishers of the up-coming Bet On Soldier game.

From the outset, Kylotonn have always aimed BoS to run high-end machines as can be seen from the highly detailed graphics, implementation of the Ageia PhysX engine and the support for AMD 64 bit processors. Seeing the Ageia PhysX engine in action is really something quite impressive and Digital Jesters are keen to point out that Bet On Soldier is the first game on the market to support the upcoming PhysX cards that will be out in a few months time. To get the most benefit from the 64 bit extensions, players should have a copy of Win XP 64 installed as well… so the game really is aiming at high end stuff.

There were a few trailers floating around and i saw it on TV a while ago. Looks truly amazing, its kinda cool cross over of buy/upgrade games and an FPS, such as in between rounds you gotta buy armour and health, ammo and bigger guns.

It certainly affects the gameplay as you look for creative ways of killing the enemy to make more cash than just shooting them in the guts... and you have to balance your cashflow with your situation... spend too much during a mission and the tougher weapons you'll need for later on will be out of your price range.
