[PC]Project S1 Unveiling

[Loregoreth]

A project names S1 from Bluehole Studio return into players' view now. Its plan is scheduled to be unveiled by its publisher NHN on Jan.22rd, 2009. The Closed Beta Test of Project S1 will be launched in 2009 Fall. We'll bring you more details about it then.

The Bluehole Studio is made up with the team which develop the finial MMORPG of this world Lineage III. In last March the development process of Lineage III was interrupted by some reasons. So the Project S1 become the next expectant object. A special system "non-targeting system" is first employed in the game, That time your character will perform series of attack skills to monsters within the range of possibilities by shaking your weapons in hand, instead of choosing one target and click keys to attack.

So, my personal opinion is that this game will revolutionize MMORPGs. The development team from Lineage II is possibly one of the bests, and that fact that they no longer are with NCSoft is even better. Since this is blue hole's only project 100% of the staff will be dedicated to this, ensuring that it remains bot free.

Looks pretty nice.
I hate hearing about games this far ahead of time though...it just turns me off by the time it comes out.

That's whats happened between me and Fallout 3.

This looks pretty promising. Good luck to them with developing a realistic engine without the clicking to target system. A lot of games have tried to take a step away from the targeting system but just make the game more complicated in the end.
