Die Seite Loaded INC hat ein sehr interessantes Interview mit Harvard Bonin, seines Zeichens Producer von Zero Hour geführt.
Hier ein kurzer Auszug:
Loaded INC:
You mention the new feature of the Generals Challenge. How will this actually work?Harvard Bonin:
Generals Challenge is another way that we think all players alike will be able to squeeze more value out of the expansion. Money is tight these days so it’s important to us that player feel like they get a lot for their cash. Generals Challenge is a solo play mode set up a bit like a VS. mode in a fighting game. We’ve included 9 new General Armies that you can fight as. The Generals have their own „home“, like in a fighting game, and you pick a General that will fight on your enemy’s turf. The enemy General will taunt & provoke the player to „bring it on“. Once you beat one you move onto the next.Loaded INC:
Who or what are the ‚9 distinctive armies ‚ players will be able to control?Harvard Bonin:
Examples are Dr. Thrax, a maker of an extra potent Gamma Toxin and General Granger, a general that uses airpower above all else. Each General and their army has a few special units particular to them. The economies, build times, etc are designed to encourage the player to travel down a specific strategic path. We felt that players usually use specific strategies (like „turtling“) so we created Generals Armies that allow the player to more easily follow a preferred road.
