My name is Norman and I'm developing for many years strategy games and business applications for the software market. In the days when the first real First Person Shooters (FPS) were coming up, my frieds and me were starting to play them almost every Saturday in my development studio. With the large number of PC's there, connected to a network, we played such games in a LAN party the whole night.
Unfortunately for us, there was a major drawback with all these FSP games: they are limited to cuted, short actions without really strategic concepts such as resource management or offensive planning. Additional medium or longer-term based gameplay for LAN partys was not possible.
One day there came the idea for a PC game with elements from my previous, successful strategy games, Axis and Allies and various other games in combination with first-person shooters like Battlefield 1942 or Call of Duty.
With WW2 Total it will be possible to plot strategic decisions about attacks and defences, resources management, researchs and politics, while you could fight with your own armed and moved units in FPS battles.
And if you like, you could play long term games, continuing the LAN party or online game via internet the next day or week. All this is done in 3d graphics, with a large variety of units and later up to four or eight players in a LAN party (local network) or a online game via internet !
Many years of work and high development costs from more than 1.5 million US Dollars - only until today - were spent to realize this dream, and now the progress it is already so far, that I'm happy to present the first parts of this project to the gaming community.
Also, the proposals and ideas of the WW2Total community will be implement into future versions of this PC game and you will become support directly from the developer.
And to the end a short note, because unfortunately I had to make the experience that also in the Internet there is a minority of fantasists and dreamers: we are a small team with still a relatively small budget. The main concern is therefore an ever-advancing game project with an outstanding and perfect gameplay - and not a one-time mainstream project, where dozens of developers are coming and going, as in the commercial game industry. Who is just expecting a high-tech shooter with all possible or impossible effects, thump-thump and the last high-end engine, is here definitive at the wrong place !
This sentences have to be written here, because that no misunderstandings or unnecessary and unjustified mainstream criticism will occur.
But of course, I would be happy if you would like this unique game concept, which will be develope especially for a LAN party or online gaming via internet. Please support the continous developing work by purchasing a license key for the Gold edition. Any support by purchasing a license key allows us to spent more time in the development of this strategy game, because we also have to pay for our rent, food and especially coffee !
Thank you !
Best Regards
