Surprised this works at the moment.  Intel integrated gfx suck and always have.  I don't even think you could sell that laptop, bin it, can get second hand i7/2gb gfx for 200$ these days.

Probably worth a bit as scrap, specially to someone who scraps chips for the gold.

I'm a little bit later than on previous days, gang, but it's Sunday so hopefully you'll forgive me. 

 

Finishing off our tour of the seasons, we have a picture of Eldevin City by dawn:

It's getting on towards the end of summer, but just in case you were thinking of a holiday, why not try picturesque Lake Ghast? Just remember to bring plenty of sunscreen and additional armour. In fact, leave the sunscreen, take the armour:

We have more pictures to come tomorrow. Again, please let us know if there's any area in particular you'd like to see, and head over to our Facebook page where we're sharing these pictures as well and give them a like or share, if you're so inclined.

Garai Terraces has always been one of my favourite places, would love to see a shot of that!  :D

Despite the best attempts of the weather to slow us down or prevent us from working altogether, we have yet more screenshots for your delectation and amusement. 

 

Once again we have an as-yet unseen area, because we enjoy teasing you with upcoming content. Behold, Drateol's Laboratory. Please be advised that standard health and safety regulations do no apply within the confines of the laboratory, and Hunted Cow cannot be held responsible for any accidents including, but not limited to, chemical burns, disembowelment, decapitation, loss of limbs and/or death:

Somewhere more familiar and markedly less lethal is Roshaven. Found on the Isle of Nasaroth, this delightful little town contains several useful vendors and a place where you can rest your head without fear of having it separated from your shoulders while you sleep:

That's all for today, see you tomorrow!

Wrong answer :(

 

I've yet to see Hoof's bathroom, so I can't really comment. My gut tells me that's probably a good thing though.

Liking what I'm seeing especially with the weather effects.  Do that happen everywhere or is it just certain areas?

Although this is something we'd love to do, we just don't have the time right now. It would take some major time and effort to remake the player models.

 

This hardware update has all the artists very busy fixing up the world in preparation for it. Remember the game was made with top down view in mind, so with the new lower camera it exposes many issues, such as holes, gaps and viewing distance edges. These exist everywhere, so we're having to go through the entire world bit by bit. It's an exhaustive process, and likely won't be done until some time after it releases. There are also other technical issues brought on from changing to hardware that will require a lot of the artists time to fix.

 

The results I'm sure you'll agree will be worth it, but until we've fully caught up, as well as completing new content, upgrading things like the player model will have to wait. :)

Certain areas have their own unique atmosphere. Weather isn't a feature we've added yet, but it's something I've had on my wishlist for quite some time. Hopefully we can add that some day when we have a bit more time on our hands. ;)

Defiantly need better models understandable it will take time but don't put it on the backburner for too long you only get one chance to make a good first impression with new players

Neither rain nor floods nor extensive travel chaos can stop us from bringing you new screenshots, folks.

 

We showed you Othalo a little earlier in the thread, but we wanted to show it off to you again, this time from a different angle and location, the Othalo Pass: 

 

OthaloPass.jpg

 

We also have the coastal region of Brokenshore. If you're planning on swinging by here, you should probably wear some waterproof clothing. And armour:

Until tomorrow!

I just love this picture. For some reason, it kind of looks like acid rain to me :P

There's an excellent chance that this topic is going to quickly become obsolete, given that we just announced extended downtime tomorrow for the early release of the hardware client, but I'm going to go ahead and post up some pictures anyway, because I'm such a nice guy. 
 
I don't want to keep banging on about how bad the weather has been in our neck of the woods lately, so let me just say these last few words about it - it's been wet. Really wet. Also cold. 
 
So, as a kind of meteorological palate-cleanser, we decided to show you, not only more as-yet-unseen content, but some that's about as far from wet and cold as you can get. Feast your eyes on the Forgotten Ruins - a high-level area where the only moisture you're likely to find is your own vital fluids leaking from your broken, shattered corpse. Lovely. 
 
ForgottenRuins.jpg
 
That being said, we'd rather not leave you with such gruesome imagery, so we also have somewhere considerably less lethal - the town of Northam. Located to the North of Othalo, Northam appears to be a quiet, welcoming town. Look deeper, however, and you'll find dark secrets waiting to be uncovered.
 
Northam.jpg
 
Okay, maybe that wasn't much better than the first picture. Never mind, check back tomorrow and we'll maybe have some more screenshots for you. 
 
Then again, you may have some screenshots for us.
