wade-newb 8 Share Posted March 30, 2014 <>_<> It... it cannot be. Are we witnessing a true rebirth of Ancaria? By the light of Lumen, I hope so! 1 Link to comment
SX255 630 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Still a day left on the counter. It’s great that the team is still around to make something. But they did lose the rights to Sacred series, and many of their other games are not as cool, so who knows what this will be. I'm confused... Insert more data/coffee 1 Link to comment
chattius 2,626 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Not only 10 years for Sacred1. It is also exact 5 years after the announce of a new special mount every class could use for Sacred2: http://forum.sacred2.de/showthread.php?t=63205 A long time ago the Seraphim banned bandits on an island in the far south which was full of t-energy pits. The island was forgotten. Recently fugitives reported about an island full of strange animals like giant jumping mice. The island suffers nowadays from terrible beasts called Hopplers, they destroy the soil soall what is left is desert. One real big and terrible hoppler is reported to live in a cave. The brave hero who is able to tame it can use it as a special mount. It will have a special attack at which it quickly hammers the ground with its fore paws stunning everything around. Sadly the new mount was nevery put into the game out of obvious reasons. Link to comment
Silver_fox 398 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Yes, the date... Makes me wonder if the devs are up for more than just an April Fool joke played on the fans. On the other hand, Frank Rentmeister was the guy who helped with CM patch development after Studio II went down, so we know he cares about Sacred series. 1 Link to comment
wade-newb 8 Share Posted March 31, 2014 :[ This is not going to be a good time for me if this is the first of the April Fools jokes I'm going to be subjected to. 1 Link to comment

SX255 630 Share Posted April 1, 2014 Glitch nr1: The website launch countdown timer went up to -2 hours. Great start guy Anyway, the website is all in German, so here is the Google translate results to English: The TeamAt this point, imagine our team members in the course of our project and tell you a little of what their responsibilities are in unsacred (working title). Our current development team is a mix of "old warriors" and new faces, which are connected by a common goal. Friends, companions, faithful fans of the first hour. We cover the entire development history of SACRED rich and thereby to the early beginnings of ARMALION, the game (the older ones among you will remember), from which then eventually became SACRED. From this age eg Franz Stradal, Marc Oberhäuser, Ralph Roder and Norbert Becker is one of the party. As consultants, we are old SACRED greats like Michael Bhatty to the side that will ensure that our new universe which is what you want as a player and fans and what we dream of for years. Everything will be fine! In contacts the team/company is called SparklingBit 3 of the names mentioned appear in the Epic quest (Marks wiki picture is corrupted) Link to comment
SX255 630 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The projectAt the very beginning is one of the greatest philosophers of his age. Darth Vader. To explain what you can expect at unsacred (working title), we strive for a quote of this incomparable visionary and Conqueror. "I find your lack of faith deplorable!" Welcome to unsacred (working title). We are pleased that you, from wherever you come from, you have found us. We are the ones who eventually made SACRED. Those who have registered significantly our concerns to SACRED 2 and did not want to hear - or could. That is past. Not always glorious, not always honorable. But the vision is never died. And in the years that have passed since then, we have a never lost sight of: a common idea. We call unsacred (working title) and it will be the game that we want to make and will make. For this we need your help. Live the dream with us, help us to let him become a reality. It may be that many of the sounds that we tell you about here, for one or the other almost fantastic. But to be honest: When we have taken SACRED attack, the voices sounded very similar. Prepare yourself your own to figure it out and come back. You will find at this point constant updates. The WorldThere is a story that was never told. Actually, it is the history to another story. But we can not mention at this point a good conscience and that has different reasons. Nevertheless, it has mostly just causes why things evolve as they evolve and if you take it exactly the entire history of civilization, in principle, is no more than a trail of blood. In retrospect, we will always wonder how it could come to that and why a paradise eventually turned into a bizarre circle of hell at the long end. Unsacred (working title) told you this story. You will a ... yes ... we call them ... find picture postcard at the beginning of unsacred (working title). A wonderfully ordered world, coexist harmoniously with the neighbors and represent in the peace, joy and pancakes general values. And then what? Then comes the drift. Why? Because rational beings will always tend to want to know more and thus gain power. In our case, you will experience the effects that are almost mandatory on the doorstep when magic is uncontrolled and used in blind faith. It is not the flood ... it is the drift! And the drift will change things. Sustainable change. Change forever. Imagine that your tears this awful kitschy postcard with their terrible idyllic motif into a thousand shreds. And someone else sets for you together again. Coarse and with many tape. THAT is the world as it will be after the drift! This world will develop in unsacred (working title) before your eyes. And this world needs heroes - urgently. We hope you are doing! At this point we will have in the future to tell you a few words about the world of unsacred (working title). Please come back soon.

SX255 630 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The gameplayUnsacred (working title) will be what it has to be - a classic action RPG with all that this genre really needs. This includes an in-depth, character-based skill system that includes not only weapons and combat techniques, but applies to different basic skills of your Characters. You will learn, develop yourself, improve, gain power and at the end you - under the influence of drift and your own experiences - to develop something that you had not even necessarily supposed to start. You will learn special moves, they forget and end up having skills, the continents will bring to the earthquake. You are experiencing a classic action RPG as it should feel: Challenging subject, action rich, perfectly controllable and constant developments. And before You may get involved as you possibly decisive factor in the fate of an entire world, you should first take your own concerns into their own hands and prove you in your personal campaign. The charactersHere you have to offer some surprises for sure unsacred (working title). It is not about to settle at the mercy of the rest of the world. The point is simply that there are characters for almost any of us who always wanted to see in a game. And there are 1000 reasons why they have it ultimately never made it there. Not everyone of them was understandable for ins. Now their time has come. Currently, there are six different characters for unsacred (working title) on the "menu". In some of them we will have to be developed as many details. We do of course also very happy to work with you. Let's talk about it if you want. We know it and would not even look different: At this point, a character would at least be due. Please wait one more day! He comes - and it's worth it! On 2.4. will you at this point to get to know our first Character closer! Link to comment
SX255 630 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The techniqueFor starters, just a few basics. We will be expanding this part continually and provide you with facts about the technology. Our feasibility analysis we have carried out conscientiously and the following features we can already now be announced: unsacred (working title) is presented in a classic isometric perspective as possible, using a modern graphics engine, which enables us to in a position to develop the game platform independent. It is proven to license technology, a proprietary development is not planned. The World in unsacred (working title) will be "seamlessly" and allows the player to move freely. The sectorization of the world construct is not visible here and there are no fixed limits or nachladende levels. My guess, the style is "Sacred 1 retextured". A good cheap solution. Link to comment
SX255 630 Share Posted April 1, 2014 The name And why is there always (working title) behind unsacred? Simple answer: Copyright! Of course unsacred (working title) would be our preferred name, but this probably would have still concerns are out of the way. But do not worry! No matter how the title is read at the end: you can learn it first hand and perhaps the final name even comes from you. Finally, we live in times where legends are born. And at the very edge: unsacred (working title) is also for us, the developers a chance to reinvent ourselves! Set up the past and the story to be told up to its beginnings. Link to comment
