I love all the CG stuff you guys make. But I want to see actual game play, Since thats what really matters here. if its like a bloody card game i'm out..sorry I hate those games.
U wil know in the summer : pQuote:

Definitely not. We have worked very hard to make it look and feel like a real MOBA. :) We don't have gameplay footage, but there are some pre-alpha screenshots to look at in this Gamespot article: http://www.gamespot.com/articles/for.../1100-6425516/Quote:

It is definitely in 3D, but without an "in match" leveling component. There are skill trees behind the scenes but from the start of the match everyone has access to all of their abilities and the timer starts counting down the 5 minute match.Quote:

On a related note, there are many of us who are still 100% dedicated to AL development, so we're still very actively working on it for sure :)
Edited for clarity related to leveling in this context
At first, I was thinking that this would just be another MOBA, but five minute matches, no items, no creeps and jungle sounds sort of intriguing. There's a fat chance that it might bomb to traditional MOBA players, but a fast paced MOBA sounds like a nice mixture of PL and MOBAs.
1. Is there gear, as in most MOBAs?
2. How will gear be acquired, if there is any, considering there is no leveling, or farming?
3. Maybe I'm not understanding completely, but with no levels, can a noob (someone who just started) who knows their way around a skill set be able to match up against a highly skilled player who's been playing for months?
4. I know there is a limit of people who do Pre-Alpha, but when will Alpha/Betas be available?
No gear. You start out with your full 5 abilities, including your Ult.Quote:

We'll matchmake according to ranks and tiers, so your L1 Avalanche would never fight a highly skilled player until you work your way up.
We'll be doing Alpha after SXSW, so stay tuned!
Hey JustG, I've got a question.
So you've stated that you can level up your hero and customize it along the way. Is this like a traditional MMO leveling system? Each time I level, I'm granted a point I can add into [X] skill?
If so, what happens if I try to play a new character, while still sticking with my old party? Do I have to grind all the way up? Or can I just pop in and play with them?
For example, let's say I've been playing Woshu and it's level 10. Everybody in my party is level 10 Bjorn, Scorch, etc. I want to switch to Avalanche because I'm getting bored.
Now, if I'm a level 1 Avalanche playing with my L10 friends, is there a chance I'll go up against a L10 Avalanche and be at a severe disadvantage? Or does level not affect strength, but rather become an indicator of how skilled you are at the character?
I certainly don't wish to grind levels in a MOBA.
