Exclusive Interview with Dynamedion

This is the first of a series of exclusive interviews by The Prophecy-Network with companies working with Reakktor in the development of Black Prophecy, Dynamedion, who composed and scored the soundtrack for Black Prophecy, is the first of these interviews.

Dynamedion worked with Reakktor in the development of the soundtracks used for Black Prophecy, if you have watched the two official trailers then you will have heard some of Dynamedion's work. Reakktor also contracted Dynamedion to work on their previous MMO, Neocron 2.

Dynamedion was founded in 2001 by Tilman Sillescu and Pierre Langer, two composers with university degrees in music. With a steadily increasing number of contracts and growing customer base it has since become the leader in soundtrack composition and sound design on the continental European computer game market. Over recent years, Dynamedion has worked on over 160 projects in the video game, TV and film industry and been showered with numerous prizes and music awards. In 2005 Dynamedion produced highly successful, first benchmark live orchestra recordings for a German game soundtrack. With numerous further orchestral productions for the video game industry, Dynamedion has earned itself a reputation for unsurpassed quality and integrity in this area.

Gameplay speculation

Following on from the previous speculation about the factions players will be interacting with in Black Prophecy, this time I intend to try and provide the best picture possible of what the actual gameplay of Black Prophecy will be like and clear up some common misconceptions.

First off I’d like to clear up some common confusion. Comparisons to EvE are completely worthless, everything seen so far suggests that Black Prophecy will in fact have more common with WoW than EvE, although very few similarities to both. Planetside is probably the closest comparison in MMO space, although comparisons with Reakktor’s previous game, Neocron would not be entirely unreasonable. In terms of gaming as a whole, MechWarrior 2: Mercenaries is probably the closest analogue you can find for BP, for reasons that will become apparent as we move through the article.

Dev Watch 24/05/2009

So, what have the developers of Black Prophecy seen fit to impart to us this week? The short answer is not very much, but then that isn't the same as nothing, is it?

The biggest news to report this week is the interview with the German arm of Eurogamer.Mostly we hear about Reakktor as a company here, but with regards to game details, we hear that skills will be requirements only, not having any additional effects. We also learn (on the corporate side) that Black Prophecy currently has a team-size of 39. It's not entirley clear whether this includes people like Kirk Lenke or Snowcrash.

Beyond that, all the forums have to tell us is about the still undecided nature of the servers, although the hint is to expect regional servers and a comment about cutscenes that should shock noone.

In two weeks time, E3 will have been and gone - will be interesting to see if anythig comes from that. See you all next week!
