BizzarePony 199 October 30, 2011 Share October 30, 2011 Is there an estimated release date? Because I need to practice my fighting game skills: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoop 8,382 October 30, 2011 Share October 30, 2011 No. They haven't given any estimations or projections, which in my eyes is a good thing; I'd rather they spend the time needed to get the game nice and polished rather than rush through things to meet some arbitrary deadline.

Zoop 8,382 November 2, 2011 Share November 2, 2011 New video released, character trailer for Twilight Sparkle. The game has undergone a lot of polish since the live stream, combos seem to flow better, and you can catch a glimpse of Twilight's magic system. Also, Pinkie Pie is featured in the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxFnpBh22Sg Additionally, the Mane6 site has undergone a significant update. I am so bloody hype.

Doctor XFizzle 8,647 November 2, 2011 Share November 2, 2011 (edited) Game looks amazing but we already knew that. Yay for hearing Twilight's theme. It's a quality piece of music, just not my type. Applejack's theme is still #1 to me and I'm looking forward to hearing the other 4. Edited November 2, 2011 by DJ XFizzle Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Viscra Maelstrom 3,717 November 2, 2011 Share November 2, 2011 This might be the only fighting game I'll ever consider getting. Not a big fan of fighting games in general, but this looks just awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Discordian 5,996 November 25, 2011 Author Share November 25, 2011 Awww, Zoop beat me to the Pre-Alpha. Oh well, it's definitely looking even better. We even got to see some Pinkie attacks and a Hyper Attack. <3 Loooove it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoop 8,382 November 25, 2011 Share November 25, 2011 Awww, Zoop beat me to the Pre-Alpha. Don't feel bad. I'm entirely too hyped for this game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pryus 1 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 (edited) Needs to have a character creation! Edited November 26, 2011 by Pryos Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoop 8,382 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 Needs to have a character creation! Q: Well, then. Will there be a custom-pony maker so we can add our own OCs? A: Creating a viable custom character maker isn’t as easy as it sounds; It is NOT only creating a “blank” pony and tackling a custom palette on top; It requires far more resources into developing and technical creation than we can invest on it, and the end result would most likely end up being unsatisfactory, both for the players and the Devs… Not to mention it’d push back our Live release to end of season 3, or so. Q: Can we do our own modifications to the engine? A: No. A modified game will automatically change the version number, likely breaking some functions (such as online versus). Modded games will also not be supported for bugs and not able to participate in official events. Q: Why not; What could be bad with modding the engine? A: Balance issues, mostly. We’d not want people messing with the game numbers to “cheat” online. We know it isn’t everypony intention when thinking of game modding, but we’d not want to risk a few people spoiling the fun for everyone. Q: Are you open source?, Will you be releasing the game assets once you're done with them? A: Sorry. No. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BlazingDawn 52 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 According to my estimates by their progress, the game should be out in April-June if they are actually fast. I also believe that this is a perfect way of getting more bronies, although fighting does go against pony ideas. I also think they should add transformations to some characters =P.

Pryus 1 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 I know, I read it, lol. But it still needs to have a character builder Only 17 playable characters online will get old quickly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoop 8,382 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 Only 17 playable characters online will get old quickly. Tell that to Street Fighter 2. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slendermane 472 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 According to my estimates by their progress, the game should be out in April-June if they are actually fast. I also believe that this is a perfect way of getting more bronies, although fighting does go against pony ideas. I also think they should add transformations to some characters =P. I think there could be some really cool transformations, even though I doubt it will happen. Twilight could burst into flame, Pinkie could become Pinkamina (Party of one, not Cupcakes), Luna could become Nightmare Moon, and more. I wonder what super power attacks (like final smashes in Smash Bros) there will be? We already know Twilight will glow and lose control of her magic, like when she got her cutie mark, but what about other characters? I think it is a safe bet that Rainbow Dash will have a Sonic Rainboom and Fluttershy will call animals to aid her. Applejack might call in help from her family. I'm not sure about Pinkie Pie and Rarity. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KPM 288 November 26, 2011 Share November 26, 2011 I promise you, when this comes out, I'll be one of the best Pinkies around there. Mark my words. Or at least I will try Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jabeth 2 November 27, 2011 Share November 27, 2011 I'm going to get it on the day of it's release, practice my fighting skills on local games (before it comes out I'll use Street Fighter IV as a substitue, ) then tromp around online as Fluttershy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zoop 8,382 November 29, 2011 Share November 29, 2011 For those of you not actively following the game, an update was posted a while ago. http://www.mane6.com/2011/11/this-might-be-post-about-guihuds.html Has some interesting development tidbits. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Zoop 8,382 December 1, 2011 Share December 1, 2011 When does this release? It's extremely hard to say with things like this given that they're developing the game in their own free time and aren't being paid for anything; not to mention the fact that they seem to be doing a very good job of keeping their development quality extremely high. TL;DR: Who knows, but it'll be worth the wait. As a side note, some new information regarding Fluttershy was posted the other day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
