Would you like to see EotA reach the world of Executable or Console, and perhaps in different ways, like a First Peron AOS style game and all that rot? And how would you like to see it happen?

Needless to say the perks about a standalone version would be better performance, less load times, wouldn't have to have all the play areas in one map files, you could host a game specifically to a map, could even have a system to pick hero in pregame, yadda yadd, and DarnYak would be pleased to get to choose whatever language he wants to do it in, and much more. ^_^

EotA MMORPG is announced for fall 2010 already ( yes, new release date! ).

Look into the EotA History thread for more informations.

I was actually toying with the idea of a stand alone AoS client for a while. Its certainly possible, and shouldn't be THAT difficult, except its got the same problem Ialwasy run into when trying to make stand alone shit: I don't have any art resources to work with, and stealing them from real games just means if it ever gets any success it'll be killed from lawsuit threats.

I'm sure theres some people in the EotA community in those feilds. Maybe they'd be willing to help.

sounds like he means all graphics in game.

ie: terrain tiles, doodads, unit animations ?

uh that is a stupid question, but were talking about a stand alone exe?
Also a mod you install with that you can go to battle.net but only can play the maps for the mod.

Like this one with the 4 races elves demons and such.
