Early In-game Networked footage

Here's a little video showing some in-game footage of a little multiplayer session I had earlier today. Everything shown in the video is completely synchronized over the network. You can take control of any of your gangsters, and steal any vehicle and drive around, it's all in sync now.

Keep in mind there are a lot of things that are still a major work in progress, but it's getting there. I like the transition between the strategic map, and the game world...check it out.

Here is a little preview image of the video...

Right before a large 'braveheart-like' battle lol, all networked. It's starting to be a lot of fun to test the game :-)


The vehicle traffic AI has just been moved server side, and I'm working on smoothing everything out. As you can see from the video, the vehicles are updated pretty smoothly, I had to spend a lot of time getting things to update smoothly over the network.

Lots of other stuff is being worked on, I'll have another update soon.
