No unreal engine in MC3

From touchgen.net Now, one thing I can confirm that other media outlets may not have covered is that this is not, I repeat NOT running on the Unreal engine. It’s a testament to Gameloft’s own engine development that they are able to pull off increasingly better looking games by pushing and developing their engine further. It still lacks some of the finer details like dynamic shadows (though I’m told they might come later in this game’s development) as well as higher details on the characters, but it’s certainly one of the best looking first person shooters so far. I too was puzzled why they hadn’t used Unreal engine like they are doing with March of heroes, but I was told that while they are actively using Unreal engine, that it is still early days and they are more confident right now with their own in-house set up.

MC3 breakdown trailer (THEmaroonBANANA)





Toucharcade article on modern combat 3

IGN recently got their hands on Gameloft's upcoming modern military shooterModern Combat 3: Fallen Nation and aside from a new gameplay trailer, also have tons of details on the game itself. First off, you really need to watch this:

it seems Modern Combat 3 will fall in line with the other entries in the series and feature online multiplayer, this time with 12 players and six different game modes spread over six maps. They've also told IGN there will be "frequent updates," so it will be interesting to see if Modern Combat 3 sees better post-launch support than previous iterations.

Single player sounds like it's basically what you'd expect: 13 levels of fast-paced military-centric combat with voiceovers and battle locations ranging from Los Angeles to Russia. Controls sound like they'll be similar to other Gameloft first person shooters. What I'm curious of is whether this is a Unity or an Unreal Engine game, not that it really matters either way, but we haven't seen much yet from Gameloft's announcement of their future utilization of Unreal Engine 3.

touchaholics article on modern combat 3

Following the release of the trailer just moments ago, it seems as though we’re allowed to post the screenshots and details of Gameloft’s upcoming first-person shooter Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation(after receiving them earlier today).

If you don’t know, Modern Combat is probably the most successful first-person shooter for iPhone and iPad. The latest instalment in the series, Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus, score extremely high reviews when it released last year. Great graphics, gameplay, online multiplayer and more – all of which will be improved in Modern Combat 3.

We also received the following details:
• An intense 13-missions campaign with impressive cinematics and memorable,
moments.
• An frantic multiplayer with 12 players, 6 maps and 6 different modes.
• An addictive ranking system with more than 90 experience ranks.
• High-tech modern weaponry with modifications and attachments.
• Next-gen high quality visuals that will compete with the RAGE and UNREAL
engines.

 

IGN Article on modern combat 3

Gameloft set the standard for mobile military FPS titles with Modern Combat: Sandstorm in 2009. Their 2010 follow-up Modern Combat 2: Black Pegasus further upped the ante with the addition of 10-player realtime multiplayer. The series may not earn points for originality (it shamelessly cribs from Activision's Modern Warfare franchise), but the games make up for their lack of fresh ideas with brilliant execution. Put simply, Modern Combat 1 and 2 are the best FPS titles on mobile platforms.

Modern Combat returns this fall with Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation, and based on our early hands-on time with the title, we think the game has the potential to become Gameloft's best mobile FPS yet.

We had the opportunity to play through the game's first stage, playing as new protagonist Corporal James Walker. Gameloft became curiously cagey when asked if players would control other soldiers in later levels, perhaps to leave the door open for previous Modern Combat characters to return. The game opens with a bang, with an attack on downtown Los Angeles by KPR (North Korea, Pakistan, and Russia– natch) troops. The opening in-engine cutscene mentions that numerous US cities are under assault, and that Chicago has been lost. Gameloft has promised a "globe-spanning" single player experience across 13 stages. Later missions will take players to Alaska, Pakistan and into North Korea itself.

The gunplay in Modern Combat 3 feels fast and fluid. Gamers move their character via a left virtual thumbstick, and aim with a right virtual thumbstick. Firing, lobbing grenades, sprinting, crouching, and aiming down your weapon's sights each have their own virtual buttons. At first this control setup felt awkward. Transitioning from sprinting to aiming or going from firing our weapon to throwing a grenade wasn't easy. But like Modern Combat 2, Gameloft has implemented a very slick customization setup. Virtually every single touchpad button can be repositioned anywhere that the player wants. So after a little fiddling I moved my buttons into more comfortable positions, and felt much better prepared to shoot fools in the face. It's still not the same as having a controller in-hand, but a fully customizable interface does fix many of the problems inherent to virtual buttons.

The sprint button is new to Modern Combat 3, and gives gamers a means of quickly escaping behind cover if they take too much damage. Radar has also been added to the Modern Combat HUD for the first time.

The Los Angeles level was lengthy, and incorporated several large set pieces and scripted sequences. The game aggressively pushes players through the stage at a breakneck pace – shouting at Walker to fire an RPG at concrete support pillars, or sprint for cover to avoid a roving attack helicopter, or to neutralize another immediate threat. Midway through, I experienced the level's most memorable moment: my helicopter crashed, and I had to dig myself out using contextual touch-screen controls.

Overall, the experience wasn't perfect. Combat dialogue from my allies repeated over and over (and over). The aim assist also felt a bit on the heavy side. In a linear mobile FPS, a little aim assist is quite welcome – these single player adventures are essentially roller coaster rides, after all. But a little goes a long way, and right now Modern Combat 3's aiming reticle feels a bit too sticky. Luckily both of these issues shouldn't be too tough for Gameloft to iron out prior to release.

We didn't get a chance to test out Modern Combat 3's multiplayer, but Gameloft did reveal a few details. The game will support 12 player multiplayer (up from MC2's 10), across 6 maps and 6 unique modes of play. A Call of Duty-style EXP system has also been included, providing players with 90 ranks to climb through. Multiplayer matchmaking is once again being handled through Gameloft's proprietary Gameloft Live system. Gameloft also told us to expect frequent updates, so players can likely look forward to fresh multiplayer maps and modes post-launch.

Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation won't win any awards for originality. But that's not the point. When it sees release later this fall, gamers looking for the latest mobile FPS fix will likely find a lot to enjoy in Gameloft's shooter.
