Indeed. Try actually READING this time.

[View Quote] You obviously don't have any clue about where the online gaming industry is heading. If you knew about games like 10six, you would know that editing a level (or "camp" as it's called in 10six) is QUITE possible while you're being attacked. While 10six doesn't have extensive editing capabilities like AW and TRUE level editors, it's a minor preview of what's coming up from games like Neverwinter Nights and already present in Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption where the level can have elements added and deleted in real-time while other people are playing it.

So get your head out of the sand and learn about these things BEFORE responding to this post and making yourself look even more clueless about the gaming industry.

Wrong again. Shareholders have NO power over AWCI--even to the extent of selling all their stock, which AWCI will simply buy back like they have been.

There is relative comparison and if you actually had a clue about the other games out there and upcoming ones I've mentioned you'd realize this. AW is pale in comparison to what most level editors can do, so AW's worlds aren't TOTALLY dynamic either.

And learn how to increment reply, newbie.
