Chaos Engine 1 3 Players ?
znalazlem taka informacje w sieci ze w wersji beta tej gry byla mozliwosc grania w 3 osobyczy ktos moze powiedziec cos wiecej ????
An early 3 Player beta version of the game was previewed on the British TV show Gamesmaster, shown below. The reviewer was a very nervous looking Graham Boxall from Renegade Software. At the end of the preview it was stated that the game would be released for the Amiga, ST, and PC formats in the Spring of 1992. In fact it would be another full year before it was actually released for the Amiga and ST, and another two years for the PC.
Some screenshots of the beta version were also featured in popular computer magazines of the time, as shown below. When a designer suddenly left half way through development many parts of the game was re-assessed. Amongst the changes was the removal of the third player element as tests had found it to be superfluous to the action and impractical.
Although the beta looks very similiar to the final game the control panel is very different as it shows three mercenaries instead of two. In the single player mode the player would control one of these characters while the computer assumed control of the other two. You can clearly see these three mercenaries in the action area of the screenshots. As you can well imagine it would get a bit crowded on screen when the pace picked up!

@HOŁDYS, post #1
Masz racje. W jednym z PowerPlay'ow byl obszerny artykul (poczatek 92 roku) na ten temat, wraz ze screenami. Gra byla wtedy w fazie produkcji, i miala byc w wersjach 1player+2CPU, 2 player + 1 CPU.
Mozesz poszukac na www.kultpower.de, tam jest sporo elektronicznych werrsji tego magazynu (niemieckojezycznego).
JA mam akuratnie gdzies ten numer, wiec postaram sie ewentualnie zeskanowac ten artykulik i gdzies go wrzucic. Screeny wygladaly swietnie.
Grafika Dan'a Malone w tej grze to majstersztyk!
