Horizons Interview

Gamer’s Hell has conducted an interview with Artifact’s Steve Escalante, asking him several questions about Horizons: Empire of Istaria. Check it out:

Q: As for Guild Banners, how will they be created? Will it be a system like for example DAoC is running it, or can a guild completely draw its own banner and submit it for use in the game?

A: Guild banners are still a work in progress. DAoC has a very nice system for guild banners and customization. We are considering the idea of guilds submitting their artwork however the checks and balances for such a system is not currently in place. Further, new banner assets would have to be downloaded by all players, which could create a patching process every time a player logs in. We will let you know when we have arrived at a suitable solution.
