GAME ACTION
With many of the elements discussed here in place within the game, it all comes down
to just one thing—the game action! In many cases, the most design development time
is spent trying to get the play details just right.
Figure E-14 shows the early stages of developing the game action, from the
pitcher’s view. Of course, UBO is unique in that every single field position is controlled
by a unique player connected together in this suspended baseball world.
Figure E-15 shows a spectator’s view of the batting action (a swing and a miss!).
Who doesn’t believe that the future for MMOG sports is bright indeed!
