Talking about multi-player, our DRM-free version will be mulitplayer-compatible with all other versions, so you'll get to go fragging your friends whatever their preferred game delivery system might be. While the game looks and feels very 2013, the developers went out of their way to recreate that special RotT feel. Just look!

Question for developers: how did you approached the dilemma of what to keep from original game (catering to our nostalgia) and what to modernize? Did you changed/added something which wasn´t in the original?
Looks nice and the games included in the pre-order are good for nostalgia purposes.
My question to the developers is:
Given the plethora of First Person Shooters out there, what would you say separates your game from the competion, both in single and multi-player aspects? What makes it diferent?
And one quesiton for GOG: Why do you mention year 1995 in Rise of The Triad preorder page, when on the original game´s gamecard is stated 1994?
Question for the developers: Do you plan on supporting any form of modding?

Question to the developers:

Noticed this game has only 20 levels according to the product description. Dunno which levels of the original will reappear on this remake. My question is, in future DLCs will you remake all the levels of Dark War?
Can you play deathmatch maps against bots?
Question for the Devs: Will Rise of the Triad have DLCs, more "traditional" expansions, or none of the two ?

They have previously mentioned free DLC. But i assume such things depend on reception and the like. They also have another game in development Project Pathfinder which supposedly is heading to consoles and it set it in a world known IP. SO i don't know how they prioritize their resources. They also ported Duke Nukem 2(and 1?) to iOS.

I don't think they have addressed that issue.

Well then, maybe they'll tell us now ;)
Question for the devs: are there gonna be any measures for players who suffer from motion sickness? For example, an option to disable view bobbing, or at least a FOV slider?
