Critical Point

Critical Point: Incursion is a standalone game created by more than 30 volunteers with Epic Games' Unreal Development Kit.

Incursion is a semi-realistic, arcade-like first-person shooter combining tactical gameplay with arcade-style speed.Utilising a wide variety of modern weaponry and set in fantastically rendered locations, the Mercenaries and Special Forces meet at a critical point!



In a rush-based mode as seen in first-person shooters such as CoD4, Battlefield 3, Counter Strike and TO:AoT, teams are given level-specific objectives in round-based scenarios!

CP:I is aimed at a large player base, offering a huge platform for competitive clan and league play, allowing individuals to shine and capture their glory regardless of how many hours they have played. It accentuates skill vs luck, aiming vs spraying, etc.



We differ from the competition by having no unlockables, no RPG's, no claymores, no tanks, jets or other vehicles. No spotting of enemies, no gimmicks affecting reloading, no influence on aiming, and no movement hit penalties when shot!

Just PURE infantry combat action!!

If you love action-packed first person shooters with great community involvement, then Critical Point: Incursion is for you!

Our game is still in development, but we look forward to showing you more soon,
CP:I Development Team

Dear Community,

Summer is here, although the weather seems late in joining the party! Anyhow, we hope you are all enjoying the break if you're lucky enough to have leave from work or break in your education. We over at Critical Point: Incursion have been quiet over the last 3 weeks, taking a much needed vacation, but it's safe to say that the majority of us are now back on track with progress moving along as expected.

Some recent activity over on facebook will enlighten you with some "unofficial" pictures, movie and progress updates that should keep your taste buds tingling in between our official front page news.
Check us out over at Facebook Dominating Studios

Dear Community,

To boost the summer feeling we proudly present you a flyby through "Seclusion", a level set deep in the secluded forest of an American mountain range. This retreat is for one of the military’s most decorated Generals. His lavish mansion, a retirement gift, and testament to his years of service and battles won. In stark contrast to the turmoil of battle, the only thing disrupting the crisp morning air is the sound of birds and loons at the lakeside.

This morning, that calm was shattered by the sounds of gunfire.

Enough words, sit back and enjoy!

Dear Community,

We have made a lot of improvements thanks to your feedback. We do our best to keep the standards as high as possible, but ultimately, you, our loyal fans, are the final point of inspection!

After the transition from the Unreal Tournament 3 engine to the new Unreal Development Kit (UDK) back in 2009, we noticed that many weapons and assets were not up to our standards. It takes a lot of soul-searching and persistence to turn around to your team (and your fans) to tell them, "We are doing it all over from the start!"

FULL ARTICLE WITH NEW WEAPONS AND SCREENSHOTS

However, there is always a silver lining, and we have pushed the quality barrier to a new high in all areas, above and beyond many indie games, which will ultimately help assist in the game's future success.




We received a lot of comments from the big changes new outlook media release across the forums, facebook, twitter and indieDB. We are hugely thankful and appreciative of that!

The team has worked tremendously hard since the rebrand in March 2012, in particular Alexey "3dzipp0" Medyanik, whom has stepped up the pace, moving into the role of Environment Artist & Lead Weapon Artist, coordinating and ensuring we meet our high standards and our milestone plans.

Game Updates:
You will notice our 2 newest MERC characters ingame, from Jean (female char) and Womball (male char).
There is also the inclusion of our laser dot, networked and replicated over multiplayer game which even shines on your screen if a player happens to be aiming at your face!
We also have coded in a team health indicator, which switches between your team mates name and health - carefully programmed to auto scale at range so the bar does not take over the screen or interrupt with visibility.

Click below and now enjoy.

DEV VIDEO - Weapons & Hit System


Known issues:
Animations: Running 3P anims still need further improvement.
We want to tone down the excessive ragdoll effects when being killed and shot. We have animations for these but they need to be coded in.
Sounds: Animnotify for the running sounds plays too fast. We also are improving the running, falling & jumping sounds.
We will also include a hit sound when firing at opponent so there is acknowledgement of a hit.
Since this video we have updated all weapon sounds to be more beefy and have a better booming lasting effect.
Effects: Some 3P weapon effects (muzzle flash and smoke) are not working as intended, some are not visible at all. This has been fixed since the video was made a week ago.[/center]


We hope you enjoyed it as much as we did making it. It’s the first of our kind so feedback and suggestions for the next video are highly welcome!

We will be producing further informal dev videos (at no expense to our development progress) giving the community the opportunity to find out more on Critical Point: Incursion and how our Indie game on the UDK engine works in detail.

You, our fans have the opportunity to vote on what video you most want to see next!
