Hello.

As many of you probably know, the Australian company "Wingman Games" is working on creating a police simulator titled "Police 10-13".

I believe it has been discussed on the LCPDFR-forums before, but I was unable to find the relating thread. Please move/delete this if there are any issues.

 

To be honest, I had a rather negative opinion about "Police 10-13" when they first started advertising their game, managing to get to #1 on Steam Greenlight within a few days and only by showing early concept-art that was infact purchased from an online marketplace and not created by their development-team.

Just today they have released their first developer diary, and to be honest that might be changing my opinion towards that project a lot. They have shown some of their internally-created assets and even though it's really not much they have done since they got greenlit on Steam I am starting to get some faith in their project. 

Apparently they are about to start full production in their studio soon and they are doing the final steps of getting investors on board.

 

What's your opinion on this project? Even though the feature-list on their website is ridiculously long I believe that the market is missing a real police-simulator and I hope this project is going to succeed. I am still very careful about it though.

 

Greetings,

Andy

I honestly doubt there will be much that a game developed in Unreal 4 by a couple of people. from scratch, will be able to do that can't be done in GTA V.  I get the claim is made that "Oh this thing will totally kill LCPDFR/LSPDFR".

No, it won't.  And people will see why shortly after playing the first version of LSPDFR.

Unfortunately, the reason that you don't see anything Police 10-13 related here is because we were threatened with legal action by them after people here called them out on what they perceived them to be a while back.  Sure, there's no realistic possibility of such action succeeding, but we'd rather not have to spend our time dealing with things like that when we've got far more important and meaningful things to do.
