Talk:Savage: The Battle for Newerth

Savage (game) needs to be merged into this.

Untitled
Also there's a number of redirects with the spelling/capitalisation changed that will need to be edited when this article is ready e.g. Savage: the Battle for Newerth -Chaosfeary 13:52, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Merger from Savage (game) has been completed. Some editing on the backstory section may be in order. Also, the Gameplay section could use more description. Lastly, can someone get a picture up please? Shadowfury333 02:48, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

All logical redirects done (i.e. Savage:The Battle for Newerth with different first letter capitalizations i.e. Savage:the Battle for Newerth). Also, the link from Savage has been replaced to point here. Shadowfury333 03:01, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

How bout a simple screenshot or two? All video games should have a capture, I would think. I came looking for the UI, and got squat. HaeSuse 14:54, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

If someone was going to get a screenshot I think they should get one of the behemoth (its pretty iconic for the game) and also one from command mode would be goodTreborsdeath 19:03, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Where would be a good place to get information for a "Reception" section, do you suppose? 14/06/07

Fair use rationale for Image:Savage box.jpg
Image:Savage box.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

First RTSS?
I understand the citations, however, I'm still perplexed as to why Savage is credited as the first RTSS when Natural Selection came out a year before (2002) and Battlezone 2 three years before that (1999)? Without an accurate definition of what an RTSS is (the page for Real Time Strategy Shooter redirects to the page for First-person shooter, a separate genre) it seems like an audacious claim (even with citations). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.104.69.30 (talk) 20:40, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
 * And so you are correct, the referenced article is actually a press release which IGN just took and published on its site. I'll remove the bits as NPOV. Kenimaru (talk) 08:55, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

Freeware
Can someone confirm if both the client and server software is Freeware, or just the client? Thanks, Marasmusine (talk) 09:24, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Both the client and the server are Freeware. Additionally, the client can run a server within itself, or a dedicated server may be used. —  Sen th ryl  (talk) 02:23, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Belated thanks. Marasmusine (talk) 21:12, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

Newerth reference
The game has pretty much been completely taken over by newerth.com. I would say it deserves to be mentioned somewhere. 87.104.112.100 (talk) 22:03, 17 July 2010 (UTC)


 * There was a section about SFE and XR and Newerth's control of the game, but it was removed during |this cleanup by User:Eik_Corell, since it relied entirely on primary sources. With proper sources, this information could be added back to the article - and it is critical information since it is very difficult to play the game without using the newerth.com developed mod. —  Sen th ryl  (talk) 20:10, 3 August 2010 (UTC)
