Searhus on the warp screen

Who else saw it? I wonder if they already started working on it.

Oh, ya! that is Searhus.

isn't that Amerish? Or is that Hossin. Probably neither but good find.

The shape doesn't remind me of any of the PS1 conts, but Esamir didn't look like the original either. It's probably Amerish.

That has got to be Amerish, just flipped around a bit...

Now, this doesn't mean anything. Nor does the Searhus map. It's just a historical touch I guess.

D'oh... now I see it. I was looking at the vertical shape.

Amerish comes next then after that likley Searhus. T-Ray mentioned it in one of the interviews this week.

Is that art from PS1?

The Searhus/Amerish pictures? Yes

Speaking of continents

Since they're all squares, could it be because they're limited in terms of creativity since the water isn't finished in the engine yet?

That and bandwith. Seeing as they have no official date for open beta there's plenty of time to make it seamless before launch. I'd love to see this go on for another year and really polish the game.

The 'official' word, iirc, was they made all the conts square to maximize the amount of playable area on each map. After all, the glorious Hex system needs its space.

PS maps are classics. I loved those maps ans Searhurs was my favorite cont. I wish they would update them into PS2.
