Ankama Convention # 4 - Porte de Versailles, Paris June 28, 2009: story of a day
We left happy, we returned exhausted!
10:45 It is this Sunday, June 28, 2009, Pandatuer and I arrived at Porte de Versailles. A small crowd heads for the convention, not the crowd and it's not displeasing to us!
We have an appointment with Radrive at 11am at the entrance. Needless to say that your pétantes 11h the brat came ready for a day Dofusienne (pronounced Dofousienne!)
At the entrance we give a little card to collect a bag full of 'goodies'. We're in the mood.
We are entering the agreement. Before we close all 500 PCs connected to our favorite game!
Overview of the Convention
Well, not quite, at the entrance on the left next to a cinema which broadcasts in the loop Wakfu episodes, hundreds of PCs are connected to Dofus Arena, right on the same number Wakfu next to the presentation of the collectible card game Wakfu.
A little further on the left a score of heroic PCs connected to the server where we could watch a battle of very high levels (lvl 187-200) Oto Mustam cons, famous player of the Ankama we have seen in person (hello autographs, which star!)
A little further on there are more than 300 PC dedicated to Dofus. Half the latest version 1.27 and the other half on version 2.0 Beta.
Speaking of version 2.0! We tested it on characters not preloaded on our personal. The visual impact is enormous compared to the current version: graphic details of spells animations, ergonomics of use. We get lost a bit at first because it changes a lot but we made it very quickly! There are no more pre-defined box to move up, down, left and right, just click anywhere on the edges. Very handy. However, I ask to see if the version is optimized for how she will react on our PCs and Macintoshes other if we are not beasts of race. It's going to paddle or not?
A population of diverse and varied players: men and women from 10 to 60 + years with of course the bulk of players between 10 and 17.
There were shops to buy some extra goodies, how can you resist a t-shirt bearing the likeness of our favorite game ; =)
the end of the hall were the conference venue, the tournament boufbowl, instead of reading and relaxation area.
Well organized, this convention has the enormous advantage of meeting other players other than through the keyboard of our computers. And to make this story more viv
ant I can not help but share this photo Pandatuer (the controls), Radrive (left) and other friends playing on other servers.
Pandatuer, radrive & Co
Thanks for reading
