Ankama Studios, developer and operator of its remarkable Flash-based MMORPG Dofus is notorious for keeping different grades of topicality throughout the French and English versions of their news- and development blogs. The following (French) news therefor seems to have slipped away nearly unnoticed outside France, so let’s change this:
As announced by Tyn, member of Dofus’ development-team, Ankama is currently working on a new release of Dofus. Dofus 2.0 will be written from scratch to optimize client and server architecture, instead of creating an umpteenth patch. The team hopes to achieve higher performance and lower memory consumption--which should come as no big surprise with the all new capabilities of Flash 9. The new client will further offer performance-related options, like disabling fancy, but resource-demanding eyecandy.
It is also expected that Dofus 2.0 will feature new ways to customize avatars, since Ankama is working on a skeleton-based animation-system for its characters.
