 Elite Force 2 in Alpha testing phase
posted by severe! (0520 hours)
Activision producer Doug Pearson has posted an update at Ritualistic forums.
Actually I can report that the game is in Alpha testing now. After Alpha we will be doing internal beta testing on the project, but we also use an external testing group called the Visioneers that test all of our products. There will be extensive testing of the product at Ritual, Activision, and also with the Visioneer testing group. That's several hundred testers all together.
One last note.
At this time we have no plans for a public test for Elite Force II. That's about it for now.

New Elite Force II Interview and screenshots
posted by severe! (1220 hours)Along with four new screenshots, The Adrenaline Vault has posted up an new EF2 interview. What other tools and gadgets will players get to use?
The player will have access to the Tricorder, which will be used extensively throughout the game. There are several modes for the tricorder including scanning, radar, trace-gas emission, structural integrity scan, trip-wire detection, cloak detection and even a mode later in the game that allows the player to call in torpedo strikes from orbit. One of the additional Hazard Suit improvements is an update to your visual display device to provide a night-vision overlay when navigating dark areas of the game.

Tony Todd voicing in Elite Force II
posted by severe! (0104 hours)Over at the Ritualistic Forums, Chris Stockman (EF2 game designer) gave some more info on the voicing cast:
Tony Todd is the voice of Korban (our Klingon Hazard Team member). If you remember Tony was Worf's brother Kurn (sp?) in TNG. He has also been in a number of shows including Boston Public and CSI.
Tony was absolutely fantastic to work with and I look forward to hearing his lines in the actual game.
The remaining cast members will be announced in due time so stay tuned.
