BigWorld Tech News on Twinity’s Berlin

Obviously, we have some connection to BigWorld, and here’s what they had to say about Twinity’s about Twinity’s Berlin on their blog. One fun point:

Twinity is a socially oriented virtual world that focuses on recreating personal and public spaces inspired by real world locales - the first of which is the city of Berlin.

So real in fact, I was just talking to an avatar - ‘Neva’ (in world) who claimed to have been so lost in the realistically modeled streets of Twinity/Berlin that she had to alt-tab back to the desktop so she could Google map her way out. Thank God she had internet access, right?

An update on Twinity from Sered

Here you go, with some highlights below.

The good:

one of the complaints I had during the early beta is really being solved this way: more and more outdoor areas have appeared in Twinity. Not only that, they have been given a more prominent place too!

more enduser created content is appearing in Twinity

Thanks - we’re glad you like the outdoor settings!

The bad:

issues with stability and resource usage

performance remains an issue of concern

Noted, and being worked on!

Otenth Paderborn has been trying out Twinity

And has posted some screenshots for us. :-)
