Hey there guys Omar Parreira here from DrawOrb i know what your thinking this idiot has revealed so many stupid projects and never delivered i am so sorry and i shall never spam this games section again i promise i am sticking to this project and that is final.

The idea behind this project is pretty simple as firstly no game has ever been set in Dubai and secondly Dubai is an interesting place to set a game. Its risky there are many aspects to level design that are both complex and rewarding when planning a project in this specific region. Also most of these projects on the forums are FPS and Zombie Survival titles so this was quite unique as no-one is making an Open World Title.

I was very interested in having my own go at making a Dubai Inspired something in CryEngine 3 so i opened up Max and started modelling the Burj Al Arab im quite good with 3D modelling as i take Higher Computing and 3D CAD Engineering. Here are a few screenshot's at what i managed to achieve please give me some feedback and yes of course with time i will fill this map out but im a lone wolf right now and modelling takes time. Please give me honest feedback and how i can improve. Thanks guys and also dont hesitate to comment if you would like to help me out on this project as it kinda hard doing it alone i need a buddy on this lol.

Spec ops: The line takes place in Dubai. Albeit a post-sandstorm Dubai, but Dubai nevertheless. I do like your model, it's definitely fitting for long distance in my opinion, though I think it will need some more details if you plan to have the player close to it.

As an architecture enthusiast I am loving this! When I first got on here I started a mod set in an open world Chicago, and that is going great, now there is also a mod set in Hong Kong, which is amazing. And, now here is a mod set in Dubai, it can't get much better then this!

Also, i would be willing to work with you on this project, open world cities are my expertise, so it would be a good fit. About your models, they look great! Only thing I would work on is having a more detailed texture.

So what will be the game about? Will it be like a GTA style, hijacking cars, killing peds or is it going to be like a travelling guide to Dubai? lol
BTW, I really like your typography of the game title. :]

Yeah the game is a free roam multiplayer sandbox game that stretches from Dubai to the outskirts into the Abu Dhabi desert i believe our game is the most ambitious attempt at an open world game here on the forums. Stay tuned in the next few months as were going to be revealing more xD
