Call Of Cthulhu - the atmospheres, mannnn. - still in the works.
Cyberpunk 2077 - a long way off but a fresh take from a dev with impeccable pedigree. - still in the works. Dawn Of War 3 - shoddy gameplay trailer, but looks more of the same with added Knights, which is good enough. - it's out! Some reports are too MOBA-y but from what I've seen it looks good. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - HR made up for IW, series is back on track, looks slick. - great, sure it's small-scaled and cliched, but a really fun explorathon. Dishonoured 2 - looks like the perfect sequel to a cool fun game. - still not played this but by all reports it's great. Dreadnought - neat looking spaceship combat game....but only if it gets the promised SP campaign. - no chance of SP so can fuck off. Elex - RPG from them Gothic lot. A mish-mash of every theme in existence, interesting how it will turn out. - still a long way away. Hellraid - another cool-looking fantasy FPS thing. Will this one disappear up it's own arse too? Hope not. - almost certainly vapourware. Phoenix Point - grittier looking XCom-style game from original devs who liked the reboots. SOLD. - it's funded! http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2017-05-02-julian-gollops-phoenix-point-funded-within-a-week Prey - not much known but trailer looks intriguing, from Dishonoured devs. - 2 days. BioSystem Shock but hey it still looks good. Great-looking monsters. SpaceHulk: Deathwing - Trailer looks perfect as an adaptation of this game. Left 4 Tyranid? Count me in. - short, unambitious, best in SP only, but good and stylish stealer mashing. Styx: Shards Of Darkness - if you liked the first nifty goblin-themed stealth-em-up, this looks spot on. - meant to be more of the same but a bit better. Titanfall2 - it's got a proper single player campaign and robosuits. Worth a try. - well worth a try and indeed top 5 last year. Great fun and amazing graphics. Where is the SP DLC tho?? Battletech - turn-based mech combat, alpha gameplay looks spot on. - where is my fucking backer-funded beta?? Pffft. Anyway, game due sometime later this year. So there we go, you win some you lose some. Albeit most of the losses are abandoning SP / abandoning the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt6FatHHnzI&feature=youtu.be
very ueful vid. confident in my backing of this. Goody! I thought the Metro saga was supposed to be over...? The trailer looks extra yummy, thanks for sharing. Isn't the music taken from The Fountain OST by Clint Mansell? It's the same melody.
Anybody hyped for this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xHht8480cEo Trailer is bonkers! Don't miss the final seconds when a character drops acid. Also, ArrrCee reviewed it on his GGRC channel, for those interested. Yeah that looks awesome. I thought it was supposed to be over too. Guess they changed their mind.
Although, it all seemed like a scripted sequence which I bet doesn't play out like that in the final game. You wouldn't make that spectacular outdoor area only to be over in 30 seconds. Nah not the Fountain score, it's much more modern, a lot of trailers have used that theme lately (or variations of that theme, as here it's more techy). Not sure where it comes from, clearly inspired by some Hans Zimmer scores. I wouldn't mind knowing where it came from and if it does have a full score, sounds good. it all seemed like a scripted sequence which I bet doesn't play out like that in the final game.
That's what I was wondering, especially in the sequence with the cliff and zipline. That said, it's supposed to be a gameplay trailer, so ideally it should play out like that. I too would like to know where the music comes from. Anyone? Maybe a remix of Mansell's work? I believe it's called 'Don abandons Alice' or something like that from "28 weeks later"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVnz6hlC3pQ ...that the trailer is a highly condensed scripted sequence of gameplay that will take place in that area. Seems entirely natural to have a 5-10 minute segment going through that properly.
Wolf looks cool too although they are milking it a bit now!! This is what, Wolf 5?? Wolf, RTCW, Wofl reboot, Wofl TNO, (Wolf TOB mission pack), this. I know it works well and is fun but.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL5GSfs9fi4
Judgement reserved so hard it hurts on the gameplay / SP functionality, tho. Games are looking nicer and I rejoice in that.
It's bad when games that have promising gameplay lack too much in the graffix department like being badly optimised with bad performance or they just look bad as in having amateurish textures/meshes/animations and so forth. TBH Anthem looks so good that a Ubi-style downgrade would still be very appealing. Plus lush world, sci-fi, monsters, etc. It's the gameplay and single player aspect that concerns me a lot more.
Its purdy but still entirely too plastic/fake, the glitzy gfx just make the effect worse or at least non the better than it has always been :
When a 400 Kilo armor suit crashed down at terminal velocity it leaves marks on concrete -> https://youtu.be/EL5GSfs9fi4?t=129 It feels like a light piece of armor made of plastic that generates "wooomp" sound effect and shoots sparks out of its butthole to impress your 8 year old friends. A toy. on that YT vid and apparently this is a scripted sequence overdubbed by actors, not actual coop gameplay. Which awakens the ghost of deceptions past as KP & Shambler pointed out. I should have known better. Still hyped though.
Not really much interest in games but you made me look at the video!
Looks pretty but oh my acting, dialogue, music so meh! Yeah of course the actual set-up is fake as anything. The "dialogue" is pathetic but that's ignorable anywaty.
