New Screenshots :)

[Xard]

"The lighting effects are in place even at this early stage, and a charismatic midnight vista is visible from the office elevator. Even the naff corporate artwork on the walls looks right."

 

It looks that good on these stages of development so I don't think there's any reason to be worried if graf1xes are important

[Humodour]

I have the impression that imaged being 'furnished' with photoshop ect since it looks far more atmospheric than the other IG screenies.

 

Prove me wrong and I will be a happy bunny.

 

We've been told that's absolutely not the case.

This is aged?

 

Yeah I don't quite get that either, but then people raved about GTA 4 graphics and I was meh. Technically GTA 4 graphics were great, massive area no loading time between different areas, but aesthetically/visually I wasn't that impressed. I think some reviewers are expecting all new games to look like Crysis, even though most PC can't play it above 10 FPS and the consoles would blow up if you tried to put it on them.

[Wrath of Dagon]

I'd rather they concentrate more on gameplay than graphics. I think graphics will be good enough, and art design is more important than the technical quality.

[WILL THE ALMIGHTY]

I don't mind the graphics not being jaw-dropping, as long as the animations are fluid (as in, no twitching when interacting with stuff or drastically changing direction).

BTW, Sega Nerds are taking questions for Alpha Protocol interview.

 

We've been invited to attend a question and answer session for Alpha Protocol pretty soon, and I'm gonna allow you guys to throw some questions into the mix. We'll take the very best questions, along with our own, and make sure they get answered.

 

ALPHA PROTOCOL

[mkreku]

Haha, notice how Thorton is consequentially misspelled as Thornton throughout the quote?

 

I TOLD YOU IT WAS A MISTAKE TO NAME HIM THORTON!

[Xard]

Damn, I might just have to register

[Xard]

So, I posted questions there. They're some of the ones actively circulated here and I doubt they'd get asked otherwise

[Patrick K Mills]

None of the screenshots are touched up. I think I posted that before but it might have been in a different thread. Here at Obsidian we're very opposed to photoshopping our press screenshots. For reals, yo.

 

We might set up a scene that isn't *exactly* 100% gameplay, but that's because it's often hard to frame a screenshot while guys are shooting at you.

Awsum sauce baby.

 

Maintain the quality similar to the museum screenshot and you can turn me into a happy sissy lumber jack. ^.^

Characters will remember conversations

 

Does this mean characters won't repeat their speech over and over if you exit a conversation and engage in one again?

[Xard]

AFAIK yes

[Humodour]

Damn. That can be a good and a bad thing.

 

I don't want them to run out of things to say and then just repeat "We have nothing more to talk about." over and over again, either.

[Xard]

I believe you can ask some basic questions again but going again through insanely long conv trees... not so much

[Cycloneman]

Damn. That can be a good and a bad thing.

Maybe they leave at the end of conversations, eh? Did you consider that possibility?

[Tigranes]

It's certainly better than hearing 6 times "HELP! YOU HAVE TO HELP ME! IF YOU DONT HELP ME.. THEY'LL KILL ME!"

 

Free coconut for whoever gets the reference.

[Humodour]

Viconia didn't say that over and over again unless you tried to run away from her, Tirgranes.
