Matthew Rorie Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Alpha Protocol is now available for pre-order on Steam, and if you pre-order it, it'll come with a free copy of Space Siege that you can play right away! http://store.steampowered.com/news/2745/ Matthew Rorie
alanschu Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) Oooooooooooooooo! What's Space Siege? >.> EDIT: Ignoring the fact I can find out on my own really easily ... Edited August 19, 2009 by alanschu
Matthew Rorie Posted August 19, 2009 Author Posted August 19, 2009 Space Siege is kind of a spiritual successor to Dungeon Siege, made by Gas Powered Games. You play only one character, but you have a robot helper who can be upgraded. I played it through to the end earlier this year and had a good time with it. Matthew Rorie
alanschu Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I see it has coop That might entice me! If you can say, how do preorder perks get determined? Edited August 19, 2009 by alanschu
PizzasRgooD Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Space Siege is bad. It's Dungeon Siege but very much dumbed down. And Dungeon Siege was already Diablo lite. Not saying you can't enjoy it, just saying it's unlikely. http://www.metacritic.com/games/platforms/pc/spacesiege
Cloaker Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Alpha Protocol is now available for pre-order on Steam, and if you pre-order it, it'll come with a free copy of Space Siege that you can play right away! http://store.steampowered.com/news/2745/ Cool but, I noticed it said "Alpha Protocol is set to release in October, 2009." No specific date given like before. Does that mean the delay to late october is true? Please confirm soon..
Llyranor Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Bundling this with Space Siege may have been this game's biggest blunder so far! (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it)
mr insomniac Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 It's also available for pre-order on amazon. The release date there is set for October 6th. That's where I pre-ordered it . No Space Siege unfortunately but i'll have the disc. A 12 gb or so download is a bit steep for me. I took this job because I thought you were just a legend. Just a story. A story to scare little kids. But you're the real deal. The demon who dares to challenge God. So what the hell do you want? Don't seem to me like you're out to make this stinkin' world a better place. Why you gotta kill all my men? Why you gotta kill me? Nothing personal. It's just revenge.
Pidesco Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Had the system requirements been released already? AP's Steam page has them. Supported OS: Microsoft Windows XP "My hovercraft is full of eels!" - Hungarian tourist I am Dan Quayle of the Romans. I want to tattoo a map of the Netherlands on my nether lands. Heja Sverige!! Everyone should cuffawkle more. The wrench is your friend.
Shdy314 Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Bundling this with Space Siege may have been this game's biggest blunder so far! Seriously. Is this a pre-order bonus or punishment? Did Obsidian have any say in that. Why would you want your name associated with Space Siege. It'd make sense if the two games were at all similar but this... I'm GLAD I'm not buying it on Steam.
Humodour Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Windows 7 isn't supported. Shouldn't it be supported? No, Windows 7 has not been released yet. Support teams generally don't support beta versions and the like.
Cl_Flushentityhero Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Wow, people hate Space Siege so much I'm kind of curious now.
Oner Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 It's included for free, so I don't get the problem. Giveaway list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DgyQFpOJvyNASt8A12ipyV_iwpLXg_yltGG5mffvSwo/edit?usp=sharing What is glass but tortured sand?Never forget! '12.01.13.
H Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 What is my dad doing in this game? The resemblance is uncanny.
Sannom Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I laughed at the "Rome-ance" perk that gives Michael a +5 Endurance I like the two first pics, menu of the perks and customization of armor. Apparently, we can get a discount on almost anything with Grigori : we knew about the armor one when being nice, the weapon one when being violent, now we know the gadget one when being professional. And I quite like the appearance we can give to Michael in the second pic. Feels natural, especially the hair. What is my dad doing in this game? The resemblance is uncanny. Don't all spies have secret identities ? Or maybe I'm confusing with super-heroes... Edited August 19, 2009 by Sannom

Sannom Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I won't say that great minds think alike, because mine isn't that great. But fans do think alike. Especially when they're eager for any news about the most RPG part of the game I prefer to think that : --- a perk named like that with that kind of effect is funny to anyone --- everyone is happy to learn more about things that we knew, but we're never actually shown --- Grigori has received a lot of focus recently, anything more about him is noticeable. Wonder what happens when we threaten him? He laughs in our face? Edited August 19, 2009 by Sannom

Pidesco Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Some of those screens are pretty sweet. I like the way Mike looks. It's really starting to become apparent that head and face customization is really powerful. It's always the same basic structure, but the different choices make for really different Mikes. Much better than customized Pete Postlethwaite. P.S.: I spelled "Postlethwaite" correctly without checking. Because I'm awesome.

Guest PoziomyPion Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 I wonder if those system requirements are real, if so, this are some low ones. This game supports single core processors and NVIDIA
Purkake Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) You could have packed in Bloodlines, such a missed opportunity Nice to see AP on Steam, though. Edited August 19, 2009 by Purkake
Enoch Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 You could have packed in Bloodlines, such a missed opportunity I'm guessing that Space Seige was picked because it was also published by Sega.
Purkake Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Sega is like a ball and chain on Obsidian's leg.
Oner Posted August 19, 2009 Posted August 19, 2009 Sega is like a ball and chain on Obsidian's leg.They let Obs properly finish their game.
