Cutlock Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 Volo protecting Fallout Online? how horrible. anyway, no need to bash the whole series because of one bad game Yes there is. You really cant appreciate anything made by Interplay can you? You probably do not even like any of their games except Fallout and that's only because of it going to Bethesda. ...go Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 3... weak wooh in response.

Gorth Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Guys... How about laying off the publisher bashing a bit. Yes, that goes for Interplay too (I've got a lot of fond memories of Interplay published games). Edit: @CutLock - why don't you try out the DSIII demo? By all accounts, it should be a similar (not saying the same) experience to the BG:DA games. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Sannom Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 we don't care if it has no connection to Abdel Adrian (which it does). I thought that name was buried under the ire of all the fans of the game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cutlock Posted June 6, 2011 Author Share Posted June 6, 2011 DSIII its similar I know, but its just not the same and does not give me the ending. Plus, I think Ehb sounds really, really weird and non-original (Dark Alliance was non-original in an original way). Abdel Adrian was buried under the ire, but in FR Canon, that's the canon and I used that name only to show that the two series were connected by only a thread. Games made by Interplay since Black Isle's Dissolution: 2012: Fallout Online 2011: Earthworm Jim 4 ClayFighter: Call of Putty Legendary Wars: T-Rex Rumble Stonekeep WiiWare Descent WiiWare Battle Chess 2011 MDK2 HD Prehistorik Man Death and the Fly Homesteader 2010: Pinball Yeah!

Hurlshort Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 That is a terrible list. Also, let's not kid ourselves, Fallout Online by Interplay is never going to see the light of day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorophx Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 That is a terrible list. QFT also, I don't think EWJ is out (is it?), and without Shiny making it...

Cutlock Posted June 7, 2011 Author Share Posted June 7, 2011 Shiny became Double Helix Games. Doug TeNapal, I think he worked for Shiny (I don't know), is the lead on the project. The games on that list are selling quite well. MDK HD got number 1 spot on WiiWare. Legendary Wars and Prehistorik Man got got top 10 spots on the DSiWare. Pinball Yeah! sold quite well on the iPhone, although due to the mass of iPhone games, you cant really count it as a success. Tommy Tronic, Death and the Fly and Homesteader were moderate successes. Plus, Fallout Online will see the light of the day. The forum I listed proves just about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorophx Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Shiny became Double Helix Games. without D.Perry it's not Shiny anymore, their list of shipped games does not impress Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

Cutlock Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Well, that is the closest your going to get to Shiny. Well, Interplay did hire some of Double Helix's fired off employees. It doesn't surprise me that their list of games doesn't surprise you. From what I get, your the kind of person who expects a recovering company to release blockbuster games in the first three years of their return.

Cutlock Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) Well actually, Interplay just released the thing in court or whatever that prooves that they do have funding for Pv13. Also, its most of Masthead's team that is working on the game. Interplay's team is working on: Earthworm Jim 4 (This should be out at the end of the year or next year) Legendary Wars: T-Rex Rumble (This is coming out in summer for the iPhone, DSi is already out) they are also selling Earthworm Jim t-shirts at Hot Topic, so some revenue there. Masthead has experience with MMO's. They have released Earthrise V2.0 from what I hear is much better than their first version. So what they did wrong with Earthrise, they will do right with Fallout Online. Edited June 10, 2011 by Cutlock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sorophx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 even Bethesda couldn't do a Fallout game right, it's highly unlikely a small studio will do the game justice, Fallout is about exploring and talking to people. and I have a feeling they'll ditch SPECIAL. in which case it will be Fallout in name only Walsingham said: I was struggling to understand ths until I noticed you are from Finland.

sorophx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 New Vegas was a stroke of genius, maybe it was a fluke and Obsidian isn't really a small studio, at least I don't perceive it that way.

Cutlock Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 So wait, you like Fallout: New Vegas and not Fallout 3? Whats the main difference other than story, creatures, location, iron sights and bugs? Its the same engine. Remember, the game is digital download. Only part of Interplay's team is making it. Masthead Studios is making it. Masthead is about the same size as Obsidian. Even their first original IP was considered a bomb by some and a success by some. Its just their Bulgarian.

sorophx Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) Its the same engine. right, an engine is what makes a video game what it is. Fallout 3 is a bad game because they took the universe and distorted it. it's exactly what happened when Fallout Tactics got made. both games are inconsistent. New Vegas, on the other hand, stayed true to the original BIS games. not only in lore, but in gameplay and style. so, excuse me for being skeptical, but I don't see how a group of people that never worked on any of the original games, could make a good sequel/spin-off. they don't understand how half of it works and why it clicks with the player. Fallout 3 wasn't all bad, but they couldn't deliver on the most important part. and if Bethesda couldn't, Masthead won't either Masthead will make a generic post-apocalyptic MMO, with the name "Fallout" stamped on it. of course there is still a chance their game will turn out decent, but Interplay should've buried that project long ago. Masthead aren't the ones to blame of course, they're the prisoners (or "hostages", not sure what's the English variant) of circumstances in this story.
