TSBasilisk Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 A few details off the top of my head: The aim is somewhere between the new XCOM and a digital version of the boardgame. They do not want this to be an FPS. Asynchronous MP will exist; some abilities, like rolling back the enemy's movement, will not work there. Synchronous MP is possible, but still a ways off. Expect to die 3 out of every 4 runs, if not more. PC is primary platform, with any ports produced being downscaled from the PC version. Cross-platform play is an aim.
Azdeus Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 That sounds awesome, I just got the site back as you posted, so thanks! Read through the interview, and I'm positive about what I read. Good stuffs! Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Undecaf Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Speaking of WH40K: Details emerge on Space Hulk turn-based tactical game Very much looking forward to this. Perkele, tiädäksää tuanoini!"It's easier to tolerate idiots if you do not consider them as stupid people, but exceptionally gifted monkeys."
Hurlshort Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Speaking of WH40K: Details emerge on Space Hulk turn-based tactical game I was a bit confused by the interview, why didn't they mention Chaos Gate at all? It's not like this is the first Warhammer game done up like Xcom. I'm excited nonetheless, Chaos Gate was a blast.
Azdeus Posted March 1, 2013 Posted March 1, 2013 Mmm... Chaos Gate, good stuffs. I played it a little bit before I got my hands on Jagged Alliance 2, so I sadly stopped playing it. I do remember the soundtrack being exceptional though. Oh, and Ultrasmurfs... Frigging Ultrasmurfs. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

They got some publicity on big gaming sites and together with the Paypal they might get 1,500,000. If they set up a new Kickstarter for this though, I might cancel my pledge for Dreamfall Chapters.

BruceVC Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 Guys great news, Metro Last Light is scheduled for a May release . Yaaaaaaay. Its good that the intellectual property of THQ has not only getting bought but also being completed. Metro 2033 was the best post-apocalyptic survival game I have ever played.

Tale Posted March 2, 2013 Posted March 2, 2013 I doubt Sony would follow suit. They would crush Microsoft if Microsoft goes through with it and they don't. "Show me a man who "plays fair" and I'll show you a very talented cheater."

JFSOCC Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Saw this trending on social media CliffyB chimes in on Nickel and Diming in Games Industry Valve has Goodwill EA lost all theirs a long long time ago. Remember: Argue the point, not the person. Remain polite and constructive. Friendly forums have friendly debate. There's no shame in being wrong. If you don't have something to add, don't post for the sake of it. And don't be afraid to post thoughts you are uncertain about, that's what discussion is for.---Pet threads, everyone has them. I love imagining Gods, Monsters, Factions and Weapons.
Volourn Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Yet all this 'goodwill' EA has lots yet millions of people still buy their games. L0LZ Seems to me, theys till have lots of good will. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.
