Malcador Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Does remind me of Borderlands, but must just be the way the trailer's presented more than anything else. Why has elegance found so little following? Elegance has the disadvantage that hard work is needed to achieve it and a good education to appreciate it. - Edsger Wybe Dijkstra
Skazz Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Well that trailer looks completely different to what Rage was, so I wouldn't expect there to be much connection, except for a couple weapons and enemy types maybe. It's probably going to be like old Prey and new Prey, or old Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the new ones, etc. I'm pretty sure this is going to be a Mad Max, Borderlands and Fallout mix, set in the Rage universe. That's not necessarily a bad thing, though. The new Prey was an amazing game.
Katphood Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 (edited) I doubt RAGE 2 will have random loot, to me it looks more like a marriage between the original RAGE and DOOM 4. The game does look like RAGE 1 in some ways: the buggy is still there, same goes for the the Wingstick and . Gameplay is very similar to DOOM 4 though. I am also one of the dudes who happened to enjoy the original RAGE a whole lot. One of these days I might replay it because I never got to play The Scortchers dlc.

Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all.

Spiced with a little bit of Bulletstorm. 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.

So it's basically a game using the name but made by different people? Or am I getting that wrong? Not sure if I should be excited or scared right now, so I'll just go for both.
Blodhemn Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 I just don't get the attraction of the wastelander/punk aesthetic. Never will. A generic form of ugly.
injurai Posted May 15, 2018 Posted May 15, 2018 Rage, Brink, Bulletstorm, Borderlands, Mad Max, Fortnight, Sunset Overdrive It's certainly not uncovered ground. Execution is really what I think will make this game. 1

So it's basically a game using the name but made by different people? Or am I getting that wrong? Not sure if I should be excited or scared right now, so I'll just go for both. The whole studio was basically shut down for a few years so it would be pretty much a new team unless some return. Having said that, the people who left largely seemed to be obsessed with turning Stalker into a MP game except the Metro guys who left earliest, and Sergei G himself seems to have a decent idea of what made Stalker memorable. They have done Cossacks 3 since re-opening which seems a poor fit for Stalker, but then again they'd only (?) done Cossacks1/2 prior to StalkerSoC as well and that didn't do it much harm, ultimately.

injurai Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 I believe most of the team either went to join the Metro guys at 4A (which then moved to Malta.) Or went to Vostok to work on Survivarium. A few people went on to make some indie puzzle game that was sort of pitched like a Myst, I totally forget the name and don't know if it ever came out.
Agiel Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) It was called Cradle, and it did manage to come out. And in spite of my distaste for most games of that form, I quite enjoyed it and highly recommend it to everyone here.

Katphood Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Man, I never knew that the creative director of Metro: Exodus used to be the lead designer of Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl. <- Great article by Eurogamer.net Here's the official statement from 4A Games and Deep Silver: "The development of Metro Exodus is progressing well; we are all really excited by what we are seeing. We have been constantly reviewing the games progress to ensure that we deliver a product that gamers and fans of the Metro series want and deserve, as well as keeping an eye on announcements from our competitor products. We want everyone to be able to experience what is the most ambitious Metro game to date at its absolute best and therefore we have taken the decision to move the release date to Q1 2019. "We know that this will be disappointing news for fans that had hoped to play the game this year, but also know that you will appreciate the results that this additional development time and new release date will bring. We would also like to take this opportunity to confirm that at E3 in June we will be revealing some brand new gameplay from a never before seen game environment for you to enjoy." GOTY 2019! There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.
injurai Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 TW3 and GTAV will get a pass. I do think there is a difference between a game that sells itself as a sex product and one that just depicts adult content in a sensibly contextualized manner. Some products their primary outward branding is a school girl in heat with the camera. Some people don't want that plastered all over and that's understandable. Games that are primarily sex products are better tucked away in an opt-in adult section. Not sure why Steam doesn't just implement something like that. 1
