gaggle64 Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Can't knock 'em for trying something new. There's something very Minecraft-esque about the conception. Also the art design has "Kinect" written all over it.
flameboy Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Looks awesome. Sure contrasts will be made with Minecrafts survival mode but I'm hoping there is enough there to make it something way way better.
Daft Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 I like how they've gone from Gears of War's people-built-like-houses to now everyone looking skeletal.
Jimbob Posted December 11, 2011 Posted December 11, 2011 Looks good, can't fault Epic for breaking out of the Gears module.
CoolFunkMan Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 I do like the game's presentation. It's nice to see Epic actually going with a more vibrant art style, rather than dull greys and browns. However, is it just me, or does the concept sound like a complete Minecraft rip-off? Still, Minecraft is great, so anything similar should be good, right?
Shorty Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 is it just me, or does the concept sound like a complete Minecraft rip-off? Yes it's just you. Except for the two people who mentioned it before you
Happenstance Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Epic have mentioned in an interview somewhere as well that Minecraft was an inspiration
Cube Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 It's then night/day thing which sounds like the main Minecraft inspiration.
The Peeps Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Looks interesting... I'd definitely play a game that focusses more on the survival/defence part of Minecraft.
Wesley Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Since when was the idea of monsters/danger at night a Minecraft thing?
Cube Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Since when was the idea of monsters/danger at night a Minecraft thing? Since Gears "invented" hoard mode.
CoolFunkMan Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Minecraft: Collect resources during the day, use those resources to build a fortress and equipment. Survive the night when monsters attack, and defend your fortress. Fortnite: Collect resources during the day, use those resources to build a fortress and equipment. Survive the night when monsters attack, and defend your fortress. I'm not saying that the concept is purely Minecraft, it's the execution of it.
Wesley Posted December 12, 2011 Posted December 12, 2011 Since Gears "invented" hoard mode. That's... not an answer as such...
