Cube Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 That's standard for all Activision pages supposedly, so I wouldn't read anything into it... Looking at the code and how that whole section is labelled "ATVI" suggests this to be the case.
Ronnie Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Just what the gaming world needs, another generic first person shooter.
Cube Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Just what the gaming world needs, another generic first person shooter. I'm guessing you don't play many FPS games. The genre is massively diverse.
Fierce_LiNk Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I'm guessing you don't play many FPS games. The genre is massively diverse. The genre is, yes. But, you have to admit, there's nothing that shouts "new and original' from that trailer. Actually, I got nothing from it, at all. What is known exactly about this game?
Ramar Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 The genre is, yes. But, you have to admit, there's nothing that shouts "new and original' from that trailer. Actually, I got nothing from it, at all. What is known exactly about this game? I thought the iPhone (assume it'll cover Android/Windows Phone) integration looked interesting, don't know of any games currently doing that. Although the video didn't really tell you at all what it was about/how it worked.

But, it would've been nice to have that info now. Or, at least, to have something substantial.
Agent Gibbs Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 did they have Space ship customisation in that vid? hopefully its a Star Wars Galaxies, meets Fallout, meets Boarderlands type game in reality it will turn out to be Halo (i'd even bet they'd be arrogant enough to have it in the same universe and the Halo era was the golden age)
Cube Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I don't really know how the space ship fits in. It sounded like there was this one city, and the object of the game was exploring this devastated/overrun Earth.
Retro_Link Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Watching the video again, everything also looks kind of generic and boring at this stage... from the logo, to the 'main characters'... these guardians of the city, that look like very secondary characters you'd find in a Star Wars or Mass Effect game; they don't have the same coolness/presence of Master Chief at this stage. Also regarding the city... have they learnt nothing from Majora's Mask! :p also wouldn't it always be in partial shade. With the Space Ship, I guess the first game in this series is very Earth based, and then towards the end... once this Orb 'wakes up' as I assume it will, you'll venture out into space (Halo 4 has an orb thing too :p), where the other games will be largely based. There's that solar system style image @ 0:15. Voice over narrative guy is terrible.
Wii Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 (edited) The quote is @ 1:08. You got to think this is their subtle way of saying it coming to Wii U despite not being able to confirm it yet. Edited February 18, 2013 by Retro_Link threads merged
Retro_Link Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 So is this more of a MMO type game? Just seems kind of dull to me, and that's the vibe those types of games often give me.
Daft Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Could be the game that Dust 514 should have been.
Retro_Link Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 Little bit risky for Bungie no? I never think of it as being a hugely popular genre on consoles. I guess they have their name behind the project, but not sure it'll be anywhere near as popular (at least immediately) as Halo was, and it looks like they're putting a lot into developing it.
Caris Posted February 24, 2013 Posted February 24, 2013 Looks like Halo, Skyrim and Boarderlands mixed together which can only mean good things.
Daft Posted May 24, 2013 Posted May 24, 2013 I fucking hate hoIGN just take videos and then watermark them. Here's a non-cunt version.
