    Nice art style, voice work and game play though I'm not sure about. Need to see much more of this before I have a clue what's even going on.

  • lordofthedunce #2 3 years ago

    Not a lot to go on there but it looks pretty promising. Agreed about the art style looking good.

  • Capt.VonHell #3 3 years ago

    That shotgun blast then pistoled to death was actually quite brutal. But in any case, I'm liking how this is shaping up. Definitely gonna be worth a look next year.

    Looks very nice and pretty fun. My only gripe is it seems to suffer from the same problem as Borderlands where some enemies seem to soak up far too many bullets without flinching before they die.

  • Bennicus #5 3 years ago

    Looks like Borderlands with more graphics and less loot

  • SpaceViking #6 3 years ago

    Looks fun, but it also looks like it's one of those games that have a really small field of view. I hate that.

    haha look at his pistol bounce up and down, its almost as if the player is a horse in a dressage competition.

    "I just hope they dont make the same basic mistakes they did with Stalker since its the same team developing it"

    Errrrr..No Splash Damage are developing this title in conjunction with Bethesda.
    They are best known for the ET Quake Wars & Wolfy T games

    looks pretty sweet. like the on the fly class change. art style is reem also. interested...

  • djed #11 3 years ago

    if he was a sneaky, stealthy 'operative', why did he spend 5 minutes at the front gate trying to rack up headshots with his brahs?

  • CptSupermarket #12 3 years ago

    That looks absolutely awesome! Cannot wait etqw was also awesome!

    That looks like a list of how not to make an FPS game:

    -sluggish movement,
    -exaggerated animations,
    -underpowered weapons with no discernable recoil designed to simply have the trigger held down,
    -weapons modeled with ejection ports on the wrong side of the gun for no reason,
    -a lean function that is pointless because it doesn't go more than about 6 inches from the centre of mass,
    -a really obviously contrived excuse for the whole level (do you really need a giant crawling robot to cut through a container?), and
    -a map made of containers (I assume "crate city" was already taken).

    This is just a mashup of other people's ideas, complete with their mistakes, without anything to really make it stand out. Coming from the Enemy Territory team, though, this doesn't surprise me at all - Quake Wars was much the same. Here though, we have the added problem that enemies and allies are impossible to tell apart, and they all have absolutely miniscule heads.

    I also like the way he decides to be an 'operative' and then proceeds to just go and attack frontally anyway, and it doesn't appear to make any difference to anything. Classes in shooters are meaningless if you can just chop and change at will and there's no real downside to any of them. And doesn't it all look much too easy? He didn't die once in that clip - unless it was edited out. But why would you edit out player deaths in an MP game demo reel unless you wanted it to look easy?

    grafix look jerky

  • barnettbeans #15 3 years ago

    Looks interesting but do we really need another badly lit point and shoot game title? Seriously use more than one art style please and take the FPS to new areas. Rant over!

  • Quixz #16 3 years ago

    Looks very cool.

  • Freek #17 3 years ago

    Looks promissing, it was delayed untill well into 2010, so plenty of time to blance things out.

  • magicpocket #18 3 years ago

    This looks so stunning and original.

    Cannot wait to play this with my friends.

  • Accordi0n #19 3 years ago

    Killzone 2 meets Borderlands?

  • magicpocket #20 3 years ago

    L4D + Killzone 2 + Borderlands + Mirrors Edge + Enemy Territory = Brink.

  • Mogul #21 2 years ago

    The art style is indeed nice but Im not convinced yet. The Gameplay seems not very innovative except of the smart movement system. I hope the class system is balanced, need to see more.

  • Quixz #22 2 years ago

    Looks very good to me.
