This is something that we also emphasized visually by creating 3 completely different repair tools showing clearly which one is faster than the others, instead of the prototype colored pliers you guys can see in the current alpha build (risks of being in an alpha :)).[/QUOTE]

Thats the only thing that bug me in the video + 1 other thing

-Seing that pliers will not be exclusif to tech ( would prefer salvaged from drop off dying tech with 50 % efficiency to new owner until he die)

-And the Size of the console (first switch) OMG so fkg big !! what a console like that do near a train track …hope it will be more melting with the background environment

That is a good video. Makes me want to play some right now. Is all that banter in the game yet?


(Mustang) #45

This is even more convoluted than class specific objectives, and they were brought in to simplify things.


(maxxxxlol) #46

dat airstrike


(k1ruaa) #47

Great video!! Looks really nice.


(Hundopercent) #48

Watching that made me want to play DB. That’s a good thing. :slight_smile:

The new voices sound considerably better. Can’t wait to get those changes in the game! Good work.


(Mustang) #49

Vassili needs a Russian accent.


(TheFray) #50

Nice, looks like it is going to be a hit


(mortis) #51

Yes, I think a Russian accent is a must-have!


(mortis) #52

Nice video. Only two objectives for PAX, I guess?


(twincannon) #53

Wow. Just wow.

Have to go watch that again.


(biggyyyb) #54

nice work guys and all the best for the PAX event, +1 on the Russian accent for Vassili!

Fantastic trailer, as strych said, it made me want to play!

The most exciting part for me was the scaled down map size, seemed absolutely perfect. Some proper, intense gameplay for 2 objectives and that looked long enough, totally looking forward to trying it out. It’s also amazing just how much more polished it feels with proper voice overs, and totally had a L4D2 moment when she started pounding the dude with the cricket bat :smiley:

Slightly related, I just finished reading Halo: Glasslands and The Thursday War, there’s a char in that called Vassali who’s a Russian… jussayin.


(Stoffifee) #56

Fantastic video! :eek:

And really cool voice sounds. :slight_smile:

Cheers


(acQu) #57

It’s looking very good.

The voice overs are really well done.

The change to characters really makes the game more interesting imo.

Movement still sucks (erm … erm … ducks away)

But, great overall presentation. Also like the cards?, where you list the chars. Is it cards? Remembers me card games, which is don’t play lol, but looks cool. Like an item you can collect :slight_smile:

[QUOTE=Vahl;466378]Arty Was chosen because he had received a polish pass and new skins (used in the demo are trinity for friends and decon for foes), note that his abilities and gun are of Skyhammer :slight_smile: So it is purely a cosmetic swap, for the purpose of showing polished assets in the demo. Skyhammer is getting his airstrike back :slight_smile:

This is something that we also emphasized visually by creating 3 completely different repair tools showing clearly which one is faster than the others, instead of the prototype colored pliers you guys can see in the current alpha build (risks of being in an alpha :)).[/QUOTE]

Ahh, okay so it’s Skyhammer with Arty’s skin. It’s the artillery marker target tool that made me question it. I’ll let you off!

Little do you know Vassili was born in Russia and immigrated to England when he was young. When he first went to school he was teased relentlessly for his “funny” accent and has thus worked on blending in over the years. After a horrific explosion at the firework factory that claimed both of his parents he found himself on the streets of London. With noone to turn to and seeking purpose in life he enlisted in the forces of the british army. There he quickly climbed the ranks and became a sniper.

During his training he had fallen madly in love with his bunkmate and their relationship flourished. War broke out and he was being sent overseas for a year. The week before he left, the man knelt on his knee and asked his lady love, “Will you marry me?” She wiped a tear, said yes, and they were engaged. They agreed that when he got back in one year, they would get married. Life was going well for young Vassili, until the accident …
