Go guys!

Is there any kind of SP in the game, even a-la Quake 3 SP? I'd hate to buy the game on launch and then find all the servers empty in a few months. That happened with all the multiplayer games that I got on XBLA.

Cool shit man~~

Nice start! I think the textures are VERY noisy though, if you look at the concept the wooden planks have only volume and color information really.

So after the overdone opera sound effects the new trend is this sort of "distorted industrial riffs". It's everywhere, in every trailer. Did they even reuse Inception trailer's music ? lol

I'd like to make one at some point for portfolio purposes. I'll need to get a game together at some point, as bots are less than ideal on this one.You guys at Blizzard have been playing actual games with each other, it looks like? Just the three of you, or have you dragged any other people in? Glad to hear it played well for you! We only did one playtest of this layout that went pretty well except for one of the guys just repeatedly falling/getting rocketed or railed off the edge.

Yep we played it again today, with Simon Fuchs as well (cant remember his nickname here). Map owns. One of the best I have ever played

This map = owns. Gameplay is really fun too. Love the ambient music

What matters is the content, not one button or two

Man, it really bugs me that they're doing this skeevy linksharing setup to get in the beta. I don't want to trick my friends into clicking a particular link!

Lighting looks pretty bad indeed. The last pic looks like something out from Game bryo

I laughed when everyone said Alan Wake wasn't horror. Play that shit on the hardest difficulty setting available on your first play through and tell me that's not survival horror game play.Go ahead. Give it a shot.

P.S. - It doesn't count if you played through the first time on normal and come back to hard mode with a mastery of the mechanics.

Yep that's good advice. I was playing it on Hard and the difficulty was perfect imo.

Funny cause I never felt compelled to finish this game. I've been playing it on and off for over a year and still haven't finished it lol.

Looks like Spryfox is taking it a step further: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/3989 ... olapps.php

While this whole app store/facebook games deal facilitated breaking into the industry for talented developers, it also created a whole new generation of assholes trying to be the next millionaire with crappy products. This mindset basically destroyed Brazil's fragile games industry which is in a pretty deplorable state right now.

It's such a shame that this is a growing trend and things will only get worse, thanks to the average consumer who doesn't care buying virtual crops from an evil company as Zynga, who has reportedly stolen money from one of the poorest people in the world (Haitians).

I honestly wish that this company goes down as soon as possible and that all the greedy/stupid/douchebag people who invested in it take a huge financial blow with them.

Well it's just like life right.

If you spent 8 yrs of 80yrs alive (8 of your 80 levels) washing dishes, your skills would be incredible but now that you are legal to drive, smoke, drinks and have sex you have none of those skills in life, so it's all about balancing.

What I like to do is get a dish washer in my motor home and have my gf blowing me while I'm having a cigarette and a drink while driving. That way I will level up everything equally.

Or you could pay experts throughout the world to level up your other skills

Guys don't worry, it won't take long until Zynga and the stupid people who invested in it go down. It's already happening at this moment

Yeah, it's clearly a rip. While I can't deny that Zynga's version is very charming graphically, I think we all know that it's not a particularly big deal to take something someone else has already done the cranial work for — and more importantly, tested whether or not it's a successful concept that people want to play — and then slap some nicer paint over it. When you've got thousands of staff that's an incredible weak move, glad the masses are being alerted to it.

Zynga's version looks like something made by junior artists on macromedia flash lol
