D3ads Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 when gearbox makes a better game than iD and its going to be clear iD is as worthless as 3d realms and Carmack can feel free to die in a tragic rocket accident with no loss to video gamerzz :roll: Looks pretty cool, interested to learn more. Guys look a bit too much like Combine soldiers though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
st0lve Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Is this serious? They are making a game that is so close to iDs rage. I mean from what I see on the cover, there are post apoc elements, and it's sci-fi and it has motorized stuff. With rpg elements? Wow, iDs game also is suppose to have some minor rpg elements. This is just ... What's up with this stuff, 2 major companies working on "the same project" without knowing that the other company is doing the same thing? Ok 4 player coop, yeah whatever that doesn't sound so ground-breaking to me. Maybe it's coop ala Left 4 Dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReNo Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Hehe, could just be a humorous if unfortunate coincidence. With all the Fallout fanaticism these days I guess post-apoc games are back in fashion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bl1tz Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Dallas game development Seriously though congrats to everyone at Gearbox who's working on this. Looks like a cool new universe and you can't complain about rockin 4 player co-op in a Mad Max type universe! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphod Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 The more post-apoc games the better! Can't wait to see more screens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeta Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 I thought gb were working on an aliens game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izuno Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Many developers work on multiple titles at one time, though usually not all the titles are in the same stages of development. GB is also working on BiA: Hell's Highway which I assume is further along than Aliens or this one. Helps keep people busy and balanced with right amount of work across a studio as titles ramp up and down. So we got this one, Aliens and BiA3..... Anyway "Diablo meets Mad Max" sounds awesome compared to most game pitches I evaluate which usually go something like: "Halo meets WoW meets Super Mario...it's going to be the best game ever!" :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squirrelly Posted August 15, 2007 Report Share Posted August 15, 2007 Haha, pure awesomeness. GJ Mike Anyhow, by the looks of it, this should definitely be fun (COOP FTW!), and any game with an apocalyptic theme is worthy of my 60 smackaroos.

Taylor Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Is this serious? They are making a game that is so close to iDs rage. I mean from what I see on the cover, there are post apoc elements, and it's sci-fi and it has motorized stuff. With rpg elements? Wow, iDs game also is suppose to have some minor rpg elements. Well id are just making a game engine with some loose semblance of a game hanging off it, like they usually do these days. I don't really think anyone is excited about it. Ok 4 player coop, yeah whatever that doesn't sound so ground-breaking to me. Maybe it's coop ala Left 4 Dead. It's funny when magazines who get a scoop on something and go over the top. I remember when CVG got told of Halo 3 letting you change what your character looks like - hardly amazing innovative - yet it got a whole page devoted to it, 50% of which was the text "HALO GOES SUPERNOVA!!!"
