looks awesome I really can't wait I just hope my pc can cope with it.

Removed my tag as its not needed

Zombies? With wrenches? That you fight using a wrench? That say they are sorry as they attack you? I find the similarities between this game and system shock 2 amazing. This is a completely new game, of course, but somehow making your basic melee weapon a wrench makes me feel like they have payed homage to SS2 in a good way.


Also - DON'T SCREW WITH MR BUBBLES.

Congrats Zaggy.

You are now on the same level as Depot <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" />

I liked the part where the thing crashed through the hallway and the water surged in. Wicked.

I watched this <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTWu6xZHAg8" target="_blank">Bioshock Commentary Trailer 15minutes</a>

So far, from what I've seen in the extensive footage is there are about three enemies... Splicers, Big Daddy, Sentry copters/bots, and little sister. That's it. Three friggn enemies. While the trailer totally rocked my socks, and the idea of watching npc fight npc intelligently is appealing.. I'd just get tired of fighting the same three dudes over and over. It looks beautiful, and the gameplay is no doubt unique. Also I've only seen water rendering that rivaled this in Half Life 2. However, it seems like it may go down the same road as F.E.A.R. and try to give more substance with the few characters it has opposed to giving you a barrage of characters and an equal amount of substantial gameplay. Seriously though, three enemies? Little sister can't fight back from what I've seen so she doesn't count as four. Anywho, don't get obsessed on a game over any trailer. Wait for gameplay footage to start coming out before you get your hopes up.

Those are my thoughts on the game.

Might want to look for other footage, I've seen many more.

Sub_zer0

Plus they are not going to reveal how many things are in the game it would just spoil the game when you first came across a new enemy and you already new about it would spoil it you will probally find they are the most common but not the only.

TychoCelchuuu

In addition the ones you named, there's zombie dude with wrench, crazy nurses, and guy who throws bombs. And keep in mind this is only from what they've chosen to show us, which is obviously not the entire contents of the game.

Omegaman

Oh man. My "underwater city setting" needs haven't been this satisfied since Aquanox 2!

That was pretty impressive.

Liku

Looks amazing, I hope my PC runs it well and it better have come co-op!

Like SS2, the Psi abilities better not be necessary. I never used them, they kinda ruined the setting for me.

Paranoia2MB

<b>imho from what i've gathered from the trailer:</b>

Looks nice, very nice. Will I enjoy this game? Probably not. I was expecting something more System Shock 1/2. Not old school gang and almost western shootup with wrenches, pistols, shotguns, tommy guns and a psi power that you inject magic crack into your veins for more power. and oh. hand grenades.

I see no money form or upgrade parts (Ss2).


Too sum up:
Looks great, gameplay looks boring. A demo would help to decide more.


I'll check it out some more though.

Oh come on, if you cut out everything but the combat in SS2 and made a video of that it would look exactly the same. There are definitely upgrade parts and money is the entire basis of the game (it's called Adam).

is that bob above the door in the opening room? It looks like bob, pipe and all.

Sub_zer0

it says in comtry trailer that a lot of the people in the city have moded them selfs.

The macgic Crack was actualy (I think) just a mana potion (psy hypo for SS). The second snippit shows the character actualy getting a new Plasmid (genetic altering item, akin to Cybernetic Modules in SS2) that gives him the Lighting tossing power.
Plasmids are bought (I think) With Adam, just like upgrades for your self in SS2

I am seriously failing to see ANTIHNG above the door...

I wouldn't be overly suprised if "Bob" was there, he seems to be perfect for them <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tounge.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":p" border="0" alt="tounge.gif" /> (and the standard depticition of "Bob" fits the art style of the posters I ahve seen in other videos)



(slack more)

I was referring to the second movie that PerfectionsFlaw linked.

Here's a crop of it
<img src="http://www.dspsrv.com/~hjw/bob.jpg" border="0" alt="IPB Image" />

And here is bob

I don't know what you people are talking about. This is Bob: <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/skulk.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="::skulk::" border="0" alt="skulk.gif" />

Thansal

you sir are correct

this
<img src="http://www.subgenius.com/Graffix/dobbs.jpg" border="0" alt="IPB Image" />
is "Bob"

J.R. "Bob" Dobbs, that LIVING GOD WHO WALKS THIS PLANET EARTH IN HUCKSTER'S SHOES.

PRAISE HIS SWEET NAME
-- OR BURN IN SLACKLESSNESS TRYING NOT TO!

Thansal

You know, it only seems right to have a Dev derail a thread to spread the name of "Bob"

Drfuzzy

bob uses natural male enhancement lololol

Necro

ss2 holds one thing over this...coop.

So, you can't shoot little girls in this game, contrary to what was previously advertised. Discuss.

Where do you get this disturbing piece of news?

I have yet to see anything that keeps you from slaughtering a big Daddy and then going after a little sister.

And necro, who says there will be no coop? (Honestly curious here)

Particularly: <!--QuoteBegin-Ken Levine+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Ken Levine)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->For example, in BioShock, you cannot harm the little Sister in any way… you cannot use your weapons against a Little sister, or set her on fire, or send your swarm of insects after her like you can the other AIs in the world. All we allow the players to do is to make the moral choice of harvesting the Adam from them, a process they will not survive, that’s true, or to save them, to turn them back into what appears to be normal little children. And that choice is not graphically shown in any way. It is really sort of suggested.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Thansal

huh, I had not seen that before.

Well, you still can kill them (though it isn't shown...)

I could have sworn I saw the death of one of them in one of these videos......

In fact, yes, the second one linked in this thread does kill one of them.

I also found on on fileplanet that shows the player taking out a Big Daddy and then having the little sister cowering in terror from you (though I can't remember how it ends)
