[Dacrim]

So i was checking out what games from comic con gamespot would be showing today and i noticed this!

http://comic-con.gamespot.com/live-show/live-show-day-3/

PS2 is on the schedule on the right side of the page

[ruskyandrei]

That's weird, I thought they said they weren't going to be at CC. And there's also the press embargo until the 17th o0

[basti]

Ohhhh. :D

[Hamma]

[Dacrim]

[Bags]

They're on darksiders II. I imagine ps2 will be on in 10 - 20 mins.

I saw all of those too. Ahh the uninformed.

[Hamma]

Wow :lol: Those are some silly comments.

[Duckforceone]

at least he answered both my questions about AA and leadership abilities... :D

you can see the stuff from around 01:10:00

[Greenthy]

was good, although I ended up watching in replay so no key :)

PS: I hope higby noticed 40+30+10 is not 100% :)

[haticK]

Sometimes I forget not everyone on the planet knows how epic this game is going to be

[TerminatorUK]

"Vanu weapons will have heat mechanics"

Hmm interesting...

[Tatwi]

Wow could the interviewer get any younger? I felt old watching this...

[ringring]

If I was to describe Higby in that interview in one word, it would be "confident".

:groovy:

[TerminatorUK]

Damn those Iron Sky babes right after the end of the PS2 interview :O

Accidental info leak... 4th faction confirmed!

[TerminatorUK]

They are silly comments but you're never going to please everyone.

They'll be CS / COD kiddies that cling to small-scale, arena/round based games as they can't take change just like the knuckle-dragging death-matchers.

Their loss if they are too ignorant to play a quality F2P game, however, I firmly believe PS2 will have a much wider appeal and much larger playerbase.

I'll eat my own hat if it isn't mega-popular; the advertising, media coverage and community interaction has been nothing short of perfect this time around - a complete mirror image to the first game.

"Vanu weapons will have heat mechanics"

Hmm interesting...Heat mechanics? As an alternative to reloading? That might be interesting.

[Carnage]

Damn those Iron Sky babes right after the end of the PS2 interview :O

the movie is a bit average TBH, it has some funny points, like that Sarah Palin is the President of the USA and she got there by promoting a moon mission called "black to the moon"...

[Greenthy]

Heat mechanics? As an alternative to reloading? That might be interesting.

Don't know, it's something that can potentially draw alot of 'balance' issues:

For example good ol' Mech Warrior 4
You'd take a madcat mark 2 with 7 lasers, to almost instakill other mechs,
then you'd blow your coolant and take it easier.

Or more recent SWTOR and high burst vs sustainable dmg


It could be just a plain old reload mechanic, but then that'd just be silly to waste (developing) time on tbh.

Maybe he was talking about their "clips" being "heat sinks" like in Mass Effect?

Well I was thinking maybe more to balance lack of bullet drop but could be.

Might be a balance feature with the Lasher to prevent spamming?

ALIENS!

[Carnage]

I have a Vanu Logo, Mat is refusing to answer my question 10:33 lol... still got an answer!

[JimmyOmaha]

Exciting times. Not much new info here, mush for the uninformed. Tough, I'll watch anything with Higby/T-Ray in it.

Beta train did make me giggle. :]

[Arovien]

Thanks for posting the video. Nothing new but still awesome to watch Higby being a boss.

[Rat]

Mr. Higby mentioned leadership types being able to set up spawn points, hopefully he was just talking about the squad leader spawn mechanic and not some device that can be tossed in a closet.
