Awesome, soon there will be an answer to my question from the QuakeCon panel last year!

Just checked out a couple of the gameplay videos and I am glad that the player speed is still fast paced. Can't wait!

I noticed when the Dark Staff is said to catch enemy bullets in the weapons demo it appears to catch shell casings not bullets.

[KareBear]

Game looks great regardless,just pointing that out.

The voice acting is atrocious but I suppose it fits the cheesy over-the-top theme. I loved the gore effect of eyeballs sticking to the screen, it was also cool to see the enemy begging for mercy like in the original game.

[Tetsuo]

Yeah I'm glad they fixed the enemy begging. That bugged me about the reboot originally... also.. it looks like they fixed the priest porridge so it's no longer a floating rotating bucket but it's now a bowl like in the original. I already know I want a mod that moves the magazine on the MP40 to the bottom so it's not like a STEN gun though.

Yeah from what I've seen it's pretty spot-on for the tone of the game.

Singleplayer is looking pretty nice. I remember asking about how the AI would be handled a while back and it looks spot on from what I can see: just the right balance of slightly suicidal aggressiveness with moderate tactics.

I do have one concern about the HUD, however: Will the on-screen "x2" combo multiplier pop ups and "1 Enemy Killed" messages be optional? I know having a score is a hallmark feature of this era of FPS games, but ROTT (or any other FPS of the time that I can think of) didn't require constant visual feedback for every point you earned. It's unnecessary visual clutter, and sorry to say, but it reminds me of the constant "+100" xp kill messages in Call of Duty's multiplayer. Such on-screen reminders aren't really needed when the splattering of blood and ludicrous gibs are more than plenty to inform you that your shots are on the mark.

Again, just a simple option to turn these score messages off and leaving the critical messages such as weapon pickups, Ludicrous Gibs, and such enabled would suffice.

Yes, you will be able to turn off the combo x2,x3,x4 messages and most on screen text. While most of our guys love it some of our old schoolers definitely want to turn it off. So, we're gonna let you!

[DaveyDoomsday]

Glad you guys are digging the gameplay! MORE SOON. RELEASE DATE SOON. EVERYTHING SOON.

Wait 'til you hear the other 4 characters. It's totally spot on. But if you hate it you can always turn it off. We're cool like that ;-)

[Player Lin]

Wow...just no comment at all due to its awesomeness...can't wait to play it...


I just want a mod to change the Health display to something pure numbers or something except that meter bar...

[Ronin]

Seems you guys really nailed it, well done, looks great, will buy.

Thanks for this! Every little bit of news I hear has just been better and better. You and the rest of Interceptor have been doing a stellar job on the game, and I eagerly await its release.

[Striker]

I hope the release date is before July, or at the very least pre-orders.

[Kathy]

What do you need a preorder?

[----]

I want the release date to be between August 5th 7:17PM and August 6th 3:42 AM. An alternative would be a preorder being possible between July 17th 8:41 AM and July 19th 9:56 AM.

THat is important, so I really hope it is then.

[TerminX]

This is looking a lot better than what I've seen from you guys before. Definitely looking forward to this!

The team increased and it is always a difference if it is paid work or sparetime work. You can concetrate on it without getting other, paid work in the way.

Originally they said the game would come out sometime between late last year, and the first half of this year. Which means if they're going to stick with their promise, it needs to come out in roughly 15 days.
Personally I'll be pissed off if it doesn't come out within the next 5 weeks because I want to play this during my holidays.

[Kathy]

What's the point? You probably can easily finish it within a weekend. It's not a 100 hour RPG.

[Micky C]

*Assuming that I actually have a weekend of spare time during the semester.

I wonder how long the singleplayer campaign is anyway.

[Lunick]

Micky is a pretty busy man and a good student

It's because I've mistaken him for you, Lunick.

[Inspector Lagomorf]

If the singleplayer campaign is as long as it was in the original game, there's no way it'll take "just a weekend".

[Frederik Schreiber]

I just played through the game - It took me around 10-12 hrs.

[Kathy]

Yep, just a weekend then.

With no breaks? And 100% of the secrets found?

Bear in mind some of us have full-time jobs.
