Blade_RJ Simhq Weather man, dropping rain in your parade Hotshot Registered: 05/02/05 Posts: 7383 Loc: brasil	I don't see anything too special,aside from the locations,BUT the aliens animations looks REALLY good, for me generaly animations are what break games, i can't understand why devs often overlook this,also i can understand they want us to fear the alliens,but i hate these sequences where my npcs buddies die when i CAN save them.in this day and age they should make these scenes more dynamic,like if get to keep those you saved,and they may die later still.

Funny how many COD cliches are in that video... Blood on the screeen! Sooo real! Edited by Bib4Tuna (01/30/12 01:19 PM) _________________________ "Hello. It's me, Jesus.

Sooo real! i guess this is beta, sure there isnt a destructible enviroment,but that fake looking transparency effect could be used,fanboys need to complain harder so they'll listen.And i agree,i'm tired of the splatters, and red blurry vision, if it was a darker blurry vision,like when you strain yourself too much fine, but RED ? just give me back my health bar,thank you.

Gopher Senior Member Registered: 01/06/09 Posts: 2892 Loc: London	It looks like they're going for the CoD style of gameplay. Pretty linear but very cinematic. It's hard to extrapolate from those few minutes, but that level in particular is very scripted.

Master meh Hotshot Registered: 07/12/04 Posts: 6028 Loc: NW Alabama, USA	All of the Aliens games have been linear and story driven so it is no surprise that this one will be as well. I would love to have an open ended game where you get the whole facility to try to survive in but at the end of the day everyone seems to go with the canned script for aliens games which is frustrating. _________________________ *sigh* http://agw.bombs-away.net RoF: =AGW= Master
