[Iced_Eagle]

I'm sure a big reason why this is console-only is because PC mainstream is going slower than consoles right now adopting multiple-cpu technology... I'm sure that if we had 3 cores like the X360 mainstream, then they would probably give us this.

Developers are working on their multi-cpu engines, and so that's why games made for consoles may not always see a PC port for a while... Until the PC gets better mainstream technology.

 

[Unfocused]

Looks... scripted. Just looking at the title makes it look scripted... It's CoD after all.

 

[theotherguy]

lol obviously its a fixed gun they did that same thing with the COD:FH for console and it didnt look anything like that in game.

red steel for the revolution will not have a fixed gun

"ww2 games dont interest me/I dont like ww2 games"

then what the hell are you doing in this thread? seriously some of you are just trolls ..dont like the genre dont play it simple as that ...I'm not a big fan of counterstrike ..but do you see me in the CS:S section moaning about how counterstrike is so "yesterday" that it's "the same shit over and over again"? your comments arent appreciated because regardless of the quality of any ww2 game you will NOT buy it because you dont like the genre ...so why even bother criticising something you never had the intention of playing?

god it's like you cant let anyone else enjoy something you dont. Well here's a little secret ..WW2 games SELL, INCREDIBLY well too, they will ALWAYS be made because believe it or not the majority of people who buy ww2 games are NOT hardcore gamers, they're ww2 fans/buffs ..so regardless if some of you think that it's "be done to death" or it"lame" it will still sell


damn, the shit some of you come up with .. "oh snap guys lets like go to xbox 360 because they sell our games better!" ..that's just a lot of bullshit, did you read the article I linked to? it distinctly said this game was console only (just like Call of Duty Big Red One was) but that there would be other call of duty games that come out for pc

It's not really a genre. The genre would be first person shooters. It's an incredibly over exploited sub genre. But that's not really the point, I like the WW2 setting too. The fact that they make so damn many of them isn't the point either, if it sells it sells. The problem is that they completely lack originality. So many of these games play exactly the same, even between completely different franchises.

Also, they're almost entirely watered down Teen rated mainstream crap. There's no sense of authenticity or any attempt to really convey the true horror of war. As far as plot or narrative go, they're incredibly bad. Instead of actual developed characters they drop in History Channel style info clips between missions, which isn't enough. It just shows how they failed to tell you what was going on within the context of the game.

And now there's another pre-rendered trailer. The reason it was pre-rendered was to make the game seem more exciting than it really is. In reality it's just the same shit you've been shoveled for the past four games, as well as the MOH series and probably a few others.

 

[DeusExMachina]

BiA has everything you could desire in a WWII game. Characters you can care about, a narrative, lots of blood.

 

[Bad^Hat]

o_o

How they can even call that a trailer is beyond me. And no PC = no interest from me.

I can pretty much say that about any genre ...creepy game where things go bump in the night, done to death, military online shooter, done to death, military online shooter with tactical elements, yup been done, military online shooter with vehicles, check, military shooter with vehicles with tactical elements ..yup done that too. Why are many games carbon copies of each other with some variance thrown in to make it seem new? ...it's because games cost a shitload to make and publishers want a guaranteed return for their investment ..so why take a risk when you can just rehash yesterday's idaes, throw in the latest fancy tech and add a few small features and viola, you have a whole new franchise to leech money off of. WW2 games are guarenteed sellers and why mess with a tried and proven recipe for success? does it make for good gaming? not necessarily but immediate returns are their goal, not building an audience

 

[weskerQ8]

impressive, really impressive

 

[torso boy]

Prerendered, just like their TV ads. Its just a teaser though.

I fully understand why they do it, but that doesn't mean I have to like it. And while there are plenty of overdone settings/themes/gameplay concepts ... WW2 is far and away the most exploited. There are a ton of these games, and yet they're all so very very similar. None have worthwhile stories, they all give historical background in precisely same way, and most of them even follow the exact same gameplay formula. It's ridiculous. I can't think of a single good WW2 game, besides the ones that started the whole trend.

Who knows, the PS3 may be capable of rendering games like this.

 

[Gargantou]

Who knows, the PS3 may be capable of rendering games like this.

And the XB360 too if the devs learn to take advantage of the hardware and grow more efficient..
I mean, look at MGS2 and then MGS3 and compare the two graphically, imo MGS3 looks alot better..
So imagine what XB360(and PS3) devs will be able to do when they get used to the hardware..
Anyway, I think, if the PS3 can render games like htis in a playable form, then I think the XB360 can too, if you just know how to code... Because the PS3 isn't a generation ahead of the XB360..(Atleast not by what we've seen and know so far )


You guys are aware that this is supposed to come out for the 360 too right?

 

[Przemek]

Look at games such as BLACK for Xbox and PS2 - developers can get magical things out of hardware they know, so I know what you mean, Gargantou Only if developers would optimize their engines so well for the PC...

I've heard CoD3 is not under development by Infinity Ward. It's being made by the same devs who did the console versions, such as Big Red One, etc.
So you might say CoD3 is not an official CoD3
Infinity Ward is working on a PC *and* X360 title(s) right now.

 

[Gargantou]

Ugh, I raelly thought that Big Red One felt very mediocre.. The real CoD games(originals) were better by far atleast imo..
Nice that Infinity Ward is working on a PC and 360 title(s), I assume these are going to be new IPs?
Edit: Oh yeah I remember, wasn't there a leak or something a while back that they'd be making forms of "modern day" FPSes in the true spirit of CoD etc?

That article is the best news I've heard in a while. When I saw those commercials for Big Red One, it was blatantly obvious that the PS2 could never in it's dreams produce graphics anywhere near that level, yet it was so obvious they were trying to make it seem like those were the in game graphics.

False advertisement, misleading adds - call it what you want, I call Activision crooks for airing that commercial. I feel sorry for the suckers who bought the game thinking it would look like that. Pre-rendered game advertisements are completely crooked and it should be a crime. Show the game play or don't show anything.

Activision should be ordered to allow anyone with a receipt (to prove they didn't steal it) to be able to return the game for a full refund.

I think pre-rendered should be okay for ads, but then there should be also a clear disclaimer, as you sort of pointed out, that this is not INGAME OR INENGINE graphics, I'm fine with like 25% of the trailer being some form of pre-rendered intro/outro and the other 75% being fully composed of ingame footage if you follow what I mean.

Exactly. It should say "Not actual game footage" on the television ad. The same thing happened with children's toys here. They had to include a disclaimer "This toy can not actually fly", or "This toy can not actually shoot".

Yes, it may seem obvious that the toy or game in the add doesn't do that or look like that, but it isn't always, and not to everyone - especially when they blend computer animation. It's false advertisement.

They actually got in trouble for that.

[DeusExMachina]

I'd rather play Big Red One over the original PC CoD. A lot more fun and varied.

 

[Pauly]

Thats not gameplay just so you guys know.... Does not even look rendered in real time. you can see how he moves really fast and then slow sometimes and how the nazi grabs his gun and wrestles over it? Could be an implication in the game- but that version was NOT real gameplay. Its just a trailor. If infiinity ward's trailer of COD3 was in real - gameplay - Trust me--- they would have a "Real-time Real in-game gameplay" all over the picture.


Disapointing trailer QQ

 

[Parlez]

OMG! I am getting the PS3 now, That was soooo amazing how the German soldier knocked the weapon off of your player so you had to take his. I just can not believe what video games are coming to. I remember playing Mario Cart on the good old 64! :|

 

[MultiVaC]

Have you even read the thread? That's not what the game will be like.

 

[Parlez]

Yes I have read the thread. It was only mentioned here like 10 times. I guess I have to add a smile thing in there to make it obvious for people :|

 

[tvharti]

the background music was awesome especially in the second half of the trailer.

anyone knows if this is a "borrowed" music or if they did im themselves for the game?

Ding!
