Saw this...

and instantly thought of this

[Waaghals]

I like the look of this game, apart from the guy's face.

Hoping it turns out well.

[Liamario]

Also took the liberty of blurring some of it, just to give it that accurate feel.

Thank you. Could do with at least another couple of tears though. But good job!

Yes I am aware you can only have one screen tear- The human eye can sometimes see multiple ones; I really want the full effect.

[TheSeks]

lol, PS3.

It didn't look that bad on PS3 in motion. Also LP2 plays FAR better on PS3 in comparison to like, LP1.

Also this is looking from screenshots to be more "survival horror" or just even more "survival" than LP1 AND 2. Which is good because that's something I feel the series is sorely in need of. Instead of the stun lock systems, it should be about looking for thermal energy and surviving the Akrid.

But it's pretty much too late for me to consider a LP3. Because LP2 was basically a redux of LP1 that didn't fix LP1's issues (STUN LOCK STUN LOCK STUN LOCK. GrenadeGrenade. ROLLROLLROLLROLLROLLTOABUSEI-FRAME) so I'm not hyped for this.

A big MEH. I really love the second one. Franchise had so much potential. Damn you Capcom.

The second one was appalling.

[shinobi602]

Graphics look amazing, but main character looks derp.

[Aguirre]

Screens look ok, but the main character needs a helmet or something when he's outside. Running around an ice planet with your head exposed looks really dumb.

but his warm smile will melt the snow :)

Obligatory "It looks just like Gears of War" post.

[Pylon_Trooper]

What're the chances this'll feel, say, more like rote TPS than Lost Planet?

Probably sadly quite high. At least LP1/2 felt rather unique.

Lost Fracture Planet.

Oh, there you are. I was wondering where you were. :p

Over/Under on this selling even worse than LP2? :p

[BladeoftheImmortal]

screw the haters, im just glad we finally have a main character with a beard.

[Pylon_Trooper]

Ah Seks, I was burned with Front Mission Evolved...but that was quite the genre leap. This? Well. Apathy creeps. I'll keep an intrigued ear out, but as it stands, I think this might do worse than LP2.

I'm just quite disappointed with the lack of...well...mechanical flair we've seen thus far. We get a VS scooped off the Mech Assault cutting room floor and I'm yet to see Mr. Beard wield anything like a car-sized shotgun. Early days, but still.

You never know. But we can safely infer!

[Omikaru]

All looks okay to me. People moaning about the main character's derpy-ness are the ones responsible for bald angry men holding guns in every game. He looks fine. He has a bit of shit-eating grin, but that's more interesting than what you'd typically get...

Going to wait for gameplay before I write this one off or decide to get it (I'm still very sceptical about the developer), but the screens look promising from a graphical/art direction/character design standpoint.

[Fezan]

may be still early stage of development.

(i want this to be good )

Co-op is confirmed, just not for the story.

[Alextended]

I think he looks a bit like the Assassin's Creed dude.

Maybe combined with his AC1 look, not the latest stuff.

Anyway, I hope it's not just a linear shooter, a mission structure would be best, as long as it's not cut up in little pieces like LP2.

Seeing it in person, it really is one of the best looking UE3 games from a third party studio. Not sure if it was a PC version being shown but we were told it was not.

As good as Asura's Wrath and Arkham City?

[Vulcano's assistant]

His face reminds me of this actor

Hello Destructoid!

[Feindflug]

As good as Asura's Wrath and Arkham City?

Is Asura's Wrath that good looking? I've only played the demo btw. :P

About the graphics of the game, it looks good for a third party UE3 game but the big question is how stable the frame-rate is and how well the game animations are.

Either way we're looking into a game from a C-tier studio so it will probably be best to keep our expectations low.

[george_us]

Graphically doesn't look bad. But I was never overly concerned about the graphics.

Yeah the game actually looks pretty damn good but I'm pretty sure this isn't going to be nearly as interesting as the previous LP games from a gameplay point of view.

The scale and details put into the animation make it impressive to me, I'm sure people could point out something like a low resolution but from my point of view it was awe inspiring.

Spark have been using UE3 for as long as any 3rd party, if even they haven't got it stable at this point it will be stocking.

[Astery]

Gotta add more randomness!

this is what i saw.
Not impressed with the screens, it's too westernized and different from 1 and 2 for my liking.

[Frankfurt]

Best director in this generation, don't diss.

[Krev]

Best director in this generation, don't diss.

Uh, no. He's good though.

[Pylon_Trooper]

Certainly a tale of redemption. Pleasantly surprised. Is this thread now about Ben Affleck being better in the director's chair? If so, very good.

[Solid07]

Nice! They've decided to go back to their roots from the first game instead of copying other generic military shooters. Day 1 Buy.

By having a completely people work on it, by having a new cast, first person in mech and having a open world.

[Discotheque]

Hans Gruber is that you?

Was going to post this. Resemblance is uncanny.

If they get Alan Rickman to do the voice it's GOTY.

Holy shit! Can't fucking wait!

[Ahasverus]

Is that.... HAIR? and is he.. Smiling?
OMG I'll buy this game only for that... first non bald space without a cold face yay!

[WeAreStarStuff]

I have never played this series; is it anything like Mass Effect?

Sorry for the dumb question.

LOL, good stuff. Seriously, looking pretty good as far as screens go. It will be nice to finally see some gameplay.

[Chauncy Talon]

Please let this have elements like the first game. The first game felt like a revamped Super Space Harrier to me.

[lowhighkang_LHK]

I hope this game takes a somewhat horror approach. It could really end up being the next gen dino crisis 2. Seriously, these Akrid are more or less fucked up looking dinosaurs anyway.

[zlatko]

Honestly I've never wished ill on a sequel to a franchise I like, but fuck this game. Let it tank or for the love of all that is holy just cancel it. Take the funds for this turd and put it to MML3.

[hwalker84]

HAHAHA. Oh god.

[Duuke]

Looks like Jim Raynor to me! Looking forward to some video of in-game footage.

[MDSLKTR]

Cautiously optimistic in this. Giving dead rising to a western dev gave really good results.

[sleepykyo]

We've already had Lost Planet on MT Framework 2.0:

I get that you like ragging on Capcom, but going all PS3 pics is a low blow unless you intend of highlighting how much gets lost in Capcom's PS3 ports.

[B_Rik_Schitthaus]

Blue Castle pre-Dead Rising 2

The Bigs, Major League Baseball Front Office Manager, The Bigs 2.

An odd choice for a horror franchise but not bad games.





Spark Unlimited pre-Lost Planet 3

Call of Duty: Finest Hour, Turning Point: Fall of Liberty, Legendary.

Terrible, some of the worst games I'v played in the FPS genre and I've played Gloom.

[Ultimadrago]

Nigel Thornberry but with smaller nose?

Perhaps that's what is coming to mind.


But Nigel's cool though.

[Replicant]

I was going to say he reminds me of someone and then...
