Date Posted: 1/3 10:52am Subject: RE: Developer greetings from Propaganda Studios...aka "Questions? We've got answers!" Good morning, folks. Happy New Year to you, I hope it was a safe and fun one. Let's tackle these one at a time, shall we? PS3 - Issues with PS3 development are largely overblown by internet "experts" and folks with an axe to grind. Face it, any new platform is going to present challenges and the PS3 is no different from the 360 in that regard. We've had over a year's head start getting experience on the 360, but Propaganda has extremely talented coders who took on the challenge of making Turok multiplatform and giving PS3 owners the best game possible. Sony was also a great supporter, providing on-site assistance here so that you guys on PS3 got the same AAA fps experience that the 360 owners are going to get when Turok's released. So to make a long story short, the PS3 game rocks as hard as the 360 version. No worries there. Demo - we're going to make the 360 demo more widely available VERY soon, and we'll be releasing a PS3 version too. I look forward to the comparison videos and jpegs which are soon to follow, I'm sure. cool Dinos in MP - I'm not going to give away the farm, but you'll definitely see more than just raptors in all multiplayer sessions. They're a great addition to the mix, making things unpredictable for both sides and really fleshing out the game universe to the same high level that our single player game enjoys. You guys will love 'em all...when they're chewing on your opponent as opposed to you. Achievements, online co-op - We're supporting online co-op play, for sure! 3 distinct maps telling aspects of the SP campaign from a different perspective. The AI is suitably tougher, as you'd expect from a mode which supports 4 players working together. There are specific co-op achievements as well. For a full list of achievements, check this link: http://www.xbox360achievements.org/a...php?gameID=322 TIM

I found this pretty interesting. He says the demo is coming VERY soon (with capitals) so I'm guessing within a week or two. Also his comments about the ps3 version is coming along nicely are really good to hear.

I personally can't wait for the demo since I played Turok for the N64 all the time. :)

God, this could be the best spring game season ever.

I can just picture this working out like items in Smash Bros., with "purists" claiming that the only way to play is to disable the dinos.

[ThirstyFly]

I like the sound of dinos in MP. It'd be fun to watch a T-rex stomping around enemy lines.

[Rodeo Clown]

There are people who play Smash Bros. without items? That seems...wrong.

[The Faceless Master]

oooh, demo coming soon!

[steverulez]

Oh man, yes :D

I've been very interested in this for a while and am looking to buy it next month but I want to check i'll like it first.

I was thinking the other day while on here that we should all hassle Bish for a demo release date...

Looking forward to it! I hope both 360 and PS3 demos go up before release so I can see which one to get. Could be my first 3rd party PS3 game =o

uh, yeah, tournament play removes random elements and relies on skill and strategy

[bishoptl]

This TIM guy sounds like a dreamy fellow. Highly intelligent, as well.

[shintoki]

If the gameplay turns out to be good...I think I may just buy it. Why is it tthe 1st quater of this year is so dam good?:lol DMC4, Turok, Burnout Paradise, Lost Odyssy, and so many more. Even after Christmas too *Cries*

[JCBossman]

It would be smart to get this thing out ASAP, before it gets "lost" amid the AAA Blockbusters

[The Faceless Master]

this TIM guy sounds like he's damage controlling why the ps3 demo isn't coming "very soon" :p

and as a huge fan of Turok 1, 2 and RW on N64, i'm REALLY hoping this game is full of WIN

[bishoptl]

360 was the lead platform, so the PS3 version of the demo was a little late. That's par for the course with most multiplatform games so far, I don't think we're in such bad company. :P Anyways, you'll see the demo released on Live and PSN in the near future, and get a taste of the meat fountain for yourself. Full game is out on Feb. 5th.

[Tiduz]

ps3 demo, yay :D

[InterMoniker]

This TIM guy sounds like a dreamy fellow. Highly intelligent, as well.

My name is Tim too :D

I knew you'd pop in here :)

[Thunderbear]

I'm looking forward to this game, it looks like pure, fairly straightforward fun. Looking forward to the demo but unless it's horrible I'll be there the first week.

[BravoSuperStar]

Great news, I was hoping the demo would be released on Live/PSN. Are there plans for any DLC?

[beerbelly]

Will we be able to play online co-op in the demo?

[dolemite]

Can't wait to see what the achievements are like:D

Wow, that sounds awesome! Any little thing to differentiate the MP is great, as I'm still enjoying Halo and CoD4 because of the fact that they are very different.

Y'know I just noticed that there hasn't been a demo out for a little while on the PS3 or the 360...soon is good timing.

Turok is an AAA Blockbuster, shooting a t-rex in HD will be amazing

[dolemite]

Yeah, as long as you can actually kill it, rather than scare it away for a bit.

[The Faceless Master]

i thought it was confirmed that they can be killed, but you won't always have enough firepower to do it

[gwiz210]

Hmm...thats funny gaf because lookie what I have...

Edit: I've only played it once but I think its just a single player mission. It was very fun though.

Are you wearing finger nail polish?

[SRG01]

Your name is TIM! :D

[gwiz210]

No, im not sure why it looks as if i do though... weird new camera

[gwiz210]

The game is really polished and controls great. Only thing I couldnt understand is how to crouch right. It threw me off a bit.

[shintoki]

Already released I believe
I think these are it
They mention Coop Maps!!!

Bish, couple of questions:

What is shoot on PS3? R2 or R1? And if its R2 can you change it to R1?

Also, will you guys be playing multiplayer like those "play with the dev" nights? I'd love to give you a game sometime :D

[gwiz210]

lol, I have no idea why this pic came out weird and emo. I'm by no means an emo, and dont have an emo haircut. Just a bad hair day I suppose.

[SappYoda]

That could fix all bad PSN updates, so release it soon :P

Ok fair enough :)

Yeah I know I want custom sound tracks in SSHD but that's getting Off Topic.

[Tyrannical]

Turok Defense Force

Who picked that name for an achievement?

[Synless]

Ehh, the demo wasn't that great...I was pretty disappointed in it.

It may have been the emo haircut and finger nail polish.





LOL, just messing with ya

You'll have to learn to mind your surroundings.

[loosus]

I haven't played Turok since the first N64 game. I thought it was pretty cool at the time because of the dinosaurs.

Am I right to say that they have largely gotten away from that in later games? That's the impression I've always had, anyway.

That reminds me of that event in Motorstorm I swear one of them was called "Super Enemy Crab" :lol

[AgentOtaku]

whewt! whewt! whewt!

[bluemax]

No, im not sure why it looks as if i do though... weird new camera

I have that same problem with my fingernails.

Already released I believe I think these are it They mention Coop Maps!!!

Those are some brilliantly named achievements.

[Duderz]

4 player online co-op? Gimmie!

Haven't played a Turok game in quite a while!

[Kuroyume]

How long is the demo? Anyone who has the demo already mind letting us know?

[Chris_C]

Turok and Burnout will be my next PS3 purchases, thankfully Bish is on my PSN friends list so I'll be able to pwn him at his own game. when it finally arrives, it's being shipped from the US to Lagos...

thats the reason, why your developers forgot the game for the german games convention :X

[jakncoke]

Nice, I am looking forward to the game.
