NEW Timeshift screens
- Thread starter Doom_Bringer
- Start date
How can something that started out looking reeeally bad end up looking likes this. Praise zombie Jesus for that visual display. But ungh at the player characters armor (see the trailer), fugly as hell 
(EDIT) And here's how it previously looked. I kinda miss the colorful design.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not criticizing the rain. I'm not interested enough in videogame discussion to criticize videogame rain.
But living in Vancouver, B.C., I have a fairly good idea of what rain looks like.
It's like, if someone drew a cat and called it a monkey, and someone applauded, wouldn't you laugh at that person?

That trailer was sick!
It doesn't appear to be coming to the PS3, its the only logo missing at the bottom of the page.

The rain doesn't look very natural in the environment. It looks more like a substance in reference to KY jelly perhaps.
Anyway, I do like how the game is shaping up. Not too sure how this game will stand out among other shooters for whenever a release date is decided upon. I'm sort of hoping that they'll make the environments more lively, interactive and most importantly destructive. That's pretty much what I expect from most upcoming FPS' if they drop you down into a vast environment as opposed to claustrophobic corridors.

Actually the rain looks pretty crappy. Is it just some shader or something?mckmas8808 said:
Aside from that, how is this game gonna be different from all the other generic FPS?
FPS is a genre. Games that you call FPS are of necessity 'generic' to some degree.
Developers have finite reserves of inventiveness and time, especially on games such as Timeshift which are not utterly top-shelf top-priority considerations. In its first incarnation, this game would probably have sunk without a trace and deserved to do so. It's been rebuilt - it stands out a darned sight more than it did - I think it deserves a break. If it's representative of the down-the-line FPS propositions we're going to get this generation, I really don't mind.

I thought Australia was the driest inhabited continent on earth, but the actual driest continent on earth is antarctica?

before the game was on PC. They released a demo, it was ok imo. Dunno if it ever came out.
Saw it on xplay, it looks pretty good in motion
