The Order: 1886 - New Gameplay Footage Released Before Embargo

I still think that the black bars are a huge pain in the ass, but the game looks awesome. I would love to see how it looks @1080P without the 4xMSAA, probably it would be still amazing.

Is it just me or does the gameplay kinda look buggy or laggy?

Probably still not fully finished. Still it look amazing. They're taking cinematic gameplay like the Last of Us even further.

I can't wait for this game.

Microsoft can keep their Titanfall! Just give me The Order 1886! I don't need another FPS! I just want that sweet, Steam-Punk Victorian Thriller Adventure!
 
Holy shit guys is this not the fucking coolest spyglass thing you've ever seen:

The animation of the lenses even has a little rebound from when it flicks open.

Did I say that? I'm going by the history of no well written game when a Hollywood writer was brought on. It'd be nice to hear the writer was brought in early, but I'm not holding my breath. Game writing is very different from a movie script, so its not like the skills transfer the same quality.

You should watch the GI interview. Ru specifically mentions this how they brought in a writer not from the gaming industry because they wanted someone who could bring in something fresh or not apparent that a game writer who Ru seems to also be writing would not be able to do or pick up.

6.20 minute mark in the video.

That said, I don't the corridor parts and hopefully get more open scenes.

To be fair, for the little seen, this game ( if gameplay ends up being not great ) will, at least, have 1000 times better graphics than Ryse.

What? From the little I saw it looks good but the colors and the video are really not that good to say something like this. Textures by now look way too low-res and there is some flickering on the cloth-textures, too.
We will have to wait for high-quality videos to judge the game graphically.

That really does look very much like offline pre-rendered CG in motion. Really remarkable stuff. Wow.

The main enemies in this game are some type of creatures, right? Not some boring ass humans? Please?

I expect same situation as with TLOU. Humans as fodder enemies, and monsters as very dangerous and constant threat. Entire universe will be aimed to tell the story of the monsters, how their presence fucked up out world.

I don't know what your reading?

I basically wrote
It looks like Real Next Gen
Not souped up current gen on the PC (like a lot of ports look like on the consoles too)

I have no idea what is hard to understand. Very few games are built for the PC anymore to really push high end architecture to the limits.

If you don't understand that. /wave
I didn't know what I was reading either, hence the asking for an explanation. Bloody hell. Guys asks for explanation, gets told to read into it whatever he wants, and you wonder why he think you have no point? How hard would it have been to just explain what you meant?

So you mean that it is actually current gen rather than just being an upressed PS3/X360 port? So you mean PC was held back by last gen?

All the Xbox One fans pop in the thread to leave a little insult after watching the amazing video of The Order 1886.


"Look like Gears and Ryse Son of Rome.."

That actually looks pretty damn impressive. Hopefully proves to be more than just a third person shooter though.

I did as well, then I realized that when I watch movies with black bars, I don't pay attention to them unless it's a particularly boring movie.

Please tell us what next gen gameplay is or should be? Keep hearing this complain again and again in 1886 threads. Maybe you should make a "next gen" gameplay game so we all know.

Also not much has been shown and this game has months to be cooked to perfection


For them next gen gameplay is Titanfall.

Some people like black bars in the ass, some do not. Some people like pain, some do not.
If you are neither of those, you know what not to do ;)

Sincerely, Ass pain doctor.

Edit: Someone had to do this. I waited if anyone would do this, but no. My joke fell flat on its face. Shame on you all

Well, it's official, I woke up and had a look at the best looking game I have ever seen. Nothing touches this. Nothing.

Congratulations, RAD! The visuals are stunning and the image quality is fantastic.

I only had a look at the OP video, is that the only thing available? I'd like to listen to the actual game sound... and would like to see more gameplay also.

By that standard i think SF III third strike makes every next gen game an ugly piece of shit. All those processors, they cannot handle colors!

The PC was held back. Games that really pushed boundaries were rare indeed. The days of PC games bringing the most powerful hardware to its knees has all but disappeared.

man that does look swell. doesn't look like they're showing off the integral destruction mechanics yet though, so I hope we get some of that in the previews or I'll be a little disappointed

Yes every other preview and a new official trailer is coming later today, this video broke the embargo.

In 3 hours you will get previews,screenshots and a trailer.

Same, though I'm going to play the semantic TLOU card of "but the humans were the bigger danger!" ...But really, this would be ideal. That was a great example how the gameplay can continuously feel fresh when you split the playtime up so equally and I'll admit that I'd be very disappointed if there there's no effort made at that kind of balance here.

This game look gorgeous. Seriously good, from any point of view.

Ps : Please, we are here to talk about a videogame, don't bring a PC-PS4 war here ... you guys looks like a kids when you start this *useless* debate. Thanks.
 
The PC was held back. Games that really pushed boundaries were rare indeed. The days of PC games bringing the most powerful hardware to its knees has all but disappeared.

It really has... People complaining they can't run Crysis 3 at 60 fps without any hitches everything maxed at 4k. I mean it took more than a few years for people to hit Crysis at a solid 30 fps at 1080p on maxed settings...Optimisation is still an issue though.

i wouldn't consider comparing it to gears an insult. I think this game is going to have to same impact on the new gen the same way gears had in the last gen.

Looks next gen.

Glad to see the bar set this high so early in the piece.

If this becomes the graphics standard for linear games, and Witcher 3 for open world games, it will be a very good generation.

This is how the game actually looks like when you're controlling the character? Goodness. I think I'm starting to feel it, gaf. Actual, tingling genuine hype.

I don't know why I haven't been paying much attention to this game but colour me impressed. And I really, really like the character models and costume designs. They all look so sleek and regal and... manly. And just the overall feel of the game too-- it's so well done imo.

And you know what would make the game even more attractive? Customisable weapons.

I don't get this comparison. It's like Xbox fans so badly want PS4 to have a debacle as bad as Ryse

Or maybe people think that considering this video only, the game looks beautiful but gives a really "yet-another-3rd-person-cover-based-shooter" vibe? Just like Ryse looked really nice but was a borefest to a lot of gamers gameplay-wise.

Why must every opinion be about console wars or from fanboys? That's overly simplistic.

For that it needs cool monster designs and to be pretty impressive. I'm still waiting!
Gears made an impact with its giant overloaded monsters, that was pretty unique for the time being.

Hey, I agree with that but that is not what I got form the guys initial post, then I got told to read into it whatever I want. So hey, whatever.
 
I like watching the cloth move. It's nice seeing things start to actually look "next gen".

Not quite sold on the game itself, though. I was a lot more interested when I thought it would have co-op.

Facial animation isn't Naughty Dog standard but I'm glad someone has finally pulled off a convincing focus pull:

inR45NRyZAwEo.gif

What stuns me about Naughty Dog is that all their facial animation is done by hand...they of course use video reference of the actors from the mo-cap session but they produce results on level if not better than games using actual facial capture. They seem so alive and expressive.
 
It really is half hard to believe this is coming from a studio that used to make mostly portable games.

Their PSP games were always technically impressive. Easily among the best on that platform where the other big games visually were coming from studios that you'd expect (Square, Polyphony etc.). Sony Bend are also apparently making a PS4 game, so they'll be joining RaD soon.

oh I know it's coming at some point, just wish they would emphasize it a bit more since they said it's so central. In particular, if they did they could maybe avoid the 300 posts in these threads always like "TYPICAL THIRD PERSON GEARS COVER SHOOTER" :p
 
My only complaint is the rough transitions in and out of cover. Other than that, I am having a hard time processing that the game looks the same in cut scenes and gameplay. My brain is being an ass.

Well this isn't a repurposed Kinect-in Gladiator Maximus so I think we should be safe in that regard . At the very least it should be a competent game..... I hope.
