The Order: 1886 - New Gameplay Footage Released Before Embargo

ITT people trying to be contraversal and shit on the just because.

I really would love know what some of you expected, gameplay wise.

Its guys with guns because guys with guns sell. Have a problem with that? Look in the Mirror :- its your fault.

The order would have the budget it has or the visuals it does if it wasn't a shooter with pretty common elements.

You can't really blame people for being down on the gameplay when the little that we see is the last gen stereotype to a T. A cramped linear corridor with guys shooting in cover and then topping it off with a QTE.

Well that was an underwhelming trailer. Interesting setting, but the voice over was a bit rubbish. Visually fantastic but that's all that's gripping me at the moment.

I was only talking about the typical shooter type gun controlled characters you play as in various games. its pretty hard to do anything better than what has already been done with the current controller setup.

But obviously its possible, and we should expect gameplay to be fresh, but not all games NEED to be innovative here, it still works great if the gameplay is sort of the same as in another game. Just look at uncharted and The last of us, they didnt do anything new gameplay wise, they just told the story amazingly well, set up the scenes very well and gave us a visual experience like never before.


I think our discussion will have to end here then, because I feel the last of us actually brought a lot of new fresh ideas to the third person shooter genre.

The graphics were all over the place from impressive to rough. Not much new gameplay shown but what they did show was incredibly bland. Coming off of this reveal I have zero hype for this game. This game seems be trying to sell itself primarily on just graphics, when the graphics themselves aren't worth it and that's a flawed idea to begin with.

I bet you wrote that with greeted teeth and kept telling yourself it was true eh...so much hate!?!

It's like everyone forgets the process of video game marketing. You don't get a reveal teaser and then a lengthy gameplay video.

Expect a live gameplay video at E3.

Is that seriously all the footage they'll release today? A trailer that doesn't show anything and gameplay that contains a whole 40 secondss of gamelpay? Impressive...

FINALLY, someone re-invented the QTE in a way that matters! Bravo!

These people give us blue balls for a year and this is the shit they show?

I always thought showing gameplay at an actual gaming event such as E3 made so much more sense. Why show a gameplay trailer now and spunk your load (sorry) when you can really hit a home run at E3 when the world is watching.

Heck i remember being shown the epic gameplay "trailer" from the Last of Us E3 2012 by a friend of mine who isn't really into gaming, obviously I'd already seen it by the time he showed me, but it just went to show that these events are more memorable and reach a larger audience.

RAD are geniuses to keep this moment in the player's control.

Just because it's cinematic doesn't mean it needs to wrench control from the player's hands.

I don't think anyone is asking to see the whole game played through, but gives us a 30 second segment maybe. Anything, lol.

E3 can have the grand 5 minute gameplay presentation.
