Fun factoid about this game. That large spider enemy wasn't animated by anyone, instead it uses procedural locomotion and utilized machine learning to teach itself to walk. Really impressive stuff. The game is supposed to utilize a lot of impressive ai and machine learning algorithms in its gameplay. Sorta like Boston Dynamics stuff in a video game.
There is even a video of them throwing shit at the spider bot as it learns to walk.
I love the payback is coming line...lol.
This is truly next gen stuff.
They remind me of the tachikomas from Ghost
The tech behind it is most next gen.
With it being free to play type thing......its a massive wait and see. We've seen lots of great concepts just get destroyed by that and something looks better then it actually is. Will be waiting this one closely
Looks pretty cool but not entirely sold
Same. I need to actually see more and hear more to really be on board. Looking good isn't enough, lots of games look good lol Its that free to play, co-op, mtx type thing that I'm worried about tbh.
Very shiny I wonder what the gameplay premise is though. Is it a GaaS game?
I'm 99% sure, to my understanding they have confirmed its free to play
ARC Raiders, a free-to-play cooperative third-person shooter by Embark Studios, was announced tonight at The Game Awards. The game will have players
twinfinite.net
yea so its 100% going to be a free to play type thing, so....GaaS confirmed.
The art direction is really weird, they're mixing retro-60s style of gears/clothes, with 70s style of visual design and retro-80s (2000s more specifically) music.
But it was all subtle enough that I'd be curious to try it, however F2P GaAs means I wonder look after it too much.
Same. I feel it might end up like Generation Zero all over again lol
Art direction and premise are really cool but then you hear stupid cringey dialogue and annoying pop music and you know is another cooperative looter shooter.
pass!
The trailer looks stunning, but I'm getting tired of female protagonists everywher
Put it this way....I wouldn't say its a 100% pass as even with all that cringe shit and rainbow colors and....pop singing, a great game can be underneath that and even with the whole GaaS and F2P thing, its a wait and see as...well its free, for all we know this becomes a massive hit and they have a winner on their hands and its Lost Planet co-op, but with better support or something. If it REALLY is just another looter shooter type thing, its a easy pass, but hey....its a free one too lol
Anyone worried about that female character, steer clear if you had issues with BFV's um....."tone", this is literally made by the same people that left DICE after that game. As in..THE guy lol
EA's chief design officer Patrick Soderlund says Battlefield 5 is the game DICE wanted to make, and you shouldn't buy it if the ladies bother you.

He just going to tell you "DON'T LIKE IT.....DON'T DOWNLOAD THE FREE DOWNLOAD" lol So if you got that vibe like "damn a lot of rainbow colors, lots of women" lolz, let me show you their about page

So...I do think they will have it as a create a player type thing, like 90% sure to sell skins and such, but you'll see that female marketed in a lot of the stuff like as the default or something.
