aww.. I was hoping if they ever did "Black 2" they would built some new next gen engine for the game...one that can compete with Frostbite and Red Faction engine, as far as destruction.
how impressive was the EGO engine again?....it didn't seem to translate well for consoles, I don't remember Flashpoint looking that impressive.

Black was pretty cool graphically but boy, it had the WORST CHECKPOINT SYSTEM ever

...It's Codemasters. It'll be 360/PS3/PC and bomb on every single one and be half price within two weeks.JasonMCG said:

Operation Flashpoint was fairly decent on the 360 and a disaster on the PS3.
Black had amazing explosions (still superior to many current-gen games) and shooting was pretty satisfying - as long as you were shooting the environments and not the enemies. Black always felt like it was a contradiction in design; they hyped it endlessly as balls-out gun porn, but playing it as a run-and-gun would get you nowhere. Progress required methodical lining up of head shots instead of holding down the trigger and just letting lead fly. A shame, since the weapons looked and sounded great, with little touches like having 2 different reload animations per weapon - one quick one for when you were under fire, and an extended one for quieter moments.
Also, as already mentioned, terrible checkpoint placement and pretentious, film school-dropout level cinematics that were unskippable to boot.

80 heads in Guildford is expensive. This game is getting the full AAA budget treatment it seems. Black was excessive fun and if they can take the beginning of what they did on Black and give it the 20x treatment, this could be very interesting indeed.
Yeah, pretty much. It has the same director and with a name like Bodycount its reasonable to expect it to be an FPS in a similar style.JasonMCG said:
From what I understand, Black 2 was planned for PS3/360 for a while but at one point or another the project fell apart. My guess is that Criterion didn't have enough time/resources to develop it while they were working on Burnout Paradise. And now that they're in charge of the NFS series it seems doubtful that they would be working on something else anytime soon, which is probably why Stuart Black jumped ship.
Also, I fully support random Rob Liefeld hate.
Awesome! If they have productions values as high as Black (in context for this gen) than I'll be super happy.
Might be an alien but Black is my favorite FPS last gen. I loved it because it was pure gun porn. Shooting, stuff break, explosions, a mindless and visceral experience. Since can't care less about multiplayer, the fact it was missing didn't make a dent on my experience.
So I hope this new game is mindless shooting. I'm a Doom son and it's really hard to please my FPS taste theses days with all those fancy almost story-based shooters, realistic war games and such bullshit.

I hope the rest of the team has more influence than the one guy who worked on Black.
If I like shooting guns in games, then I'm going to love this? That's what they said Black was going to be like and it was hella boring.
I remembered being impressed by the visuals in the trailers, but once the controller was in my hands and I was actually playing the game it just wasn't fun for me at all. I should have known it was going to be boring when in the trailers whoever was playing was just constantly holding down the fire button..

I just mean I wish for a game that isn't cheaply made. Also, Black wasn't broken at all for me it was simply awesome. And given a game is good, it quite automatically becomes even better if there's better production values (better visuals, better sounds, more polish, etc)

Yeah. I'm really sick and tired of people saying B-B-BUT DEADPOOL! whenever people want to save Liefeld, forgetting that it was other people that help created the Deadpool you people love (and nowadays he feels like a cash cow like his buddy/enemy Wolverine).

The personality is what keeps him from being a lame ripoff.

God I wish this game was not canceled it looked really good and interesting like NOLF.Bleepey said:I'll buy this game purely for the name, i have not fealt this way about a name since:
RIP
OT: The cover looks a little generic but I have faith in the Black creators because that game is awesome!

A Rob Liefeld inspired FPS would be hilarious. Ammo counts into the tens of thousands thanks to your pouches, slow walking speed due to your tiny feet, midget sized enemies next to yor 1000lbs nine foot tall character, NPCS switching hair styles and costume everytime you look away, and a field of view that 80 percent filled by your super sized toaster guns.
Lets do this, Codemasters.
