I love Lost Planet. Honestly, the campaign lost my interest a couple hours in so I'm happy they're mixing it up a lot. I know online will bring it so I'm super excited, day 1 purchase for sure.
Sidenote:
Hopefully Capcom fixes the
[i shoot you]
[they have this weird falling animation, can't get hurt]
[lying on the ground for 2 seconds, can't get hurt]
[start getting up again, can't get hurt]
[stand up fully, can't get hurt for 2 more seconds]
[battle continues]
Hate that bullshit. My shotgun to your face should kill you, not make you do this weird animation that gives the wounded the advantage.

Agreed. The whole point of the invuln was that it resets the conflict... if you knock them down, without killing them in one shot, especially with a one shot kill weapon, you did something wrong, and the other person SHOULD have a chance to score the kill against you.
That's what makes Lost Planet decidedly different than every other shooter.
Exactly what I meant with the game being widely misunderstood. The basics of a fighting game in a third-person shooter. It was different and complaints about it wanted it to be more like other games. You would be crucified if you went into the SFIV thread and demanded that it should be more like Tekken.Coxswain said:
I've been thinking about ways they could the grapple hook and I reckon I got a good idea. So we all know that the grapple hook is pretty strong and it drags the player towards the desired target, however, what if you could make it so you could drag shit towards you?
Imagine it, 4 doods grapple hooking a mech and then using it to pull it over. Would be awesome.

What are you going to do if it don't come to the PS3? I would like WarDevil stay multiplatform so 360 owner could also buy the game.Trailblazer said:

I'm all for the invul parts while rolling or when it makes sense. Shotgun from a what the game considers just a tad too far should just not kill them instead of making the person invul to any grenades that any teammate might throw, or letting them kill me with their shotgun once they stand up from their animation.
That one has to go imo. There were some fun times with it, but I would rather it's not there. Just my opinion.
Is Lost Planet 2 Only On Xbox 360?
from kotaku
" Earlier this week, Lost Planet 2 was announced on Xbox LIVE. The upcoming issue of Japanese game magazine lists the game as only "Xbox 360." Guess that means it's on the Xbox 360.
But how does that fit into Capcom's multi-platform strategy?
Famitsu reports that the game's development is 40 percent done, has online player and four player co-op. As we posted previously, it features new environments, new enemies and new weapons. Check out the debut trailer here and new Famitsu scans below.

Hehe, I've been replaying LP campaign since the announcement. Need to go through Hard again since I haven't unlocked Extreme yet for Colonies.
Such a wonderful game, so much nostalgia. Easily one of my favorite singleplayer games this gen.
My last save was at the start of mission 4. The climb up the mountain, up to the epic encounter with the flying moth boss. I remember my first encounter with that one probably take up to an hour worth of retries. Mission 5, another trek up a mountain, into the ice cave and fighting the giant Akrid! Not as hard as mission 4's boss, but still so goood. Breaking off its claws to knock it senseless and then shoot its weak spot. Mission 6 starting off in the city as you fight off a good number of pirates and mechs all at once - it was actually tougher than I remember. And then, fighting Green Eye with my favorite mech in the game. So agile! I actually really like how controlling mechs feels in this game. Mission 7 as you sneak into the enemy base at night. Only, it's not much of a stealth mission as they launch a dozen mechs shooting missiles at you from every direction! As you get past that, you get a small breather. Until a bunch of giant Akrid start chasing you around. Enemy mechs get in the fray as well, leading to a 3-way battle leaving only me and my mech standing (well, only me - I did salvage the mech for T-eng, though!). And yet the mission's not over. You have to get past a bunch of security robots, and dodge their lasers, while some mechs at a distance fire missiles at you. Luckily, hand grenades are a-plenty! Then, mech boss time! Being a bit reckless, I lose my mech to the boss, and fight the rest of the fight on foot. Dodging its bullets and his little security robot escorts, I sneak in a few rockets and ba-boom! Mission 8, start! Now it's 1AM and I have work early tomorrow 
Next time, next time!

I fucking love console exclusivity because chances are Capcom won't be tied down with having to worry about a PS3 port and can milk the 360 for all her power.
This is why you're suppose to own more than one console. And if you can't,then you'd better find a friend that does.:lol

Unless Microsoft decides to...er...negotiate with Capcom if you know what I mean. This game should be awesome btw.
Yeah but it was a half ass port and they were asking full price at the time when on the 360 you can get it for $20. And that's what I did, I bought the PS3 version on Gamefly, and I waited till it dropped to $20 or lower ($15 for me).Totobeni said:
Its the same like situation as Bioshock and 2K Games (as far as I know) is still making a PS3 version of Bioshock 2. And I'm pretty sure Bioshock on the PS3 didn't make the charts although I could be wrong.
It would be just soo fucked up if they didn't make this game for PS3 too. Like really Capcom? You make everything multiplatform like Devil's May Cry and you stop now? Even when you said your multiplat from now on? In these hard times? For shame, I hope Microsoft shoved that money hat straight up your ass....if Lost Planet 2 is exclusive....please don't make it exclusive...i..love...u...

Didn't it come out much later on the PS3? It seems like later ports typically don't perform as well as when the games do when they are first released. Bring out your games a year later and it probably won't perform as well as it could of.

haha doesnt sound to me like it is exclusive...
notice in the press release how it says exclusive announcement haha... Personally I think its one of those cases were they announce it sooner so MS can put emphasis on their version or something.

Yup, that's what it looks like to me as well. Pitiful effort from Microsoft, I don't know who they're trying to fool. They should start investing in real exclusives, rather than buying so much marketing for exclusive DLC and fake exclusivity, it's really starting to get on my nerves.
If it's a 360 exclusive, it's quite impressive how fast things change.

At no point in the PR do they say exclusive, only that it's being made on 360.Kingsgoon said:

Says nothing about timed exclusives (which are not really exclusives, per se) as well. Though personally, I do think that the PS3 version still has a pretty good chance of a simultaneous release. Let's just wait for confirmation from Capcom.
It is true that the press release was worded quite strangely. It is almost as if they wanted to create the ambiguity.

what's with the reactions?
it's obvious this is some kind of timed exclusive, they can't mention other platforms as it's part of the deal. the press release doesn't mention exclusivity anywhere.

Heh, that PR sounds like as much confirmation as you can get it's timed. Not to mention the announcement trailer only on the 360 and the preview only listed as 360 in Famitsu this week. There is zero reason not to mention other versions now without some kind of deal on the table. Not to say it isn't going to hit other platforms later.
They can still keep to this just a different kind of multi eh.

Anybody have the sales numbers for Lost Planet 1 handy(including both the PC/PS3 ports and Colonies)?
2.2 million seems a bit high...
2.2 million seems a bit high...
Screens look gorgeous, and it's still so early too... and they confirmed what I figured, that your Space Pirates can be custom-fitted costume-wise to your liking, as well as it's the first game to use MT-Framework 2.0 - I really wanna see the improvements to the engine although I can see some already...
And it's so funny reading these "will it be exclusive? it's exclusive?" whining so early too - if anything, it's a hell of a way to generate buzz, because for the last couple days, it's all that's been going on, more than talk about the trailer itself...
Annoying that they keep asking about ports, but if that was Microsoft's goal, they sure as hell succeeded with that one...
