No flying mounts. You can "hack" all the robot creatures. We don't know what most of "hacks" do.

Yeah, I already have a PS4 but I want that performance boost for games down the road. I won't be getting a PS5 at launch (I never buy consoles at launch) so the PRo will do me good for the next 4-5 years.Cool!! looking forward to play it myself , but not on release. I need to get a PS4 first
Are you planning to get a Slim or Pro?
Yes.
Looking forward to the Pro, i don't have slim or base.I do games mostly on PC. Just interested in HZD and GOW.

I just love how sci-fi that place looks.
Along with it really having a sense that it is in the past and forgotten.

Those robots are so really well designed that they need a model viewer ingame showing all parts, weapons, weak points like in those videos.
If they can't be mounted then at least maybe they can be a guardian angel and fly above scouting for danger and swooping down to attack enemies that Aloy comes into contact with. That'd be badass too.
This.
Yeah I imagine it will be air support.
The Behemoth is way cooler than I thought it would be. Wasn't expecting those badass gravity attacks. Is Dusty chilling in those transport pods?
Yes please. I want to really study these designs. They're so intricate and well done.

jesus, i have 10 days to beat Nioh before getting caught in the hype or dont visit any HZD thread lol
i really dig his special attack
btw, i didnt realize Thunderjaw's discs exploded and those lasers were for targeting purposes. i had it all backwards until the 120382th time i looked at those gifs
I like how the base enemies look as complex, if not more so, than actual bosses in other games. Its really impressive in the diversity of attacks for each robo alone and then compared to all the others in the game. The fact they look so good and seem to have a very aggressive and well thought AI system only adds to my excitement.
Yep for not being made for battle it has some amazing attacks.
Like Elandyll said a Scout Class is possible, think the Glinthawk,Stalker and the Watcher would be part of it.

It's gotta defend itself somehow
I absolutely love this. I hope this game turns out to be everything it needs to be to be a new franchise.
That said, and ti may be too early to tell, for a sequel would you prefer it follow Aloy on another adventure, or just keep and expand the world, just with a different protagonist?
In my opinion it will depend on who is the actual star of the game is. The world itself, or Aloy and how she interacts with it.
Guerrilla confirmed that there is no Ingame model viewer , but you can use photo mode for that. They might patched it in via free DLC.
Its too early to say anything, But i am Confident that The world would be different, based on the Tech they are using. I think Aloy will remain the Main lead.
Now that I think about it harder, one time boss robots might not be hackable (for oblivious reasons). But it be cool if you could hack them for a short time. Turn their weapons on themselves for 15secs or something. High risk high reward type situation.
Yeah i know it was a bit premature, but that's an interesting take, you think that it's a chance the world would evolve and it'll be Aloy on a new adventure...
I guess we'll see when we see how this story comes to an end.

Try to contact support, maybe they can do something about it.
The world will be Definitely Evolved , we might see Some Water based locations which are non existence in the current map.
But for sure Aloy will remain the main character. I think she will be the new mascot for Sony.

Yup.
Yeah ok Let just come down people
I don't think so , there are no command system in place and that be too much for Ai to handle.

Why would it be too much? Doesn't hacking a bot simply make it hit enemies and not you? It's not a deal breaker but having a small army of bots at your disposal would be a sight to behold.Yeah ok Let just come down people

A company being excited for their new game is a huge slap in the face to all the fans that liked their old games.
That's some high fucking praise...

I don't think they want to show of PRO gameplay, it would just make people doubt on which version they are seeing in action. I rather watch OG PS4 gameplay and salivate to my content when I get a PS4 Pro soon.

The Sawtooth and the other feline stealthy one. But honestly every design looks sick.
Well, if the focus is on Alloy's (challenging) fights against robot then the gameplay designers might have issues with her having an army and nerfing the challenge. Tech guys might have issues with that because it could potentially murder the framerate.

The wait is almost over!!! These videos aren't helping me with the wait tho. This is my dream game, I'll have to push back playing Zelda for this
Just speculating!! I mean you can't have two mounts at a time as you will have one at your disposable at any given moment, so there might be some limitations like that. maybe there will be multiple hacks but it is not confirmed.
Right, I didn't consider how it might affect the frame-rate if you have too many bots.
I can see how it'll be a problem with mounts since there's only one whistle. Still, I hope that there'll be a quest specific upgrade of sorts that allows one to hack multiple watchers since they're small and not that threatening.

Isn't one of the devs that Guerrilla hired the one who help make the nemesis system in Shadow of Mordor?. I could see him putting in something of the sorts.

Stalker and Watcher, yes. Glinthawk I reckon will be either Acquisition or Transport class as it appears to be a scavenger like the Scrappers.
Oh yeah you are right!

Love that you can shoot the hinges off the container and have the Behemoth drop it. I presume you can then loot it and get the fuck out of there.
