[jwk94]

Site isn't up yet.

 

[MrJonnyBigBoss]

[jond76]

[funkystudent]

Its free 2 play and they aint showing shit.


I am sure this game will be GREAT!

 

[sjagolinzer]

Sounds like a lol type game. I'm intrigued.

 

[Tal Shiar Agent]

I was hoping that this trademark would be related to Syphon Filter. Still, looks good.

 

[DylanTackoor]

Didn't even show the game and opened it up by trying to defending it being F2P.

Bad feeling already.

 

[Cartman86]

They showed David Jaffe from that teaser trailer thing in the background when the guy was talking about this, but I had my volume down. Was that just a screw up?

 

[H4r4kiri]

any impressions from the Pre-Alpha ?

What does 5 v 2 v 5 team structure mean?

 

[Skittles]

What does 5 v 2 v 5 team structure mean?

2 teams of 5 versus a team of 2. So think two counter-strike teams against 2 monsters. At least I think that's how it would be

 

[Mexen]

Came here expecting lots of details. Oh well...

 

[Creaking]

What does 5 v 2 v 5 team structure mean?

Could be something like Batman: Arkham Origins (never played the multiplayer tho) or Metal Gear Online. In Origins, there are game modes with two teams of thugs, plus two players controlling Batman and Robin. Batman and Robin are on a team of their own, and have unique skills and gadgets to make up for their lack in numbers.

In Metal Gear Online (2), there is a mode with two teams of PMCs going at each other, plus two players controlling Snake and his little RC robot, the Metal Gear Mk. II. The PMCs are trying to kill each other and Snake. Snake wins if he can collect three dog-tags from the mercenaries (earned by knocking players out, if I recall). Snake has a slightly better default firearm, plus his full sneaking suit, which can render him invisible when applied correctly.

 

[Callibretto]

What does 5 v 2 v 5 team structure mean?

dunno, maybe 2 teams of 5 compete to kill or capture 2 super powered character/monster?

What is Kill Strain for PlayStation 4?

 

[barit]

Wonder when finally someone brings a good MOBA game with 3rd person view to consoles. Can´t be that hard uh ?

How can the game be highly competitive if nobody is playing it yet?

Thanks! I hope they allow you to queue up with a friend as mutants. It looks really fun.

 

[m@cross]

Day-0, my money is spent already.

 

[HORRORSHØW]

What is Kill Strain for PlayStation 4?

cool. the 2 mutants to the usual 5v5 moba fare should add an interesting dimension.

 

[m@cross]

MOBA... hype down.....

 

[Triggerhappytel]

What does 5 v 2 v 5 team structure mean?

Sounds like Evolve but doubled, and with the teams of humans encouraged to fight one another too. Could be an interesting set-up, and I guess the 'strain' in question turns people into some kind of creature or monster, allowing for bigger teams vs. smaller, more powerful teams.

EDIT - yeah; I probably should have just read the Polygon article before answering.

 

[Callibretto]

I think infecting human and turning them to your side is the more interesting addition

 

[RexNovis]

Meh free to play has me skeptical. Consider me curious for now. I'll keep an eye out for gameplay and make a decision about purchase intent once I see that.

I've found this on yt. Horrible quality, but it's the first time we can see the game in action

You can have it man. I was just wondering what happened to the Alpha that was promised.

 

[Eyerox]

Alpha is going on now.

 

[Goreomedy]

Played this a few weeks ago. Felt like Helldivers with Halo's Infection mode. Think it'll be quite popular.

 

[BruceLeeRoy]

Oh man was Keit perm'd? I wondered why I hadn't seen him in forever.
