Hey Guest. Check out your NeoGAF Wrapped 2025 results here!
We're almost there....Gametrailers' Haze Preview
- Thread starter AgentOtaku
- Start date
Why are people downplaying 4p co-op? It's awesome, and more games need it.
The respawning system sounds interesting (respawning at checkpoints, + reviving downed allies). Sounds like the middle-ground I would have been interested in between overly generous respawning and Iron mode in Halo3.
I don't even have a PS3, but the game seems promising enough.

A new screen shot from Haze. :lol

This is actually my biggest worry. All of the rebel stuff requires getting close enough to steal some nectar, which means the Mantel troopers should be able to keep them at a distance and neutralize most of their abilities in MP. Especially considering that Nectar vision makes the enemy glow bright yellow. Couple of Nectarized snipers and it's going to be a bitch getting close enough to soak your knife in nectar or play dead.

Where's the "joking" smiley?
Oh right, you don't get stupid humor. Emphasis on 'stupid'.

It was a shot of a screen, and it had the pukey-yellow that Haze does.
How is that not funny?
Oh well, learn to take a joke, the game's gonna
blow ass
Nice avatar, btw.

I can take a joke when it is funny. You and I both know you are just giving the game even more stick.
Haze has been copping shit for whatever reasons though. I'm not defending it cos I haven't played it yet. It may blow ass sure, but it looks like you've already made your mind up. Maybe you should wait until you've played it. Free RAD has a good track record and tbh, HAZE looks just as "generic" as Halo 3, COD4, Resistance and most other FPS's out there. Not every new game is going to innovate like Portal. The genre is solid and enjoyable as it is.
Anyway, peace. I saw in an OT thread you don't like Usher. Props to you

Why does COD4 get flack? It's the best FPS in many, many years.
Oh, and Usher's the devil.

I'm gonna' stop hijacking this thread after this post, so I'm just going to say what I want to say.
-COD4 isn't very innovative, but it's one of the most fun experiences you'll have with an FPS. Balanced maps, phenomenal sound, good weapons, great modes.
-Haze is getting flack because PS3 trolls talked shit to 360 and Wii owners that they were getting the 'next time splitters' as an exclusive, but when we saw Haze we laughed; this game looks awful. To say that Halo 3 or COD4 is generic and then to praise Haze is just...wow. Haha. I'm not saying YOU are doing that, but there are people who are, and it's laughable.
Anyhow, I love Free Radical and I hope they make a new Time Splitters, just wake me when Haze is released and people finally see past the 'exclusivity' and 'developer promise' fog.
/Done.

This game doesn't really have too much going for it IMO... It'll be 2X better if they removed that stupid yellow armor. Who in their right mind would want to go into a gunfight with something like that?

Wow, people just need to shut up. Honestly, do you know how annoying it is for COD4 fans to hear that its just another WW2 shooter in a new paint of coat? Or that Halo 3 is overrated crap and hasn't changed a bit from Halo 1. And here you guys are doing the same thing to Haze. Just back out of this topic and don't post the verbal garbage that some of you really want to.

...how am I just as bad as them?
Because my opinion is different than yours and I voice it? Yeah, really troll-like.
Stop harassing me, I haven't been rude to you once.

For as long as I've known about Haze I've thought it has potential. The Nectar mechanic seems inventive. It would appear that it can create some very interesting gameplay scenarios. I saw some demonstrations a few months back that impressed me, but I haven't really kept tabs on it since then.
The hate it's been getting doesn't really make sense to me. I'll wait until the game's been out for a while to make up my mind, but I don't think it should be dismissed out of hand.

Check the archives. Haze was getting flak long before any system exclusivity was announced.

Wasn't sure of that.
Oh well, I think I should just stop criticizing this game, I'll give it a shot on release, see how it plays.
I'm sure Free Radical will pull it off.

...Sooo...
How does that explain the use of yellow? Like they want to die?
permutated said:
I simply mean to suggest that they might be eschewing - at any rate, not prioritising - camouflage and so on because technological / numerical superiority gives them a sort of bullish indifference to tactics and the details of warfare. What's more, the corporation is unhinged and its staff are on drugs (think Swiss Guard). Maybe Mantel troopers really are just that expendable.
Not that it matters. Demo will be good, game will be better.
As a multiplatform owner I don't have a lot of faith in this title either but until I've played it I won't treat Haze as if it raped my mother.Xater said:
Kittonwy said:The problem is it's not like PS3 fans are hyping the game much, so I'm not sure why it's getting shit on at this point. Every self-respecting PS3 fan knows that Resistance 2 is going to own the shooter landscape on the PS3 this year.
True
