Just took 15 years.
Finally! Thanks to this maybe when they make a new worms game again people will be more excited.
I'm surprised they even got away with making Worms games for so many years and still make money out of it. Did they ever make anything else than Worms?
Fuck yeah, loved SuperFrog as a kid [video=youtube;LZfX-EvDeNc]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LZfX-EvDeNc[/video]
[QUOTE=Thom12255;41736068]Just took 15 years.[/QUOTE] That's some final fantasy level franchise prolonging shit right there.
and everyone still plays armageddon because its better in every way
by the way clan wars is shitty like revolution i was in both of their closed nda betas and dont buy
Team 17 made Leisure Suit Larry: Box Office Bust. I think getting excited for a non-worms game from them might not be a good idea.
Fucking T17, you don't need new worms games Worms Armageddon re-release with HD sprites, zoom support, better computer AI and good implementation of something like that fan made project X mod extender thing would be fine. And the same physics.
Good choice, the clutter of Armaggedon copy every year was getting redundant.
Great, now make a good Alien Breed on par with or better than Alien Swarm
I doubt that's going to happen Alien Swarm is basically a new Alien Breed anyway, somebody could even make levels from the original amiga alien breed games if they wanted to. Shame nobody will.
About pissing time. I actually managed to meet one of the team once. Could tell he wasn't too happy about sticking to the Worms franchise for so damn long.
[QUOTE=Siduron;41737037]I'm surprised they even got away with making Worms games for so many years and still make money out of it.

Then they went back to Worms games. Something along those lines.
I wonder how a conversation would go with someone the devs haven't seen in a while. 15 years ago "Hey man what are you doing?" "Making worms" 15 years later "Hey man long time no see, what are you up to?" "Making worms"
Wow I didn't even know Team 17 was around anymore
[QUOTE=testinglol;41737614]by the way clan wars is shitty like revolution i was in both of their closed nda betas and dont buy[/QUOTE] Uh I'm in the beta as well and it was actually pretty decent? The new developers actually listen to feedback now, some of the new weapons are pretty fun to use and it actually has a proper singleplayer campaign this time. Granted, their management still sucks dicks (seriously, we barely beta tested anything and they're already releasing it in a week), but it's still looking like it's going to be a big improvement over Revolution. I just wish they'd do more Worms spinoffs. Worms Blast was absolutely amazing and Worms Forts was a really interesting variation. They even planned a racing game at some point, but cancelled it.
