Didn't Brink try and do this?
Yeah except they took the bad parts together. Cutscenes and linear objective maps.
Karl Pilkington dressed up in gear straight outta Metro? I'm sold.
Only games to do this well, is the Souls series.
[QUOTE=Tomthetechy;43293654]Didn't Brink try and do this?[/QUOTE] It also failed miserably, we just got multiplayer with bots and a fancy cutscene to begin and end with, with different stages of maps and the fact there's a logical sequence to them being used analogous to scripted single player experiences wrongly.
[QUOTE=Tomthetechy;43293654]Didn't Brink try and do this?[/QUOTE] I really wish they would take another swing at that game... It had so many cool ideas. It just was... half done...
Didn't read the article but Dark Souls seems to fit the title. [highlight](User was banned for this post ("Didn't read the article" - MaxOfS2D))[/highlight]
What the hell is that gun
[QUOTE=Chickens!;43303659]What the hell is that gun[/QUOTE] An AK47 of course.
[QUOTE=Chickens!;43303659]What the hell is that gun[/QUOTE] It's a CornerShot, basically a mount for a pistol that can swivel [img]http://www.imfdb.org/images/3/35/CornerShot.gif[/img] [IMG]http://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQUP7-q7fii2WK6Hgy1csnoCOQACUdQ6DQDtVpKHTyuhPb_EmSktA[/IMG] This game sounds interesting. But will each player play a protagonist/antagonist, or will it be like, someone else controls all the mooks?
-god dammit. god fuckin' dammit-
Sounds like MindJack on a much larger scale to me. And hopefully less shit.

It was probably noted already, but the thermal image is different from the scene. [img]http://www.pcgamesn.com/sites/default/files/get%20even%203.jpg[/img] It presents what looks like a different scene.

[QUOTE=Ardosos;43307188]Probably a symbolism thing.[/QUOTE] Or maybe it's some kinda camera that can see slightly into the future
Or, get this, what if the camera is delayed and it's showing him moving the gun down?
[QUOTE=Morbo!!!;43309207]Or maybe it's some kinda camera that can see slightly into the future[/QUOTE] or a couple of seconds delay as the guy had his arms up going down and the guy on the floor had his arms forward reaching back
The guy on his knees is making a grab for the gun. The camera appears to be showing a scene a split second into the shooter, where the man shoots kneeling man (because he had tried to pull his gun)
I want to know how they arrived at the conclusion that the barrier between SP and MP is "artificial."
[QUOTE]Like that game, Get Even’s single player campaign will see other players take on the role of enemies previously controlled by AI.[/QUOTE] So it's multiplayer?
[QUOTE=gokiyono;43315541]So it's multiplayer?[/QUOTE] If it works by replacing AI with players when someone connects, then it is not the multiplayer we're used to. I think it would be cool to play as a weak AI soldier and when you die you get to control next alive one and so on.

[QUOTE=gokiyono;43315869]But it's still multiplayer when there are more than two players[/QUOTE] Yeah and?
[QUOTE=itisjuly;43315877]Yeah and?[/QUOTE] It kinda removes the single aspect of singleplayer. Actually the oxford dictionary says multiplayer is "denoting a computer game designed for or involving several players"
"[...]aims to blur the line between single- and multiplayer." - the pitch of bad games.
