Running With Scissors gives permission to a Polish company named "Psi Games" to remake Postal 2 on t - Polidicks

[quote=CDAction] Ever played Postal 2? If not, then don't suddenly replay it - our countrymen got a permission from "Running With Scissors" to revive the entire game on the Unreal Engine 3. And everything looks good so far.[/quote] [video=youtube;A4MO9MEzYdM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4MO9MEzYdM[/video] [video=youtube;jZlJQUdBr14]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZlJQUdBr14[/video] [url=http://www.cdaction.pl/news-32773/]Source in Polish[/url] [url=http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=145072769]Greenlight Page[/url]

why not on source? it would be nice i guess its hard to code the missions on source

After the shittiness that I heard Postal 3 was, I don't think outsourcing another one of their projects is all too great of an idea. That teaser isn't really helping me change my opinion, either.

That teaser trailer was so awful I though that it was being remade by Running With Scissors and not some other company.

I hope they make something good out of it. It's also pretty dumb to release a teaser this early IMO.

Came in from the index hoping RWS was making Postal 3 themselves. Not sure how I feel about this, I think I will wait to see more before judging this.

I hope that's a pre-alpha or something, looks ugly as sin.

RWS just needs to make another game already, enough with these crappy outsourced Postals.

Awesome.

They made the trailer before they finished the ground textures? That should've been used in the trailer? :v:

What a good use of time and effort.

[QUOTE=Bread_Baron;40910627]RWS just needs to make another game already, enough with these crappy outsourced Postals.[/QUOTE] Would you prefer a crappy game straight from RWS?

They better re-use the voice clips from Postal 2. [I]"Buttsauce"[/I]

Game of the Century right here and then Uwe Boll will make a second Postal movie.

[QUOTE=Van-man;40910807]They better re-use the voice clips from Postal 2. [I]"Buttsauce"[/I][/QUOTE] Would be way better to use the existing lines but with stronger prononciation, insane audio quality, environmental effects and even better - with more creative vulgar litanies.

Those blocky models and shitty textures are like straight from a 1998 game. Actually the original postal 2 looked better than this.

I just hope that they're gonna use The Dude's old voice actor, and not the one from P3

This looks so terrible I want to run myself over with a car.

This remake isn't their idea. This is a completely fan-made endeavor by some Polish group being made on the non-commercial UDK license (so it's going to be free, not as if a bunch of fans could afford a commercial license if they wanted) because Postal 2 is [i]really[/i] big in the Eastern European/Russian areas for some reason. RWS's only real involvement is that they're giving their blessing as opposed to shutting down the entire project.

[QUOTE=Marphy Black;40912685] Postal 2 is [i]really[/i] big in the Eastern European/Russian areas for some reason[/QUOTE] Yes! I can confirm that. Probably because of the fun and creative violence (and voice acting in the Polish localisation) :v:

wow this looks shit to be honest

show this instead [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZlJQUdBr14[/media]

[QUOTE=falcont2t;40913001]show this instead *vidya*[/QUOTE] Thankies, added to OP.

I'll pass. The charm of Postal 2 is that it doesn't look amazing at all. It's stupid fun. I'll just wait until they make a new game (plus the Steam edition should be getting achievements soon, with hopefully a workshop addition some time down the line).

[QUOTE=The golden;40913055]Source is a fucking horrible game engine. I would take UE3 any day without a second thought.[/QUOTE] Band-aid upon band-aid & spitshined "vintage" game engine versus a fairly modern game engine that's developed with experience of previous engines in mind. Yeah, UT3 wins.

[QUOTE=falcont2t;40913001]show this instead [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jZlJQUdBr14[/media][/QUOTE] What's with the tropical theme? It looks cool, but seems out of place with the "trailer trash" theme of Postal 2 Also I see the weapon animations are still shit

RWS just gave them permission to make it.

Really is a shame what happened to postal 3. RWS were faced with either outsourcing the game to get a widespread release and actual funding, or delivering a game they didn't want to deliver. Then after signing with akella they got shafted and realized that they more or less sold the game to them and suddenly they were just cut out and were forced to sit idly by as they watch the russians ruin their game, changing everything, then promptly going bankrupt before actually making an sdk for even RWS to make an attempt to fix somethings on their own. [editline]5th June 2013[/editline] rws effectively disowned themselves from postal 3 and don't even recognize it as a postal game. But hey, RWS is literally a rag tag team of game developers that develop in their spare time.

The first fucking thing I see in the teaser is someone clipping through a door. I do not have high hopes for this.
