Sounds like Ellen Page

[media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrO5cb1lnKQ[/media] Supposedly they are also going to be giving out one year of free DLC, in order to attract players to stay and keep playing. Honestly, this game has definitely slowly crawled up my list for games I'm playing this year.
I [B]LOVE[/B] the on the fly weapon conversions
So according to the guy in vid, the Guerrila Warfare aspects survived the swap of developers?
[QUOTE=OmniConsUme;49611113]So according to the guy in vid, the Guerrila Warfare aspects survived the swap of developers?[/QUOTE] I don't think the developers ever swapped, seems like it's mostly the same team still, only the publisher they're working for has changed.
[QUOTE=_Maverick_;49610914]I [B]LOVE[/B] the on the fly weapon conversions[/QUOTE] It's fully animated too! Haven't seen it like that before.
Honestly, one of the more major turnoffs this game has for me is how it's fucking North Korea as the antagonists is the chinese market for FPS games [I]really[/I] so big that we can't lose it? I didn't even think FPS games were very popular outside of the west, aren't RPGs and stuff far more popular over there? [editline]26th January 2016[/editline] It just makes it extremely difficult to take the game seriously when the real NK can barely feed it's soldiers, let alone attack and capture an entire country

And the North Koreans in Homefront aren't just North Koreans, it's a Republic made up of both Koreas united and one that has taken over Japan that's been weakened after some war.
[QUOTE=usaokay;49611577]It does make sense to have Chinese invaders more than a small country like Korea since China is obv known to be a large superpower alongside with US and Russia. Having the combined forces of Korea invade the United States is unbelievable no matter how you attempt to weaken the country.[/QUOTE] In the Homefront story, Korea basically is a super power that's the size of Imperial Japan at that point and the US is in deep financial crisis and also has a massive flu epidemic going on that has already killed 6 million people. In that state, it seems perfectly believable that Korea could invade the US.

SK and NK would unify B. they would attack Japan C. They would attack the US You have to make multiple logical and political leaps to have Homefront's backstory even begin to work. This is not the sign of a well written story
[QUOTE=Starlight 456;49611624]North Korea in Homefront was pretty clearly meant to be China, but they had to change it because otherwise China would ban it they can add all the backstory excuses they want but it's still fucking stupid[/QUOTE] Okay? So they can create a backstory that actually makes it all make perfect sense, but it's still stupid cause you said so?
[QUOTE=simkas;49611123]I don't think the developers ever swapped, seems like it's mostly the same team still, only the publisher they're working for has changed.[/QUOTE] Sort of, Deep Silver snatched up all the laid off employees that they could when Crytek was going under

[QUOTE=simkas;49611632]Okay?

My immediate thought is why the fuck didn't they base their trailers on the co-op and weapon customization until now? Still looks pretty forgettable imo, but at least it's better than the last few trailers.
[QUOTE=Super Muffin;49612697]My immediate thought is why the fuck didn't they base their trailers on the co-op and weapon customization until now? [/QUOTE] I'm guessing the customization was not complete yet, or it is different in SP because it is not real time.
They made an entire trailer for homefront 1 about North Korea being the main antagonists. [video=youtube;nTdXJVbIvy0]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTdXJVbIvy0[/video] It's far fetched to say atleast, but some of the events predicted in the trailer also happened in the last few years in real life.
I liked the first game :v: Not gonna lie, the Multiplayer was fantastic in 1
[QUOTE=1nfiniteseed;49612275]Call me crazy, but the idea of any other east asian nation, like Japan or South Korea, willingly joining a North Korean led republic does not make perfect sense.[/QUOTE] I thought the timeline was kind of interesting, because it's an echo of history where countries that no one thought would ever become world-class powers end up proving them dead wrong. Kinda like how no one thought Germany would be a world power before the Franco-Prussian War, or Japan becoming an industrialized giant of Asia in less than a century. Homefront timeline is [URL="http://homefront.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline"]here[/URL]. You're not crazy; Japan didn't voluntarily join, and South Korea only re-unified under very specific, alternate history circumstances. I don't find the timeline terribly unreasonable, but yeah I do wish they just stuck with China.
Those hit reactions seem really stale. I'm not a fan of hitmarkers in single player fps games
swapping out uppers faster than mags lmao I'm all for weapon modularity and customisation but that's taking the biscuit The fat it has coop does pique my interests a bit but whether it actually sells me on it depends on the overall gameplay mechanics - I hope losses do actually set you back quite a bit, and anything you invest and consume is gone until you go to some lengths to replace it instead of just unlocking things and having them available whenever, it would make for some logical chaining together of your missions, eg you have no AT but this potentially lucrative target is protected by armour, so first you have to raid an outpost or some shit that has them. Is that wishful thinking?
Man that narration was really cringy.
The AI also looks a bit braindead to me.
