Playing in Die Another Day. Fighting in North Korea while Icarus is activated. Oh my god I want this game.
The fact that this is coming to PC too, looks great, finally a seemingly great looking Bond game.
I will buy this.
Shame that they have to put in such a horrid Bond film.
Though, I suppose playing some of the sequences from Die Another Day could be fun?
WHY MUST THERE BE A RAIL ON THAT AK
WHHHYYYY
(relevance? It seems like this game is copying CoD on a lot of assets, (I posted a bunch of pictures a while back in the moonraker thread), and a AK with a top rail just adds another to that list.)
other than that, mediocre film but it could be fun.
While the movie was not that good, I think the action sequences could make fun gameplay.

Because AK-47's with rail systems dont exist in real live and CoD invented it.
Really? God damn dude.

because it's completely pointless to put a scope rail on an AK [B]without a sight attached to the rail[/B], it only hurts the acquisition of the sight picture, and it makes the rifle more heavy (and harder to disassemble, but that's another issue that's not relevant to games)
It's something MW2 started (CoD4 and Black Ops did it correctly), and I don't see why it's so hard for a developer to look at common sense instead of doing something just because it "looks cool". There is literally no other reason to do that other than looking similar to MW2/3 (if you can think of one apart from subjective aesthetics, enlighten me).
I probably wouldn't care as much if the rest of the assets didn't share so much with CoD.
Buying this just for On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Good god, it's a piece of metal. It's really not worth complaining about.
Are all the Pierce Brosnan movies in this game? Because Goldeneye had to be one of the best Bond movies ever.

again, I wouldn't give 2 shits if the overall aesthetic wasn't simply "let's apply the cod formula to the bond movies"
that's the vibe I'm currently getting. I feel the game could be so much better if they applied more traditional aesthetics that were true to the original movies, instead of "modernizing" it.

[QUOTE=RubberFruit;37253437]meh, ok, but is Bond not all about the 'cool formula'? It's got gadgets and puns, it's the furthest from realism you can get, personally a railed AK is exactly what I'd expect.[/QUOTE]
Bond is about cool gadgets and shit for bond, but not the enemies necessarily. If they gave bond a MP5K with collimator sight, sure it would fit.
well bond also is about (in a lot of movies) the old soviet enemies and a railed AK doesn't really fit with your average soviet soldier. In fact, that's one of the key motifs of the movies, contrasting bond's suave and slick gear and manner with the coarse gear of his enemies. A railed AK simply doesn't have a "cold war" vibe. It actually is the combination of a western standard (the picatinny rail) with an eastern standard (the AK side rail). Truly a product of the 1990s.
We didn't see railed AKs in goldeneye, and the game is called "legends" after all.
Here's hoping they bring in the best part of DaD, Miranda Frost.

Oh my god, can you stop whining about something so insignificant? It's a bond game, it has a gun that looks like an AK, you can shoot people with it. Nobody cares if the AK doesn't match with the one in real life. People like you are getting very annoying on this forum

This reminds me of Nightfire, which is awesome.

it's not about it being unrealistic, it's about whether it's CoD: Bond Edition or not.
I'd prefer a game that's more like Blood Stone (which is basically Splinter Cell: Bond Edition), because Splinter Cell has more in common with Bond than CoD.
the visual elements are good indication of what inspiration they're going to make the gameplay like, especially if you WATCH THE TRAILER.
The only thing I see that could be an issue is the distinct lack of gadgetry.

Why oh why does the main character have to be Daniel Craig?
He's the new, re-imagined bond. I want to play as one of the original bonds.

Just because its a fucking gun with a fucking attatchment doesn't mean its Call of Duty. Jesus christ, get over yourself.

I've said this in 3 other posts
but this is just flying over your heads
It's not just this piece of media, it's my impression from the game overall from all of the media put out.

sort of looks like cod doesn't it?

You're starting to piss me off. It looks like a bond game (btw, those missions seem to be highly influenced by the ones in Nightfire). Not every modern arcade FPS is a COD spinoff, quite the opposite actually. It has guns, explosions and
movie-like shootouts, exactly what you'd except from a Bond game. And a COD game for that matter, doesn't mean one is a spinoff of the other.

Some people are just a bit too entrenched in the "action movie-like game? SOUNDS LIKE COD TALK LET'S BURN IT!" mindset.
