[QUOTE=HoodedSniper;44051055]But Thief 2014 is a bad game. Next your gonna defend the shitty linear level design lol. You still havent given any defense as to why the no jumping is better than jumping, because id love to fucking hear that shit.[/QUOTE] Oh I'm not saying that no jumping is better, I'm saying that I don't give a shit that they decided this way would fit their game better. I havent yet felt held back by the lack of jumping so whatever. Also it's not even all that linear, they give you quite a few paths through most of the areas to take. [editline]26th February 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Tetsmega;44051159]They're pretty buggy, as you can shoot one at the wall behind them and they don't even notice. Those arrows are meant for hitting those random glass objects that make a ton of noise.[/QUOTE] Yeah they're designed more to interact with the objects littered around. It makes sense that breaking a bottle with them would make more noise than the dull thud of light wood on a wall
just saying 99 percent of the time totalbiscuit is always right about the game and how i feel about the game also ignore sniper hes always like this hes just bias all because of he saw a leaked russian stream of the xbox 360 version..
[QUOTE=BeardyDuck;44050996]if we're talking about thief 2014 here, you can buy blunt arrows for a single gold piece and you can use it to distract guards.[/QUOTE] Do noisemaker arrows not exist anymore because that would be really stupid.
There are blunt arrows which fill the same role

But guess what, its still garbage, it didnt magically change from when I played it and what I saw on the 7 hour playthrough. Ya this $50 game ends in 7 hours.

[QUOTE=No Party Hats;44051339]There are blunt arrows which fill the same role[/QUOTE] That's dumb. What a pointless change that seems less functional based on what you said.

this games AI is retarded im playing on master mode a hour in so far and thats my only problem. The AI is either so dumb that it can't see you a foot away or omniscient to the point that it can hear you half the map away. it gets really fucking irritating at times to the point where i quit, especially since i want to ghost the whole game. everything else is ok i guess. i like the custom difficulty stuff but i am not doing that until i beat the game. Would of gotten angry if i bought this for 50$, but i got it for 33$ so eh.
[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;44051378]That's dumb. What a pointless change that seems less functional based on what you said.[/QUOTE] It's basically just as functional because you generally always have a nice selection of metal/glass objects lying about that'll make more than enough noise.
[QUOTE=No Party Hats;44051388]It's basically just as functional because you generally always have a nice selection of metal/glass objects lying about that'll make more than enough noise.[/QUOTE] But why not just keep the noisemaker then? Since it does the same shit but is useful 100% of the time instead of just when shot at specific things.
[QUOTE=3221drdew;44051382]who the fuck are you kidding here because i'm not stupid i remember that thread with the russian stream.[/QUOTE] I never saw a single ounce of 360 gameplay, you are just parroting what that other shitty poster was saying. I never even saw a single russian stream lol. [editline]26th February 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=chunkymonkey;44051406]But why not just keep the noisemaker then? Since it does the same shit but is useful 100% of the time instead of just when shot at specific things.[/QUOTE] You cant talk with that guy, he will defend all the shitty aspects of the game, including the no jumping.
[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;44051406]But why not just keep the noisemaker then? Since it does the same shit but is useful 100% of the time instead of just when shot at specific things.[/QUOTE] I figure that they wanted to add something that'd be less of a jack of all trades distractor and have you interact more with the environment I dunno, I can't really agree with them removing the noisemaker either but at least the replacement has a pretty similar use
Hoodedsniper, did Thief touch you when you were a child?

It does more than the noisemaker including the noisemaker mechanics.
Not really? The Blunt arrow is best used when you have a bottle or some shit you can see that would get peoples attention when broken, the noisemaker arrow didn't need that kind of situation. You could just use it wherever.
[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;44051406]But why not just keep the noisemaker then? Since it does the same shit but is useful 100% of the time instead of just when shot at specific things.[/QUOTE] They can hit switches and shit now. So It's to make it more environmental vs your own preparedness.
[QUOTE=Tetsmega;44051512]They can hit switches and shit now. So It's to make it more environmental vs your own preparedness.[/QUOTE] That is useful but not very realistic... but I guess I can't [I]really [/I]complain about realism in a Thief game all things considered.
[QUOTE=chunkymonkey;44051565]That is useful but not very realistic... but I guess I can't [I]really [/I]complain about realism in a Thief game all things considered.[/QUOTE] Switches as in wall buttons, by the way. They push them in, they don't flip like a light switch or something :v:

Blunt arrows can set off certain traps, they can set off all the switches, and can be used to make a distracting sound. How is that not more than noisemakers? Also thanks for spending actual money on me, thats fucking hilarious, you sure showed me :)

[QUOTE=No Party Hats;44051574]Switches as in wall buttons, by the way. They push them in, they don't flip like a light switch or something :v:[/QUOTE] Well I figured as much. :v: Still, I dunno, they just don't sit right with me. I'd just have rather had the noisemakers. Just seems like a change for the sake of change to me. I dunno, I'm still trying to sort out how I really feel about this game. I prolly won't even get it unless it goes on sale and get really cheap or someone buys it for me.

If you can get it for like 15 bucks or so like some of these guys did, I'd totally suggest you try it mainly cause even if you really hate what they're doing with the game, you cant go wrong with 15 bucks just to see how it is!
[QUOTE=Blazedol;44051460]Hoodedsniper, did Thief touch you when you were a child?[/QUOTE] Thats not funny at all dude, you should be more considerate before you seriously trigger someone on a real life matter.
[QUOTE=3221drdew;44051617]stop it hidden poet we all know you are a poet.[/QUOTE] You know, you're not helping things. Just thought you should know.
Fuck, just when I wanted to give him the exact same title
[QUOTE=damnatus;44051677]Fuck, just when I wanted to give him the exact same title[/QUOTE] You can still spend real money on me if you are the type of person who really cares that much about a forum poster out of thousands. Hell make better use of that money and just gift me RE4 HD on steam.
I spent it on Thief Oops :v:
[QUOTE=damnatus;44051741]I spent it on Thief Oops :v:[/QUOTE] Thats cool, its your life choice and im not against that. But remember next time your gonna spend money on me, send me a telegram and we can work out an arrangement on whats the best way to spend your funds, because a forum title is a HUGE waste of money. You could buy me a side of fries or two donuts from dunkins.
