Jack Bauer 24's IGN news thread

No link to the article or video? Thread Fail.

http://www.ign.com/articles/2014/01/02/deep-down-gets-new-prologue-trailer

Trailer shows pretty much 0 as far as gameplay and what not. Based off this trailer I'm left with a, "Meh...unimpressed" feeling but as more info comes out it might be interesting. Although the whole F2P thing is a no-no for me.

Getting that same unimpressed feeling for what little was shown. And it's a F2P from Capcom? Oh, I can see the rip offs now.

It looks like Demon's Souls and Dark Souls, right down to the mouth-chest enemy and knight helmet. :shrug:

Huh, I thought the original poster was going to confess some long held, buried feelings.

It's ps4 exclusive? Darn. Maybe if it proves to be good, it'll be yet another incentive to invest in the console as I'm still on the fence.

The video is only in Japanese, but it looks like it might be worth checking out, especially if it's free.

Except the combat is looking much simpler in Deep Down.

Hmmm...on one hand, the targeted melee system looks like it could have potential.

But on the other...boring dark caverns in square-shaped corridors? Capcom, you need much better level design than that. And the announcement of being free-to-play has just killed my interest completely.

Now that we have details of what this game actually is, it is kind of disappointing imo. When it was first announced I thought it would be a sequel to dragons dogma. Now I learn it is actually a F2P Multiplayer game set in 2094 New York? I have lost all interest.


I don't get it. :blink:

Not enough information available yet for me to tell if I'm interested or not. It certainly looks very cinematic...

Judging from the gameplay, it will be something kind of fun but ultimately not special. Just looks like a parry-based melee system with locational damage, which is great, but it doesn't look very polished or exciting.

Interesting enough where I am slightly intrigued. Boring enough where I am pretty convinced I don't want to buy it. Especially with free-to-play being in. Which is code for pay to win 99% of the time.

Do you think this is an excuse, or the truth? It's easy to blame it on morale, but EA was the publisher :facepalm:

Or it could be that EA shut the studio down two months before the game was released.

Could be because the game itself never had any potential to begin with.

I'm gonna go with this. I have the first one, I think I have the second one. Either way, I never beat either because I found them to be mediocre at best.

The complete lack of bromance in the latest installment in the series removed the only unique thing about it [AoT series].

I think this would be a huge morale killer.

EA has a long history of demanding games be released half finished, in an unreasonable amount of time, over working employees and screwing over customers. This is exactly how they destroyed the Ultima Series.

Not sure what that was about, but hope all is well.

Or it could jsut be that the Game svcked. The Medicority of 40th Day had some redeeming features, but the third one just plain svcked.

Lulz... not that hard to improvise on speeches. Then again, he probably cared nothing for the product or event for that matter.
