QuakeCon Predictions

Post » Sat Nov 28, 2015 3:25 am

Anyone got any ideas about Quake? Anybody going...going to uh... take a GOOOD look at the behind closed doors footage if there going... Like a REALLY good look... Like... Such a good look that like, even we can see it?

Anyways... I imagine some new stuff will trickle some things out. Something little, or something big?

It's hard to say. Seems like the Skyrim game play at QuakeCon was recorded by several people, saw a lot of tripods on the edges there. Sadly, the audio was totally sh*t because of all the hootin' and hollerin' by the largely inebriated crowd. Some of that video showed up on Youtube, so that it was constantly posted, blocked, reposted, blocked again etc...

Personally, I'd be happy with the IGN or GameSpot text report with a few key stills, and then seeing Bethesda's offical Video edit 2-3 weeks later....

Calm your nipbles, and yes.

I've made a camera so small it fits into a oversized novelty hat.

I expect a mid game content video, unlike the early game we seen so far, possibly they might run a "quest" from start to finish.

I assume beth has no plans to reveal more gameplay mechanics before launch, so the demoer will avoid showing anything new.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking to ridicule me, I can tell you your http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1527252-how-to-solve-any-gkk7z-thread-about-potential-story-lines wasn't funny (I don't have time for haters). What I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long gaming career. Skills that make me a nightmare for people like you. If you let my theories go now, that'll be the end of it. I will not look for you (on the forum), I will not pursue you. But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you, and I will bill you (for the time spent writing this response)

To OP: Sorry for putting this on here, had to be said though!

Regarding QuakeCon, I think we will be getting quite a lot of new info, possibly including an accurate start date. After all, it will be difficult keeping the associated Pip-Boy menus 'hidden' during an hour long demo :smile:

Quakecon ends July 26th, 2015, which can be abbreviated 7-26-15.

If you drop the 7 and the 5, you get 2 - 6 - 1. Add a one to that two and you get 3 -- 6 -- 1. Flip that around, you get 3 -- 1 -- 6.

Based on this evidence, I believe it is confirmed that Fallout 4's story will be about family.

Very intuitive, although if we dig deeper there could actually be another meaning.

If we take the numbers you gave individually, we have 7-2-6-1-5. If we turn these into letters of the alphabet, we then get g-b-f-a-e, which are all letters used in musical notation. If we then arrange these letters into chords, we end up with e-g (major), and a-b-f, or f-a-b (minor). Translating these chords into proper words, we end up with egg and fab.

The first word (egg) relates to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humpty_Dumpty, which legend suggests is also the name of a cannon used during the Siege of 1648 as shown on the wiki, which would tie in with the theme of the American Revolutionary War. The second word (fab) relates to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles, who were also known as the Fab Four. Given the numeric theme of your suggestion above, we see that the numbers used are written in decimal notation, which is base-10. Using this information, if we look at The Beatles' 10th studio album, you will notice that it is called Yellow Submarine. And this ties in directly with my http://www.gamesas.com/topic/1523172-is-vault-111-built-like-a-submarine regarding the design of vault 111.

The big difference between this 'coincidence' and the ones I have posted on my threads is that this one is not likely to be incorporated into the game by the devs as an easter egg (no pun intended), whereas the other ones are.

EDIT: back on topic, QuakeCon will be awesome! Can't wait to get some new details from the many articles that will follow :smile:

Beats me. as for micro cameras? don't even get me started on that, those damned things are being built into everything from WORKING AC power converters to http://www.penrecorderpro.com/hd-camera-pen-hd90?gclid=CjwKEAjwiZitBRCy0pb3rIbG9XwSJACmuvvzelZEBEuphJsGZ-u00IOyNiVS_DyFuFtITuyAAOOOTRoC_X7w_wcB

Big apologies to the original poster. This is actually a very valid thread and I didn't mean to deviate the discussion in any way :)

So, back to QuakeCon. Given what we have seen so far, and the subsequent feedback (or lack thereof) from the devs, I think we may be in for something of an information overload. The reason I say this is due to the sheer volume of information already available in the trailer and the E3 demo. This is how most of the details we know of have been conveyed, rather than the devs simply reading from a list, and the game does actually look to be in final stages. I read a comment recently that suggested it may already be content locked, which I believe is more than possible at this stage.

Considering the QuakeCon demo is likely to be a little longer than the one shown at E3, it would be hard to imagine this not being the case. In keeping with the footage shown to date, I think Bethesda may well stick with a male protagonist for now. Saying that, it would be awesome to see the female protagonist in gameplay, as this will give us an opportunity to look for any noticeable differences (apart from the obvious ones, of course).

And so let's all hope that we get a ton of new information. The many articles that will be posted following the demo will make for very interesting reading, but the icing on the cake will be when we actually get to see the full demo posted up by the devs (I for one will not be responding to any comments related to 'non-legit' sources on any of my own or other people's threads)

canned videos, safest way to avoid bugs and generakly keep things under control what we get to see or not.

I made a similar post for you regarding a wall of text you posted awhile back, but had to run out before I could finish.

Wall of text.

EDIT: I do admit though that some of my posts are a bit long!

Woah... Ok, so. Its ok to have a bit of fun on here, I don't mind.

Nobody do anything illegal/mean I was joking and I can't wait to read what IGN, Gameinformer, whoever else puts on about the video and I'll be sure to see what the gameplay is when it comes out legally.

Good morning from the USA.

I think I covered everything, everyone carry on.

I agree with you about sticking to legitimate sources.

I think it's important for us all to be smart about this, and we can all learn from the experience of leaks posted after the Skyrim closed demo. As long as we are discussing official articles from recognised sites, or first-hand information from actual attendees, we should be fine. The last thing we all want is threads being shut down left, right and centre because of links to bootleg images or videos!

Exactly. I remember how angry Pete Hines was when like a week before Skyrim game out it was revealed you could play as a werewolf.

I actually hope that they find a way to prevent illegal videos and images this time. It's always better to have proper sources, because then we're able to talking about them as much as we like, and we don't have threads getting shut down.

I suspect there will be enough "leaked" video, that whatever gets phone-cam'd gets an official post to youtube and general media.

easy have people turn in any phones or wireless devices then have them walk through a low level magnetic area (just enough to fry electronics )
