Decline Thiaf Pre-Release Thread

[Admiral jimbob]

Honestly, I just didn't enjoy the additional Gold levels much.

The opera building was fantastic. The other two I could live without, although they had quite some good ideas of their own as well.

2013, 30fps

Yup, definitely next-gen.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

i don't know you but i lose my eyesight at 30 fps =_= everything less than 60 feels choppy, less than 30 gives me headache. luckily i never bought a console.

I like this story from day before under related stories. http://www.videogamer.com/ps4/thief/news/thief_on_ps4_will_look_almost_identical_to_pc_version.html

Wil they look almost identical (when paused) or will the pc version also have terrible fps?

 

[Lancehead]

^That sounds like the "platform parity" thing BioWare was talking about with DAII.

 

[Zewp]

They probably mean Thief on PC will be a horrible port.

They probably mean Thief on PC will be a horrible port.

That was already a given. I mean, they can claim it's "next-gen" all they want, but the game has been in development for 5 fucking years. It's just an upsampled 360 game, with all the inherent decline.

Pretty sure it's been rebooted at least twice so not really.

"Future of Thief dependent on reboot's success"

"If people don't like this game, I doubt we're going to have more."

 

[Diablo169]

Poor attempts at emotional blackmail over the nostalgia I hold for a classic game is not the way to get me to buy your sequel. Fuck off.

 

[Jaesun]

So... don'y buy this shitty Thiaf game so they won't make more shitty Thiaf games? OK.

 

[Azazel]

This is probably the single best piece of news I've heard about TEEF since it was announced.

a big FUCK OFF to you then.

LOLOL YEAH WHAT THE FUCK. Worst extortion ever. Give us all your money or we won't come back and rob your bank again.

 

[skacky]

Apparently the advertising was too good so they deleted that thread.

And here we see Shamus Young discuss why Eidos' claims about Thief's AI being possible only on next-gen hardware are utter bullshit:

[skacky]

Very interesting read, sea.

 

[Azazel]

It's nice to see someone tearing apart the PR bullshit like that. Maybe someone will do "Every raindrop is individually simulated" next.

 

[MetalCraze]

Thiaf's AI?

It's being coded by Assassin's Creed AI programmer.

With Volrath's favorite western production values surely it must be great!



This is how Thiaf will play. Remember 4 or more guards can be the problem!

 

[Melan]

"Future of Thief dependent on fan missions"

There, that's better.

Ah the good old Alan Wake is only possible on next-gen (xbox 360) systems argument in its Thief form. Different game, same bullshit.

 

[retardation]

Was it known before that there won't be any zombies in Thi4f? Here's confirmation:

[hoverdog]

This will be the least of Thiaf's problems.
