Looks too UT, not my thing at all

lmao, if you think that looks at all like UT, then it might definitely not be your thing

It couldnt look more different if it tried!

I agree with HAz, it does have elements of UT about it. I don't think he actually meant it visually resembled UT.

What has any resemblance then ?
Surely not movement (dodge jumping wall jumping - no one really bunny hops in UT unless they are really crap), weapon & fire modes (no different firing animations - not referring to gun models, firing modes)

I watched it and thought of HL2 and HL2

M

Absolutely super Single player game With an absolutely terrible MP bit bolted on.

nice action tho.

Exactly, was waiting for that reply.
It's HL2 DM, nothing more, bar the suit.

Agree, this will be a stonking SP game, but the MP looks lacking in variety and Longevity imo.

Dont forget that the vid is only showcasing one mode of gameplay (Looks like FFA) which is bound to be the fastest frag fest...

Those who would prefer a realistic tactical alternative might want to click on the links in my signature

Will the mod be released before Crysis, or after?

edit: before anyone skins me for aking a release date. I meant, are you allowed to release it before?

Obviously, the leaping miles into the air part. This part certainly reminded me of UT, and nobody ever said "it looks exactly like it" or "OMG same000rrzlol!!11". You have played UT I presume?

No need for that, I wasnt being aggressive.
Yes I have played UT... and still do every night.
You cannot leap miles in the air, only when you jump on a boost/mini escalator thing. But still has no resemblance to UT

Who's being aggressive? Asking you if you'd played UT is a fair question, as from your comments I didn't think you had. You obviously don't remember the mavity in UT.

It's really simple. That screenshot reminded a couple of people of Unreal Tournament. That's it.

Im sorry but I just find that it has some resemblance to UT/quake ect, im not talking about rocket jumping and all that its just the fast paced and jumping off wall which made me think that.

For a few reasons we will be releasing 2-3 months after Crysis. The main ones are:
1. You will need Crysis to play Obsidian Edge 2.
2. We cant gear up for a final release until their code is golden, just in case any last minute changes of theirs impact us.
3. As our BETA testing has to be restricted to NDA holders only until Crysis is released, even with our large team, we wont have the chance for full server testing till after its out.

We hope to hit that window where everyone who bought Crysis is just about ready for something new...
HTH?

Actually HAz I can see the similarity to Quake Arena in that Alley firefight...
