Looks good except it's kinda hard to see people outside on high settings atm.

Old school arena shooter based on power weapons though = yes :D!

e: Has mod support and I think it's using dedicated servers. So yay.

This looks like a really nice game. I haven't been too deep into really any of the arena shooters, including quake. The only one I can think of that I messed around with a bit was Nexuiz. Seems like a cool game to take breaks from TF2, and etc...

It's like how bad CS:GO was before they toned down the dust and shit clogging up the vision in every map. It's hard to see what's going on, one of the problems that UT3 had was this as well. Hopefully it gets better. The gameplay itself looks okay but all the J.J. Abrams effects take away from the experience IMO.

those weapons have the most ridiculous sized splash holy shit, the skill ceiling on it looks extremely low. pretty sure one of them is like a minigun rocket launcher like really

Not even a proper tu quoque because you're basically comparing 2 different genres of games but I'll give it to you

Regardless of whether or not I play console shooters, nothing changes the fact that this game looks insultingly bad compared to games like quake etc. I want an arena FPS revival badly but im not going to act like this game is good because its obviously not unless some big changes are made

rise of the triad was an explosives-heavy game. in this game the only non-explosive weapons are a pistol and an mp40 i think.

The game seems like cod but sped up to like 300%. I personally don't like it, blends too much realism with an arena shooter.

This reminds me of the mod that useoftoaster made, except without the jumping and better graphics.

They couldn't find somebody on their staff that can aim, I guess.

Rise of the Triad probably won't be a great competitive e-sports title, because it was never a very serious game in the first place, but I think the thing here is is it's a PC only old school arena shooter with dedicated servers & full mod support and if the title does well that could send a message to other companies to make more titles like this which could be great competitive games.

If it's half as good as the original it should be an amazing fuck around game tho.

lynaThe game seems like cod but sped up to like 300%. I personally don't like it, blends too much realism with an arena shooter.

It's nothing like Call of Duty at all, ROTT is/was a game that blends psuedo-realistic environments with more parody/humor stuff stuff outside of the look. I mean, there's a power up that turns you into a dog and you kill people by biting their nuts off.

It's cool to note that the original Rise of the Triad was the first FPS to have the ability to aim up and down with your mouse.

Is bitching about movement this community's version of every other's bitching about graphics?

Like seriously you're looking at what is ostensibly unskilled gameplay footage and whining about how you can't speed-pogo.

StarzZI don't really like the movement at all and its hard to see :(

You realize this is a developer (who while better than really bad people is still going to be really bad generally) who isn't even using bhopping or rocket jumping or any of the movement techniques really on gameplay footage intentioned to be a trailer so it has to be maxed out (and thus hard to see if you are every game that isn't Team Fortress 2, and even maxed out TF2 can be hard to see sometimes) rite. >:<

The game is more than likely going to be fine on super low settings + Smooth Textures.

Graphics != visual style.

Teleglitch has god-awful "muh retro" pixel graphics but everything is distinct - you can easily tell the difference between enemies, find hidden crevices, and know which parts of the environment are dangerous and which aren't. TF2 is ALL about visual style, even with all these god damn hats and cosmetics. You know who is what class and what they're holding. It's not about framerate, it's about being able to distinguish at a glance what's what. So far, the multiplayer demo videos haven't shown that this exists.
