Death Wing FPS.

To this, only one word: Heresy

I shall keep an eye out for them. Thanks for the recommendation.

 

I'm loving that new emoticon!

 

I would krabbed I no money bank not funny! Eh!

Just heads up.

Probably going to buy it before November For The Emperor.

 

This would be the FPS game?

 

Yes, I was considering of getting it for me and my brother in case it is actually fun to play.

Can't tell if it is, don't even know if the weapons will have static values or if it's another one of those "your pistol is level 13 and does no damage".

 

I think we already have a thread about this: http://www.theskjaldborg.com/index.php?threads/death-wing-fps.9462/

Nice to see it's moving along, though. I tried to register on their site a few months back, but never got a confirmation email.

 

I'm more concerned whether or not there's going to be more Chapters involved - at least for the multiplayer.

Any word on release date? I see it's up for pre-order already.

 

The plot for the game is written by Gav thorpe, He has written all the 30k Dark angles novels. There really good. I hear this game will be featuring members of The Fallen, I doubt there be any other chapters but i think we will see some Dark Angel vs fallen,

 

Dorn is not amused with the lack of Imperial Fist Terminators

 

I play chaos, I could care less about all you unenlightened clone lovers ^.^ I will however enjoy murdering some xeno simply because.

 

Clones? What fandom are you talking about?

 

Smells like... Heresy...

 

huh, guess I never really investigated it, I just assumed they were bio-engineered clones since they are so genetically superior, but no, that makes far to much sense, somehow they manage to bio-engineer regular guys into these superhuman monsters... whatever.

 

I thought I saw a release date for November.

I was tempted to buy for me and brother but then I remember that No Man's Bullshit and a couple of other examples of how a pre-order can end up biting you in the ass with a dildo these days.

So definitely going to wait to see the initial reaction and some gameplay to have an informed decision.

As always a demo would be nice but the current trend argues that "demos reduce sales", probably invented by EA and Sony.

That said last time I had a demo to test on an interesting game I bought the game within 30 minutes and never regretted it.

 

I can see that you would have many people not wanting a buy a product if it's not to their liking, but "demos reduce sales"?

Take a walk back with me to the 90's - Diablo, the first one, allowed up to 4 people to play together even if only 1 person actually paid for the game - 3 could use the same disk to install the 1st Act demo and multiplayer. It worked well enough to make it a best seller.

 

I didn't know it was a thing until stumbling upon a number of American game devs who mentioned it.

Ever wondered why there are no longer demos for any of the big games?

This is why. Someone somewhere at some point made a policy change. "No more testing our games before you buy". It used to work best when combined with no-refunds policy. All you needed to do was hype your game and it would sell a lot, forget about people trying it out, "pre-order now!"

And I do know that it's insane.

I just wrote the other day on Quora about how companies that lie should be brought to court with class action on basis of false advertisement.

I've spoken of it before.

Do you know what I get every time I speak of it?

I get Californian asshats showing up and saying that it's preposterous to try to regulate their industry, bla bla. "We're not hurting anyone", "it's your fault to believe our adverts".

That's about the fastest way you can earn a block from me on Quora. Fuck those people.

Sorry for derailment.

I just really, really preferred having an actual official demo version as opposed to EU forced 2 hour refund limit where I have to set an alarm clock to 90 minute mark and watch out that I don't botch it or I could lose 60€.

Factorio offered a demo, tried it last week and immediately bought the game.

 

I would love to see demo's come back, actually Warcraft (not, World of) had one of the best demo's ever, it didn't even really have the whole 'this is the end of the demo, please buy the game' instead you get to the final mission and simply get swarmed by the opposing faction in a very Kobayashi Maru scenario.
