Aftrunner Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 TBH if they can make stylized GN style cutscenes (think Sin City) then they can ditch the comic book panels for all I care. I am still VERY worried about the cover system though. Anyway, copied this from GAF. Summary of the Edge scans. -Vancouver, London, Toronto, and New England R* studios are all cooperating on this title. -Max is working for some guy named Rodrigo Branco in Sao Paulo, and for his two brothers, a politician and a "party-loving dropout". -The story will be a bit non-linear, description of Max in Brazil with a full head of hair at a money drop for a kidnapping. Seems the story will go back and forward in time, possibly in New York, his early time in Brazil, and him in the gutter, bald later on. - In the stadium/kidnapping mission, Max is partnered with a guy named Passos. -The comic style panels return, sorta. Here's how it's described: Now instead of comic book frames, these dramatic plot pointers use the in-game engine and show an animated collage of action footage, similar to 24. -Multiple set piece encounters, including a Mona-style sniper rifle escort bit. -They did a lot of Mocap for this game. Lots of animations and stuff, apparently looks quite impressive. -Bullet time is charged by killing enemies. BT is very detailed. -Max can hold three single handed weapons at once and dual wield two different weapons at the same time. -Pop out and shoot cover mechanic as well besides BT and Shoot-dodge. -Uses Euphoria, which is awesome. Very natural animations for Max and his enemies. -Wheel-based weapon selection system. -Inner Circle may return - some plot threads from previous games work their way into this sequel. Max has been expelled from NYC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aftrunner Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Cause it sounds a lot like GTAs cover system from those Edge scans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Cover system is almost mandatory these days. I'm not worried about it. Plus they've said that using cover is optional and I doubt you'd need it unless you're playing it on the hardest difficulty setting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
