Holy crap, the tutorial looks awesome! Look at that giant Shivan boss!

Galaxy City looks so beautifully destroyed!

Honestly? Nothing that really blows my mind. It's pretty much just a bit of motion attached to the pictures we've mostly already seen. Minidon was kinda neat, I s'pose.

But it still wasn't as neat as the Steampunk Pack trailer.

I love it! I got a better understanding of the scope of what's coming. It's great and all but it's missing something...*cough*CG*cough*, I just can't put my finger on it.

First Ward looks cool. Are the mobs in black with the runes and guns also Carnival of Light?

Shivan in the Underground Trial? Praetorian Devouring Earth look like Primal which is a shame.

New tutorial looks chaotic.

Not entirely sure I like the visuals of Time Manipulation. Just looks a bit generic to me.

Defence set looks generic, IDF will be useful.

Finally get to see First Ward in video form. That place is looking killer!

First Ward and Destroyed Galaxy look cool.

Love the new "lava Shivan".

I like the hooded guys in black and yellow.

The Seed and the Avatar of Hamidon look cool.

Lots of REALLY BIG letters. Horrible awful annoying noise that somebody probably thought was 'music'.

Other than that, wootness incarnate.

The CoL might be borrowing some folks for training from the Resistance. DeVore works for both, after all.

There are some differences; they're supposed to look more sinister and corrupt than Primal DE, if you can believe it. I can't seem to find the design article on that, though.

What's 'generic'?


61866 - A Series of Unfortunate Kidnappings - More than a coincidence?
2260 - The Burning of Hearts - A green-eyed monster holds the match.
379248 - The Spider Without Fangs - NEW - Some lessons learned (more or less.)

The Defense costumes look generic without being bland. What I mean is they look like a nice "basecoat" to build a costume on- I kinda like that.

EDIT: OK.. if that's the AVATAR OF HAMI in the Underground Trial.. Great Googly Moogly!!!!!!

And isn't the Defense set composed of IDF pieces? Anyway, love the trailer, but I want those Carnival of Light costume pieces. Also, you think those hooded guys are holding would could be the model for beam weapons?

Watch it again with the sound turned off on the video and play THIS MUSIC instead.

True, forgot about that.

Ah yes, I guess it was just the bluish jelly-like stuff and the bipedalness that made me think more of Shivans than Hamidon.

Guess I need to see more of it.

For Time: I guess it's just the greenish glowiness really, doesn't make me personally think of Time. Kind of reminds me of Kinetics stuff in its original colour.

For Defence set: It'll make a good base for things, kind of like how the Stealth set can. It kind of makes me think of the "Sport" set. I like these kinds of things though.

I need the see the effect of time manipulation before I make a verdict.

They look like slightly modified and recolored versions of the rifles the Resistance uses:

We need a release date!

Or at least open beta soon!

The second I saw that Time Manipulation animation, the Time Warp song started playing in my head.

Look at the IDF costume sets. No back pieces! Not even chest details that wrap around like the IDF have! I'm serious now. Why do they insist on keeping the backs of our characters so bland? We spend most of our play time looking at the backs of our characters, they should look as good as the front!


Issue 16 made me feel like this.
Warning: This poster likes to play Devil's Advocate.

It was all right, I preferred the issue 20 trailer though, it had a bit more coherence to it than "Look at this, and this, and this, and this." And the Time Manipulation spot told me nothing of the set other than 'Swirly line effects occur!'

Just watched it with the sound off and it was much better.

Some scenes were ambiguous as to whether they were play or cutscene (giant monsters doing various things). If they were play scenes, then it looks great.

They could also follow one scene for more than 1/10 of a second. It would make it coherent.

Oh Gods, my husband loves that movie. (He collects films like that.)

I'm hoping we'll get the IDF chest detail too, it's one of the pieces I wanted most from that set. The defense set looks like something I might use under other pieces of armor, more for mix and matching than being used on its own.

Other than those quibbles, issue 21 looks awesome, can't wait to play with it.

All the cutscenes in this game use the same graphics engine as the rest of the game so there's not really any difference between the look of a cutscene and actual gameplay.
