Huxley Game, Massively Multiplayer Online First Person Shooter Game, MMOFPS

gobbly2100 · 13-06-2006, 07:19 PM

For those of you who don't know Huxley is using the latest Unreal engine to work from in making this game, Spending some time looking at the current videos on Huxley the more I see it performs just like Unreal, The Pace and movement mimic that of unreal, Even looking at the vehicles and the way they drive and handle seems very simila. I am wondering if anyone else has anything they can add to agree or not agree with my opinion.

Well, it would be kick ass if they were using the unreal engine. AND it would make sence. THUS IT MUST BE SO!!!

Lazermatt · 13-06-2006, 07:56 PM

I dont really like the speed and pace of Unreal games, so I'm hoping it doesnt go down that lane

I hope they make it a fairly realistic speed. Not too slow but not too fast.

DaLLAMA · 13-06-2006, 08:05 PM

Hmmm, i guess your right, i never thought of that. Your right, speed needs to just right while still look realistic. Who cares if they'er running for half an hour, fireing and carrying weighty equipment

One stupid thing about the in game movie i noticed was the incredibly stupid speed of the APC and the way it didnt even skid at the corner. It looked so fake

Go join the real military if you want realism.

Lazermatt · 14-06-2006, 12:23 AM

um...no. if u want all games to be ridiculously fake you do that, not everyone is like you, you know.

DaLLAMA · 14-06-2006, 03:00 AM

I think Laz is getting at that fact that, he wants all the action from the millitary with none of the risk. But he does have a point, buried. If they have the ability to make this game feel like real life, all the better...

Guys remember we aren't even in the beta stage yet. Games change so much from pre-beta to release. I think the end result will be awesome.

^^----Listen to this guy, he knows of what he speaks

What makes you think it's not at the beta stage?

As for the actual TOPIC of this thread. Yes, it looks and feels like UT. Hell the level they built for E3 looks like it could be something coming off my UT Ed albiet much nicer and more professional than anything i've made yet.

I believe in one of the articles they remarked and complained on how it was just playing UT and nothing "Massive" about it. Of course they were playing a single player demo map against bots so I dont take their opinion too seriously as they expect the whole MMO at E3.

I do think it will play and feel like UT and I hope it does. UT has always had some of the fastest paced FPS gameplay I've found. One thing they've always remembered is that realism doesn't always make a game fun. No shit I can't double jump in real life, does it add to gameplay though?

As for vehicles, I'm not worried, they proved they could have functional vehicles in 2k4, though they were a bit weak in my opinion, so I think that an MMO will have some very awesome ones.

Can you actually dodge and stuff in the game like UT games? i like how it's fast paced and hope they don't decide to make it slower paced. I don't mind fast paced realistic but if they make it realistic and slow the pace down then i'll pass on realism.

Silenoz666 · 14-06-2006, 04:51 PM

Yeah, there are some definate downsides I can think of to a slow MMOFPS. When you respawn, who wants to walk 3 minutes to get back to the battle? Times that by how much you play, and you'll spend half your life walking. Don't get me wrong, I like slower shooters like Halo, but not in the context of an MMO.

OR, even worse, if they take a page from PlanetSide, then the more you get killed, the longer it takes you to respawn

BUT, on topic, I am quiet sure that even if it is extremly slow passed, they will find a way to make it incredible. Don't blame Huxley, blame the engine and its popularity.

Lazermatt · 14-06-2006, 05:20 PM

The remark you made about 'i dont want to be walking for 3 minutes'. Why on earth do you think there is speedy weak Vehicles?

They'er there for mine fodder

Lazermatt · 14-06-2006, 05:27 PM

They are so fun to drive about in. I just cant help myself from hopping in a speedy car/bike and speeding around like a lunatic just about running people over. Anybody seen the in game movie of 'Cell Factor'? It looks so FUN! The buggy in it looks like something that will be in this game.

DaLLAMA · 14-06-2006, 05:31 PM

I can agree, will you there, but IMO, all the little vehicals are good for are driving around and looking cool and giving me targets to sight on with
anti-vehical weopons.
