In depth preview - interface + radio

Post by **War Chief** » Sun Aug 28, 2005 11:39 pm

Found another lengthy preview which is similar to mine, though this guy reports about the radio feature which I wasn't shown and describes the heads up display (HUD) user interface Link.

A very good read (though not as good as mine! :p )

Odd that they don't refer to Cleon by name...

"For starters, two of War Chief's pals were left on the ground handcuffed by police, who had then been distracted by a rival gang."

Basically the guy you are controlling is called War Chief, which could have been any of The Warriors since you get to play as each of them, so it may not have been Cleon.

Pretty interesting read. The fact that dead enemies dissapear is a VERY unwelcome mistake that I sure as hell hope they change that.

Yeah, it doesn't help in the realism stakes! How can you fight the Furies and not see them all lying around in the park when your finished - heh heh heh!!

Bodys Still there when you stand there for a few minutes and then Walking away and back again to find it gone is normal in a Game but I agree to have it Dissapear is a Mistake sign.

But its like that old Saying "You May not have enough members to star in amovie but that doesn't make it great."

Not sure where i heard that.

Guys bodies dissapear for a reason. They vanish because if there are too many bodies on screen the games frame rate will go down horribly. If they kept the bodies like that then they will probably have to downgrade the graphics. Thats why they dissapear in games period.

I know but I was refering to that when the Body disappears it shouldn't be seen.

It takes away that feeling besides if the body disappears that takes away the Stealth ness of hiding the body incase your on a stealth mission or whatever.

In the Rockstar game "ManHunt" You can kill the gnag memebrs and carry the bodies anyway. Lets hope its like that.
