The lego bit at the end of the video was gold.

Still nothing on rtwp/tb mode? Bah

They mentioned to me that they have an interview with Tacticular cancer coming up, that be a good question for the interview

Totalbiscuit is apparently very excited about this project So I'm hoping he does some coverage soon. I haven't backed yet but likely will before the end.

Paging Dr Trash, paging Dr Whisky

That is a good question. Unfortunately I've sent the questions in last Thursday.

This project looks extremely promising. Really liking what I see/hear here.

Too bad I'm competely out of cash at the moment. Wish more people would support this. A project like Massive Chalice getting more money than this project is a Massive decline.

So true

I'm wondering if its the fact that its in pounds that its going so slow?

according to the reddit, it looks like RTwP is out, it will be RTwithoutP (or maybe I missed something)

As far as I remember, the original Syndicate had no such thing as pause.

 

[Galdred]

It didn't indeed, and it was not very tactical either (other posters have mentioned cannon fodder, and it is almost a good analogy...), while this one claims to be. That said, Close Combat doesn't have any pause option either if I recall, but the action is far from frantic in this one.

 

[zwanzig_zwoelf]

Could be just a demonstration. Some games are shown on easy difficulty to slowly show the gameplay features, not the playing skill of the developer.

 

[Infinitron]

ITT people are mad that a game plays like the titles it's selling itself as a homage to

 

[Diablo169]

The next Street Fighter should be turn based!

Sounds like Toribash.

I think new Gran Turismo should be turn-based.

Is it me or it seems they will barely made to their goal, if reach it at all? They have 17 days left and still need 139 000$. Last days often see some money influx but still they'll need a lot of funding to rach their minimum goals.
Looks like not a lot of people are that enthusiastic about Syndicate remake.

It's you. They'll make the goal.

 

[spectre]

17 days is plenty for 139 000$. If Jagged Alliance managed to make it, so will this one.

 

[Awor Szurkrarz]

Probably because it isn't a Syndicate remake.

They will make the goal, doubt they will get many stretch goals though.

 

[Sensuki]

I'm glad they've sort of talked about game mechanics and stuff a bit, but they don't really have anything to show do they? In-engine screenies etc would go a long way here.

 

[Volrath]

Schaefer killed kickstarter!

 

[Space Satan]

It looks like funding stalled to a halt. 228k out of 350. I hink our only hope is something similar to JA: Flashback - last day enthusiastic funding from those who already kickstarted.

 

[Branm]

Biggest problem I think is that this shit is in pounds.

They have provided more detail then a lot of other kickstarters. Still sure it will get funded but could of gone MUCH MUCH higher if it were USD.

Guys I recall there were pretty tacticalll missions in SW. There was this thing where you were guarding/escorting some bigwig and you had to split your party and scatter all four agents across the map to make sure his passing through the city was safe. I remember it was pretty frantic if my memory serves me right after 15+ years. I would think it would be awesome if they managed to recreate this kind of gameplay. I will pledge if my unemployment benefit comes in time.
