Decline Thiaf Pre-Release Thread

[zwanzig_zwoelf]

Usually I don't dream with games, almost never actually, but today I had this strange dream where I was playing the new Thief game and it was fucking awesome. It even had some crazy stuff that I frankly don't know how the fuck I came up with, like, there was a "menu" or something when you pressed TAB that was a big vertical art with many characters, like that film poster style used on Star Wars and LOTR. It was some sort of list in relevancy order of people that need to be killed, and Garrett was at the very top of the big art when you scrolled to the top, doing some sort of "Jesus in the cross" pose.

But seriously, it was an awesome art, I wish I could draw it. As for the game being awesome... Maybe it was a signal and it'll surprise us all

I just had a dream where I played a new Thief game, but intstead of blackjack/dagger/sword I had a chainsaw.
I mean, a fucking chainsaw in a fucking Thief game. I was hiding in shadows, then tried to smash guards with it, but received zero reaction.
But then I started to chop their heads off and finished the mission with A++ rank.

The game will star a Garrett haunted by loss and determined to never kill anyone unless it was necessary.

Obligatory vomiting after the first AMBIGUOUS murder, i.e. games are emotionally engaging art

Obligatory vomiting after the first AMBIGUOUS murder in a cutscene, i.e. games are emotionally engaging art, but only events in cutscenes count

Fixed for greater accuracy. It worked for Far Cry 3, why not Thiaf?

Sarcasm?

Sarcasm?

Yes and no...

 

[DragoFireheart]

Yes and no...

I was being sarcastic. I hope that was obvious.

 

[Brotherman Bill]

I don't think you know what sarcasm means.

I don't think you know what sarcasm means.

And I don't believe I was asking your opinion you moronic chicken shit.

 

[Darth Slaughter]

Sorry, I thought you were asking if I was being sarcastic... which I was, but since it's also the truth about this game it's more than sarcasm. It's fact.

Chick fight! Chick fight!

I might be 6 pages late, but what exactly is swooping? Like the thing in DX:HR you switch covers while in 3rd person with rolling and whatnot?

Edit: just saw those new screens on tumblr, it's like they ripped off the exact rooms from Dishonored (the first assassination mission) but without the lights on the ceilings.

 

[zwanzig_zwoelf]

I might be 6 pages late, but what exactly is swooping? Like the thing in DX:HR you switch covers while in 3rd person with rolling and whatnot?

It's like running, but without any sound, plus you can do it while crouching.

Yes, because crouching, moving slowly and looking out for hard surfaces is teh hard.

Frenchies can't stand 'You're entitled to your informed opinion. So if your opinion is ignorant, it can be considered irrelevant', yet they force that shit like a cult. Enjoy the show.

Nothing much out of the ordinary happening. Viktoria is deflecting the questions with anti depressant fueled attempts at humor while Master Taffer is towing the party line as to make himself look good in hopes of securing his future at Eidos Montreal.

Also it seems that they now have closed down that thread and gone for a much more easily controllable thread aimed at asking the devs how jumping and movement really works in the game. http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=139184 And I quote.

Good question:

I'd like to understand jumping a little better. Can you explain the control sequence and how it works if I want to leap between 2 platforms?

Yes, because we are all fucking morons who don't understand the greatness of contextual actions. That was the problem all along.
