Title: State Of Emergency OMG!!!!!!!!
Post by: Gman2 on November 26, 2001, 11:16:38 AM: It is official, my new favorite developer is RockStar!!!!!
They did GTA3 and now they have State Of Emergency coming!
It\'s like GTA3 with out all the cars.
You all HAVE to read about this game.
Most of you probably already know about it, but for those who don\'t, all I can say is check it out.
Gamespot has a lot of info on it.
Here is one of the previews

Rockstar Games has released the first details on State of Emergency for the Sony PlayStation 2. It is described as a mission-based urban riot game, where players must smash everything and beat up everyone in order to advance through the game. At times, in situations involving street brawls, players may have to participate in fights with up to 100 people at once. There will be four city-based environments in the game, with at least 20 missions apiece. These environments will be fully interactive, as players will have the ability to loot stores, bomb cars, and break just about everything in their surroundings. At their disposal will be a variety of weapons, including traditional weapons such as grenades, rockets, shotguns, machine guns, and flamethrowers and weapons available in the surroundings themselves including bricks, benches, trash cans, and dismembered body parts. There are two primary modes of play, the story-driven progressive mode and the freeplay mode, where players can wreak havoc at their own pace.
Considering the large cast of characters and the virtually unlimited gameplay possibilities, Rockstar promises that State of Emergency will use an advanced AI system that gives the characters uncanny intelligence and realism. Each of the characters reacts to the environment and game events. For example, helpless citizens may choose react to violence around them by cowering, simply running away, or running to the nearest police officer for help.

EDIT: I was looking at that pic, and I noticed something rather funny. How come so many people in the pick are running towards the explosion? ;)

Post by: SER on November 27, 2001, 09:14:15 PM: They have some pretty good ideas, Rockstar has..

But the thing I don\'t really like about their games is that they always have that "cartoony" look to them.. Anyone agree?

Post by: IronFist on November 27, 2001, 09:51:44 PM: I like the cartoony look. Too much realism would make the game less fun IMO.

Post by: SER on November 27, 2001, 10:50:00 PM: Oh, I guess we have diff tastes.. I personally dig something that is more real.
Title: State Of Emergency OMG!!!!!!!!
Post by: IronFist on November 27, 2001, 11:08:53 PM: Yeah -- it\'s just a personal preference. I really don\'t want graphics to be so good that I\'m asking myself, "Is this real?" Violence in video games is fine until it gets to the point where it\'s hard to distinguish between reality and fantasy.

Post by: OHMYGOD on November 28, 2001, 12:13:45 PM: This game looks really good. I wonder if you\'ll be able to go inside buildings and stuff. Exactly how detailed is it?

Post by: ddaryl on November 28, 2001, 02:50:37 PM: I like th egraphical style

not every game needs to have un parralled realism\'\'and the cartoon style detracts from the M rated content enough to make the game feel like a game

Post by: fastson on November 28, 2001, 02:57:31 PM: Mmm.. Yes.. GTA3 style graphics..
I like that :)

Post by: Kimahri on November 28, 2001, 02:57:37 PM: Looks great, but i got a beef with it.

I know it would be impossible to make that many different character models but they could have made a little bit more, it seems like the same character is seen about ever 4 or 5 people.( eccept for that fatty with the bazooka........ maybe thats the character you control eh?)

other than that, it looks good.

Post by: Sublimesjg on November 28, 2001, 03:24:34 PM: actually the characters arent all the same

they are wearing a lot of the same colors though and it causes them to clash but if you look closer at that pic you can see differences in the clothes they wear and that sort of thing
Title: State Of Emergency OMG!!!!!!!!
Post by: Kimahri on November 28, 2001, 04:02:21 PM: i can see what you are saying, there are a lot of clothing with the same colors, but there are still quite a few repeat characters, maybe just not as many as i thought before.:)
