Vertigus posted:Yet another case of simulating a camera rather than simulating a set of eyes. Human brains filter out all the bobbing your head does when you walk so you don't even notice it. Well, it's all about how the camera does it. If the camera locks its center focus at infinity, while the body of the camera kind of shifts around slightly while maintaining its focal point, everything is fine. People don't get sick when the camera moves like that because that's how people's eyes work. They maintain a focal point while your head bobs around. It's when they make the camera flop around like its placed on a freely swiveling ball joint that's set where the character's head should be that people get motion sickness.

Greatest OP ever in the history of the forums. If only the Skyrim thread wasn't such a spergy, Morrowind-white-knighting piece of poo poo... The sheer amount of hype for this game makes me really glad I haven't played the first two. There's no way I can be disappointed, unless they pull an Alpha Protocol on the combat.

Good thread, thanks OP! I have to say I'm excited enough about this game that I will ignore literally everything spoilerish about it until there's a cheap GOTY edition to buy and I have a new computer/neural implants so I can play it while I walk to work. Seriously, though, this could turn out to be the first game I buy near release since RA2. Must resist hype... But if there's even one vehicle/rail shooter portion then it's betrayed the original and belongs to the console newbs and new gamers and I'll just sigh and buy Invisible War and wonder where we went wrong.

Fridges. edit: I just realized with all the new people, you guys probably haven't heard about The Fridge yet. Well, let me enlighten you. This was originally posted on the PC PowerPlay forums: ThePhotoshop posted:I'm PRETTY sure the biggest thing you can throw at someone is a fridge. I tried without the aug and it gave me the TOO HEAVY warning. Will let you know. ThePhotoshop posted:Holy poo poo. Guys. ThePhotoshop posted:Oh crap. ThePhotoshop posted:OK, just to confirm a few more things. Oh, and my own experience: Tecman posted:Two things which I myself did: used boxes to get over some electrical current on the floor (place box, while on box move second box bit ahead, move to second box, place first box, ahead, etc...), and then there's the best thing ever which I posted on Eidos: spending 5 minutes shoving not one but two fridges out of a tiny window in an apartment complex onto the streets of Detroit, getting each fridge to window level by using boxes so I could shove it out. I did this because a certain apartment complex had barred doors and the only way in or out was through a couple of tiny windows high up. I finished up with "I am about to unleash death and destruction on the poor, unsuspecting city", and that's exactly what ended happening.

This is the game that AP wishes it was. That game was such a failure, but DX:HR rights all of those wrongs and just does so much right.

Alpha Protocol wasn't exactly a major commercial success, so it's no surprise it didn't go further than the first game. DA2, despite being one of the worst games of the last few years, was very successful. I too would milk that cash cow, especially when the engine is done and most of your fans don't seem to mind that you're constantly recycling all forms of content without creating anything interesting in the process.

Deus Ex facebook page mentioned this thread. Just popping in to mark it, then ignore it as I'm on a media blackout for this game and know only as much as what was revealed up to some E3 trailer. god I hope it turns out to be a good game but I don't think that'll be a problem.

...wow, I had no idea the fridge was so powerful. That's amazing. I thought the heavy lifting aug was mostly just for gaining access to areas but now I see it's good for so much more! I take exception at calling Alpha Protocol a failure; more like a gem with a couple of really, really big flaws running through it. The number of non-combat things that game keeps track of is amazing, and from what I've seen I don't know if even DX:HR will approach that level of story-mutability. All that said, it looks like it's going to be pretty drat fun to play.

And my attempts at using the fridge usually stop at taking down gangers and police. But it is dang fun to use it in that capacity.

That is the most beautiful OP I have seen. Now, I do have a question. I have a terrible computer. This is making me consider getting DE 3 for Xbox or PS 3 instead, because I'm not entirely sure when I'll be able to replace it. The question is, will Human Revolution be moddable? Has Eidos even commented on it? I can't think of any other advantage the PC version would have aside from possibly controls, and I'm honestly not even aware of if Deus Ex had much of a modding community.

Only a month left before the game gets released. I'm stoked. Also, once I read that Montreal would have a playable part in the game, I checked the image, and I recognize that Burger King, (original concept art to compare), there's just no big gently caress-off building in the middle of the park, and the traffic goes the wrong way on St Catherines. But hey, nice to see that hair dresser is still there in 16 years time.
