They did the same thing in this second demo that they did with the first demo vis-a-vis multiplayer support. They teased the potential without giving anything away. You only noticed it at the end of the presentation that the camera was being controlled by some username and it was trying to counter-hack the main character (similar to how a second player was tracking the main character from the first demo) but if you watch the video a second time, you'll notice that the same user was controlling cameras earlier in the demo.

Of course I start dreaming about sneaking into other players games and becoming their bad guy (what Brink promised but didn't really deliver) and being "the system" they're trying to take down but I'm sure Ubisoft will ruin my hopes somehow. Whatever it does end up being, though, I cannot help but think will be a compelling and fun experience. I really hope they reveal what they're planning at E3 because I don't think I can go another year without knowing what they're up to on this title.

I hope they have hundreds and hundreds of different NPC backstories. I would hate it if I come across multiple "pro life tobacco executives" in the same area.

How about thousands? :3:

Yeah, do we know anything about our protagonist or why he's doing what he's doing yet? Seems to me he could very well be some jackass with a grudge and a magic cell phone rather than a righteous cyberpunk vigilante.

He's doing what he does to protect people close to himself.

It's covered a little here: Clicky

Gonna link this again because it explains a lot!

Oh no the thread died, have some new info!

Bunch of stuff about Aiden's background, the slowmotion/bullettime and world size!

quote:

GC: So it�s at least as big as open world cities from this gen?

DG: It�s a very, very big open world city. You can go even beyond the borders of the city and you can go on the water, on the lake, if you want. So it�s very large. But what�s more important to us other than just making it large is making it dense. So you can go in interiors, you go � Chicago has an under-city, you can go there. You can go on rooftops, there�s a lot of things to do. Because it�s great to have it big, but for our game and our systems we need to have density, a lot of richness. It�s a balance.

I'm wondering if the reason for the trailer "leak" is the whole NSA/PRISM poo poo that's going down right now, because once the "I'M WATCHING YOU" and "You'll never be free again" stuff hit, that's all I could think of, and I don't know just how shook people are right now. Don't want to make a big deal out of the game right now, so dump the trailer, minimize the hype, and hope everything dies down before the release date.

I'm pretty sure they "leaked" the trailer to increase hype, especially due to recent events :v:
