CJacobs posted:It's almost certainly accurate, FEAR is one of the best optimized games I think I've ever seen. The FEAR expansions were done by third party studios without Monolith input. They're really bad compared to the base game. One of them does have the best Steve Blum scene ever though, in which Steve Blum watches Steve Blum tortue Steve Blum.

Yo what's up with Project Warlock getting almost pitch black when you get close to a wall? Weird fluke of the lighting engine? Also I almost want to restart because I shoulda got the slug upgrade for the pump shotgun. I can't remember that last shooter I played with slug ammo.

Like it makes you realize just how effective Monolith was at using their dynamic lights and stuff for the environments because everything looks trash without it. FEAR still has the best office spaces in gaming. Amebx fucked around with this message at 12:31 on Oct 23, 2018 |

There's a setting in the options menu called threshold. Turn it all the way down and voila you can see.

I liked when the pizza twitter jumped in on the domestic violence hashtag more than this GOG thing. Also Project Warlock is cool, but I am hoping they work on some of the visuals... Make it a bit more presentable. Some of the Egypt levels are impossible to see what the gently caress is going on without cranking the brightness.

Yeah the egypt episode is where I got fed up with the dark levels and just turned the 'Threshold' option down to 0 to unclamp the colors and cranked the brightness all the way up. Without doing that the magic orb light spell is pretty much necessary whenever you aren't shooting.

I spent an hour playing it and it gets better in later levels but the lighting mixed with the art style makes it hard to play. I like using the axe on the zombies, though. It reminds me of Splatterhouse.

I think he's well aware Ion Maiden is Build Engine. His comment's more some random conjecture as to what that other, unannounced title that the tweet hints at is. Also, Ion Maiden on consoles is rad. I wasn't certain if the Build Engine license would allow for a console port, though? Admittedly open source licenses are a major headache for me in general, I can never keep what is or isn't legal straight with them.

Actually shooting stuff in Warlock is so good, but it's another case where a really good retro shooter has some kind of bewildering design decision. Usually it's stuff like the red scrolls in Immortal Redneck or some other kind of bad RNG-based system. The dark levels in Warlock just have a bad pacing to them. Besides that, the only other complaint I have for the game is the framerate cap. It's hard to describe, but the game feels like it was made for a higher framerate than it will let you play at. Also is there a way to see how many secrets are remaining in a level while still playing it? I keep swearing that I have all of them after checking, but keep finding out I missed like 3 or 4.

Admittedly open source licenses are a major headache for me in general, I can never keep what is or isn't legal straight with them. Whichever entity originally owned and provided the Build engine to the community under an open source license retains the right to provide it to someone else under a different license. It would just have to be the original Build engine without any of the work contributed to the open source project.

Ion Maiden's demo thing was so good, and I'm hoping that's just what we get more of. I'm really tired of retro-style games where it feels like someone goes "Man, nobody is just gonna have fun shooting all these cool enemies with our fun guns in our well-made levels. We should add in permadeath, randomized bad drops, and oh a melee weapon that you can upgrade and force the player to use by making the guns get like no ammo."

Sorry, I'm wrong, that wasn't "random conjecture as to what that other, unannounced title that the tweet hints at is". Apparently the PR email makes the fact it's a Quake engine game very much explicit.

ETPC posted:Weird they would use DarkPlaces when it hasen't been updated since 2014 Daily autobuilds of DP are still going, although with the absence of available changelogs as far as I know (unless you actually start digging into their SVN repository) I dunno what if anything has been changing. Still, I'm not too surprised that a new-game project would use DarkPlaces. DarkPlaces isn't the greatest choice for "normal" Quake but it has a ton of added engine features and hooks for implementing new stuff in QuakeC. If they had stuck with the original Quake source or a more "faithful" port like Quakespasm they would have more of an uphill battle to make anything that diverged a lot from Quake. (FTE would have been another possible engine choice.)
