https://i.imgur.com/W7iha6l.mp4 You've gained Dogzouf Digital Release: June 1st on PC (Steam/GOG/Epic)/PS4/PS5/XONE/XS Retail Release: June 30th 15% Preorder Discount to $33.99 on all platforms https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtqVLk1vC-I Necromunda: Hired Gun Streum On Studio's third game, after their initial masterpiece of jank E.Y.E.: Divine Cybermany and the disappointing Space Hulk: Deathwing, returning to Warhammer 40,000 once again. Though even EYE was essentially bootleg WH40K run through a impenetrable translation from French. If you have any excitement for Necromunda: Hired Gun it is certainly because you hope Streum On can recapture some of the magic of EYE. N:HG is a FPS where you play as a bounty hunter, with a faithful pooch, surviving the Underhive of Necromunda. Right now, before release, we don't know how this game is going to turn out and it could go either way. So fingers crossed that we get something closer to E.Y.E. than Deathwing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w6aRPlfjNN0 To quote the official website: "Necromunda: Hired Gun is a linear, fast-paced FPS with a full story campaign to play through. It includes side contracts that you can get from a central hub, and you have plenty of ways to customize your weapons and upgrade your character, but the game isn't a looter shooter." After the slow pace of Deathwing, the developers have decided to focus on mobility. There is a grappling hook, wallrunning, and combat looks far more agile in general. There are various upgrade paths for your character, your dog, and your weapons; though your character isn't fully customizable, you choose from 15 presets. https://i.imgur.com/U4KMDKX.mp4 Necromunda? Basically, it's a bad place in the future. Though what in WH40K isn't? This will get you started: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYW7-aW9R7c It maybe WH40K but forget the Space Marines for a moment. Necromunda is a setting at the lawless dregs of an overcrowded society entirely focused on industry. The surface of the world has been rendered nearly uninhabitable, billions live in enormous hive cities where physical and social height are closely linked. At the bottom, in the Underhive, there is no law. It is an urban jungle, with Houses and gangs fighting for territory, itself an endless tangle of industrial machinery.   Technical Details posted:No planned Linux release. https://i.imgur.com/ThyrMTh.mp4 Can Streum On reach the heights of E.Y.E. again?

Crossposting this, as the first real look at the game. Though French just does not sound intimidating, yell at me all you like it still sounds cute. BexGu posted:So its in French but a video of the first 25 min of Necromunda: Hired Gun just dropped. Mordja posted:Probably not, but it's bound to be better than Space Hulk by default. Play posted:These pre-threads make it way too tempting to waste money on games that turn out to be bad. Stop it, you  I've already put down my money so I'm strapped in for the ride good or bad.

Thought for the Day: Blessed is the mind too small for hype. Some English impressions of the game from a Youtuber/Streamer. I guess FHI gave him an exclusive, so keep in mind he's not likely to bite the hand that feeds him. I know I hate watching this sort of stuff just for a few tidbits of information, so here is a summery:

Arbetor posted:That list of bullet points has definitely increased my hype, with only one thing that gives me slight pause: Enemy resistances, particularly the word "ineffective". Hopefully it just means choose weapons intelligently (i.e. don't bring two melta weapons) and you can swap and deal with everything.

First 40 minutes in English, not bucking any stereotypes the guy playing in this footage literally blames his controller for any bad play. Also I hear that Kal Jerico, who appears near the end, is a reasonably famous WH40K/Necromunda character. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOEgD_VIGRY

Here is the official release timing for tomorrow, on PC they are going with a midnight release at Paris time. Though that doesn't agree with the countdown timer on Steam. https://twitter.com/PlayHiredGun/status/1398277888894459905

The counter on Steam reset, now the release is in 30 minutes for 6PM EST/3PM PST. Nothing more precise for the other storefronts, so wait and see. Also people who got the game early are finishing it in about 8 hours, by mainlining the campaign and not doing the bounty missions on the side. A real rush on Youtube for who can upload a complete playthrough first. Rebel Blob fucked around with this message at 22:33 on May 31, 2021 |

Play posted:I played the very first level only and got all of one chest, the one that teaches you how to open chests, and I even looked around a good bit trying to find other ones but nothing. I assume you can go back and do whatever missions you want again to pick them up? Also, developer update (bolding original): Second Community Update posted:Hi everyone,

First patch has dropped, though it's fairly minor. Turns out that they left developer functions, like turning off in-game collision or textures, assigned to the numpad keys. That's now been fixed.Patch Content posted:You will find below the main fixes that this patch is bringing: Also Streum On is taking a bit of community feedback on takedowns: https://twitter.com/StreumOnStudio/status/1400835486797664262

I found this interesting, so I thought I'd share. How does WH40K + Streum On gun designs strike a real weapons expert? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CTGVSBS97M I'm also surprised Gamespot has a feature worth watching, but of course it from someone who doesn't work for them.
