http://xbox360.ign.com/objects/950/950254.html This is old, and it may have been in the old topic (Don't think so, though), but Prototype has been delayed to April 1st, 2009. They have denied it being a joke, quote: "Could it be that the retail giant is just trying to get a jump on next year's fooling? Sadly, Sierra says no, although the company isn't ready to assign it the April 1st date" Unquote. However, the good news is, that they're saying they need more time to create the game they initially set out to. THIS IS PRACTICALLY AN EARLY BETA THAT THEY HAVE BEEN SHOWING??!!? Then whats the FRIGGIN finished one going to have?!?!?!? Quote: "Since its announcement, Prototype has been regarded by many as groundbreaking and taking the open-world genre in new directions, and in the simplest explanation possible, we need more time to deliver the game the team initially set out to create." Unquote There is also speak of potential multiplayer. This probably means extended co-op functions and deathmatch, e.t.c. OPINION: Having long matches with one Prototype, and the rest Blackwatch grunts (Not army troops, those are cannon fodder for the player. Blackwatch are still weaker, but far nastier than the army), with Blackwatch and Prototype both having a Counterstrike-esque buying menu and the prototype getting more points for new mutations to buy in-match from killing Blackwatch, with infinite respawns for them, would be fun. Like Juggernaut or Mutant, with the player doing the most damage OR the killing blow-dealing person becoming him, or the person in the closest vicinity, through a random choice or designated 1-2 transfer methods. OPINION ENDED Multiplayer Quote: What does this delay mean for multiplayer? "As we've stated previously, Prototype's multiplayer development was never 'off the table' but rather under evaluation and on hold," a spokesperson said. "Now, with the updated 2009 timing, Prototype multiplayer is still on the table for evaluation, and further details will be revealed down the line." Unquote So, while disappointing, it is still worthy of WOOOOOOOOOOTing and nerdgasms. *Falls to the floor in horrid nerdgasms, before red tentacles suddenly spout out of his back merge together, and form a crawling, spiky dismembered tentacle on the ground* That was weird..... *Is attacked by tentacle* Ahh! Ah! Oh god! Oh god! Get it OFF ME! |

F**k yeah! More publishers should think this way. If a game needs more time to be perfect, simply create that extra time instead of hurrying up the development. |

Yeah, same thing they did to Destroy All Humans: Path of the Furon and Super Smash Brothers Brawl. So it's not so bad. April 1st is what the site says, but the company says they aren't quite ready to set the April 1st date. Edit: Agreed, Bjossi. Although I hate being tantalized, it's for the best. Again, think about it, it's a friggin early beta to what they are aiming for, maybe mid-beta. And it still looks amazing. What the hell could happen between now, and then?!??!?! More powers. More missions. More mayhem. More devastators. Speaking of which, I made my own concept of a possible uber-transformation, not compatible with other powers when active, making Alex Mercer a monstrosity of a creature, 20 feet/60 tall and long, crushing tanks, eating and absorbing people with abandon, and snatching low-flying helicopters out of the air. Will post pic if possible (Made it in the Creature Creator. So versatile....). I'm not sure, but is it possible to link my pic directly to a computer file, like my avatar? Or will that not work? I don't have Imageshack or anything at the moment. Oh, and they've done the same with Spore, delaying it to make it better. But it seems things have gotten cut and become more light-hearted, though............... |
