Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Crackdown 3 Looks Really.. Weird?

I actually enjoyed a lot of what I saw at Microsofts Conference and I actually preferred it to their E3 conference. 

I'd never seen much Crackdown before so I guess I don't really know what the expectation is but does this look good to the Crackdown fans? I was kind of confused by it all it looked really awkward in my opinion.

 

 

As someone mentions in the comments, the walking at 0:48 is kinda funny.

It looks like they showed it WAAAY too early. It doesn't look too good (in my opinion). I don't like the art style, and the world looked boring to me.



It's indeed weird to see buildings fall like Jenga towers as if nothing would keep them together. Look at 1:55 the building on the left.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Its looks great on the devs PC screens but not as much when they showed the multiplayer world destruction.



How badly is server lag going to be? input lag ect? Im not a fan of useing cloud for "extra" inside a game.

I think game developers should stick to what a console can do, and not off load things else where, while instead introduce other issues.

Looks like Crackdown.

The fun in Crackdown is using your abilities, collecting orbs to upgrade them, and the verticality of the open world. It's not something that will be captured in a short video.

They look to have added a ton more destruction, better gunplay, and a cool looking new criminal syndicate system where stuff is connected.

It should be very good.

'Power of the cloud' was mentioned with 20x more computational power and things so... Always Online?

Looks great to me! Loved the original CrackDown. Could well be another to go on the want list for XB1 once it's below £200.

My only gripe with the original was it didn't have much going on once you'd wiped out the gangs.



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Its a fast game similar to Unreal Tournament. Both look weird because not many games run like that.
