Great... circular shadows. We are ten years ago, now. Very nice, High Voltage...

 

You can't be serious, sif you're gonna be noticing shadows when you're in a gun fight..

That's definitely not the point. High Voltage stated they wanted to achieve the peak in Wii graphics, and it ends as a "more than average" graphical title. I never doubt they would have problems with other than graphics technical issues, such as Wii Speak and online. But graphically, it looks awful. It simply follows the standard I hate in HD systems: high amount of effects, crappy/non-existing artistic direction. And now in multiplayer, not even that.

But answering your question... yes, I'll notice, even more when players' movements are as artificial as it gets.

 

I definitely get what you mean, even though I myself don't care in the slightest. But, keep in mind, this game has yet to go gold, so hopefully High Voltage are working on getting those circular shadows away from Multiplayer as well. We'll just have to wait and see.

Looks pretty promising for a console experience. I'm looking forward to some wicked teamplay

Fair enough, I see your point there. However I do like the pretty bright colours they're using for explosion effects. You can't say that's a generic trait for a FPS game :P

New info via Gonintendo:

- online headcount was brought down from 16 players to 12 in order to keep things running smoothly
- Free for All mode: players frag each other until a predetermined frag count is met
- Marathon mode: get as many kills as you can in a certain time limit
- Three Strikes: play a match with only 3 lives to spare
- Last Man Standing: be the last man standing
- ASE Football: the player that holds onto the ASE the longest wins
- Bounty Hunter: take out specific targets, lose points for taking out wrong targets
- Team Reaper: play Quick Match and Marathon with sides
- Shared Stock: teammates share lives from a team pool
- Team Objective: capture the flag style, but with the ASE replacing a flag
- Team Objective 2: one ASE in a level, grab it and bring it back to your base to score
- WiiSpeak supported, but you’ll only hear the players that are actually standing close to you in the game
- at peak WiiSpeak saturation, you’ll hear the 6 closest players

 

 What no one shot kill mode. :( Other than that at least its got a few nice options to keep me occupied.



Pacman taught people to run around in dark rooms munching on pills while listening to repettive techno music and for that I somewhat idolise him.

This's really interesting ,and i haven't had any problem with 12 players at all. :)

Don't expect too much and you'll be able to happy with everything. :D

is the wii speak hearing only in the vicinity a general wii speak thing or only for this game?

Wow, that's a lot of cool modes. But is there no Team Deathmatch?

Team reaper is about as close as you're going to get a suppose.

12 player multiplayer is confirmed VIA their website.

So, I'm wondering about that legitimacy. I have searched both SEGA and High Voltage and even though that screeshot is solid evidence, I cannot find the page the gonintendo is referencing anywhere and they give no link, so....
