After T7 gets its day in the sun we'll see if they open up about TxSF or SC6. If SC6 gets announced first (bear in mind 20th anniversary), TxSF will have to wait a bit more.

3 Dicks Out For Trips

Quote:
Ryus Hadoken would be useless in a 3d engine, you just tap a direction to dodge sideways and commence to beat downs. Same with the hurricane kick, it would lock him into a long animation in 1 direction, could be easily dodged, and then result in getting your ass handed to you with no ability to defend. Yoshimitsu could literally sidestep and charge up his 1 hitter while Ryus animation played out and then cut him down instantly. Its a difficult issue to work around without breaking the fiction and changing the fighting style of the SF roster to fit the engine better. Youd have to remove a lot of special moves and replace them with combos and cancels. |

Interesting tidbit there about the FF7 remake. It makes me wonder if they scrapped the idea for it to be episodic and are releasing the full story as a single package since they finished the voice work for the "main game" and not episode 1.

Still planned to be broken into episodes. Some speculation the producer might have meant only the 1st episode was almost done or easier for them to do it all at once instead of waiting for future episodes for voice work.

Indeed. I was taking it as the games voice work was done for the main scenario and they just needed to do the voicework for sidequests and other miscellany.
Sucks that its gonna be episodic still. Thats gonna KILL me when I hit the end of episode 1. Been waiting so long for this. |

Yeah and that is the exact point I'm worried it will stop too. I read somewhere that they are fleshing out all the other zones in Midgar to playable areas now to add a bunch of content so maybe it wont be too terrible.

Writing a script and getting actors to record it is something easy and cheap to do, and frontload. The making of this remake will probably be a hellish death march that will burn the company out.

Preloading Horizon right now. The little clock telling me I cant play for another 4+ hours is playing with my emotions.
Also hyped for the new Mordor game. I do find it crazy that its apparently only 5 months out though and they havent even spoken of it yet publicly. Thats crazy. |

Late Night News Edition
Crytek rumored to be facing a possible shut down in the near future. They were previously dealing with serious financial problems last year and it doesn't seem like the situation improved at all since then. Morale itself is really low at the company for its future.
Been late paying their employees, series of firings and departures, and now looking at potential lawsuits from their remaining staff in regards to pay issues. In terms of recent game sales, none sold well or got near the expectations from EA and Crytek. Quote:
