Conduit uses a lot of shaders, that may not be scalable without looking really damn ugly.

The lack of having local multiplayer doesn't really bother me, if at all. I am happy they're including LAN, so my friend can bring his Wii over and play some. However, I really doubt we do this too often.

Really, I'm just hoping for a super smooth online experience...one that's similar to MoH: Heroes 2. At the same time, I want stat-building or a hook (a la CoD4), that brings me back online day after day.

The Conduit, all in all, just looks awesome.

I hate stat building, it just leads to stat whoring and is even worse if it gives advantages beyond maybe a pretty icon next to your name.

The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.

KDR_11k · « **Reply #404 on:** August 22, 2008, 01:34:20 PM »

The absense of a feature in a feature list does imply absense in the product as well.

Finally, a video that shows full customization.

interview. from it, it sounds like they may be trying to get more than 16 players in online matches.

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #409 on:** August 29, 2008, 04:22:40 PM »

Sounds like a trainwreck waiting to happen, to be honest. Besides, sixteen is plenty.

Possible product placement sighted, though I think it may be a coincidence given that HVS is in Illinois and the sign isn't an exact match. Also, it's typically the publisher pushing to add such things.

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #411 on:** August 29, 2008, 05:04:10 PM »

Spinzilla they are trying to get more than 16 but if it doesn't run smoothly they won't bother.
Party Bear I really don't mind product placement as long as the game is fun and plays great.

maxi's dupe!??!

BeautifulShy · « **Reply #413 on:** August 29, 2008, 05:48:00 PM »

I don't have a dupe he probably didn't read the previous news.

EasyCure · « **Reply #414 on:** August 29, 2008, 06:23:26 PM »

take a joke, you're no fun

ShyGuy · « **Reply #415 on:** August 29, 2008, 11:17:42 PM »

Played it, looks like a 360 game. Controls are very similar to Metroid Prime 3 but a little faster. Enemies work in the environment better than I thought, not too much clashing style. Booth guy from High Voltage was great, both knew their stuff. Asked me and everyone else after the demo play through what they didn't like about the game. I told him the enviromental damage and interaction felt a little muted. He told me they had to do that due to the nature of the game.

Tidbits!

- Want to do LAN play if Nintendo will let them
- 16 player online deathmatch, etc
- Heard about wiispeak at E3 like the rest of us
- Want to incorporate Wii speak, but waiting on Nintendo
- Would like to incorporate Motion Plus if possible.

Spinnzilla · « **Reply #416 on:** August 29, 2008, 11:24:42 PM »

Did they happen to give out any more details about online other than what we already know?

Great 2010 release confirmed.

2010 - the hardcore game is coming, just you wait!

DAaaMan64 · « **Reply #419 on:** August 30, 2008, 12:27:10 AM »

ehh, I don't see why they should do that at all. Just don't do it. I mean, I don't think they need to isolate the mark THAT much/

WHY DIDN'T YOU ASK THEM ABOUT LOCAL MULTIPLAYER? YOU GO BACK THERE AND ASK THEM TOMORROW.

If shyguy doesn't, I will.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #422 on:** August 30, 2008, 02:33:56 AM »

Split screen multiplayer? He only mentioned lan and online when multiplayer was brought up that I heard. I don't expect all the features to make it in, this was just their wish list

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #423 on:** August 30, 2008, 03:11:53 AM »

I know he didn't mention splitscreen. WHICH IS WHY YOU SHOULD ASK ABOUT IT.

Hello Meteo, welcome. Did you play Medal of Honor: Vanguard on the Wii? it has 4 player splitscreen death match. I enjoyed the single player games as well.

I'll definitely have to check out Vanguard. It looks like Quantum of Solace may have local multiplayer as well (hopefully this one is a good Bond game).

I'll add to the chorus: Someone please ask the Conduit folks about local multiplayer! I will buy this game if they have it!
