[QUOTE="Rigga911"]i think cows and lems are upset that they wont be getting the game since its only on the wii =DGiancar
seriously, not even the most 360/ps3 fanboy is upset about it... Maybe about Madworld or Tatsunoko vs Capcom, but not this one Just TVC (rumors say that it might go to PS3) but definitely not The Conduit. We don't cry over shovelware. Sheep saying The Conduit will be good is like people dressing up a bum and saying he will be the next president.
Wow... That game looks a lot worse than I originally thought. Xbox 1 shooters look better IMHO. But, as they say, it's not about the Graphics.. :| Which means I hope there's something I'm missing.. The physics are crap.. *look how the enemies fall when they're killed*.. The AI doesn't seem to scream Intelligent.. Why are wii gamers hyping this?
See heres the thing, it is generic, but that isn't the worst thing. The worst thing is the developers track record. I mean sure it can improve and is doing some pretty cool things (16 player online w/ voice chat) however there will always be doubt because of the developer. I hope it does well but I am not holding my breath.
However, since it still has 5 months of developement left, I wouldn't count it out.
I'm seriously not sure what the hype around the game is. I'm a large Wii supporter, but the game is just... not wowing me. Still feelt MP 3 had better graphics and controls, this one... it's just. Well look, I give the team kudos for trying to be original, and they certainly look passionate, but I'm not seeing anything here to really diversify itself. Not saying it will be terrible, but hard to discern because of the flood of other shooters out there. The attention it gets mostly is because it's on Wii and is only one if it's kind on Wii, where the market of shooters are flooded here and I just don't see this standing up to those games.
I'm not going to be sure about getting this game until reviews and further impressions come out. If it flops then I look forward to Redsteel 2. If that flops then I look forward to Timespitters 4, but if that never comes out...no more FPS for me this gen.:(
The conduit is not supposed to be origninal looking. It's supposed to be strictly traditional. Somebody has to do a really good traditonal shooter on the wii before others can start throwing in shooters that sell on gimmicks like time stopping or terrain deforming just to get attention.
Red Steel and Disaster: Day of Crisis looked promising as well.foxhound_fox
WTF? one always had terrible previews for its controls and the other is a light gun game. The Conduit has proven to have amazing FPS controls and is a full on FPS. The only problem I see here is the terrible AI. This game could be bad, but it will be for completely different reasons than RS and DDoC
That's actually a very old trailer - one of the first if I recall correctly. If you want up to date footage of The Conduit, go to IGN and watch vids on the first level. It looks a lot better. The Conduit does look promising, which is more than I can say for the vast majority of Wii efforts out there.
If people can look past the graphics and see how it plays, it looks fun and very good. Graphics arn't that bad for a wii game either, thanks to the engine High Voltage are working on.
And knowing how well some games can work with the wiimote (MP3) it sure to be even better.
Thoughts?
wait to judge the grapchis when your playing the game. i am going to get conduit...
The Conduit is only hyped because it's currently the only sci-fi shooter on the Wii. I guarantee that if there was a good sci-fi shooter coming to the Wii, nobody would even look at the Conduit.
I think the problem with the Wii is not the graphics but A) the clear lack of multiplayer.. Seriously I had better online multiplayer by miles on the PC in 1998.. B) clear lack of meaningful third party support compared to the other competitors.. C) and lastly the devs feeling liek they are forced to use the wiimote even when they simply will not work well for the game.. Marvel Ultimate Alliance is a great example of this.. The game would have been fine if it allowed the use of the classic remote.. But nope they felt like using the wiimote and poorly implementing it to the point where its at best LUCK to pull off some of the powers due to akward motions or motions that do not read well by the sensor.
[QUOTE="darth-pyschosis"]dont say red steel, mp3 and moh and cod:waw have shown wii fps/fpa can kick butt. and disaster got 5.5 here, 8 ign uk, 34/40 famitsu, and isnt even out in america how can u judge it by one bad review amongst good 7's and 8's?foxhound_fox
You completely missed the point. Red Steel and Disaster Day of Crisis both looked promising and then turned out less than promising. The point is, don't count the chickens before they hatch. so just beacsue those didn't work out as well didn't mean it wasn't bad :roll: this what said about goldeneye as well... and look how that trun out.
you cant tell me moh2 and codwaw was a bad game... god i am so sick of the questionble comments on games. "its likey going to flop" the only way the game can flop if the majoirty of wii owners say it be a certin A AA or AAA
and tell you right now i dont see any hype of it yet.
The Conduit is only hyped because it's currently the only sci-fi shooter on the Wii. I guarantee that if there was a good sci-fi shooter coming to the Wii, nobody would even look at the Conduit.nintendofreak_2
the conduit is hype? i seen more hate than hype... :roll: god all fps, advatuners, action, music, rpg are all the simliar to everything thing else. the reason conudit is getting attetion. 1. the work for the game 2. the grapchis look promsiing from what we have gotten 3. they acutally taking there time and acutally showing us that they were surprise on the way mp3/moh2 work so well
That's not saying it's bad but it wont bring anything new to the table
Add in the fact that the developer has already ripped off Wii owners before and it doesn't really look promising
generic every ps3 360 fan boy are still going ape sh*t over GTA IV and its the exact same game as the other 10 GTA's Has a critically and commercially successful game generic? This GTA4 bashing is getting hilariously pathetic.
