Disappointed there was no demo on stage, but since it's Crackdown I'll end up buying the game.

 

[Adam M]

Where is the gameplay ?

 

[SFenton]

Where was the destruction?

 

[funkystudent]

It looked like a current gen crackdown game. Which is nice I guess?


I guess they took out the POWER OF THE CLOUD (tm)?

 

[Xater]

So did Crackdown 3 lose all the destruction they were touting before? It was nowhere to be found in the trailer.

 

[MikeBison]

Looks...like ass?

Art style that looked old when crackdown 2 came our ad none of the destruction previously mentioned.

Also nothing like the cgi concept trailer it was announced with.

 

[StoopKid]

Power of the cloud gone?

 

[Kilau]

Underwhelming, need to show more.

Don't know. It's like here is the trailer and lets move on

 

[ResoRai]

Really really really should've given this more stage time.

 

[kuYuri]

Comes out same day as Xbox One X launch.

 

[Samanosuke Akechi]

No stage demo? Is this a sign development didn't go as planned?

 

[SocksAndShoes]

Power of the cloud gone?

The clouds are in the vapor cooling chamber now.

Didn't even look all that current gen.

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

So with that, we can officially call the "power of the cloud" total bullshit?

I mean - if that's the best they can show - it's evident at the VERY LEAST that building destruction was non-existent.

 

[chubigans]

This looks terrible! What the hell happened?? Graphics and art style are muddy and way less visually interesting than the tech demos. And no destruction.

Maybe this was just a bad trailer.

 

[DOWN]

RIP Power of the Cloud

 

[A.J.]

Where's the destruction?

 

[mysteriousmage09]

Game looks like shit. Visuals are nothing impressive and the destruction is all but gone.

 

[Maintenance]

Massive downgrade, Ubi-like.

 

[brawly]

No stage demo? Is this a sign development didn't go as planned?

The video already showed that.

 

[dugdug]

The cloud stuff is gone isn't it? Goddamnit. Biggest disappointment of the show so far.

 

[Grisby]

Destruction? No stage demo?

No sunny days?

 

[ghostwritingduck]

This was my biggest disappointment so far. No featured destruction. It reminds me of Saints Row 4, but without the customization that makes the game appealing to me.

 

[benzy]

Whoever was trying to push the power of the cloud at MS screwed up so bad.

 

[metsallica]

Embarrassing. Guess they had to salvage something...

 

[leeh]

Calm down everyone it's just single player footage...

They said SP wouldn't have cloud.

 

[Jb]

The hell happened to this game
Did they seriously give up on the main selling point of this episode?

 

[plasmawave]

Even InFAMOUS 2 on the PS3 had more destruction than this.

 

[hydruxo]

Looks very underwhelming. If you told me this was Crackdown 2 remastered I'd believe you.

 

[SocksAndShoes]

Calm down everyone it's just single player footage...

They said SP wouldn't have cloud.

It still looks pretty bad though. Nothing about that screams next gen.

 

[Carn82]

I think they never got the destruction working as envisioned, otherwise they would paraded that around.

 

[chubigans]

Calm down everyone it's just single player footage...

They said SP wouldn't have cloud.

How do you know that wasn't multiplayer?

 

[Y2Kev]

I am interested in the development story. Looks like it's only Sumo now vs. the original team. Am I wrong on that?

 

[Zeus The Dino]

No more destruction. Pathetic. There really is no reason to get the Xbox X

 

[SMG]

MS had put together a great presentation, but C3 looked really bad. The art looked like a game so early the public isn't supposed to see it.

 

[Sinfamy]

The art style looks bad.

 

[Xater]

I am interested in the development story. Looks like it's only Sumo now vs. the original team. Am I wrong on that?

Looks like it. Things must have gone sideways.

 

[BADMAN]

Yall ready for a shitty hottake?

They should have canceled this instead of scalebound.

 

[Hero_of_the_Day]

No demo is weird. Expected it to be one of the big Scorpio show off pieces. I assume it's also coming to PC?

 

[RBH]

Sumo Digital is making the game?

What happened to the original team?

 

[Aquavelvaman]

Remember that video of the building falling over? What happened to...anything at all like that?

This one:

 

[Loudninja]

I am interested in the development story. Looks like it's only Sumo now vs. the original team. Am I wrong on that?

Yeah whats up with Ruffian Games?

 

[slash3584]

This looked a lot like like Agents of Mayhem

 

[RobRSG]

Seems like the game has been Cracked Down, and now it's another game.

 

[0ptimusPayne]

I waited all this time for them to show absolutely no progress or anything new lol. They just skimmed over this shit makes no sense to me. Biggest disappointment so far 😭. Don't @ me with that fanboy BS either, been on the franchise since day 1

 

[Brizzo24]

I was looking for a reason to buy an Xbox. But this has been the most underwhelming conference. Crackdown 3 looks so bland and boring.

 

[chrisPjelly]

OOOF. That looks sooo much worse, but let's be honest... it'll probably be a better game for it. I guess the power of the cloud wasn't sustainable after all

 

[Tonky]

Someone tweet the Gamescom demo to Phil and ask WTF happened

 

[matrix-cat]

That downgrade is pretty massive. They've ditched the more realistic art style altogether, and who knows where the destructibility went. I feel like they probably restarted the game entirely since we last saw it.
