2016.Games look really cool, I was going to include it in my Amazon preorder but it come up with a 2017 release day. What is the release date for this game?
Game looks good. Premise is interesting.
The big thing is how repetitive hunting the dinos will feel.
Something to keep in mind: the big dino she was fighting had already been weakened by fighting with another tribe. You can see some spears sticking in it when it first appears. They apparently talked about this in the closed door presentation to the media.I have one real fear about this game. I hope they don't ignore the fact that the dinos are supposed to be at the top of the food chain.
It looked terrible how the girl was able to hunt gigantic robo dinos like it was a walk in the park. It should mimic real human history and we should only be able to tackle the bigger ones if we have traps, nets and a numbers advantage.
She looked like she was no1 on the foodchain there.
Did they mention this?
I mean I always assumed.

I mean, it looked pretty hard taking down a Dino. Also like the animation was unique as was the behavior of the Dino's. I guess im making a lot of assumptions. You are right, I hope combat isn't repetitive.
Sounds good thanks.They mentioned it on one of the streams, maybe Gamespot, that there would be combat against rival factions.
http://www.technobuffalo.com/2015/06/18/horizon-zero-dawn-eyes-on-preview-post-post-apocalyptic/Thunderjaw is 80 feet long, 33 feet wide, and sports 271 animations as well as 550,000 polygons. This beast probably isnt daunting just to Aloy, but to its designers as well. Thunderjaw is also used to show off the games emphasis on what Norris called tactical and strategic action combat.
Im sure they made it weak for demo purpose but imagine the length itd take to take it downThe combat actually sounds really great. For those who didn't know, Thundermaul, the robo t-rex in the demo, had over 90 armor parts, each with their own Hit Points. If you manage to broke the outer armor and show the less protected part within, you deal three times the damage in that spot. Explosive arrow are also rare, so don't expect to spam explosive arrow at huge robodino. Instead you had to play smart. Focus your attack to 1 part to peel off the armor and then use the explosive arrow for massive damage.
Thundermaul also supposedly have like 15 different attacks.
That's not absolutely clear, no.
and that has only half of his HP cause of a previous fight with another tribe
Was multiplayer ever mentioned?
This seems like the type of game you'd want to play with friend.

Uh, I hate to break it to you, but there was no point in human history where we hunted dinos.
<_____>
Well there's no written history regarding if humans ever hunted dinosaurs nor how if they did. I mean...Dinosaurs in the end are animals. People can hunt bears, rhinos, elephants which maybe aren't as big as a Trex, but they're just as deadly.
Uh, I hate to break it to you, but there was no point in human history where we hunted dinos.
I am guessing Summer 2016 they been working on this for a long time now.So Holiday 2016, or 2016 in general?
I hope it is Summer 2016 >.>
Impossible, but who knows.
Yeah, I know...
We did hunt other big game, and we did that using teamwork and tools, not how she did it in the video.
Even if the Dinos where injured before the fight it looks dumb.
I really like the concept, I hope they nail the world building and doesn't become dumb.
Now now. I'll hear no shit-talking of the Staff of Ezrezikikillio. Best staff of the game, perfectly balanced!As long as they create weapons in organic and believable ways, rather than "You combined 4x Branch and 8x Green Gel to craft Decadent Staff of Ezrezikikillio!"
lolUh, I hate to break it to you, but there was no point in human history where we hunted dinos.
Yeah. This.She's not using wooden arrows and rocks.
I hope it'll sell well, but I am actually skeptical.

This seems to be the kind of game where you see the super-epic concept art and fan dreaming and go "yeah, yeah, but what is it actually like?"
...But then it's EXACTLY like that.
The best part of the demo was the very animated-2d flash lines of the search bots.
This looked super stylish.
I was a bit concerned when we got 'white people in native dress' opening, to be honest. I'm sure that'll turn into a thing.

Summer 2016 is the best release day for new IP. If they dont want to send it to die, avoid Holiday
That's not absolutely clear, no.
Couldn't have said it better, Game of the show for me.This seems to be the kind of game where you see the super-epic concept art and fan dreaming and go "yeah, yeah, but what is it actually like?"

It is 1,000 years into the future when civilizations fell. White people suddenly stop pro-creating?
If Uncharted 4 truly is a February or March title, I wouldn't be surprised to see this being released on May or June. It does make me wonder if that means Gran Turismo 7 and The Last Guardian will be the only ones gearing up for Fall 2016 or that also mean God of War will be leaving its comfortable Spring release window for a Fall release.
Then again looking at this Fall, Sony appears to have no problem having nothing from their first party studios for a holiday season now that they are dominating. Sure we have a lot of smaller games from their 2nd party partners and many PS4/PC titles, but you know what I mean.
I do hope Horizon comes out before next E3 though. I would be absolutely ecstatic.
Best wishes.
they remind me of the Wildlings in Game of ThronesI was a bit concerned when we got 'white people in native dress' opening, to be honest. I'm sure that'll turn into a thing.
There are other PS4 exclusives for this fall that just weren't hyped at E3, like Dragon Quest Heroes and Tales of Vesperia.Then again looking at this Fall, Sony appears to have no problem having nothing from their first party studios for a holiday season now that they are dominating.

I wonder if you start as the demo, like a cave-girl, and by the end of it you can be with a high tech set of armours that you made by gathering materials and killing enemies. It would be interesting!
Yeah so that's not what I'm saying, and I'm not looking for a boring fight about it - I'm saying it's -obviously- going to be an issue, and it stood out to me as something that could be easily resolved if we know more about the game. If you have a game come out in 2016 where white people wear feathered headdress - and there's no other races around in the promo material, the way social media is these days, we all know how it's going to play out.
Please don't take this as some kind of investment in the fictional qualities of the game because I'm just talking about the qualities of social media and culture in which the game is coming out. We barely know anything about the game which is precisely when this stuff goes down and stupid statements are made.
