Looking back all the destructible stuff was always stated as coming to the MP part of the game only. Shouldn't really be a surprise.


Co-op isn't multiplayer, then?

Don't be stupid.

He's being pedantic though, co-op mp is different to adversarial mp, to presume other wise is being stupid.

Co-op multiplayer is "MP", though.

To think they'd spend so much time and effort on something that's going to be played maybe once or twice by people before they resume their normal MOBA routines.

Why does it look like a 360 game?

More Campaign Gameplay -



twitter.com/FameEnt2k/status/874391489245327362



Info from Sumo Digital Dev on GAF -

Just going to clear up some questions, though again understand there are many, many things I can't talk about as unless it's out there in public, I will get a pretty severe telling off :)

All of the above are elements that have been confirmed though, it's worth watching Clint's interview here if you haven't seen it already:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pJvD7YawwI

Is there is a full day night/cycle - Yes, the game is not set in perpetual darkness! What you saw in the E3 Stage Presentation was footage captured from the E3 show floor demo. This starts at sunset, but at it's a time limited demo of ten minutes with accelerated levelling (much like the original Crackdown demo) most of the footage got captured as it transitions to night time and you don't quite get to sunrise in 10 minutes!

Multiplayer/Destruction - Campaign was designed to be played offline in single player, but can also be played online in 4 player Co-Op. Both don't feature the large scale world destruction as we wanted to make it accessible to as many people as possible. The competitive multiplayer will feature large scale destruction, MS will show it I'm sure when they're ready, but E3 is all about the Campaign side of the game. It is also a conscious gameplay choice for Campaign, razing the city to the ground doesn't feel like the kind of thing the good guys should do.

Who is working on the game - We (Sumo) have been involved with the game from the start and we're principally handling the Campaign side of the game. It's a group effort though with Reagent and Cloudgine who are principally handling the competitive multiplayer. Some elements are shared, some are unique based on the gameplay needs.

Why didn't you show more in the E3 Presentation - We were one of the 52 games on show, plus we're on the show-floor and we've got many press presentations booked over E3. I suspect they felt we could let the game talk more by itself! Plus don't forget that Crackdown is a very freeform game, it's hard to get that across as we're very definitely trying to avoid it being a scripted experience. Any given situation can be approached in a number of ways depending on the skills you've chosen to focus on.

Does the announcer (Voice of the Agency) return - Absolutely. Some things are Crackdown DNA, this is one of then.

Length of game/number of maps - This one I have to leave out specifics till MS talk more about the game, but we're expecting it to be comparable to previous Crackdown games.

Like I say, I know there are multiple interviews happening so more should be revealed over the next few days and I'll be surprised if there isn't any show floor footage as folks get into the booth.

I also appreciate folks remembering All-Stars Transformed which was my previous major gig before this one :)

Probably because it's not aiming for hyper-realism. Crackdown has always had that cartoony cel-shaded type look and it's difficult to really make that look much better. As long as it plays well, packs the city full of interesting things and is a fun sandbox to explore, I couldn't give a gooseberry fool what it looks like.

I just don't think the look of the game has aged particularly well and when they've been working on it for over 6 years now I just expected more. The destructible environments aren't even in the single player.

I just don't understand what is holding them back on a technical level.

Hope they avoid the awful zombie gimmick this time around. Weird that they say that the E3 showcase is to show off the campaign, but it didn't really do a good job of showing anything off.

Surely they could have put a bit of a trailer together to show the new city and who the badguys are, rather than just your typical Crackdown leaping around gameplay (which has kind of been copied and improved by Saint's Row 4, so hopefully they've got some new tricks up their sleeves too....)

Logically think about it, The destructible levels couldn't be in campaign as you could raise city to the ground rendering orb hunting pointless. It was never in the campaign from the start.

Showed footage on Xbox daily, no zombies, only thing is boss's will hunt you if you pish them off enough. Performance aside I'm looking forward to it, seems a little choppy.

That's a relief, then :P

Yeah, I'm still looking forward to it because Crackdown's always been quite fun and it's 4-player co-op which is always a bonus. Just wish it hadn't been so long to wait!

Being more of the same, which looks to be the case, is no bad thing for Crackdown as it's always been pretty good fun. However, going on what has been shown so far technically it hasn't really moved on. Again though, not a huge deal as long as it plays well I guess. Might take a punt on PC when the price drops.
