NowGamer: The Gearbox president has spoken up about the infamous Aliens: Colonial Marines demo at E3.
“Future experiences [are] already under development at Gearbox," says Randy Pitchford
I'm actually surprised by this, I feel like it came and went very quickly without too much interest
but good to see!
A sequel will need a lot of work. They didn't lean nearly enough into the fantasy elements, which left the combat feeling like Borderlands rather than a new franchise. The end game is trash, there's no new game plus, no proper DLC/expansions, etc. The drop rates for loot were god awful.
It had a lot of great ideas but in terms of gameplay it felt way too safe, like Gearbox was too scared to stray too far from Borderlands.
Pitchford mentions that they're currently working on a Brothers in Arms game, but also suggests that the game is in early development.
It's been way too long. They cancelled BiA: Furious 4 to make Battleborn and look how that turned out. Though I do hope this new entry is more like the proper BiA games, rather than F4 which was basically Borderlands meets Inglorious Basterds.
FINALLY!
Please let it be true to the series. Don't wreck it like Rainbow 6. Can we get at least one tactical single player shooter with squad commands?
Too many games aren't given a second shot. We at VGU choose which games we would love to see receive a sequel.
The Saboteur - criminally underrated and a fantastic mechanic of bringing colour back to Nazi-occupied Paris.
The article lists Bulletstorm, Sleeping Dogs, and Aliens: Colonial Marines.
He is still being dishonest.
Sure the final product can turn out different (worse in this case).
The problem is pretending afterwards that it's still the same as the first showing.THAT'S the issue.
This guy has close to ZERO credibility... even with Bordelands 1 and 2 on his curriculum. DKF and A:CM represents great franchises that himself stated being a fan and he let this go to sale.
Too much mud on his name right now.
The alternative is to never lie about the actual look of the game. no more bullshots no more Pre-rendered or CGI trailers and pretending they're taken from actual gameplay. cause sooner or later thousands of gamers would swarm towards their favourite forum and denounce the scam
They fucked up
Defiant to the end, isn't he?
I've never seen a grown man so opposed to eating a little **** for his mistakes.
He lied, he's still lying, he willingly and knowingly robbed and deceived consumers and he doesn't even bat an eye. Shows you who this guy really is.
What an ass Randy Pitchford turned out to be.
