New teaser from ex-Infinity Ward's creators; Respawn's first EA title

DSOGaming writes: "Remember Jason West and Vince Zampella? What was that? You don’t remember them? Oh come on, sure you do. These guys were the bosses of Infinity Ward and we bet that you still remember what happened between them and Activision. In case you don’t, let us tell you that they had an argument – actually a big argument – that was followed by a lawsuit. Then, these two fellas left the company (alongside with some other employees) and formed Respawn, a company that was under EA’s roof. Up intill now, we have not heard anything new about their first game but as the year is approaching to its end, the company felt the need to release a small teaser from their first project."

Is a teaser really just a blurred image now a days? Heh, regardless of such I hope those two reinvent the FPS genre like they originally did with COD:4. Should be interesting.

[QuodEratDemonstrandm]

It's actually a picture of an unconfirmed Respawn sighting. Activision is calling it's a hoax, or swamp gas, or a piece of driftwood, or a guy in a gorilla suit.

[deadpoole]

Now I know these developers are dyin for attention from gamers by using this method but Im gonna let u in the secret.

PICTURE ISN'T BLUR ENOUGH, WE CAN STILL MAKE OUT WHATS THERE. /S

I swear to God ... of all the methods developers use for teasers and whatnot ... this is the worst. This is potentially gonna do more damage than any good.

Facepalm.

[RememberThe357]

damn deadpoole your taking this a little hard. It's just a blurry picture, but it's got all of us talking doesn't it. I can't wait to see what these guys do, hopefully it isn't the garbage that was their last game.

[NukaCola]

Looks like a soldier with a rifle looking over his shoulder into the distance. Seems like it's going to be another shooter.

[newmonday]

i'm calling it, it looks like an Alien environment, their next game is a space shooter, maybe trying to be COD and Halo in the same time.

[malol]

i used some deblurr filters and it looks like 3 guys (including you) in first person view

going out of what it seems a jungle and going into an open space

with a mushroom cloud (nuke) in the distance (a bit to the right)

and the 2 lights on the upper left hand seems like some sort of an aircraft

and that's what i see

[zeeshan]

The best teaser I have recently seen has to be the of the THE LAST OF US. They teased us just right, dropping hints and what not. Had the whole gamer community going crazy and loving the teaser. Really, ND pulled off a great teaser and something that at least I will remember for a long time and will compare other teasers with it. It's kinda become a benchmark of high quality video game teasers.

[ATi_Elite]

WTF!
This is not news....only a blurred image of WHATEVER!

Respawn most likely will not release a game until Next Gen!!

[NiKK_419]

Didn't they show this already? Like, awhile ago?

[john2]

Nope. In June they'd released a different, blurry image. This is a brand new one

[TheIneffableBob]

Can't wait for the next blurry image!

[thePatriot]

next teaser is a silent sound effect from a game. Could be a gun shot, could be glass breaking.

[showtimefolks]

i like respawn but i hope they understand this 100% that people have extremely high hopes for their new game

[FACTUAL evidence]

looks like a spaced themed game, like halo, or killzone.

[dark-hollow]

maybe it is a next gen game and they arent allowed to showcase the graphics?

[xAlmostPro]

To be honest i hope these guys re-invent COD.

A fast paced reaction shooter, without all the bullshit infinityward have put into mw2/3. Treyarch did a good job of removing the crap but failed from a technical stand point.

I want cod2/cod4 type back.. none of this super friendly to new players, the game literally consists of people sitting in corners now either because new guys quickly realise they do that and get killstreaks fast or guys who masturbate over kill death ratio and are to scared to move incase it goes down by 0.1.

The fun has been drained.

[Kran]

Yes because they so did a good job with MW2 ¬¬

[Riggans42]

It's amazing how much hype a blurred image gets.

[Bobby Kotex]

Seriously what the hell is that? I wish people wouldn't waste my time.

[DaveMan]

I'm guessing 2013/2014 release date?

[Majin-vegeta]

Correction 2015.
http://n4g.com/news/809119/...

OT:It does look like two guys are squaring off.

[DaveMan]

That was just a "wild guess" by one of there composers.

[killa91606]

I saw this like a month ago, I thought everybody knew about this...

[camel_toad]

You may have seen it a month ago but I've been playing it for 2 years now. It's really difficult too with it being so blurry.

[AKA]

lol

[theonlylolking]

How is the gameplay?

[-Alpha]

Wow, I see a dinosaur, Master Chief, a mushroom cloud, a mountain, an alien, a forest, cliffsides

-_- Anyone else see any of that?

[Ryudo]

Lay off the pot....

[FanboyPunisher]

FU Ryudo

[pc_masterrace]

that's it? because I'm seeing a lot more than that, you should try acid next time.

[KillNr3load14]

I saw Master Chief too. Your not alone

[RememberThe357]

Wasn't I just reading comments about oil painting in an other thread? lol

At least EA is being consistent in their vagueness.

It looks like a piece of sci-fi concept art blurred out. The white is clouds, the dark are buildings, brown is the ground, and the dark blue is the sky.

[RioKing]

I honestly see a mushroom cloud :/

[Kyosuke_Sanada]

I would be happy if they are at the helm of a new BLACK....

[john2]

Oh boy, if it's anything like BLACK then we are in for a treat. Can't believe how a PS2 title had such destructible environments and most modern-day shooters can't even come close to it

[MrBeatdown]

The resolution is terrible. Just goes to show how badly we need the next generation of consoles.

[aGameDeveloper]

This is running on a next-gen console. Unfortunately, they decided to use 256 tap AA to show off the power, which is how you get such a blurry mess.

[jjb1981]

I sure hope its black 2, what an awesome game, the only FPS game that I played through 3 times...

[CHARLIEBROWNE]

If they can't even tease a game right, how the f.. i give up...

[Parasyte]

Last I read on their site, they are making a sci-fi FPS.

[bebojet]

Another blurry image... How lame.

[Hufandpuf]

A game about bad eye-sight?

[Oldman100]

They should lay off the 9001x Quincunx AA. I'd much rather have jaggies.

[SuperBeast811]

That hurts my eyes :(

[scrambles]

i doubt they'll reinvent the fps. you gotta wait for Valve. Valve turns everything they touch into gold.

[vickers500]

I think bwazy was referring more to the competitive multiplayer aspect of first person shooters.

[scrambles]

eh im sure if they got out of their counter strike shell they could make something grande

[Eiffel]

Don't know about that, I know a lot of die-hard Valve fans who wish Left 4 Dead 2 never happened. Personalty for me, the release was just too early, and the original was far better at keeping me jumpy, and paranoid. Left 4 Dead 2 was okay, but wasn't Valve's best work.

[schlanz]

Super small teaser. So small I don't see how anyone could care.

[Burning_Finger]

In Game Graphics. lol

more recycled ****

[tenacious_b]

Using levels in photoshop i was able to see the image better. There's no gun in the pic. Theres 2 guys on the rich side possibly holding guns as you walk behind them "possibly a cutscene". Theres green in the picture like hanging moss on the building to make me believe it is a post apocalyptic setting, with deteriorating buildings. The middle of the pic either appears to be A. A large alien in the background or B. A Mushroom cloud. Heere is the link to the image after I adjusted it.

http://tinypic.com/r/2bs6ja...

[Hufandpuf]

Nice! It seems to be on an alien world set in the future.

[tenacious_b]

*right side* damn autocorrect

[tenacious_b]

Theres definitely a beach setting here. What appears to be buildings on the left and right could "possibly" be ships.

[Sanhlami]

GREATEST GAME EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gamer-Z]

I wonder what kind of engine they are using for this game? Maybe EA let them use the Frostbite 2 engine, its the only engine i know that EA has that can support 60fps besides id Tech (the COD engine).

[Chupa-Chupa]

I want this game so bad!!

[HurstDarkStar]

I want this image so bad it's got me so hype!!(jizzes)

[TheDeerHunter]

If this is sci-fi fps, and EA is publishing.

http://images.wikia.com/sta...

That is definitely in there, EA now own Respawn ,EA used to own pandemic till it closed down , pandemic used to make Star Wars battlefront, battlefront was a sci-fi fps. BOOM

[DaveMan]

Sorry to burst your bubble, but it's a new ip (meaning it's a whole new property that isn't a spinoff, prequel or sequel.)

[TheDeerHunter]

The thing on the left also looks like a walker of some sort from star wars, if you look closely you can make out its legs

[blaze22-qwerty]

I think The game will be a nex-gen release

[memots]

How the hell is this Hottest new on n4g ?? It's a blurry image. These guys are king of marketing i guess.

[T3MPL3TON]

I just don't care. These little "teaser" images haven't peaked my interest they've just made me want the game to go away.. and them with it.

[Alos88]

Something tell me it' a sci fi title, that pair of lights in the air doesn't look like a conventional plane to me.

[NeloAnjelo]

Believe it or not i see a dog's face... ?!!! Or some kinda animal. If you focus on the clearer or "whiter" parts.

I don't know. I sound like a crazy person.

[MizTv]

bring it on !!!! i want this game!!!!!

[CultOfPersonality]

i could see the picture ublurred before i took an arrow to the.....(Sighs) knee
