4.35 when they talk about this...just letting you guys know

Oh shit did you guys see that, one of the interviewers basically caught him off guard. Really nervous, unsure response

"Brooklyn is not going to be DLC"

Felt like the other interview saved him a bit by stepping in and expanding on the question to give him more time to think. However I don't like the fact it cut out and transitioned...what they hiding?

Kind of like how the interviewer just went right in there with the concerns...usually people lick ass. I mean the director came off like an ass he got a little defensive with each question. Like he said...

"Another concern? Man you got to relax it's just a video game"

Yeah a one we are bloody paying for and one which you are cutting shit for a season pass

Anyway what bullshit. "We don't want to ruin the economy"...this was shown off last year so it was being done alongside the rest of the game meaning it all would have been balanced out together.

I hate when they think we are all idiots.

DarkOcelet3058d ago

I dont understand why is he on the offensive like that.

Asking question doesn't mean we are concerned, we want to know more about the game.

Seriously, that was not professional from him at all. He wouldn't act like that if it was IGN/Gamespot or any pro website interviewing them.

xPhearR3dx3057d ago

To be fair, he actually did state he was concerned. Twice in fact. "One of my concerns is X". Maybe if the interviewer changed his word choice, the dev wouldn't have reacted so defensively.

I've been to these events and interviewed multiple devs myself. Sometimes they just beat around the bush, not because their hiding something, but more so because their boss won't let them speak about certain aspects of the game. Frustrating, but understandable.

DarkOcelet3057d ago

@xPhearR3dx

Then he could have simply said, ' I cant reveal such information just yet but dont worry about it'

But saying "Another concern? Man you got to relax it's just a video game"

Its just like Foxtrot said, we pay for this game and we want to know what is in the game we are paying you money for and why were the the things represented in the E3 trailer are now missing from the game.

Brooklyn was obviously cut from the game and will obviously be used as dlc.

Also the way he was talking to TBH was weird and most questions was like dont be concerned this and that but when Matt ask the questions, he is like ' that is a good question'

cmgs3057d ago

To be fair interviewer came out sounding like an ass, trying to patronize the developer.

SnotyTheRocket3057d ago

Dude, did you watch the same video I did? And one we're paying for? Doubt you'll buy it. I'm not going to pretend I know anything about game development, but saying it (trading) was shown off in a demo from more than a year ago and assuming it would be balanced is kind of foolish. Trading will most likely be added, but not at launch.

crazychris41243058d ago

MWN always asking the questions most are too scared to ask

wsoutlaw873057d ago

He shared many of the concerns i had as well. Then gun play isn't good and the ai was awful. You could just wait behind cover for one enemy to walk over at a time. I didn't really like the answers given for end game and story length.

Kyosuke_Sanada3057d ago

It's about time game journalists start asking developers hard questions and legit concerns instead of slow balling the interview so basically nothing answered.

Star Wars Outlawa has some real potential. I loved the Fallen Order games but the abundant timed jumps at times took me out of the narrative as they could be come frustrating. The branching options and status with factions looks great.

-Foxtrot10d ago

Prince of Persia 2026…REALLY? And that’s all they had for us…a candle.

Jesus. Imagine if they didn’t give it to a shitty support studio and tried to sell us a sloppy remake years ago

Now we have (no hate on quality here) two PoP games no one asked for. We could have been anticipating a Warrior Within remake by now.

Elda10d ago

LOL!! They should have even announced it. They should have just waited a year from now to announce it with some gameplay. Lame.

Terry_B10d ago

Sorry for everyone who watched this ;)

Elda10d ago

No surprises just updates on existing games & games that have already been announced. A lame show.

-Foxtrot10d ago

The "could have been an email" type of show.

We can hope. Especially if the rumors of Cillian Murphy and Alaska are true.

RaidenBlack21d ago

That'd be too good if true.
But Henderson also leaked that next Far Cry setting was targeting some asian island.

jznrpg20d ago (Edited 20d ago )

With their shitty practices I really don’t care what Ubisoft announces until they reverse their course

Relientk7721d ago

Assassin's Creed Hexe is what I wanna hear about most. Yes I wanna play as a witch with magic during the 16 century witch trials in Germany (as per rumors). Sign me up

Huey_My_D_Long21d ago

Yeah, Hex sounds amazing to me as well, and I've been playing since AC 1. I'm real curious how are they gonna fit the magic into the game, maybe in similar way the dlc introduced gods and god abilities. but I love that I've heard its gonna have a horror vibe.

Garethvk21d ago

Hopefully it is full of good stuff.

Garethvk21d ago

I would love The Division 3.

RaidenBlack21d ago

The studio just completed Avatar and busy with Outlaws and also got their F2P Heartland cancelled ... IMO, Division 3 will surely come but it'll take more time.
I'd be most thrilled if Ubisoft greenlits a sequel or at least a remake of the studio's first game i.e World in Conflict

anast21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

I would get hyped about Hexe. If the rumors are true, UBI might get a gold edition purchase out of me.

Demetrius21d ago

Hopefully gameplay of ac shadows or star wars outlaws, if they finally announce the new far cry I'm definitely getting that, far cry still fun af and gorgeous games, yeah ubisoft has their faults but atleast they're not copying souls like games their titles still have identity

neutralgamer199221d ago

We will definitely see gameplay for star wars and AC. Farcry let's see

OtterX21d ago (Edited 21d ago )

I'm going to be an outlier amongst the rest of these comments.... give us something NEW! I'm pretty burnt out on Ubisoft franchises, unless you're giving us a new Rayman game!

*Edit - imagine what they could do with a Rayman 3D game in this day and age. I say now is the time to revisit the series.

RaidenBlack21d ago

Would love a AAA PoP too or a back to roots Ghost Recon (none of the open world stuff)

MeatyUrologist21d ago

Hell yes! Ghost recon in the style of the originals with real consequences, permanent and all!

jznrpg20d ago

I love Rayman, played it a ton with my kids years ago. But Ubisoft puts dumb crap in their games. MTs , paid tiers , always online requirement for single player games and as they stand now I could see them doing that to Rayman

OtterX20d ago

Yea unfortunately, you're right. :'(

Garethvk21d ago

Beyond Good and Evil 2: It is coming really; we promise.

OtterX21d ago

Their microtransaction monetization scheme on it will lie somewhere between good and evil!

Haha JK.... it'll be completely evil. 🙃
