Electronic Arts has announced a number of server closures in the coming months, including Apex Mobile and the 2012 Syndicate reboot.
Syndicate's big saving grace will soon be erased for good. I'll give *some* credit to EA in keeping servers up for 10+ years.
Oh yeah, an actual cyberpunk game. I have fond memories of the old bullfrog Syndicates.
Syndicate was a fun and high quality late PS3 fps that got swallowed in the sea of fps at the time. It was short and it didn't innovate but it had good visuals and fun combat. Starbreeze i believe. Rip Torn and Rosario Dawson.
10 years since the Syndicate series was rebooted as an FPS, perhaps it's time we got another reboot as a strategy game?
was this the game with the cars on rails and you could blow up killing everyone in it? l loved this game, lol
I couldn't get past the first half hour or something. Hard to remember but I didn't play long. I don't know if there was something wrong with the PC version or not, but the bloom was so bad it hurt my eyes. I started getting a horrible headache. I could hardly see anything because there was extremely intense bloom everywhere.
EA always let their PC versions fall by the wayside. The same thing happened with Dead Space 1.
This remains one of my fave hard sci-fi FPS games from the X360 era. A compelling premise with an interesting setting and solid characters, plus outstanding special ability mechanics. Def deserves more love.
Like children with new toys, developers can excitedly overdo it with visual effects until good sense prevails - here are five examples of exactly that from across video games history
Dirt on the lens (and JJ Abrahms style overuse of lens flare) is the worst, especially in war games like Battlefield. We're not supposed to be a camera! Way to ruin the illusion of actually being the player we're controlling.
Most soldiers today wear goggles or tactical glasses so dirt on the lens isn’t that much of a stretch tbh
Vignettes, chromatic aberration, and that annoying thing where they blur the corners of the screen. Also film grain.
All those immediately get turned off when I load up my settings haha. Unless I’m going for screenshots it’s more than annoying
You are mostly stuck with whatever terrible effects on console. There are some options like motion blur that can switched off but it's not common
Depth of field is annoying. Along with most camera or lens effects.
But DoF will be cool in the future when they can track what you are looking at and apply DoF accordingly.
The Syndicate reboot had the absolute worst bloom I've ever seen. It literally hurt my eyes and gave me a headache just from playing. I could never finish it.
Absolutely. Beyond the distraction and obstruction, it looked unpleasant a lot of the time.
wow that looked really boring just walking around in circles with no one to shoot and nothing to do!!
will wait for better video of someone who know how to play!!
Heh, did anyone else notice light/blue teal seems to be the new "in color"? I like it!
love to graphics! cant wait to hear more about the game...
