is that Rick Hunter's voice in the psychiatric interview?
-Kirk
Rick disappeared, the new guy is Cory Cruise! He's awesome! He's got that ruggid tough guy Cowboy voice!
First off let me start by saying im a huge fan of your games!
also ill express my honest opinion as a Postal hardcore fan, and as a gamer...
in my opinion if you guys want to have a fast paced game the camera has to e pushed further back so that the character model does no occupy the entire screen...
The fat moms look the same apart from the change of hair that was ok in postal 2 but by today standards its not get more models or give them different body shapes so they feel unique...
The cover system looks confusing...the cover system looks automatic like kane and lynch...theres no button to get in\out of it and that will lead to people getting stuck to the wall accidentally...
i hope you guys at Running With Scissors read this....i loved postal 1 (on my old 133mhz) and postal 2 for me was the most underappreciated game that ever existed...i liked the good\bad options and the fact that the goal is not only to get crazy(or piss on dads grave lol)...thats a huge step in the right direction
but in my opinion for that kind of pacing the camera should be pushed back like the one on Oni from bungie...the cover system should have a dedicated botton like gears of war (also run button) or mafia II...
keep he awesome work !
double post
maiers -
I believe the gameplay video was cropped. You can tell in one scene he switches to his pistol. If you look at the top left-hand corner, it shows his weapons but you can't see all of them because the video is cropped. If you look at screenshots you can tell it isn't so zoomed in as it looks in the video.
About the character models: yeah, they are similar. Watch the beginning again, though. The regular citizens look fairly diverse to me, so even if the common enemies in PIII look a little similar to each other, at least the normal citizens of Catharsis are more diverse, so that's good enough for me.
A lot of people were talking the game down - especially its graphics - on the comments of the videos. I guess they're implying the Source engine has anywhere near modern-day graphics in the first place :P forget graphics, just give me a gun and some pedestrians!
Now for my opinion: My first reaction to the new voice actor was "....WAT. This is gay." After watching the gameplay trailer, I must say it's nice. He still has a low voice, still sounds sarcastic and cynical. It may not be the same guy, but props for trying to sound similar to the old one. I am not disappointed about this.
Closing point: this is pre-beta. It will get better than this anyway. Many of the people talking this game down did not play the other Postal games. Those of us who did will love this game, I have no doubt of that.
Also, wtf is Cologne? The city in Germany? I wanna play the demo damnit! :(
He's not like a brokeback cowboy, he's more of a Curly Washburn/City Slickers cowboy right?
I know its bad form... but I wants me my Rick(ey Bobby).
I do not understand why people are whining about the graphics: they are really good .... They only need to be polished a bit, so that the movement is more natural look ... otherwise I think I am attached to the old model of Dude I do not really like the new one, and the voices even less! Where the fuck is Rick Hunter?! anyway, excluding that the whole game look... pure genious! can't wait to play it!
Yes. I mean they have a lot of time left to work on this game. It isn't like the final product will look like this.
I like the new model because he looks more badass. He looked like a lanky guy before. I'm grateful they didn't change his outfit, just kind of his build, you know what I mean?
As I said before, I like the new voice actor. It would be the best if they got Rick Hunter back, though.
Or maybe...maybe there's a chance Rick Hunter will still be doing the voice, and this is just a placeholder because they haven't recorded the Dude's voice yet? Never know.
wtf is this crappy voice, I want the Rick Hunter!
