Crytek-authorised Timesplitters Rewind in development for PC

[QUOTE="crippledmachine"]

[QUOTE="freedomfreak"] oh mah oh mah oh mah lawdclyde46

Hmm, right. Let me make this simpler to understand.

At the time when I was playing TimeSplitters on PS2, I was a console gamer. Got it? Yep. I haven't had any interest in PC gaming back then.

Now, I play on PC and I have no interest in playing consolised games such as Call of Duty. Since the new TimeSplitters is a PC exclusive, I'm expecting a hell lot of improvements and wider options. Being a PC exclusive means a lot.

Jeez. Some people in here. -.-

except it isn't

"Although the development team received permission to use the original TimeSplitters assets theyll be recreating everything from the ground up using the original models for reference. That means all the best characters, maps and weapons will be faithfully realised in CryEngine 3!"

[QUOTE="MrYaotubo"][QUOTE="archvile_78"]

True, true i forgot about this. But you know there's this "je ne sais quoi" that you can only get with splitscreen.

Pretty much this for me, its what made the serie great but yeah i still hope for this project to live on so people can actually experience how great the serie is.

archvile_78

well with PC's you can do LAN parties. Like splitscreen without the weird aspect ratios and screen cheating. Depending on how well optimized it is a decent laptop would do the job and its pretty easy to play with friends locally in that case.

You mean screen watching and slowed framerates? "Je ne sais quoi" is usually considered a good thing.DragonfireXZ95

Disagreed. Playing online L4D2 on the 360 in split screen mode is a chore. The frames are so bad that you can barely aim half the time.

Yeah but thats left 4 dead. TS is far from "slowed framerate", you'd know if you played.

[QUOTE="freedomfreak"] It might be he was having too much fun to care about that stuff, like every single human being that plays splitscreen. Not to mention TS ran smooth as butter in splitscreen.archvile_78

Maybe i should've been more specific. I know too well what you mean with L4D2.

Lol yeah, i know you're a PC player but you should try TS one way or another, or you could wait for Rewind and try it then.

Online l4d2 on 360 sounds terrible in general

Why put it on PC? This series was never meant for 'competetive' gaming, just playing on the couch with a few buddies and bots. :(Mr_Cumberdale

So you think by making the game on PC it automaticly means it has to be a  competetive game and can't just be played for  fun?!?!?!?!?

Nonsense.

Is this supposed to have a single player component?

Thats a good question, i suppose you'll be able to play with bots only if you wish.

I don't want to play with bots.

I want to play a campaign, and travel through time, and throw bricks through windows, and such.

Oh that, well if you've read the interview they mentionned inclusion of challenge mode but dont expect an actual campaign just yet.

That darn brick challenge in Chinese in TSFP. Those uppermost windows where you gotta ricochet a brick on the ceiling to break them properly. :lol:

Still not as bad as sniping bottle with a pistol in Disco.

I remember playing a Timesplitters game on PS2. I thaught it was pretty weak to be honest and went back to playing Deus Ex and Thief 2, dont think I ever played the game again.

You must've played the original way back in 2000, its the weakest of the serie but still had frantic multiplayer like the 2 sequels.

What annoyed me though is bots back then didn't start with a weapon so you could destroy them before they reached one.

If I had a time machine I'd just get a sack of bricks, and go to ancient places, and turn them into ancient ruins.

Shame, hope it makes it too XBL and PSN.

A PC only release really sucks.

It's good news actually. Making games as PC exclusive is always welcome.

Don't be upset that your PC isn't capable enough for this game. Don't pour nonsense from your emotions into this.

I played the franchise on PS2, I loved it, yes, but making it a PC exclusive means a lot. It will add good things to the game such as more options, customisations and gameplay enhancements - FOV and more PC-specific settings. Having more controls leads to better gameplay.

If you are still confused by my logic, take a look at Crysis for example. Compare Crysis 2 and 3 with the original Crysis and Warhead. There you go.

I can remember you saying that you used to be PC gamer, right? I'm sorry but judging from your comments here, I think you're lying. You haven't got a clue what you're talking about.
