Niceee

There's only been this awful shakey-cam version from one of the Blizzcons up until now. Sweet intro.

Can somebody remind me why that game never came out?

People didn't want Blizzard ruining the Stealth genre the way they did RTSes and MMOs?

Classic · « **Reply #2006 on:** February 06, 2010, 11:57:38 AM »

But weren't stealth games already ruined by that point?

Mothra · « **Reply #2007 on:** February 06, 2010, 12:14:28 PM »

I played a build of this thing two years back and uh

Maybe it was just really half-done, but the stealth mechanic barely worked, all the weapons were underpowered and unsatisfying, and you basically just huddled through metal corridors around marine patrols through each painfully-linear level.

I like the SC universe and all but I cannot really see this thing having been very good unless they really fundementally changed direction.

Which build did you play? From what I understand, there were at least a couple.

Mothra · « **Reply #2009 on:** February 06, 2010, 01:04:55 PM »

Two years back at Comic-Con... I was in a hanger bay, trying to elude marines, which opened up into a long string of hallways where you were supposed to Splinter Cell your way out.

edit: It played like this, only in a hanger bay. I never really understood the appeal of stealth games, though, to be fair.

It is, in a manner of speaking, conquering literally impossible odds.

Wait, aren't you just negating the first thing with the second?

Wait what.. when did this get announced?

FINALLY!

It's probably going to suck like the last matrix movie, but at least they're going to try to finish it!

Because Blizzard feeds and gains power off of my tears. And so does Kabbage, apparently.

It doesn't matter. I'm finally getting Starcraft 2.

Ghost never came out because every version of it was a piece of shit in actual fact. It is the modern WarCraft: Adventures. It's not like they're hiding an amazing stealth action game on a shelf. They gave it every chance to be good, including changing developers completely, but the thing was just destined to fail.

I still dream of sniping Hydralisks and hiding not in shadow, but away from detector units while using my stealth behind enemy lines, but alas it was not to be.
