I'm hyped about it. :D
edit:
It's shit!

I can still play the original using DosBox, don't see the point in recreating it.

Not all of us are from an east bloc country; some of us can afford pc's that can run high def games no problem!

blyat

I still waiting for the remake of the PC game, which will surpass the original.

Settlers 2: The next Generation

sequel <> remake

knowing what you're talking about <> pretending to know what you're talking about

The original was an amazing (and unfortunately, hugely underrated) game. Looking forward to the remake, although i'm not the biggest fan of flashy graphics and all this modern eyecandy.

Looks like it could be fun in multi.

Well that's good, cause this looks like it was released a year after quake3.

No it doesn't.

Wow, can't wait :D

original was wicked, this looks badass. Apogee always made some crazy wares back then, wish I could play them all again... Raptor, BioMenace, Jazz jackrabbit :D

Aaaah that Apogee logo :))
Good childhood times :>

Jazz the Jackrabbit!!!!

And not to mention Spas! :D

I logged in just to + your selection of games!

Brings back so many great memories

Apparently the new Rise of the Triad is extremely gory and visceral.

You can shoot limbs off of enemies and blow them apart.

Sounds fun!

you could do that in SOF 13 years ago :)

Gah! Have to sign in to view that vid.

Loved the original. Gonna keep a watch on this one!

Haha, awesome :) According to the feature list everything is included (dog mode, drunken missiles...). I would be so happy if I had no fear they might fuck it up.

firebomb! :)

I... skipped the original game somehow :(

But, after seeing this video, I really wonder: god mode? dog mode? wtf mode?

ow fuck yea i remember the original

i would rather play BLOOD remake, that was fucking amazing game

Hell yeah! Good old games.

blood was fucking amazing!

I second that!

I tried playing "blood 2" but my computer way back then was too slow to run it.

Pentium 2 266MHz, 128MB RAM, 3DFX Voodoo 2 8MB VRAM.

rofl gonna dl blood tonight, now that was a game

blood was the greatest game ever!

the train level alone was more fun than many games

Some informations:

fast paced & fully moddable, biaaatch!

Q: "If you need to compare multiplayer of ROTT to other game, what it would be?
A: "If we had to compare ROTT to another game it would be ROTT 95. If we HAD to compare it to another multiplayer game it would be Unreal Tournament."

Q: "Being that the game is in the Unreal Engine, how easy will it be to mod the game and build custom levels? The same as any Unreal engine game? Would be nice to get, maybe, a tile-based editor like the original. Might be asking for too much though. :)"
A: "As easy as we can make it! The game will be fully moddable and we're streamlining UE3 with our assets as best we can for everyone!"

Q: "Hey, if you guys are releasing a playtest version for the beta testers, should we expect a pre-sale very, very soon?"
A: "Pretty soon, yes"

"Just played ROTT 2013 with the team for around an hour. Never have my heart been pumping so hard while playing a game. This is EXTREME! Hardcore Shooter Fans - Beware! This is twitch shooting at its finest ;) SOON!"
by Frederik Schreiber

It does look like it could be a bit quake-like, if it has nice movement, and nothing too serious wrong with the gameplay or engine, then I think I could enjoy it a lot. I haven't looked at the weapons in the new ROTT, but maybe if the ridiculous ones were removed, there could be a nice set of balanced weaps for more competitive mp. It looks like they're keeping everything fairly simple though which is a good thing.

Also 15$, FREE DLC planned, fully moddable. I hope it will be nice.

rocket launcher ;]

firebomb was like launching a t-shaped cluster of 30 rockets.
thug gun ;)

:D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CmCQKcbk7cA
btw. didn't see that before, you can see rocket jump there ( 1:09)

btw. this is very early multiplayer gameplay http://youtu.be/bgmOHKHlgwc

I can't tell if I'm getting old and just want my vidyagames to be fun vidyagames or if they're trying waaaay too hard to do stuff that was politically incorrect 15-20years ago.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qY2AqKCpGkk
please notice characters and game plot ;)

I think you're missing out on the context there.

...the good ol' smell of firebomb

http://youtu.be/bgmOHKHlgwc

r_enableBloom "over nine thousand". seems funny, tho.

ROTT soundtrack, almost as good as duke nukem's

open console
r_enableBloom 0
maybe? ;)

What i disliked from this game was the coin grabber aspect, i never got hooked to it.

Ideas and Suggestions

remember that it will be fully modable. A lot of shit games is coming out, ROTT seems to be brilliant comparing to them. It's better than nothing.

btw.

We want to add Gabe Newel as a playable character in Rise of the Triad 2013 Multiplayer - Dual Knife Wielding and Throwing Bearded Badass. Yes we are actually serious!

comment:

Please, have CEO of EA as a fraggable zombie in that case ;P

rotfl

In the trailer i saw low fps, jerky animations and subpar art style mainly in the texture/color deparment. In a nutshell it kind of sucks (that video at least, maybe it'll improve a lot).

still better than new cod/bf ;p

I will judge it after release.

I played the shit of of original ROTT ;] great game.

take my money ;)

"I had an interesting discussion a week ago with the gaming community regarding arena shooters vs. "loadout" shooters like Call of Duty. Although I'm a fan of both, there's something special about memorizing a level layout and learning the ins and outs of every map's little nuances -- also known as level study.

Rise of the Triad is pretty much going deliver on pretty much all fronts if that's what you're looking for. The demonstration I played was an FFA deathmatch with five other players, with the balanced character, who has medium health and speed ratings. Even at medium speed, the game was pretty damn fast, and memories of old shooters like Unreal Tournament and Quake instantly rushed into my head.

Gameplay, as you can imagine, was pretty simplistic -- in a good way. Search the level, find the best guns, and blast people away. In addition to multiplayer, there's going to be a classic style campaign, that will last around 5-6 hours for most players.

The game will also be fully moddable, which is great news for people who want to create their own custom servers. Plus, representative Dave Oshry confirmed that there will be free DLC for the game.

I was also able to confirm that Dog Mode and Shrooms Mode would be making a return, as will the "ludicrous gibs" style exploding limbs, the Excalibat, and the God Mode pickup. Yes! The game is nearly done, and will launch later this year for $14.99 on Steam and GOG.com.

gameplay

nice, but rockets taking to much dmg imo ;p

That multiplayer looks very bad. I hope the solo campaign will be as badass as duke3d was at it's time if you know what i mean... duke3d blood1...

I think it can be fun for pub... competitive can't look like this, but maybe some mods will show up ;)

lookin' good so far.

Predator shoots rockets with a wizard's staff...

http://youtu.be/dWhsZAhfyqc
18 min gameplay

looks like all weapons are rocket launchers what is going on? :>

i saw a pistol :P

http://archive.kontek.net/rott.classicgaming....lery/5.htm

Drunken Missiles ftw!

I'm looking forward to playing SP with those guns, but in MP they just look annoying to me. Also its really dark, I can hardly see anyone, what with all the explosions going on, it just looks ugly and confusing. It doesn't even look funny, because everythings just mashed up in loads of explosions and you can't see anything, so everyone dies in pretty much the same way every time.

I can't really see much about it that I like tbh :( its just too crazy. I hope it can be toned down a bit in the server options, or that theres some other gametypes which help.

they said it will be possible to make total conversion, for eg. to make wolfenstein. I think the base gameplay is ok to change it with mods, or to make this game competitive.

r_gamma 2 :D

looks awesome

my triad is rising

Did they ever remake Sin?

I think it was the one with the seagull at the start, and maybe something about a bank as the first level?

sin on source engine. but only 1 episode exists. never played this.

I got it like 6 years ago or something. they promised multiplayer too but the company went down before they could. it was actually pretty cool. Plays like an old school fast paced fps imo.

its in steam :D but it could be cheaper today
http://store.steampowered.com/app/1300/?snr=1_7_7_151_150_1

Even it is not looking really competitive right now, still better looking than shitmania.

with SDK it could be competitive.

btw.
15$ - cheap
free DLC
SDK
looking like true remake

NICE.

"Modders are already starting to blockout maps from Quake III to put into Rise of the Triad 2013. Check it out on our forums and join in the conversation!"

The Rise Of The Triad remake looks like a decent arena shooter which might have potential in the pro gaming circuit.

"Some people have been asking if Rise of the Triad is coming to consoles any time soon. What do you think?!"

maybe this coupon code works:
-25% GMG25-BAWQB-8UQWG

The price is tempting. But I will wait for some reviews to come out first!

ERECTION CONFIRMED

mp video: http://youtu.be/5YPQRE57hNQ

No co-op :(

Already bought it using code from above. 11,25$

did you receive the apogee throwback package with your order?

Yes. :)

got it:
"Four classic games that offer hours and hours of nostalgia ridden gameplay. Full widescreen support for modern Windows and Mac operating systems. All wrapped up in one sleek package that allows for easy modding.

Blake Stone: Aliens of Gold
Blake Stone: Planet Strike
Rise of the Triad
Extreme Rise of the Triad"

weird, I wonder why I didn't get it. I've sent GMG a support ticket, meh. I played those blake stone games way back but I don't think they'll be any fun to play today. ROTT on the other hand.. fun for eternity :) And I never tried the Xtreme levels.

Are you sure that you don't have it in steam library after adding ROTT?

ah i didn't realize, thanks :)

rott INVENTED rocket jumping :))

just want to say, I asked the devs if there'd be bunnyhop or anything like that.

Game will have bunnyhop

no health regen

Some modders planning to port quake maps to this game already.

With good mod it can be good game imo

I'm Expecting a promod for ROTT but there gonna have to make some changes to the game (Including netcode, how weapons work, and add competitive features, movement, etc.) I would like to see this happen if any of the Quake ported maps become a success.

also to note, people talking about how everything will be broke as shit weapon wise... yeah maybe.. but in the og rott you could only have one explosion gun on you so not sure if they kept that or not.

Rise of the Triad (2013) - Classic Editor Mode Walkthrough

just played. game feels like shit. probably unreal engine's fault

:(

and if there's bunnyhop it's shit because it sure as hell ain't no quake style bhop. just played multiplayer. was very retarded.

seriously does anyone know how to return games on steam? I want my 15 bux back

old rott was awesome but this game is bad, really bad. miss the old days where everyone licensed the q3 engine :(

it's too late to apogee. it's toooo lateeee!

Is it worth the $15? More than 1 opinion would be nice.

This game is pretty stupid. shitty platforming. every enemy is basically a doom chaingunner, can't see them worth shit but they pick you from everywhere on the map. bounce pads don't work correctly half the time and just bump you into a wall. the boss battles are almost battletoads hard and just annoying as fuck. not fun in the least

almost forgot about the terrible jokes. they're like dnf level bad.

hmmm... this game is awkward and poor... =/

platforming just sucks in unreal engine (huge part of what made original fun was the platforming and secrets)... the game feels unfinished and weird. No recoil effect at all with some unlimited ammo machinegun that i can run around fullspeed in ironsite mode lol.. i shot out this huge glass window which broke all weirdly and then i couldnt run thru it (like I never broke it)... pretty disappointing.

1.5/5 (the reasons its not 0 is cause of nostalgia factor+good music+funny weapons)

Haven't tried MP yet :D

OH WELL.

So its shit?

ITT: People whining because they were expecting Quake 5.

I trust higgs opinion on the matter, he was a big fan of original rott.

I wasn't dissing Higgs' opinion, FWIW, he actually makes a good point.

I'll probably still try it out, have to find out for myself if its bad just like DNF.

If you do get it, you'll need to visit the ROTT page on pcgamingwiki, as the default mouse settings are completely fucked.

I just want to see what the movement looks like? I've heard people say there is some "advanced" type movement(bunny hopping) but the only videos I can find don't showcase any of that.

I feel like swinging your mouse as you bhop (similar to quake) lets you jump farther, but there's no flow to it. you go back to walking speed after each jump, form what ive seen anyway.

its shit if you don't have an attachment to the old ROTT, I'm sure.

If you're an oldschool pc guy who loved the old rott then yes you will have some short bursts of fun and wear a grin on your face for some of the stuff you can do in the game.

Other than that it really feels like some mod made by a mod group for free, not a game released from a developer. I'm bias on engines obviously but the unreal3 engine is really unpleasent to deal with, both ingame and out. To fix all the GLARING mouse issues (and framerate issues for some people) you need to look up info on forums about which directories and which configs and which cvars to alter (of which there are quite a few, often doing the same thing in multiple configs in multiple directories). Since this game was billed as a oldschool PC game for PC people made by PC guys its pretty disappointing that you have to do this. You also have to do some key bindings through config as their menu input options are half broken (certain keys)

In the game the unreal engine kinda sucks for the floating disc platforms / bounce pads... can't explain it really they just suck. The game only seems fun in short periods like 20 minutes at a time. Things often glitch out or behave weirdly which kinda brings you out of the moment a bit but its w.e... the weapons are lol =)

far as movement.. you can do single strafe jumps and get a farther distance but I dunno how you string them together to keep accelerating like in quake games. I am new to unreal engine tho so i dunno if its impossible or i just suck.. either way the movement feels pretty ass overall lol. But at least its not slow as fuck? Also theirs tons of crap in the levels like laying around and shit.. and i've managed to accidentally get myself stuck in the scenery/objects laying around with no way out cept rjing/killing self haha... Its just reallly amateur feeling, the entire thing! =/

Still dunno about MP.. was gonna give it a go earlier but I guess patch 1.01 reset all the config settings I made, so I gotta go do all that again! and then I said fuck it and went to play something else :p Apparently all unreal3 games reset the ini files every update.. so make copies of your shit once you tweak everything!

Hah. People make it sound like this was expected to be an AAA title. The original Rott was a silly game with funny elements (dog/god mode, weird rocket launchers, level design etc). The remake has the same atmosphere and sticks to the original gameplay elements (even if they are awkward compared to modern standards). Compared to other remakes (like DN:F) it's done right.

And tbh, thinking that any game with unreal engine will be good movement-wise is silly imo.

I played og rott obviously. gameplay issues aside. it's chock full of fuckin bugs, netcode is god awful.

It's day 1, of course there will be bugs. I think you set your expectations for this game way too high.

it can have all those things and not be wrapped up in a poorly worked engine with terrible shooting and movement mechanics. i guess back when the old rott was released this didn't matter as much but the days of no mouse aim and strafing with a toggle have gone and developers should pour more effort into the feel of a game so it's fun.

I pre-ordered and have been playing, it's really fun and it's a great reckless DM game

Everyone complaining are a bunch of pussies. It's $15, and was released yesterday, and people are already asking for refunds. Fuck give it a patch or two, the game is really fun and $15 is nothing for a game like this. It could of been $50 but it wasn't, gamers are such complainers.

The game runs fine for me, yeah it's crashed but it's day one release. the MP is tons of fun and even has a fucking LG equivalent.

I mean come on, $15.

So many top quality indie games for that price (cube world, towerclimb, starforge).

15$ = internet for a month. This game is going to trash bin 2 mins after install.

Noob casual game made by mouse hating controller lovers.
If devs dont even have enough brain to turn off frame limit and mouse smoothing/accel in .ini by default, then they sure cant code for shit.

And they have a fucking rocket launcher with heat seeking missiles in multiplayer, even noobtube in cod is requires more skill.

If powerful rockets require no skill, QW must be the noobiest game ever.

homing rockets. not the same thing as qw....

Another one bites the dust...

I tried MP and its a giant ball of fuck.

my 1.5/5 rating stands :( 2 at best. Below average / disappointing

multi suggestions: uh some voting options obviously. No homer, god/dog mode, napalm or flame wall (unless nerfed ie noobpalm has only 3 shots). client side brightskins which are more visible (ie shirt is completely recolored towards client's pref) raw mouse input. actual bunnyhop that was promised.

nothing will make me reinstall this game, the devs attitude alone makes me not want to support them. They haven't added a single thing suggested that most here would pretty much consider essential ie raw input..

game is dollar bin material
