5 minutes.....can't wait ^_^

brechtos 07-16-2014 02:01 PM

It has begun. Nice to see so many excited people in the chat :p

JennyGenesis 07-16-2014 02:11 PM

Never before has a main menu been so beautifully created! I loved the transitions.

Renney77 07-16-2014 02:26 PM

I'm watching this right now... I reaally didn't want to but I couldn't resist!

Strnadik 07-16-2014 02:38 PM

I guess that after it ends, there will be complete disection of the video right? I was surprised when Abe chanted IN THE SMOKE, and Slig didn't notice him...

JennyGenesis 07-16-2014 02:41 PM

Yeah I found that odd, but it's not the final build.

Renney77 07-16-2014 02:42 PM

Yeah i rember at that bit to safe the muds you had to sneak them in the dark or smoke. if you could just possess him it would be silly:P

Yeah, that was weird. Pretty sure that's fixed.

Scrabaniac 07-16-2014 02:50 PM

ugh the video is soo laggy! :(

Strnadik 07-16-2014 02:50 PM

No lags for me, but I just can't watch him dying over and over again ;____;.

Varrok 07-16-2014 02:52 PM

Why do the game rolls you back to the last checkpoint instead of the fresher quicksave after death? I believe in AE it rolls to the newest save regardless the method of saving

JennyGenesis 07-16-2014 02:55 PM

I don't recall him ever using quicksave, I watched it up till he finished Stockyards, I don't want spoilers, sorry to lower the viewer count JAW!

Scrabaniac 07-16-2014 02:56 PM

I'm guessing i was watching the last segment of that video.. I was told it was 12am GMT :( Must have been 11.

Varrok 07-16-2014 02:56 PM

He used quicksave near the end and died. A couple of times. Then he died again. And again. Man, this guy is good at dying in this game.

JennyGenesis 07-16-2014 02:58 PM

He is playing it on hard and probably didn't play AO to death like we have.

Xavier 07-16-2014 02:58 PM

Ok I watched it and it was amazing. Thanks to Stew and Matt for the interesting comments.

The host confirmed that the video will be archived for viewing later on.

I couldn't resist and I had to make sure so I launched AE just to be sure. Yeah, it loads QSave. Well many things were probably not fully done on E3 preview, so it's gonna be fixed till the release.

Djwolf9000 07-16-2014 02:59 PM

The stream was good but the streamer was playing very bad.

In case you fuck up your quiksave, probably. Also, I believe they said Unity had problems with QuikSave so this may have been the solution.

Dynamithix 07-16-2014 03:00 PM

Oh shit, I completely forgot this was today, damn it.

V_O_T 07-16-2014 03:01 PM

Good stream :) enjoyed it a lot. Good to hear Stew and everyone answering questions for the fans :)

When abe chants,will the birds still appear above his head in hard mode? Looks out of place if there is no health for him. Regardless, it looks brilliant. The quality of a AAA product with out the big companies behind it. Great work guys :)

Scrabaniac 07-16-2014 03:01 PM

Yeah i only managed to see the last 5 minutes of it because i was wrongly informed of the time -.-

That could be it. I remember when I played big part of AE just with Quicksave, and then I panicked and pressed F5 before sudden death, and then all I could do is watch Abe die over and over again. No coming back.

It didn't help the livestreamer from watching Abe die over and over again.

Don't worry it will be available to watch again later.

DarkHoodness 07-16-2014 03:05 PM

Well that was interesting. Having 150-200k people watch the stream was cool, and it was good to see the stream chat going wild with hype, especially at the end when the stream finished. "SHOW US THE MOON SCENE OR WE RIOT!", but that just shows how much people are hyped for this. :) Mostly people were positive about the game - The negative comments were mostly nitpicking.

I was watching with the sound muted 'cause of reasons. Glukkons in the opening scene are comprehensible now? I'm loving the graphics and lighting, especially in stockyards. It's also cool that Abe now has the ability to sneak while crouching, and I like how mudokon locations and puzzles are a bit different too, it gives players who are familiar with the original something fresh.

Wil 07-16-2014 03:06 PM

You can already watch it back thanks to the magic of Twitch.

Edit: Apologies, I believe that is the sound test that went live a bit earlier. Enjoy it anyway!

Edit 2: No, it's the actual thing, but only the first half of it apparently.

It was an overreaction. They are just a bit more comprehensible than in the original.

DarkHoodness 07-16-2014 03:09 PM

@Varrok - Ah okay, thanks.

Isn't that what the "Restart Path" on the menu was for?

OWI_Alex 07-16-2014 03:09 PM

We'll be running our own livestream soon, probably on Monday. Will sort out details nearer the time.
