:( Dammit, I try to write interesting things, I really do, but everyone here seems to dis it. What do you have against Nuubs? Nearly everyones been one at one stage. :(

Facsimile 12-03-2002 03:35 AM

Sorry
 
I accidentally double posted and I cant delete it.

BigBro 12-03-2002 08:14 AM

I dissed you? Sorry if it seemed harsh, but I was just agreeing with you.

Q: What ever happened to Hand of Odd, Munch's Exoddus and/or Squeek's Oddysee?

A: We are currently not in production on those titles at this time. Oddworld is presently working on a title that is concurrent with the evolution of the Quintology, but unique from our previous games. So even though it is unlike anything we've released so far, we think you'll agree it couldn't have come from anyone but Oddworld.
What does it mean? Concurrent with the evolution of the Quintology? This means it has nothing to do with the quintology? Will it still be a 'puzzle/adventure' game? Or is there a shooter, tactical game, sports-game,... commin' up? Grrr, I don't know what to think. I'm actually a little scared: will I like it or not. Will they stick too some old stuff, or will it be completely new (no Abe, Munch, Squeek,...).

HELP, WHAT ARE THEY DOING?

:fuzmad: (And PLEASE: no childish answers like:" I dunno!"):fuzmad:

M.O.M 12-03-2002 04:09 PM

whats all this, are they doing something apart from the quintology and the habitales/faeritales!?!?

probably a game...

TheKhanzumer 12-03-2002 11:51 PM

SligStorm?
 
Since Hand of Odd, Munch's Exoddus and Squeek's Oddysee are not the next game...

My best guess is that it will be SligStorm, possibly a first person shooter.

An oddworld FPS......YIPEE!!!!!!
 
I would love an Oddworld FPS! That would be cool! I think I suggested an Oddworld FPS in my Shrykull thread a while back.

What are you talking about? If its going to be concurrent with the evolution of The Quintology, then it will coincide with the series. So, in other words, its probably going to be the next game in the series. :|

Xavier 12-04-2002 09:24 AM

a FSP? no i don't think so... Sherry McKenna don't like that genre.

I think it will be something realy new and we actually know nothing... so why guess?

TheKhanzumer 12-04-2002 11:26 AM

I guess you're right Xavier. There really is no point in guessing since it isn't going to be anything we think it might be.

Xavier 12-04-2002 12:41 PM

I'm glad your with me khanz...
by the way it's nice to know it isn't a game about the one we know a bit so there can be no "stupid" theorising for the moment (like guess the story only by the name of the hero)

Re: Hand of Odd
 
Nope! I found out that Munch's Exoddus is next acording to what I've seen on the internet though I might be wrong. After that then is Hands of Odd. :fuzconf:

Alcar 12-04-2002 08:22 PM

Oddworld Inhabitants said themselves this month that Munch's Exoddus is NOT the next game, neither is Hand Of Odd or Squeek's Oddysee.

Alcar...

Oddipus 12-05-2002 01:33 PM

I don't exactly understand the term: 'is concurrent with'. If I understand correctly, ow4 IS part of the quintology. But it will not be ME or SO. (And HOO is not part of quintology).

Could it be possible that they are making another bonusgame to AO? Or a bonusgame to MO (that is not ME?)

Xavier 12-05-2002 01:45 PM

Oddipus... I understood it was NOT from the quintology, that they wanted to make something appart...

Fez 12-05-2002 03:04 PM

i'm scared, not really but what would happen if no one liked the next game and OWI didnt have enough money to make another one!

it had a better have something to do with oddworld, but for all we know it could be metal gear solid 3!?

Xavier 12-05-2002 05:27 PM

I don't think oddworld will do something bad... they are a label of quality...

they have never done bad games

Jacob 12-05-2002 08:42 PM

I hope its darkly violent and takes place across Mudos away from everything else...

Mac the Janitor 12-05-2002 09:15 PM

So do I. I liked how dark AO was, and they should make another like that--except darker.

TheKhanzumer 12-06-2002 01:05 AM

Molluck's Oddysee
 
I know theorizing about the next game is pointless but I couldn't help sharing this idea. Mainly because I have a very strong feeling I might be on to something.

What if the next game involves Molluck on the run from some sort of Magog Cartel police force. It would follow him through various tribulations and in the end... well who knows.

Just a thought. Doubt it is right.

I like the Metal Gear Solid series!

Xavier 12-06-2002 10:13 AM

I would like to see something 100% new and with new characters... not something like the story of an "old" character... but that can be nice too

Oddsville 12-06-2002 10:17 AM

Oddworld will never make a Metal Gear game or any other type for that matter, they are strictly Oddworld. OWI even said themselves that they will never make a game that dose not take place on Oddworld.

Xavier 12-06-2002 10:58 AM

oddsville... true...
I wonder when the next will be befor, while or after the quintology...

Jacob 12-06-2002 11:46 AM

It would be interesting to see Molluck, but not as a playable character. If he recruited the character your playing to help him then that would be interesting cos, not only would you be against the Cartel but also against the Natives.

It might even be something to do with a baby Gabbit thats grown up. Or a Bounty Hunter...Or a Homosexual Slig called Foo-Foo...

I think the best definition of concurrent would be 'at the same time'. I presume this means that the OW4 will be made at the same time as the Quintology (as it is) rather than that it is set at the same time in Oddworld's history
