great find!
 

Great find V_O_T. This shot is incredible. While I've quietly maintained that JAW and Oddworld know what their doing, the fact that this beautiful shot was not explicitly included in oddworld.com's sets of released screens suggests a very high attention to detail and a strong desire for "New 'n' Tasty" to maintain the pathos of the original Abe's Oddysee.

Nep's issue is with the colour and depth of the clouds, not the colour of the sky. Even if he doesn't know it. I promise.

They look kinda flat

Do we know whether these screenshots are still pre-Alpha/Beta/whatever or are they final?

I think it would be a hilariously fucked up move on JAWs part if they've been releasing Alpha and Beta screenshots just to piss you guys off but meanwhile mixing in some new photos here and there that are seriously way closer to Gold than any of you realize.. *coughs awkwardly*

I think that looks perfect, I kinda wanna see the suppressor in action, wonder what it does/looks like in this version

I looked at the screenshot multiple times and only now I saw that there are two sligs kicking each other's heel

Hah never look at it that way, they also look like their legs are tangled, that would be funny if that could happen :L Talking of which, with abe using exoddus's All of Ya game speak, will he be able to slap?

And one of them doesn't have a shotgun.

That's clearly a permanent issue that we should complain about.

Actually, since they're 3D models now, does that mean that Sligs are going to have to move out of the way to let each other pass?

Nah, I bet the game is built so that there’s always space for multiple characters to stand next to each other. Otherwise every time Abe walks past a Mudokon he’d have to shuffle around it.

That looks great. It would be cool to see the colossal Scrab statues in the background, though.

There's one in the E3 trailer, at 0:53 :)

I mean in that actual scene. I don't think there's any in the original but it would be cool.

What's with all the fucking mushrooms? Are they there to explain the arrival and immediate takeover of the entire world by Spooce in MO?

What's wrong with the fucking mushrooms? I like the fucking mushrooms.

Generally fucking mushrooms grow in damp, dark environments, hence their presence in the damp and dark environments. Or so I presume.

Jbot don't try to be edgy and cool.

Is it just me or is Munch's Oddysee almost a buzzword on these forums?

Let’s synergize about Munch’s Oddysee.

I don't think the mushrooms necessarily fit with FFZ's "barren, blasted, lifeless" aesthetic, either. But what do I know?

I never got "lifeless" from FFZ's aesthetics

The mushrooms are probably feeding on carcasses or something

Yeh man, it looks dark, dank and polluted. Those 'lil mushy's probably love it.

I’m gonna take a shot in the dark and say the mushrooms are the spiritual successor to the fireflies as lighting props.

Also they fit just fine.

Guys let's get the Oddworld facebook page to 25,000 likes.
There's something in store that we haven't seen yet, and I have a feeling that it won't be the Stockyard scene that was being teased earlier.

Because the 20 odd active people on this forum can do that right?

Right now there are 24,920 people that have liked the page.
I mean shit..it's just 80 people..


....


._.' fuck..

Time for a bit of Tweeting, Instagramming, vine-ing and facebooking me thinks!

I wasn't saying they were bad. They're just everywhere suddenly, and I wondered if they were explaining Spooce.

Nah

Guys it's just 45 likes until 25,000..
I'm tempted to make 45 different profiles o.o


Just kiddin..

I sure hope it's the screen in Monsaic Lines with the scrab and paramite statues, that was such an iconic scene in my childhood. As well as the leap of faith at the end of the free fire zone, I have a hand sewn art piece framed on my wall of that

Gah, now it's just 32 more to go X_X

It's nail biting!

Yeah but we don't need a constant update.
I doubt it will be a screenshot. More likely a video or something else, considering how much they've built it up.

Even better then! I wonder what the new cutscenes are like!

It's an image and five game codes. That's what they said on Facebook when they set the goal of 25,000 likes.

Oh. Well, that's a disappointment.

But they already released that Abe's moon pic, didn't they?

Yeah they have, but they said they will release an image 'no one has ever seen before!'
