E3 2016
 
So the official @OddworldInc twitter account name is quite clear: they are currently flying to E3.

Time to bet wether or not they have something to announce or show.

Varrok 06-11-2016 02:23 AM

Would they be flying to E3 if they got nothing to show whatsoever?

Manco 06-11-2016 04:25 AM

They could just be doing interviews with the press.

STM 06-11-2016 05:24 AM

Yeah, I won't get my hopes up, if we know one thing about OWI, it's that announcements and fan interaction isn't their forte.

Nepsotic 06-11-2016 05:34 AM

I'm excited about the RE reveal.

STM 06-11-2016 06:08 AM

Just don't expect anything Ike Re1-3

Don't expect the good ones Nep.

Gunnr 06-11-2016 07:10 AM

I await the interviews even if they may just state what we already had revealed. With all the repetition they are bound to let something new slip
:fuzvamp:






(Fingers crossed)



Also goodmornin

I think they are doing much better. I think the SoulStorm announcement was very good.

Also fan interaction on social networks is great.

Seriously, what else do you want?

Nepsotic 06-12-2016 01:54 AM

Games

Not holding my breath for anything big but anything new is fine by me.

Pictures or videos of the actual game might be interesting (instead of Abe's body parts).

Hopefully we get to hear from the Odd team. Whether it be just a hey how are you or any oddworld news.

Anyone else bit weirded out by PREY? I honestly thought we were going to get the space cowboys PREY experience but, now we are getting a super interesting horror HL type game.

Its like I'm happy and disappointed at the same time? lol

Xavier 06-14-2016 10:56 AM

GameTee seems to think something is coming:

Can we move this into Offtopic so we can discuss E3 in general?

Xavier 06-14-2016 11:02 AM

Feel free to start one over there ;)

Gunnr 06-14-2016 06:43 PM

Those rascals... okay I'll wait

Phylum 06-14-2016 08:17 PM

Vlam did you hear there was a new Quake game announced at E3 this year?

V_O_T 06-14-2016 09:00 PM

E3 goes on for a couple more days yeah?

It's not just the conferences and it's over?

Gunnr 06-14-2016 10:05 PM

There is QUITE a list of game anouncments this year. :)
Waiting on that thread in off topic if you don't mind ;)

Gunnr 06-14-2016 10:45 PM

Sry. My back pocket has something to say about E3 ass well.. my bad

Nepsotic 06-15-2016 01:31 AM

If you really want it go and make it. I'm lazy.

FrustratedAssassin 06-15-2016 01:39 AM

So is E3 over? Cause they didn't announce anything except for an interview with Lanning, which is probably going to be a rehash of all the other interviews he ever did.

Edit: oh, they showed it privately

Just checked on the OWI Twitter, and apparently Lorne appeared on "Giant Bomb" yesterday.

He pops up at around 1:15:50 in this video:

http://www.giantbomb.com/videos/gian...01/2300-11346/

Lorne states the reason they're secretly showing Soulstorm because "They're ahead of where they thought they'd be" and it's working and running, and they wanted to show it off this year.

He also told a story about the infamous Munch PS2 footage, and for the first time on public record admitted it wasn't actually created on a PS2 dev kit. One of their new partners were going to cut OWI's budget, so he came up with a workaround. No publishers were allowed to show PS2 footage, so they just used the assets in 3D Studio Max and called it "visualisations" and it got lots of coverage as some of the first PS2 footage, and it stopped their partner cutting their budget. (Basically)

That's pretty much the only Oddworld info Lorne talked about. He didn't really speak all that much, and barely at all about Soulstorm.

STM 06-15-2016 03:41 AM

Seriously, as much as I love OWI, their PR is shite.

Nepsotic 06-15-2016 04:31 AM

So is it being shown at E3 or not?

Privately.

Privately.

But why?

Connell 06-15-2016 06:01 AM

But why?

I don't know. He didn't state why it was being shown privately. If I had to guess, I'd say they didn't pay for a booth because they didn't expect to have anything ready, so they're just showing it off in a back room to industry insiders.

Gunnr 06-15-2016 06:38 AM

Good morning beautifuls
