Resident Evil features in OW

[Chris Co Depot]

I was watchin some old vids of what MO was suppose 2 be like and I noticed the camera. on those slig toss videos the camera wasn't pasted to abes back instead the camera was in one place, it got me thinking and i thought that the new odworld games would be great if the camera inside the factories was more like the Resident Evil series. if U havn't played the resident evil series the camera works more like a 2d game instead of a 3d game.
Also it would be cool if the future oddworld games had U play the game as the characters serperatly like 2 different games much like the resident evil series. like U start the game and U select the character U want lets say U pick abe then your on whatever level U need someting done by water U can find munch and use game speak to tell him to work or whatever.then play as munch and play from the other end. this would also be kool if you start squeaks oddysee w/ abe or munch and thats all you can choose then later U meet squeek then after U beat the game you can choose to play as abe, munch or squeek, and if U play as squeek it would have a couple different things here and there or maybe even different levels, I know its really confusing or whatever but these are my thoughts, tell me what U guys think like if this would work or not, and add somemore ideas like this

I find that to be brilliant, actualy. I would have liked MO to be much more like that, where you can't do everything you want, and you just can't seitch ever other minute.

I actually really liked the way character switching was handled in MO.

I would like future games to be multiplayer though. It could be split screen. If someone wants to play they press "Start" on a new controller and take the character not in use. The two players could still switch roles and if one wanted to guite they could press "Back" turning it back into a one player game.

I would almost pay to see that in the next games.

That's exactly my wish too. Being able to play together. One plays Abe , and one plays Munch. (and so on with Squeek and ...). But I wouldn't like it in splitscreen, that ruins the experience of being in Oddworld. Systemlink or LIVE would be better. Having all 3 possiblilities would be the max. Like the multiplayer of commandos: cooperative!

Yeah, I like that, too. What I was thinking was to do multiplayer a la the new Toe Jam and Earl game. It will be full screen until one of the players moves too far away, then it will turn into split screen. That would be cool.

I didn't read all of the first post but it was referring to Camera angles right? I do think that the camera should position itself in different places like the RE games. However, that may be considered annoying because camera switching such as that is only good if something scary is chasing after you...

Multiplayer for OW wouldn't work. The only way it would work would be for HoO etc and other stratedgy games. I think in the future, non-quint games you should be able to design some of your characters. Unreal Torny style.

And split-screen would ruin it...
