New System Shock 3 trailer

>Looks awesome.
Im curious as to what they mean by trioptimum blacksite. Why would shodan be at a triop black site?

Maybe it's a prequel?
Or maybe she was captured and accidentally was let loose.

>Or maybe she was captured and accidentally was let loose.
Im guessing this is what they'll go with
The escape pod might have a preprogrammed spot to land at, which could be a trioptimum facility. I don't know though

is shodan still a nigger

Pic in the op is of her in the new trailer, it looks like they might have fixed her

Somebody on another thread said it takes place between SS1 and SS2 but wouldn't source. I hope not because I want to see things progress.

it is confirmed to be a prequel, taking place between SS1 and 2.
How that makes any sense is beyond me.

doom 3 you mean

wtf? If its a prequel why is it being advertised as 3. That myth has gotta be bs
I know the original one is getting remade, but that is a separate project from this one

Well if it was called 1.5 or 2.5 it would sound like a remake.

I just hope we're playing "NAH" again.

>If its a prequel why is it being advertised as 3
Worked fine for MGS3.

I swear its gotta be a sequel though. Im pretty sure Warren Spector said it was.
I know concept art shows citadel station inside the facility so it is at least after 1. I don't know though
If they do a pre-sequel, I gotta ask, how did shodan get off the planet, to a black site, then back onto the same planet for the crew in 2 to pick her up as well as the many which were on said planet after 1?

Prey 2006 was better than prey 2000 whatever i dont know when it came out.

>bioshlock in space
>SS3
piss off

>Prey 2006 was better than prey 2000 whatever
No idea. Havent played Prey 2006. But its an fps is it not? Little different from SS and New Prey

>I swear its gotta be a sequel though
Nope.
The trailer clearly states the year being 2085.
System Shock 2 took place in 2114, while SS1 happened in 2072,

It's a middle-son prequel-retcon thing.

>The trailer clearly states the year being 2085.
ew

I call BS.

That's some DMC2 levels of denial. I know SS2 had a retarded ending but come on.

Are you really expecting actual level design? there is no chance in this earth that they dont go for the shitty corridor hand holding bullshit of every game of the last 2 decades

Wow, youre right
>shodan.fandom.com/wiki/System_Shock_2
>The story (of SS2) begins in 2114, 42 years after the events of System Shock.
The fugg? Why? Why? It makes no sense? Just do a sequel why a pre-sequel?

Honestly just care about the remake. 3 looks like it'll be too generic.

Did you even watch the video? Or play the other games? Just see

whats wrong with that ending? it was pretty good and let the game open ended without messing with the game.

Looks like doom 3 but better

How bad could the retcons get?

Its true, I cant believe it but, if the date in the trailer is correct, it is
I don't understand why. Could they not figure out how to get out of the shodan is human now plot line? Or are they tryin to make it a sequel to the original so that, after people play the remake of the original, they can jump to this without playing 2?

Trailers can mean anything. And there's still a chance they can curveball it in to taking place somepace after 3 in the full game.

Unfamiliar with the story of 1 and 2, but don't you "kill" shodan in 1, and then she surprisingly comes back in 2?

Who do you even play in 3?

*2

ah, to be young and gullible again ...

More or less wrong on all accords.
And no idea.

Seriously people, at least go and play SS2 before you come and spoil yourselves.

didn't play it, just bitter about vaporware lol

>Seriously people, at least go and play SS2 before you come and spoil yourselves.

I played most of ss2 but stopped at the organic part.

>don't you "kill" shodan in 1, and then she surprisingly comes back in 2?
Yes. Plot is you defeat her in cyber space in 1 after most of the station gets blown up, she gets ejected into space with one of the groves she had been growing stuff in, and then in 2 the pod gets found, she and the stuff she grew gets brought on board and things go bad.
Then at the end of 2, she takes over someone who is on an escape pod.
>Who do you play in 3
I don't know. They said the hacker from 1 and the soldier from 2 will be in it, so maybe theyre gonna do a split game, part of it after 1, the other part after 2? Or maybe it takes place in between 1 and 2 and you see how the soldier winds up getting enhancements?

Its one of the best fps games ever made, if you play it when ypu gp tp the bar play this song on the radio in there.

>stopped at the organic part.
you mean at the last hour?

Prey was shit

Mien nigger.

cosmic injun adventures>biocock clone

Is this a fairly accurate depiction of 2? I tried playing it but its way too dated.

yeah ok but what about the remake of SS1?

>you mean at the last hour?

...
shit

What did jamal shodan look like?

She still has the stutter it just seems like they didn't want to use it much for some reason
>Run rodent run, you won't-t-t-t-t get far

No. This is some fucked-up, soulless retcon prequel.

The only thing dated ITT is your brains. SS2 is a timeless classic, and this' coming from someone who got around playing it for the 1st time in late 2009.

So it's always the same plot even for the third one? Shodan goes rogue again and tries to do evil stuff?

>what about the remake of SS1?
Last I'd heard they were still working on it, doing the 1:1 remake
Last vid on youtube about it is from 6 months ago but they've had more recent videos since so I imagine theyre still working on it

>but they've had more recent videos since so I imagine theyre still working on it

this, bunch of webms on their blog. they're updating models and meshes. Looks good so far.
Definite day one buy for me

That's not bad. I do want to play it but, I just haven't ever gotten around to it. Will have to pick it up sometime

Wait what the fuck?
Why does a literal no name company own the rights to fucking System Shock?
Where the fuck is Ken Levine
So wait if fucking Ken Levine isn't working on System Shock 3 then what the fuck has he been doing for the last 6 years?
Why the fuck does a no name company own the IP to System Shock 3?
Why is this the first fucking time I've heard of System Shock 3?

Look at you, you fucking idiot you cant even tell her you love her then i ignore grandpa and play the clutch song 10001110101 over and over till the rednecks fight me.
3 TIMES IS THE JIVE
youtu.be/ocp8jc50u1c

Mfw the game always crashes when i try to play it on w7

because IPs are sold to dumbshits like textile mills or something. then they just dissolve over time.

Willing to be they would have lost the IP unless they made something from it.

>Why does a literal no name company own the rights to fucking System Shock?
They went and asked a permission for 'em.
Prepare for "System Shock: Homecoming".

>SS2 is a timeless classic, and this' coming from someone who got around playing it for the 1st time in late 2009.
I didn't complete the game till a couple years ago, its good and definitely worth playing. After I finished it I burnt through the original. Lookin forward to more but don't know if any of these projects will get out the door

You can only pirate it, you cannot buy it, and if you play it of course play the PC version because there is no others that count.

what game?

Given the timeframe I'm not sure it would be reasonable for the SS2 soldier to even be born yet since he enlists in the military in 2110

>Why the fuck does a no name company own the IP to System Shock 3?
Because EA had part of the rights, and an insurance company had the other. So neither side could make a game with it so they sold them
And Warren spector (worked on the old ones and deus ex) is apart of this one.

I've no doubt it's good but you're kidding yourself if you can't see how the game is incredibly dated at this point. Even if you want to look past the graphics, the controls and overall layout of the game are archaic.

Not him but it feels fine. Just mod the textures if it bothers you so much.

Whats archaic is SS1.

>I'm not sure it would be reasonable for the SS2 soldier to even be born yet since he enlists in the military in 2110
Well then they either changed their plan, or itll end with the shodan winding up on the ship the soldier is on.
Either way, its gonna be a mess

Now that I think about it, itd have to take place in between more than likely. If you did post 3, the hacker would probably be dead but I feel like they could use tech as an excuse to keep him alive

It's really not, unless you're an actual brainlet who can't grasp basic point and click. The controls are as basic as they come, it even has scroll wheel for weapon swapping and shit. The only things approaching archaic are how the skills and PSI work.

What would shodan say if you showed her your peepee, haha

>no weight floaty pos
no thank you

>floaty
meh could be worse

its a new game?

SOULESSSSSSS
SOULLLESSSSSSSSSS

they made her not look like crap so I guess they listened to that complaint

No one said the controls were bad, they're dated. This means they are slow/clunky but not ineffective. Please do not call others brainlets when you have trouble with simple concepts, it's embarrassing to watch.

>they're dated.
they are dated, but they work. You got serious control over what you do in it. Kinda insane how much you could do in it

>they are dated, but they work

That's why I said they're dated but not ineffective.

wow. really been looking forward to the next project by the underworld ascendant devs

I fucked up my first playthrought of SS2 trying to make some sort of versatile build when in the end it was a much better idea to make a gun blazing one.

>by the underworld ascendant devs
Its a different team. This studio is in Texas. One that did ascendant was in Boston

Yeah, you gotta commit to one path or another.
I didn't know anything about the psi crap, so I stuck to regular guns, energy weapons, and melee

You don't need to specialize in guns. Strength 3/Standard 3 lets you use the shotgun and doesn't take many points at all. After that you can get anything you want.

The real question here is, where is ken levine?

>where is ken levine?
probably spazzing out over some new project.

what retarded company keeps its employees and programming secluded based on project. Boston is just a remote office for them. All 5 former UA devs are now working on SS3 and the big dogs who approved UA are still in charge.

Im tryin to cope user, please let me

Hope this revives cybernetic body horror in video games. Always a neat premise for something to shoot at.

>Hope this revives cybernetic body horror in video games
Im expecting 3 to flop and the remake to be a slightly successful indy title

Prey doesn't compare to System Shock though.

>Prey doesn't compare to System Shock though.
Certainly not, but its the closest thing weve got to a sequel

It will be a fucking abortion just look at how underworld ascendant turned out

That doesn't mean that they should copy it, they should try and do their own thing, although they will copy it because they are just that fucking incompetent.

>If its a prequel why is it being advertised as 3

Attached: 1561422143394.png (437x599, 693K)

You're probably right. I wouldn't want 3 to flop, but holy shit, the disaster that was underworld ascendant.
A remake at least should more or less be following the same flow as the original. But ascendant showed none of these old fucks have any idea how to blend their ideas with modern game design. 3's likely to be a disaster.

Did they ever end up fixing that? I'm not even sure if you could fix it, everything was so bad.

Youre gonna have to hold my hand on this one user, I don't play serious sam

BFE means "Before First Encounter" which is the first SS game.

>.............
>realize I've never looked up porn of Shodan
>take a look
>there is some of her banging Cortana
>holy moly.gif

If 3 flops someone else can buy the IP and make the proper 3, and a proper remake of 1/2

I'm glad she doesn't look like a nigger anymore but she still looks stupid. she doesn't look unsettling enough. her expression is too emotive, like they're trying to make her attractive. she's an AI trying to murder you.

that's kinda hot

>he doesn't want hot female models in vidya
