Decadence trailer and release date

Postby ad_hominem on Mon Feb 02, 2009 12:19 pm

The Decadence team have announced a March 2009 release date for their multiplayer mod, as well as releasing a new trailer showing a bit of what you can expect to see in the mod.

There comes a time in every mods development cycle where screenshots aren’t enough, and if they say a picture is worth a thousand words, a trailer should be plenty!


You can watch the trailer on youtube, moddb, or on their site.

All of their releases are promising, and March, wow, that's sooner as I expected, can't wait for it!

I'm not sure if I agree with the "tactical" or "unique classes" claims...

I've suddenly lost all interest in this mod, that was one of the most underwhelming trailers I've seen in a while.

With new animations and light post processing the characters would look more appealing. The hl2dm animations don't do any good any more sadly.

With new animations


That's exactly what I said on their YT vid and I was told they are new. Another person also said that so I'm not alone. I knew they looked similar.

Doesnt seem that tactical, but the weapons (concepts etc) are cool.

Maybe they shouldve made a little story about an attack on a waternode instead of just random shooting.

I just can't get over the female model designs, seriously why do they have the legs of a hippo?

looks nice, but my major problem:

the girls are very unattractive... as The Wanderer said.. whats up with those thunder thighs? Is this a flaw or a feature? Plus, that big guy screaming " I love the smell of gunpowder" sounded like an eight-year-old doing their best hulk impersonation.
Got to be honest, the trailer was less then welldone, but I don't see myself doing any better so i guess that makes it ok on the interwebs.

I don't think it was that bad, though female voice acting was pretty bad.

The character design and death-match gameplay remind me of UT3, but with less-technical weaponry.

The animations look like default, however I noticed that when that one dude died, he seemed to start a death animation like the old games did, and that just looks bad for an engine that, by default, utilizes ragdoll physics for corpses.

Also the dialogue seemed a bit dry. I was told that the dialogue in UT3 was pretty awesome but I was let down when I played it. I ended up turning off the character dialogue in that, hopefully I can do the same in this.

I don't mind DM gameplay at all, in fact I love it. I just hope this mod will live up to its claims and give us some interesting experiences. The fact that it has custom weapons and models is appealing, but I just hope that's not the only interesting part.

All in all, it's a pretty mod, but I just don't see anything other than that in the trailer.

AFAIK your teammate can revive you if you're down. That's why it starts a death anim.
