The Order 1886: This game has Balls

If you don't be seen as a concern troll, don't say things which has no foundation.
The Order being delayed? It's a rumour right now with some degree of validity. Fine.
But Sony's E3 being anaemic and showing nogaems is unfounded, and saying that in the same vein is concern trolling because you're using 'valid rumour A' to somehow add weight to 'invalid rumour B/C.'
In fact, shinobi602 was saying that Sony's E3 will be great, so in that same logic, if The Order truly is delayed, doesn't that mean Sony will have a great E3 press conference? Le gasp!

Is that aliasing or pubic hair?

You really have no basis for that claim. If you followed my posts from the day I posted on GAF, you would have realised I am a PlayStation fan. However, we are venturing off topic here so let's just leave it there.

It has to be hair considering this game barely has no aliasing since it's widescreen and 4xmsaa.
Sooo are we getting previews tomorrow like Driveclub and Sunset Overdrive? Or just HD footage of the video we just got?
You're not the velociraptor that uses Gouken in SF, right?

Wouldn't it be amazing if you were attacking a bunch of rebels and out of the corner of your eye you see one of them just standing there, shaking and then all that hair grows and he goes full wolf mode, slaughtering some of the rebels around him and gaining power before turning on the Order. That kind of gameplay would blow me away.
They'll be announcing it tomorrow?

Previews, hands-on impression and higher quality footage.
The big question is whether or not the press demo covers until the half-breeds appearance, and will we get to see up till that point.

Hopefully Blim can get on the action. If it's not Gamersyde, it's going to be a blurry mess.
Nah that's most like save for E3.

Blim mentioned that Sony now has an exclusive deal with Youtube so it's going to be harder for him to get quality footage.
Probably not. If I had to guess, the playable demo is probably more combat focused while the stage demo will likely be more atmospheric.

The way I see it, it makes the most sense to reserve the first appearance of the half-breeds for the conference, and have the demo revolve around a big battle between the order and a pack of beasties. Hopefully, in the process, it'll go some way to stave off the criticisms of the game being "just another generic cover-shooter" by showing that the dynamics of combat change between human foes and the more monstrous enemies.
I mean what good is it using cover against a werewolf?

I'm not so sure, personally.
Because imo, the E3 blowout for The Order should ideally feature a fight with the half-breeds to showcase the different TPS dynamic delivered by leaping werewolves.
The GameInformer's write-up of the Whitechapel demo tells us that the whole demo was only fighting regular humans, and that the demo ends with the half-breed appearance, but no fight against them.
Personally, I'd like them to reveal the half-breeds, but keep it a distance shot and darken the silhouttes, or something.
And end it there teasing "The unveiling at E3 or something."
I hope we finally get some footage of the crime investigation and exploration.
I don't know why they thought it was a good idea to highlight the basic mechanics of a TPS in their gameplay videos. When you have a ton of people eyeballing your new IP in this new generation, it's a good idea to show features that makes the game stand out from other games in the genre.

If we get that, it'll be B-rolls, not impressions. For what it's worth, it looks like all the press got to play was Whitechapel demo, which based on the GI write-up, is basically rebel chaos, and enemies everywhere.
Eh... it's a TPS at heart. Why wouldn't they be showing the 'core' of the game? You show the cloth before the frills.

IMO if this game releases in November, Sony bundles it (pretty stupid if they don't) and Sony drops the price to 350$ in November with this as a 399$ package, this could have an Uncharted 4-6 million units per game domino effect for the next gen. I'm really scared it's going to get pushed to Feb-March however.

I'd be more scared of it getting swallowed up by the third party bombshells releasing this fall. The Destiny bundle will probably be Sony's focus this holiday. Let RAD polish the game and put it out in February when there's little to no competition.
I agree. If a delay happens and this comes out during a quiet month, it's probably best for the game but Sony's fall line up suffers quite a bit. I'm really curious to see if they really would only release DriveClub this fall. It would be a bummer but my desire for this game to be good is far higher than my desire for it to be out this fall.

Destiny is in September, 2 months prior to November. Batman is in October. Excluding COD and sports games, I don't see any other game that would get in front of it for selling. I'm pretty sure the Witcher 3 is coming out in feb or march, I wouldn't doubt if there's still some big game that comes out around that same time. Uncharted came out in November all 3 times and it only helped the system. I don't see how a 400$ bundle in November when everyone is buying games could possibly hurt the game.

If the games does get pushed back to next year I'd expect TLOU to take its place. If it doesn't, I expect TLOU to release in June.

TLoU Remastered was announced last month. If The Order got delayed, one would guess that the release date for that remaster would had taken into consideration The Order.
My guess is that we'll see another port (either GoW or Beyond) for fall, and personally, I'm optimistic that we'll see another title for fall, but it's probably a smaller scope title, similar to Puppeteer or Knack.

Of course a HD exclusive such as Skyrim or GTA5 wouldn't go amiss ...

Highly skeptical.
I don't believe for a second that any company, be it MS/Sony can get even a HD-port exclusive for any 5+ million selling multiplat franchise, much less 10+ like Skyrim or GTA5.

Sony, give me Dark Cloud 1 and 2 HD in November and you are forgiven !

Here you go. I really can't make out if there is a transformation going on. But the sounds during that scene may point to that. Very inconclusive IMO

Hear carefully the transformation sounds: hair growth and claws growth, if you have an eagle eye, you can see longer hair folding around his fore-arm and longer claws growing. THERE IS a transformation, but you have to catch it very quickly.
I just did it pic by pic: mashing pause/play, that is how you can see it.

Look at the fingers, you can see them transforming.
Also look at the hair folding and growing up from the top to the borrom. I know it is very fast.

I've seen that trailer a lot and only now I notice that the werewolf wasn't looking directly at them. He's looking to his left.

Larger image at normal speed. There's definitely hair growing from top to bottom as plastic-man pointed out
Are those two right hands? Or is it shedding its skin and growing fur?

Also, he seems to be increasing in size (height in this instance). That's why the scene just before this one, you have Galahad and the woman looking up and backing up slowly. I imagine, anyway.

Hopefully new engine build they will fix that specular shimmer.

Nah. It is looking to the left, which is interesting, since it isn't facing Galahad and Igraine. Right hand is just chilling while the left is hyper active.
The press seems to have played the exact sequence shown last year to GI magazine. Here's how it unfolds:
1) Infiltration. We have already seen this portion a couple of months go. The monocular, the shootout throughout the alleyway,melee attacks, combo gun and thermite rifle discovery
2) Meet up with Igraine, use thermite rifle for the first time (it plays like a tutorial section) and drag constable into safe location
3) Push forward to seemingly abandoned royal hospital. Werewolves come pouring in and Galahad calls air support
We haven't seen (3) but GI has and they have described it already. Which is why i think it's unlikely that it would be the E3 demo (the sequence is 8 months old and wouldn't have the wow factor since it is already known how it pans out). I think (and hope) we will see (3) tomorrow. E3 needs to be something no one has seen yet, including the press.

That could be an artifact actually of an upressed DOF. Between the MSAA and specular AA they have built into their texturing, it should not be as obvious as it currently is.
Perhaps they will also implement a temporal AA to help too.
Some would've by now if it was actually witty.

Is MP definitely confirmed NOT to be there for the final game?
I remember reading in an interview that they weren't willing to talk about MP yet, not that it was confirmed to be SP only...
If this title is getting a delay, I think it's a mistake to neglect an MP portion. Seems like a perfect fit for it, honestly.

I hope there is a multiplayer mode. Remember when everyone did not want TLOU to have multiplayer, but I was excited about it. Look how it turned out: TLOU MP is better than Uncharted MP and better than most of TPS games MP.
