ReCore uses "sandwich time" tech once you die (edit: or not?)
- Thread starter Nibel
- Start date
you can watch any gameplay vid you want. none of them replicates this guy's two minute loading times. they're all sub 1 min.

LOL it took me 10 posts to figure out what sandwich time is.
See this is what I'm getting at. Actual evidence vs. wishy washy "Oh, his HD might be sub optimal" bullshit.
You can't just say a person's experience is an outlier until you show it's an outlier.

Well if that is true then something needs to be said/done because the longer this is up the more damage is being done to their rep over a stupid guy on twitter who faked info... :/
I think it'd be fair to say that if this can't be replicated by others then a mod should be PM'd about making changes to the title or a lock or something.
I'm not making assumptions on what this guy's actual situation is. Nor was I saying that the context I presented was the actual context. I was just providing a single context where it could happen because you asked for one. Making assumptions without actually making knowing the context is the exact issue I have a problem with. The assumptions in this thread being "this will happen for everyone", "this game is bad because of this", and others.
I don't really think any damage is being done besides in this thread. Technically the game hasn't released so if people should be pissed hat an unreleased game has a bug the. Go for it. The only people that need to worry about it are the reviewers since they have the early copies

True innovation. They really want you to fear death.

Initially reading the title, I thought it was some kind of "When you die, the world speeds up for a period of time until you respawn". (Imagine a robot simulator where you're rebuilt every 500 years, and can do whatever, but when you die, time speeds up to the next rebuild moment, with the world changing in the meantime.)
Then I saw the video and realized that it was more like Willy Beamish Sega CD "sandwich time" tech.

Yeah, but it's still misinformation if that guy on twitter is making this up which seems like is what happened.
That can definitely have an impact, plus GAF is a pretty big site that gets quoted quite a lot from some of the big gaming sites.
I don't know how well it would be received but it would be nice if the devs said something about it.
Though you are right they could just wait till reviews are out. At least people would pre order less lol.

Came to thread initially thinking this was some new and innovative technology. Now? Turns out I was right.

not promising, but lets wait for the inevitable day 1 patch before we decide whether this is a thing or not.
I'll also do some tests from another sample vid , keep in mind the user in the OP is saying he's getting 2 minute loading times on every loading screen
Loading screen 1: 42 seconds
Loading screen 2: 40 seconds
Loading screen 3: 46 seconds
I also dont see any 2 minute loading times in this video or this video or this video or this video which all have similar loading times
Nearly all evidence points towards ~40 second loading screens, not 2 minutes.
This isnt exactly speedy, but its a far cry from what this user is apparently having

I thought the Namco patent had expired and they had a playable version of Burger Time called Sandwich Time you could play on the loading screen when you die.
Boy was I disappointed.

I played this at PAX last weekend. Demo was very laggy, dropped frames constantly, and eventually just outright crashed before the end of the demo.

Oh ok 30-40 seconds isn't so bad. I was worried it would actually be 2 min, which would be unplayable.

This belief really needs to die. There are Unity games that run flawless on consoles, it just takes effort is all. Assault Android Cactus is a perfect example.
Ori and Inside say hi.
Unpatched bloodborne dethroned.
This one is waaaaaaaaaaaaa *goes make a sandwich* aaaaaayy longer
This one is waaaaaaaaaaaaa *goes make a sandwich* aaaaaayy longer
Ori and the Blind Forest performs very well too. And INSIDE performs absolutely flawlessly on XB1 and PS4 too.

30 - 40 seconds is quite a bit.
Damn.
VlaudTheImpaler
tl;dr
Sure, but compared to two minutes?
hemo memo
You can't die before your death
Was about to say this. Inside is flawless on PS4.
That makes more sense from what i saw indeed.
That's why I think it's more of an outlier than anything (and from what I watched as well...basically like 2hrs of gameplay). 40 seconds is still long (imo) but nothing that's gamebreaking imo. He may have just found a bug or he faked it...I hope it's the former cuz if it's the ladder, that would be really uncool and another level of fanboyness.
Yea two minutes is ludicrous but 30 seconds for a death load is still way too long.

I think Destiny made people get used to it, I dunno

and this is after a 6gb day 1 patch
Tons of games last gen had long load times. Skyrim, Uncharted 2 (from level select) or in Multiplayer, Gran Turismo 5, Deus Ex HR, MGS4, etc.
VlaudTheImpaler
tl;dr
No one is saying that those load times are optimal at all.
What we are saying is that it is not 2 minutes. That is looking more and more likely to be misinformation.
30 - 40 seconds is a huge difference to 2 minutes...

That is either a bug that will be hopefully fixed or we have a Sonic 06 on our hands again ugh.

Armature is based off of TexasJapanese game
Deep gameplay
Technical flaws (on console)
Long load times (on console)
Odds point toward a great game !
Cheers, that's better
