Me and Sanjuro just met at the town center and talked. He's not even on my friends list.... :lol This is NUTS.

There are orbs all over the place doing random things. And by "orbs," I mean the person's gamerpic. It is awesome.

You have got to be kidding....no wait that's me! That's totally awesome though, wow.

Ah that is awesome. True online co-op confirmed.

Take a picture of your screen if possible, please. I wanna see what the orbs are like on screen.

Can't do a direct screencap, unfortunately, so my phone'll have to do.

The one on the right is working at the Blacksmith. Also, you can't see it, but the one on the right is an anime chick wearing a bikini. Lol.

You can see how they glow, so you can see them from a reasonable distance away in-game.

This is madness. Fable just went to 15/10 for me.
 
Anyone try out the local co-op? Can you keep your game moving and have your friend use a random generated character so he can help you out?
 
It is amazing how little orbs and voice chat can make you feel like you are really part of a massive world. I wonder how many folks can be in the chat at once?

This is really, really cool.

I did it. Check out my impressions on the previous page.
 
Even when paused, you can hear folks. I'm standing next to the Blacksmith (haven't unpaused it since I took the picture a min ago), and I can hear folks talking: "damnit! Broke my chain," and "how high of a chain have you guys gotten?" (you get more gold multipliers as you continue working without missing a "hit") "How much money do you have at this point?"
 
That's starting to hit MMO territory. Only thing really holding it back from that is more people in coop to do full raid groups. I wonder if it has bosses designed for coop? Would be really cool if it had that in there.
 
Can you create more than one game profile at a time? My daughter wants to play this, and I want to play through and do my own thing. Can we each have seperate save slots going at once?

The proximity voice chat is just off the hook crazy awesome. :lol

I would think so... I don't think you can have separate saves on the same gamer profile, but like if you use GhaleonEB and she uses LittleGhaleonEB as her profile, then it'd make sense that she'd have a separate save.

I cant imagine playing with ORBS set to everyone once the game releases....you wouldn even be able to move it would be so dense.

The amount of orbs in your game at any one time is capped at something sensible to prevent that from happening.

couldn't say it any better
 
Holy fucking shit.

Holy fucking shit.

I don't know what to do...

I can't afford this game...

But that's like MMO type shit...

...in Fable...

What to do...

Oh, good.

I just found out that you can L-target an orb and you get different options. Interact brings up their gamer card, Gift lets you give them an item, Stats give you a crazy long list of their stats (types of kills, potions drank, number of times they were married) - there's probably 200 of these types of statistics. And lastly, Kick is there presumably to remove that person from your game if you were coop-ing.

Cocop, did you transfer your Pub Game gold to Fable II or no?

I am not going to. I have about a million and I don't want to ruin the game.

If they had four player online co-op and enabled you to add people to your list and co-op with them from meeting up in town it'd be like a stealth Guild Wars.

Damn this blew my mind. I was pumped about the split screen co-op so that my girlfriend and I could play together, this is just a whole 'nother level.
 
Red Sox are on now. Just letting you guys know there is a spinning Fable 2 disc going unplayed.


Also it is a noisy game.

Sneaking up behind people and whispering to them is going to be awesome.

:lol I actually thought about playing some Lee Dorsey - Working in a Coal Mine while blacksmithing once I got the game.

What about the items you win if you win tournaments? You can't seperate what you transfer?

And Molyneux said there'd be a surprise for those who transfer their cheated gold; wanna find out what it is? ;P

Would have been nice to have that install feature this week MS, tsk, tsk.

SanjuroTsubaki said:
Yeah that was the first thing that came to mind.

Aye, I was really hoping it was going to hit before the big guns. I've had 120gig HDD since the Elite launched it requires some love.
 
So then we should pretty much wear our headsets at all times when player Fable II? Muted when necessary of course.

Also question about character editing, when you first make your character, do you only choose gender? Or is skin color/physical build a choice as well?

Exactly. That's why I'm not worried about how much strain the game puts on the disk drive since we have that update coming out. That will be a godsend.

Like first Fable but with gender. You can buy dyes later and dye yourself retarded in all forms.

Maybe you should go back to Fable 2 instead. :lol

You for sure can. All you need is a Gamertag and you can send a friend invite and then also I'm guessing these folks also get added to your "recently played with" list to make it even easier.
 
Is there any way to turn off the proximity voice chat so you don't have to hear it blaring out of the speakers while you're trying to play alone?
 
Oh, thought they might have added a skin color editor as well (in the recent interview video, I know I saw a kid that looked black. Same with some other black pirate guy in a screenshot).

:lol Not that its a problem, but if im going to create a character in an RPG where you are the main character so to speak, I want to go all out.

No. You hear everything from your headset like normal. If you are not talking you can turn it to friends only. So unless you have a dick friend following you around your good.

You can paint your skin various colors. So blackface confirmed technically.

More like "That's racist!" gif confirmed.
 
Costanza said:
Usually voice chat comes through the speakers if you don't have a headset on. Doesn't do that here?
Click to expand...

you can disable that in your profile settings. change where the voice comes from, volume, mute it, etc. just set the volume there to zero if there's no in-game setting.
