I just noticed the guy doing a bullet-time shootdodge on the right.

I don't know why but I just got really excited. Remedy 'bout to school some developers on third-person action

It makes a lot of sense that MS is backing this actually, it's a shooter and it ties in with their TV scheme.

 

[Paradicia]

Still dont trust them...

I trust them because they're a quality developer. Alan Wake is a testament to what they can do on the tech side of things.

 

[LukasTaves]

Which animation, exactly? The one where the character lands, or the one where they run forward? If you've played many modern PC titles, you'd see how believable these are. There are even a good number of current-gen console games which, if you centered in on particular animations, have moments on par with these.

I was talking about poly counts of the model, not animations XD

Though, I'm not sure how should a properly tessellated model would look like that.

If that's true, then he's obviously doing a baseless double-talk criticism: "It both looks too good and too bad at the same time." Also, how inane a comment is that when so many games this gen already have model detail fairly close to what we see here?

I'm not criticizing, I was just saying that I wasn't sure whether that was real time or not, and that I couldn't tell just by looking at the screens. If anything that's a compliment for the game

 

[Glorified G]

Xbox One marks the glorious return of the FMV

lol, I hope more games take this approach.

I'm not into heavy narrative games like Alan Wake/Beyond but I'll keep an open mind, screens looks great. (Even if it's all bullshots, nobody is better at lighting than remedy)

I'm rather impressed.

Awesome! Now I wonder if Remedy is holding the IP to this too

Spoiler

for a PC release.

 

[SquiddyCracker]

Running on devkit is nice, but not at all an indication of what we'll see in-game.
Everything we saw looked like it was straight out of a cut scene.

 

[dragonbane]

The bridge part is probably real, but it is pre-computed or animated. You can clearly see this, because in the GIF some of the debris is clipping through the bus, meaning they are no realtime physics at play here.

 

[abadguy]

Wasn't there supposed to be some new info on this game today?

Not on this. Remedy released a video where Sam Lake addressed the fate of Alan Wake 2 and talked about the Alan Wake Humble Bundle while detailing that this is their new project.

Ah, ok. Anyway gameplay wise, hoping for Max Payne 2+Time control powers.

Developed exclusively for Xbox One

For all you wondering

Day 1 fucking buy since its a Remedy game and i want more games from them. MORE FMV, they do FMV so well its boner educing

 

[Desty]

I am not sure about the TV-esque part either but at least they are trying something different so I give them props for that. And it looks nice.

I wonder if it was running in real time from a dev kit or just rendered out to a movie.

 

[tzare]

I don't know if its problem with screenshots, but the images look blurry with bad IQ

Alan wake on xbox was blurry as hell too.

As for the game, i like scripted games that make you feel like you are the hero in a movie or tv series, so i will keep an eye on this.

i thought rockstar trademarked bullettime or something ?

You can't trademark slowing down time. Maybe the name 'bullet-time' which I thought had existed since the Matrix, but you can't patent the cinematic technique.

Now that is impressive.

Let's hope they show some gameplay at E3.

 

[JaseC]

At 960x544 it's closer to SD than HD.

 

[Mogwai]

I fear the game will lack identity. But Remedy is a safe bet when it comes to quality, so I guess we shouldn't be worried. The initial impressions are quite hollow though.

Seems like Microsoft wants to battle Sony with Quantum Break vs BEYOND.

Might be a problem on your end, screens look pretty great to me. No blur or bad IQ.

 

[derFeef]

You can find uncompressed screenshots on the press site: http://news.xbox.com/media
I am sure they are not realtime, neither is the trailer. Prerendered cutscene and it shows what the engine can do for sure, but it's the same as in Alan Wake if I would have to guess - where the realtime stuff takes a bit of an IQ hit. Should not be as jarring with the new hardwre now

 

[Slayer-33]

These are the sort of games that I want to see on MS systems, on top of what we have already of course

Quantum Break will lead the new generation of interactive entertainment, as the show and game deliver a holistic entertainment experience made possible only on Xbox One

The fact that this statement is being said confirms that there must be a mandatory Kinect approach to the game.

These dudes fucking created bullet time.

I don't see a hit in visuals. What am I meant to be looking for?

Scrunched face + bullet time.. nice

No, it's bullet time.

 

[Mdk7]

PLEASE, PLEASE leave out those fugly live action inserts.
Seriously, they felt soooo out of place.

The screenshots are just grabs of the trailer. His comment is referring to the console version of Alan Wake, in which the pre-rendered cutscenes have noticeably greater asset quality than the game proper due to the latter running at a lower resolution.

 

[Sanctuary]

Are all the big exclusives going to tie into television now? This and Halo give me that impression.

This is what it made me think of...

In-game running on a devkit

 

[Surface of Me]

I'm almost certain most of Alan Wake's cut scenes were real time, but it's been a while.

Not a single one was real time.

 

[derFeef]

I'm almost certain most of Alan Wake's cut scenes were real time, but it's been a while.

They were not realtime, and I never understood why as the lighting changes drastically in tone and colour sometimes. It was jarring in a few scenes.

The awful lip syncing reminded me of Night of the Living Dummy.

BTW don't get your hopes up for it being a smoke and mirror announcement:

Former Remedy CM on the forums:

I'm honestly so glad this has been finally announced. Let me just say from what I've seen (which honestly was just the original 1 hour long pitch to publishers so as such it's definitely subject to change) it's made me 100% guarantee buy the new console - purely on this game alone!

Like I said though things will change and already the name has slightly changed from what it originally was - so I'm pretty glad I'm on the same boat as all of you here where anything new is generally a surprise for me. It's like back to the old days of finding out about Alan Wake

All I can say though is I'm utterly excited about this game -- want more, more, more!!

 

[Magnus]

I just watched the teaser of this game from the XBO reveal on Tuesday.

What in the fuck? What a mishmash. The live-action segments were horrible; poorly acted, poorly set up, poorly matched to whatever the game is about.

Perfect lesson in how not to debut a new game. Jesus.

I have no doubt there's a better game somewhere in there, but this wasn't a good way to start things off.

 

[i-Lo]

However good it may look now, it'll look like XBone2 title with the power of cloud computing.

 

[TheJollyCorner]

has there ever been a successful game with 'Quantum' in the title?

 

[China Dont Care]

Quantum Break Rhymes with Alan Wake, so there is something there.

 

[chrizzl0r]

In the Major Nelson podcast, Sam Lake somehow announced that there is more info to come on Quantum Break at E3.

"Soon... in the month that rhyhmes with soon." and Major Nelson that i'd be rather a question of days than months.

I suspected it, if not sooner by RMD themselves.

Guessing "launch window" title.

You think they're pulling a Kojima?

 

[Chittagong]

Small detail I noticed - the 'Live TV' section in the Xbone reveal trailer actually features Quantum Break. Actors with the Monarch uniform who are also seen in the screenshots.

I think it's a possibility. Until it gets a proper reveal and I'm able to pre-order it as Quantum Break, I'll keep thinking something's up.
