Holy shit I though this was a 2012 title O_O

Holy shit I though this was a 2012 title O_O

Same here, until I saw the preorder in Steam and then this thread. Trine was one of the best downloadable titles of this gen, can't wait to the sequel!

 

[Ken Masters]

is the PSN version going to look as good as the PC version? I would hope so, loved Trine so much, criminally underrated

 

[Labadal]

Btw, my Steam Id is Labadal if anyone wants to play multiplayer.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

Man I hope steam doesn't screw me on this. I preordered it, have the beta installed but there is no "Trine 2 Preorder" in my library and if I go to the store page to buy it "Purchase for myself" isn't greyed out.

Yeah, when I pre-ordered it showed up as Trine 2 Beta in my library. I gifted it to my wife and had the same thing happen when purchasing which had me a bit concerned. Maybe they'll just update the beta client to retail?

Yeah I want to play co-op with people on Steam, if possible! No one I know is getting the game.

I could always use more Steam friends. What's your Steam ID? I'll add you for some co-op.

 

[Labadal]

I checked what it said in my STEAM library and it says trine 2 Beta, but when I browse the Trine 2 page, it says I already own it. No problems here.

Find better friends!

Spoiler

It's in my wishlist

 

[Labadal]

Anyone else have trouble installing? "Steam servers too busy" is what I get. Tried for the last 30-40 minutes now.

Doubt it.

 

[TyrantGuardian]

So bought. Anyone want to co-op with me? Steam ID: TyrantGuardian

 

[Skilletor]

My steam ID is Mferguson81

I want to play.

 

[Volcynika]

I'm not even home for the next 5 hours or so, so gotta wait.

 

[JaseC]

This thread prompted me to begin playing the original earlier, and it certainly is a visually stunning, charming game.

 

[bone_and_sinew]

Wow, I could've sworn this was out next year. I loved the first game, will pick this one up for sure.

 

[AEREC]

I will have to pull myself away from Skyrim to play this tonight...love the art in this game though.

 

[Gyoru]

The sequel is visually stunning compared to the original game.

I'm streaming some gameplay here: http://twitch.tv/gyoruspy

I really wish publishers would release their games outside of this holiday window more often. I've got way too many games to play right now, so there's no way I'm buying Trine at it's launch, especially when there is a strong possibility it will see some kind of discount during the Steam holiday sale.

Or you could support the developers and purchase the game for the pretty damn fair full price at release date regardless of future sales, if you want to play it? I don't mind it at all.

Or you could want to get the most for your money like any reasonable person.

 

[Famassu]

PC/Mac - 12/7/2011 (Preorder on Steam) | XBLA - 12/21/2011 | NA PSN - 12/20/2011 | EU PSN - TBD | Linux - TBD 2012

FUCK YOU ATLUS. This is a Finnish game, why isn't this being released in Europe at the same time. >: ( I hate US publishers for this BS with European developed games.

I got two free TF2 items for pre order I should be able to turn around and profit off of.

 

[Volcynika]

The game will not be on sale during the Steam Holiday Sale.

Someone posted it in an earlier Trine 2 thread I think.

I'd love to give them full price, but I won't get around to playing it until I finish up a bunch of other huge holiday releases that came out first. Same story with Serious Sam 3 and Rayman Origins. These are all games I'm really interested in, and would be day-one purchases if they came out during a time of the year that wasn't jam-packed with major releases.

That still doesn't mean I won't take advantage of a sale if one comes around before I am ready to play the game.

 

[hiverbon]

For those of you still seeing "Trine 2 Beta" - restart steam. I just did that and the beta disappeared with the uninstalled Trine 2 in its place.

 

[Snuggles]

I'll buy this over the weekend. It's too pretty to pass on. I still haven't played Trine 1 despite owning it, lol.

 

[divisionbyzorro]

Can't wait! Super hyped for this. Trine 1 was so much better than I expected.

 

[TheChewyWaffles]

I have a great computer and a 360 - I assume this is better on a PC?

 

[snoopeasystreet]

I know that somewhere, there's a stoked Chris Remo right now.

 

[-SD-]

Really enjoying Trine 2, so far. It's like you're in a fairy tale.

Such attention to details: the way the characters react to their surroundings via natural looking animations designed for each occasion, the way fire sounds when blocked with an object, the reflections on water bubbles and so on...

Water is amazing. This feeble GIF does not do it justice.

Wow...that water looks amazing

 

[Salaadin]

First game was great on PC. Great to look at, great to control, controller support.

 

[AtlusAram]

It looks even better when you dive down beneath the surface.

 

[Orcastar]

Came here to post this.

The game itself looks amazing though. Day one for me, whenever that might be...

 

[Snuggles]

First game was great on PC. Great to look at, great to control, controller support.

Is it better with a pad or KB/M? Since I plan on picking up 2, I should probably play 1 first.

 

[Fl1pp13]

I'm really enjoying this! The details are great, as is the music which really enhances the experience. Haven't tried the co-op though, guess I'm going to finish it solo..

I don't have pad but it controls really well with mouse and keyboard.

 

[Salaadin]

It was fine on both control methods. I stuck with controller most of the time so I could sit back in my chair.

Cool, thanks guys. It's been sitting in my backlog for a long time now, but this gives me a good reason to boot it up. The PC shots I've seen are just incredible, if the rest of the game looks that good it'll be up there with Rayman and The Witcher 2 as the prettiest game of the year.

 

[JaseC]

The game will not be on sale during the Steam Holiday Sale.

Someone posted it in an earlier Trine 2 thread I think.

Did this come from FrozenByte or is it just an assumption based on the game's proximity to the Christmas sale?

Edit: Just noticed that the statement in question has been posted on the first page. I'll buy the game now, then.

Edit 2: Wait, Trine 2 is on my Wishlist. Who knows, maybe I'll win it.

 

[MustacheBandit_]

i played the first one on PS3 and this second one on my PC. Controls both work well but it seems a bit easier to control on the PC, especially using the wizard.

 

[ROBOKITTYZILLA]

Going to pick up a Christmas tree and a few things but I'll be on to play in a few hours.

My steam ID is Mferguson81

I want to play.

Couldn't find that name on Steam. Add me: ROBOKITTYZILLA

 

[Stallion Free]

The games are approximately 1 billion times easier on mouse and keyboard.

 

[Luthos]

My god @ the trailers...

This game is beautiful. So colorful...

Antialiasing, graphics detail levels, performance and 3D Vision guide.

http://uk.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/trine-2-stunning-3d-vision-ready-sequel-launches-on-steam

Going to try this out now:

Some gamers, however, find FXAA abhorrent, regardless of the quality of its implementation, simply because of the ‘blur’ that the technique applies, which by design reduces the sharpness of a game’s graphics to tackle the aforementioned aliasing. To disable its use in Trine 2 open %APPDATA%/Trine2/options.txt and change setOption(renderingModule, "PostProcessAntiAliasing", true) to setOption(renderingModule, "PostProcessAntiAliasing", false).

 

[FINALBOSS]

I absolutely loved the first on PSN.

 

[-SD-]

Indeed, there's a nice increase in image quality with only SSAA.

FXAA + 2xSSAA

4xSSAA

Famassu,

The European PlayStation®Network release is not necessary delayed; it is perfectly possible it will launch at the same time. We're simply unable to announce a specific date until we have all necessary approvals.

I hope so. I might get the PS3 version for local co-op. My friends will kill me when they find out I have the game on PC and playing without them.

 

[Kevin]

This game looks so gorgeous. I threw my money at them the day the preorder on Steam went up.
