BioWare Teases New Game

[Radoh]

Ugh, seriously people? Five full pages of complaints from one image? That takes a whole level of stupidity that I haven't seen in some time.
You want to know what can be surmised by a single image done as concept art? That at some point the game may be played in the desert, and that someone may or may not die spectacularly from a car crash.
No you can't decide what genre it is.
No you can't decide what it will be like.
No you can't decide where it will take place.
It is one image of Concept Art, nothing more. Jesus.

When I first saw the screenshot I thought it was a big clockwork robot punching a guy. But if it's just pickup trucks that's very disappointing

Am I the only one who's noticed that his right leg is a hoof..? (could be his left too, but kind of hard to tell)

You are more or less the only one. I zoomed in on the legs to check and it's just a piece of the car plus the persons pants that makes it look hoofish if you don't look closely enough.

I don't know what this picture is supposed to show us and eh it's more confusing than anything else. So I'll just wait and see what it is Bioware has up their sleeve.

My Guess: Fantasy car racing, and that driver is like some sort of Minotaur/Human hybrid.

Wow, lots of bitching about an image. This pathetic bitching at one slight detail that I keep seeing is starting to piss me off.

 

[Grey_Focks]

Good to see people are able to react reasonably and not jump to conclusions over one image.

But yea, maybe some sort of Twisted Metal-esque game? The world could use more of those, and I'm curious what BioWare would do with something like that.

 

[SidingWithTheEnemy]

On a total unrelated note:
Uhm, do we need to install Origin to play that?

Anyway, were the Darkspawn created by the reapers? Maybe that's a new crossover Shepard meets the Chantry and kicks their asses...

It's apparently not related to Jade Empire or KotOR3. And as such, I can't really be arsed to care too much. The quality of Bioware's games has been rather lackluster as of late...

Wrong! This is Jade Empire 2. It's obviously set in the Gobi desert with ninjas that drive really fast with sand guns.

Otherwise it's a Boarderlands knock off.

Death's hand race 3000.

 

[Nomanslander]

So... I dunno, a racing game? Mad Max style RPG? Vehicle combat game?

It would be stupid to make a judgement of a game based on one image, but if that's what we're looking at. Another Mad Max repeat, color me disappointed.

Please, let it not be another post-apocalyptic shooter/rpg/racer. Loved Fallout 3, but if I want to play a Fallout 3 kind of game again I'll just play Fallout 3 again.

Is there some kind of petition to get them to develop Jade Empire 2?

 

[silasbufu]

I dont like to flame something before playing it, but this image kinda disappoints me >_> , but my faith in Bioware is to the roof. Waiting for more

 

[Belbe]

Lol if only a new BG would ever happen article writer, however, I don't see my dream ever coming true.

 

[OpticalJunction]

Is BioWare doing a Fallout-esque game?

HYYYYYYYYYYPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

That would be awesome, actually.

 

[robandall]

I imagine it's a 2D XBLA platformer, not a Rage/Borderlands clone. I'm not overly (actually) excited about it but time will tell. As long as Bioware can get through the next year without another PR disaster I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

[bkrockwell]

A Bioware Fallout-esque game would be awesome (it'd prob'ly be a lot better than what Bethesda have been doing, as much as I enjoyed Fallout 3), but I don't think the game will be quite like that, or on that scale.

Not going to get too excited / despondent until more is confirmed about what the game actually is.

Is BioWare doing a Fallout-esque game?

HYYYYYYYYYYPPPPPPPEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

Now THAT I would like to see.

 

[-Dragmire-]

I don't know exactly why...but I got this Outcast/Beyond Good & Evil vibe from that screenshot, after my initial "hurr post-apocalyptic sand and dirt" prejudice had waned a bit.

That's more plausible than my initial reaction.

My first thought was a new Rock n' Roll Racing... I loved that game.

Spoiler: For those who don't know what that is...

EDIT: Heh, imagine if they trolled everyone and said it was Dragon Age 3.
