Shhh; don't give them ideas. Although that would make a more "natural" FPS than fvcken Syndicate.EverythingIncredible said:
You see, that would make too much sense being a natural fit and all. I personally envisaged a new Syndicate being like that and not a run and gun, non squad based FPS. Looks like they're just retrofitting a Riddick game.octafish said:
Why can't we have rts on consoles? I remember playing Unreal Tournament 3 on ps3 with a keyboard and mouse. A cheap setup is similar to the cost of a controller. Somebody needs to show the new generation how great these games can be, instead of pouring old IPs into the current mold.
Also, hello escapists! Wish my first post was on a happier topic :/

Worthless. The entire games company.
Not only do we get a sack of shit masquerading as something good, but there's the added aftertaste that the game we fondly remember can never be re-made now due to licensing issues.
Activating Cortex Bomb now.
No Syndicate.

Well, we can thank the brownshooter broforce fratboy crowd for this one. They're old enough to remember Syndicate, but couldn't operate a computer running MS-DOS. Or anything before XP for that matter. The squeaker teen crowd is pro FPS as well, but can't be blamed. They have no idea what we are talking about.
As long as they are at it, I'm sure they're in the mood for:
Masters of Orion the FPS
Populous the FPS
Total Annihilation the FPS
First Person Dragon's Lair Re-Boot
As long as they are brown enough.

As soon as I saw "reboot" and "FPS" I knew there was going to be a humongous outcry.
I was not disappointed.

But I want real Syndicate! Dammit!
You do know that Syndicate Wars was on Playstation right?GrizzlerBorno said:
Ok as others have pointed out you COULD have made a fairly decent Syndicate FPS - but they won't. As a tactical squad based game - hell I'd have brought it. At least it was an old IP they COULD make into a shooter done right - unlike Xcom, whoever though up that 'idea' I hope he earns his just rewards - and that includes being fired and black-balled from any development meetings/brainstorming - ever
With the right care this could have been a viable reboot. Even a good one.
But sadly - again it won't - At best we'll have a bastardized Deux Ex, at worst I shudder to think.

They don't care about the truth anymore. They just want their newly sanctioned twitch-shooter, like they've been conditioned to. Anything that came out before they had a console is just worthless nostalgia, and always will be.SL33TBL1ND said:
If this had been any good, they wouldn't have started from a stolen name.
Next year: Monty on the Run: The FPS.

All this and there's still no fucking SYSTEM SHOCK 3.
That's probably for the best, really. *sigh*

For the best, they wouldn't make a sequel, they'll reboot it and make it cover based, iron sighted regenerating health fps with another gimmick tacked on, probably a SHODAN dating sim.RhombusHatesYou said:
They'll make it multiplayer centric, so the isolated atmosphere is gone, and your character will be a wisecracking bald space marine voiced by Nathan Fillion or Ron Perlman, who cracks wise more often than Douk Nouk'm.
Because that's what sells.
