The Official Damnation Topic

[ThePlasmatizer]

Out on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360

Evolving the shooter genre with its unique and exhilarating combination of fluid action and combat, Damnation will feature huge, open environments, frenetic combat, daredevil acrobatics and high-octane vehicle-based stunts. Presenting players with an intense test of reflexes, quick thinking and rapid-fire conflict, Damnation will feature vast, breathtaking landscapes, each covering miles of distance and thousands of vertical feet.

Billed as a ?shooter gone vertical? and visually inspired by iconic elements of American history, these massive streaming landscapes will form the battlegrounds for a post-industrial conflict between humanity and an unstoppable arms dealer hell-bent on total world domination.

Players will be able to choose their own paths and navigate the world by performing daredevil feats on the edge of human ability. However, players aren?t the only ones with mind-blowing acrobatic skills; intelligent enemies will give chase and engage players in frantic gun fights and attacks that can come from any direction ? in Damnation?s world there?s no safe place to hide.

With up to three hours of actual gameplay stretching out in front of them per level, players will need more than just muscle power to get across each level safely. Damnation will offer players a selection of awe-inspiring vehicles, from motorbikes capable of launching across seemingly infinite chasms, to huge, armour-piercing marvels that will induce mayhem with every huge shell.

The high action will be supported with an epic and in-depth story which, while focusing on the exploits of the hero character Rourke, is truly an ensemble piece. Players will meet and become involved in intricate story plots that reveal much more than the obvious.

In addition to the single player experience, Damnation comes complete with a unique set of multiplayer options that take full advantage of the game?s expansive levels.

If you're tired of linear shooters then this game will be a breath of fresh air, because with it's Steampunk theme and Altair style acrobatics it's going to be unique.

I've only seen previews of it around so far and a few references but there's not a lot of hype about this game, it's probably down to the company Blue Omega being virtually unknown.
They are a company that started from gamers who were modding using the unreal engine, Damnation is their first title.

I dislike that woman's outfit. But the game looks rather good. I however will maintain that it will probably be lame, so I can be pleasantly surprised if they actually pull it off.

Hype... Hype never changes...

Doesn't sound very much different from anything else we've been promised time and time again.

We'll see.

Yeah but if that underboob doesn't pull in the teenage male audience nothing else will.

Wow.. that woman is wearing the most ridiculous outfit known to man.. DX

From looking at the gameplay videos I can say that it is definitely what they've promised and unless they do a "Peter Molyneux" then everything shown in the preview will be in.

Looks like a cool game but... was that costume REALLY necessary?

Yes, yes it was.

I should have put a warning at the top of the page "may contain breasts" for those of a timid disposition.

 

[Geo Da Sponge]

Sweet.. steampunk and a vertical element... two things I've been gaggin for in the FPS genre for a long time.

All aboard the hype train.

EDIT: Sorry, third person shooter. This looks very promising, but the voice over guy for the main video on their website drives me insane.

Oh yes, and am I the only one who is reminded of Call of Juarez by the box art?

I remember when I first heard about this game getting my undies all in a knot over her outfit. Now...I dunno, it's not so much that I care about the boobs as it is that it just sorta defies my entire understanding of physics and gravity.

The boobs...they must go down.

Mmmm....Underboob

 

[Break]

Sounds interesting. It wouldn't take many mistakes or shortcuts to make it terrible, though. Something to keep your eye on.

Eh. I can name you three characters off the top of my head that have sillier and more fanservice-pandering costumes than that.
