According to google translate the AI can sometimes be strawberry, so that's not a good sign..

Actually they wrote that AI is kinda too predictable and sometimes weird in the lower difficulty settings.
Overall impressions are quite good.
And what's the deal about that little creature you can vomit Confused

He says that playing it with KB+mouse doesn't feel as fluid and natural as playing with a derptroller. I sure hope he is wrong Very Happy

And it seems close combat when you are discovered is kinda fucked up.

I played it for some minutes a couple days ago.

The game plays basically like a third person thief. The notoriety is marked by a tatoo on you back. When it gets red you are exposed. You can hide behind corners, inside closets and some other places. Also, you can look through pickholes, extinguish torches, hide bodies.
There´s a heavy emphasis on noises. For instance, you need to land on a carpet if you dony want to be heard.

Combat is not really the focus of the game. If an enemy spots you, you can parry him (LMB) until you have a chance to strike, unless you are playing Goblin Mode which is a synonym for hardcore mode. In Goblin mode, once you're spotted and within range, you won't have the opportunity to parry attacks to avoid being killed.

The other difficulty settings offer a parry system which will offer a chance of redemption: silence your enemy, and you may - if unseen and unheard - escape.

Havent reach the part where you assign attributes points yet -didnt play that much.

You can vomit creatures (by using amber) to assist you by crawling under areas otherwise impassable by your characters, reach levers and other mechanisms, etc.

The way I see it, every life is a pile of good things and bad things. The good things don’t always soften the bad things, but vice versa, the bad things don’t always spoil the good things and make them unimportant.

I love games that are heavy on stealth, but the trailers for this never quite convinced me. Waiting for someone to try it...

Me neither, but i hope there is a difficulty slider. Will play this on the highest then. Seeing how the AI only patrols on a specific rail Crying or Very sad

Screenshots, these use GeDoSaTo but I just found out that while the game supports both 32 and 64 bit under 32-bit mode the texture resolution is drastically reduced.

EDIT: And they are using UE3 now, not their own engine as with Mars War Logs or Of Orcs and Men.

It's not their engine afaik ,the silk engine is by Spiders. Who also made Bound by flame,Mars and Of Orcs and men(with the help of Cyanide).

But I like the game so far. I can see the frustration presented in the previous video review though. Styx's movements when jumping is a little touch and go at times. Smile

Mars War Logs was Spiders, not these guys. They worked a lot together in the past, but War Logs and Bound By Flame were Spiders alone - both great games, imho.

Win64, if you use the x64 dlls. I just tried it and works fine Razz

( http://www.mediafire.com/download/n4t0nkw6k9fxg9l/UE3.rar - it's just the sharpening, I didn't actually change anything else because the rest is all down to personal taste)

I like that can you go pretty much everywhere up and down and you have to look out for buckets or whatever to no alert guards Laughing If this game had the fluid moves from mordor/ass creed in platforming would have been awesome Sad

Thanks, but somehow it didn't work in any of the 32bit or 64bit folders with your config Surprised
Only the DELETE key to reload the config seemed to work, as the game paused every time for a sec.

But with the standard 1.5.1 i now downloaded it works fine with 32bit Surprised
