The next BioShock is in development
Quote:
There’s a new BioShock on the way. It should be no surprise that 2K would - eventually - bring out a new entry in one of their biggest and best-regarded series, but now we have confirmation of its existence. Albeit an unofficial one.

A “top-secret” 2K studio is at work on the next BioShock game. According to a report from Kotaku’s Jason Schreier (largely about the troubles at Mafia III developers Hangar 13), it’s a secret even within the company, with members of the development team remaining tight-lipped even with those at sister studios.

The game, codenamed Parkside, is reportedly in development “right next” to Hangar 13, though no specific studio was named. It’s currently in development for the Unreal engine.



An inside source says that many at Hangar 13 want to move to the unannounced project, but “the issue is that Parkside’s not ready for lots of people. They’re trying to be really smart about figuring out what the core thing is. They’re careful about not falling into the same problem every studio has, where they have too many people and nothing for them to do.”

Judging by the tone of that statement, the new BioShock will be too early in development to be the “highly anticipated title” due for release March 2019 2K alluded to earlier this year. (We still expect that to be Borderlands 3, by the way.)

I don’t think the people using the term “top secret” actually know what that means or entails hehe.

Good news! Really enjoyed all BioShock games. I'm curious about setting. Both Rapture and Columbia were dark and twisted in their own way.

Wish I could be optimistic considering what dumb-down arcade shiet Infinity was. Mad It'll be some r*tard loot/p2w/casino/[insert next way to scam players] scheme which masquerades as "modern fun"! Paint me highly suspect especially with all the brutal cancer the gaming industry is going through since the early '10s.

I liked it a lot actually sure i don't really care about the FPS gameplay at all and was only in there for the action rpg/adventure elements and the story (waifu Laughing ) but it was pretty fun.

Infiinite sure was dark and twisted, just not in the way i like the best. Dark corridors with creepy enemies like system shock and bioshock 1 & 2 is probably one of my favourite settings.

Infinite's story and characters were fucking great. Without Ken Levine this new Bioshock will most likely suck regardless whether it's going to be darker or not.

Lots of hate on infinite.

Don't know, the game could have been way better but still enjoyed a lot. I like whole flying city concept maybe that's the reason i liked it so much. Especially the dlcs....

I played Infinite until the first combat encounter. First it wore my patience thin with all the forced sloowww scripted story bullshit I was supposed to care about and then I realised how the shooting feels Reaction Reaction Reaction

It got uninstalled and shift-deled real fast. But it left a lasting impression, that was the worst gunplay feel of any AAA FPS I have ever played. It was worst than the first Bioshock game even.

Thats how i feel about most "modern shooters", bioshock, dishonered's, New Prey, Farcry series past the original game, new doom (could have been good without the derp pinata kills please make this optional).

Incredibly rare to get a single player shooter worth playing, thank god we have ARMA.

I liked the first Dishonored and the new Doom, the pinata kills are too much, it should be reduced or more subtle. Far Cry 2 has awesome gunplay in my opinion. I will play the new Prey in the following days.

I also liked the new Syndicate, I know, I know Laughing

I wouldn't put Bioshock,Prey or Dishonored purely in the FPS/Shooter genre that just feels wrong, they are a genre mishmash and calling them First Person Action Adventures probably makes the most sense, DOOM on the other hand is a pure FPS, same for Far Cry it's a open world FPS.

yeah, it was a good game, but after BioShock 1? what a letdown. It's like a Call of duty compared to 1. Really almost nothing to explore (compared to Bioshock1)
Weapon upgrades won't change the look of you weapon. "gears/suit" upgrades are useless.
Plasmids (Vigors) are almost the same as BioShock.

And that god awful NPC Elizabeth . Why waste resource on that? They should have focused on the exploration instead.....

Also on FC2 and Infinite:
Infinite: I sat down with a "+" expectation and left with a "-" one.
FC2: I Sat down with "WTF is this shit" and I was pleaseantly surprised.

I hope for focus on exploration and story/atmosphere, and a bit of pewpew for variety. Just not horror with jump scares (weakest point in Prey, imo).

I'd be tempted to say it's a great news, but it's difficult to predict what kind of direction the Bio will take this time, anything could happen with the current 2K. Being prepared for the worst case scenario is a healthy approach Very Happy Laughing
A Levineless Bioshock should focus on gameplay and immersive sim-y aspects the most*, then again it's 2018, there's always a 50% chance of landing a journey to the Raptstore of complete failure instead.

*which is what Bioshock 2 did (the most sandbox-y, varied and fun to play Biogame in my opinion), but also held back by the so-so direction, cheapish sub-plots and general sense of deja-vu that overall made it an inferior experience compared to the first one

edit:
I very much liked Infinite as well, even though it would be more correct to treat it as some sort of spin-off because of the many oversimplifications (on top of the already watered-down version of the Shock formula). Still, a damned engrossing ride, I actually didn't mind the (pea)shooting either on the hardest difficulty which added a bit of challenge to the default Bookercatch(tm) Simulation.

Laughing Laughing Laughing

Far Cry 2 is much better than Infinite if you want to play a shooter game. The gunplay feels great and the combat is visceral. Syndicate is not necessarily a better game but it was interesting to me because it's cyberpunk so I played it to the end. I uninstalled Infinite after I aimed and fired at the first enemies... I can't go through a whole game like this, not to mention the story didn't connect with me.

At least the original 2 Bioshock games have more of a System Shock vibe and are more grim and claustrophobic. What the fuck was that flying city carnival shit they were peddling on Infinite Laughing Laughing And then the floaty gunplay? Nope, I was in the mood for a shooter thst day, not an interactive fantasy story.
