360/Xbone/PC exclusive.
| Quote: | | According to article it is Xbox One and PC. With a 360 version being developed by someone else. Game uses cloud a bunch apparently. |
Rumors said the game is built on Source engine. We'll see.
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."

| Quote: | | Spoke too soon, there are screenshots towards the end of the article. Smartglass integration, "some level of" Kinect support, Campaign Multiplayer, Regular Multiplayer, and some one player mode that isn't revealed yet. |
| Quote: | | They're calling it "Campaign Multiplayer" and incorporating COD setpieces into multiplayer, kinda like God of War: Ascension in a way. |

If it's a MP-only title, then it's skippity-skip to the end of the world for me. Also here's the mandatory gif that usually goes hand-in-hand with multiplayer-focused games:

Timed exclusive:
| Quote: | A lot of the article has to do with Respawn's origins, actually.
So here's the exclusivity mention: They thought working on PS4, Xbox One and PC would prove too difficult for a small team, so they decided to focus on one console instead of two. (er...). "Not to say we won't [go multiplatform] in the future, but for our first game we wanted to focus on making the best game we could."
GI points how that the Xbox One has 5GB of GDDR3 ram available to devs, whereas PS4 has 8GB DDR5 ram, and asks if that's a problem for Respawn. He says they're having trouble even using the 5GB efficiently with all the new architecture tricks. (that is to say, even if they had 8GB they wouldn't know how to use it properly at this stage of development)
GI: "What XBox One lacks in RAM, it potentially makes up for in cloud computing." Talks about how the game will have unlimited dedicated servers for the game, offloading "a few dozen AI" and physics, says the game would be impossible without the cloud and wouldn't have attempted it. Still dealing with unfinished hardware and software, so it's "still a little rough going at times." |

It depends what it's like, surely? Multi-only has its place - no-one complains about the lack of TF2 single-player, for instance. And I'd rather a good multi-only game than something with a crappy single-player campaign tacked on.
Could be an interesting game, but the promo-artwork makes it look like CoD by-way of Halo.

I'm doubting that exclusivity big time (temporary, assuming it even gets to that).
Either way, MP only retarded-fest skipskipskipitty-skip for me.
Oh and the cloud paragraph... LMAO

| Quote: | - Xbox One, PC
- Xbox 360 version developed by someone else
- Planned to target current gen, but realized that they couldn't run it
- Started to look into next gen and the answer they got from Microsoft intrigued them
- They said they needed to focus on fewer hardware. In the future they are open to more. They don't specify if it would this project or another.
- Plan to use Microsoft's Cloud for dedicated servers and physics and AI calculations
- Spring 2014 Release Date
- First person shooter
- "Mech" and ground combat
- "Mech's" are called Titans.
- They want these Titans to feel fast. They can dodge etc.
- If you don't want to pilot the Titan you can have it follow you, killing people as it goes along.
- Player characters are called Pilots
- They are extremely agile. Can run on walls, multiple jumps.
- They can take down Titans. Jumping on them and shooting the "brain".
- You need to be cunning as a pilot. "Hit and fade" tactics is the term the game director uses.
- Pilots come equipped with a variety of weapons. Pistol, Assault Rifle, Anti-Titan Rocket Launcher, data knife used to hack AI characters into joining you.
- There are AI enemies on the maps.
- You survive longer than in COD. Making it more welcoming to newcomers.
- Source Engine. Building new engine = too much time.
- Source gives them 60 fps
- Rewrote aspects of it for next gen
- Article talks about the process of forming the team, being fired, prototyping ideas etc. I recommend reading it.
- Going for a District 9 or Blade Runner vibe.
- Integrate memorable single player moments into a multiplayer game.
- Storytelling style will be more Left 4 Dead.
- Humans segregated between Earth and frontier planets. Corporation trying to take the resources of these frontier people. |
It's going to use the L4D method of storytelling.

The good news after this reveal is EA's Xbone exclusives will likely be on PC day 1. It's just the PS4 that will miss out.  Mirror's Edge 2 in my veins nowwwwwwwwww

What I find interesting is that PC is in there as well. There aren't a lot of xbox exclusives that also end up on PC. Maybe Microsoft is changing their strategy and "forcing" the developer to do a PC version as well? That might be nice.

It's not a MS published title so maybe EA (that wants to promote Origin) convinced them that a PC version would not be a big threat.
No way MS "forced" them or Quantum Break would be coming to PC as well..

Yeah but EA are money grabbing bastards and they would have forced them to make it for PS4 as well. MS was the one influencing (i.e. paying for) which platforms will it be on as I see it.
Also, did they say Quantum Break was an exclusive? I don't think they did at the conference but I can't remember. Obviously it won't be on PS4 since its published by MS Studios, but PC is still a possibility.

They don't own the IP they can't push as much as they want. For example see Splinter Cell: Conviction. PC/360 only.

Really?
Wait, why should the PS3 be the one to be spared from that crap?!

Maybe I'm one of the few (as a huge Hawken fan) that am pretty excited by this. Even if it's multiplayer only, I can still dig it if there is a decent population of players and, of course, dedicated servers. Can't wait to see some gameplay.

It's an online only game so piracy and profits wont be a problem. Also Source engine so a PC port should be easy I presume? Also licensed by Valve so that might have something to do with it.

Thank you Xbox One for letting us play this mp-only gamepad-friendly shooter powered by the revolutionary cloud, we're immensely grapefruit and we're looking forward to seeing more co-exclusives in the future! It's not the same experience without the amazing Kinect support, but we'll deal with it eventually.

That basically indirectly confirms always on. Cause if your internet cuts out or you turn it off, half the game assets will go kaput
