Guys who have played the game, is it that bad?
When a lurker runs at you, do you actually here it?
I was actually looking into this because it is the one thing you hear before anything else, does the xenos have audible footsteps?
Do they have any weight to them as they go by?
I was recalling my time spent on Alien Isolation and that was ALL THAT YOU HEARD in the game. The one thing you needed to anticipate was the alien's footsteps.
In the videos of AFTE, i really didn't here anything at all. I really didn't feel like the xenos weighed any more than the weigh of a little dog if not a cat. That was VERY CONCERNING. Even xenos falling to the ground made no noise whatsoever. The soundtrack basically took over and if other games could be used as reference people are going to turn the music soundtrack as low as f**king possible to increase the intensity of the sfx.
I undestand that it was an ALpha Build, but there was MUCH to be desired in terms of polish. What ELSE could they focus their resources on except for these things? MARKETING? I'm on Cold Iron's Twitter and all they keep pushing are these video 2d/3d montages that look like student work.
Do they literally have work being done as we speak? and if so, are they promising anything or is this yet another gamble?
Its like ACM all over again.
