QuoteHi all!
I'm please to confirm that next week, we will be in Cologne, Germany, for Gamescom!
From Thursday 14th to Sunday 17th August, hundreds and thousands will gather for one of Europe's largest gaming events, where you'll also be able to find the Alien: Isolation team (and me, so I'll see you there! ).
Here's a snap of what we've got lined up for you, as was announced in our news!
READY YOUR SCREENS – AND EYES:
To launch our Gamescom voyage, we'll be releasing something that will really delight those with a visual sweet-tooth.
Our Alien: Isolation Gamescom CGI Trailer – Improvise, and new screenshots will soon be available to chill and thrill you, so keep those eyes sharp. It'll all be available here on our website and on our social channels.
TEST YOUR SURVIVAL SKILLS:
Our gaming booth in Hall 9.1, at the Koch Media Stand B11/C10, will be primed and ready, with 30 pods to pit attendees against our merciless and deadly Alien.
We'll be offering people the chance to experience a terrifying game mode that will catapult players into a world of intense fear. Challenging gamers to escape the chilling confines in the fastest possible time whilst armed only with a flamethrower, a motion tracker and the ability to craft various useful items, distraction and evasion are the keys to success - how will you survive?
The same level was played at E3 in our gaming booth and at San Diego Comic-Con (with an even tighter timeframe of 3 minutes!) in our Alien Egg. Will there be more survivors to be discovered at Gamescom?
For the brave ones that venture to our booth, there will be a choice of playing on PS4s, Xbox Ones or PCs and you'll find some great Alien: Isolation goodies to claim as mementos.
BE A PART OF OUR SHOW FLOOR NEWS:
Our Facebook, Twitter and Vine channels will be busy at Gamescom bringing you the latest buzz from the show, which hopefully will include visitors stopping at our booth!
Nee, our Community Manager will be around to chat and answer questions throughout the show. As well as handing out goodies to some lucky fans, she'll also be sharing daily highlights, including gamer reactions, live show coverage, cosplay snaps and more.
We'll also want to know your top Gamescom moments. Whether it's your thoughts on trying out our game challenge; your impressive cosplay photos or hanging out at our booth with the Alien: Isolation team, we want you to share them with us. Just tag us on Facebook or mention us on Twitter – get involved!
For those joining us, see you at Gamescom!
best,
Nee

Just saw what I believe are some of the screenshots that will be released for Gamescom. There seems to be some terminals at the station that include a series of folders with info and logs from Sevastopol's population which is a nice touch. Also noticed some tech that resembles the medical scanner from Prometheus quite a bit.
You're welcome, biatch.
Gameplay footage from Gamescom:

Random Cal is random.
Anyway, where are the screenshots you mentioned in the second post?
They should be released soon for Gamescom along with the CGI trailer. They were labelled to be from PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Still no PS3 or X360 that I noticed.
Looking forward to it.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :laugh:
I've seen both demos in true HD and barely noticed any big differences. The video from the front page with no audio commentary is the full clip from PC. Here you can see both:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGpwonNgFSY#ws (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bGpwonNgFSY#ws)
Where there are obvious differences between pc and ps4. It isnt that bad. I might have to get the pc version and just play on low settings. Though i would rather not have to buy the ps3 version. It does look amazing. Just watching some of the gameplay kinda scares me a bit
Watching that CGI trailer, you know what it makes me want? A fully CGI cartoon series or animated movie based on Aliens.
Okay, I've seen the B-Roll footage now. Very creepy stuff indeed. I still don't get why a Marshall would be there.
I tried to get into it but I just wasn't that thrilled by the cut-scene. Something seems off about the voice acting.
The sound is out of sync, that's why.
nobody spotted the alien is different?
a second alien ? ???
I hope that was just it. Game still looks incredible. Loving the new environments we've been seeing.
The PS4 footage just have bad contrast and colour settings, not a fair comparison. This is coming from a pc gamer :)
wow im not commenting just saying im HYPED HYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPEDHYPED
even the acting looks great, the whole flow of the game just a bit of Last of Us feat Alien

They have used a horrible contrast for PS4 in that vid, you can barely see something. PLUS...anyone have noticed that the android have more and better animations in the PS4? Thats strange
No they don't.
The Android do something with his left arm in the PS4 clip when Amanda awakes him...something that miss the PC one. Also when he "stops" waiting for Amanda (saying somethin like "come on") his next move is smooth, in the PC version there is a jump in the animation. Its pretty obvious.
QuoteWatching that CGI trailer, you know what it makes me want? A fully CGI cartoon series or animated movie based on Aliens.
I thought the same thing.
QuoteI still don't get why a Marshall would be there.
Station law enforcement. Like Sean Connery in Outland. The Marshall was introduced in the SDCC Isolation comic.
It would be nice if they showed some ps3 footage
That's what I thought the Anesidora's significance was.
So no one else caught that bit at the end of the demo footage about the Marlowe and the flight recorded? Massive spoiler I think...
Wouldn't have thought so.
Captain Conrad Reference of the starship Prometheus Reference found the USCSS OG Conrad Reference's flight recorder, also landed on LV-426 and brought an Alien aboard.

You're right on that. Strange, I wonder what's up.
Seems like differences in animation scripting. Probably because the console and PC are at different stages of completion.

I've wanted one since the Extinction intro. With the quality of CGI cut-scenes in games now-a-days (looking at you, Halo Wars!!!) I'm surprised we haven't had more CGI films.
If you look at the budgets of the last few Pixar movies ($170m+), it'd probably be cheaper to take half that kind of budget and do it live action.
Added HD captures from the CGI trailer and b-roll footage seen recently (PC and PS4) to the galleries.

Seems to be a few bodies like that. Some you could argue were victims of tail transfixings - but not that one with all the blood on the overhead.

I've been noticing this and I'm thinking the station is in the beginning stages of an infestation, ala Hadley's Hope. I'm curious if it would serve as a backdrop for the story to create a sort of "race against the clock" scenario.

Yep with all the blood splattered upwards and outwards I find it hard to imagine what else it could have been, the only thing which goes against this is that CA have said again and again it's all about being stalked by ONE Alien. Then again perhaps they just don't want to give the game away.
Awesome footage, that trailer was mad too. cant wait! looks like we have a winner! finally

I remember sometime last year when details were slowly emerging about this game that it would be one alien for most of the game. Later as you progressed, however, more would show up.
bit of shame when the cpu guy shots the Alien with a shotgun and didnt even hurt it a bit....i mean...why? what the hell...dont give the people such guns or make the script different to avoid such stupidity

...wut
A shootgun? did i miss something? I have spotted 2 gun fights : the one with the 3 guys when amanda use the noise maker, and people shooting an alien from the distance at some kind of "factory" room...but they all use pistols and stuff
ok no shotgun. but even the pistols makes it strange for me, the guy clearly shots the Alien 2-3 times while it kills his partner, and ...thats just akward that it didnt even hurt. and why all those guys stand in the open lol?

i dont think the xeno is bulletproof. even Vasquez could kill one with a pistol and im not talking about killing the alien right now but having so much gunfights with the alien just generates too much question. should be one or two groups trough out the whole game who have weapons and the alien shouldnt run at them directly rather than outsmart them, avoiding the gunfire. or at least make it looks its hurt and bleed but still standing after a few shots then run away to heal, just silly to have a bulletproof xeno in a next gen game with bullets bouncing off thats it. a bit off lazy work here from CA
Quote from: szkoki on Aug 14, 2014, 01:56:59 PM

I found this odd too. Amanda's the only person (the player) watching her own ass, hiding and being quiet, while everyone else seems to be just hanging out in the open like a bunch of red shirts. None of the human AI seem to be very paranoid considering the circumstances. I also don't like how some people don't try and run away from the Alien but instead just stand there and fire like twits while their friend gets killed.
Androids seems to be bulletproof (perhaps headshoot could work)...but the Alien (in this game)...its bulletproof and we know that a long time ago.
In TLOU enemies cant see Ellie if you are using Joel, here if humans shoot at you the Alien ignores the sound, but if you shoot thats means xeno-show...sometimes as a developer you have to put some tricks. The Alien its bulleproof to avoid the "i shoot it - game over"
Ok, IGN make a new gameplay video (same area). This time 2 of the 3 guys run away after the Alien kill the first...and Amanda plays "mouse and cat" with the Alien in the Android storage (so its not a "safe" area...if there is one)
One of the reviews I watched on youtube had a guy saying he had logged 6 hours playing the demo.
His complaints were the missions "Go to X and collect A", and the humans, as Amanda running is enough to make the Alien come get you while other people brazenly walk around, shout at you and fire guns.
I think in the end we will get a 7/10 game here. Yes they poured a lot of love of Alien into this game, but going around collecting key cards is not a story driven game. When in TLOU did you ever have to go and collect something to unlock a door?
I wish they would just ditch those gameplay elements and try to focus on a narrative. However I hold a lot of hope and I know Al and the team are doing their best so lets see how it ends up.
is it bad that i have hopes for this game?
-_-
it looks like it IS the scary experience we were asking for

In the Twich video you can spot acid blood with smoke in the floor when the random guys shoot at him, so the gun fight make some kind of damage to him after all.
About this game having a TLOU narrative...wtf?! Dead Space has this "go to x to take y" and its an awesome game. Isolation its gonna have his own history, no need to be a narrative efford like TLOU

I dont really mind the guys with guns firing a few rounds off at the Alien and it not really phasing it much. In the second film Gorman fires off a few rounds at an Aliens head and it didn't seem to phase it at all. Of course yes, Vasquez kills an Alien with the hand gun, but it was 8 inches from her and she unloaded an entire clip into its face. I would like to see a little acid damage from the hand gun bullets though, something along those lines.

Maybe they meant one Alien - at a time. You manage to off the Alien, only to find out it's not the only one. If that's the case they're spoiling the surprise a bit.
I really like the actress they motion capped for Amanda Ripley. She reminds me of a Ripley offspring.

Is it possible one adult Alien is there (the one we play against) while the other Aliens are still yet to grow to adult stage? I'm not sure how long the time was in the movie between chestburster stage and adult stage, but it's possible this game could use a threat of infestation as a plot device.
Growth to adult size is a couple of hours. The game should go longer than that.
Hmm. I'm really curious how they're gonna explain all the chestburst corpses then. Unless CA plan to pull a similar stunt to Amnesia and have us dodging multiple Aliens at the end of the game. CA might not want to tell us that.
I don't think those are chestburster corpses. One of the possible deaths for the player is to have the alien stab you through the chest from behind with it's tail. It almost definitely did that to some Sevastopol residents as well.
I forget that it is a video game and they would reuse models and such, so victims of the tail is possible. You have to admit, though, it looks suspicious.

As we've been talking about - this doesn't look like a tail stab victim.

Oops, glossed over it. Gotta say its kind of weird for the body to lying in that specific position after a chestbursting, even though the blood pattern would indicate it happened right there. Weird. But I'm gonna assume that's a oversight on their part.
She might've burst there but the body could've been arranged in a more 'comfortable' position after death. But then her eyes seem to be open.
Pretty silly oversight, if that's the case.
(Assuming of course it's in the final game).
I think I may have mentioned it before but it bothers me that the tail is so overly long. You can't even see the end of it in this pic:

I hadn't really noticed how long it was. Yeah, does seem a little excessive.

Agreed, that tail looks ridiculous. Are there any other screenshots that corroborates this? Maybe this was an early WIP?

I really like the actress they motion capped for Amanda Ripley. She reminds me of a Ripley offspring.
Hip's too broad, butt's too big. (unless she inherited those from her father)
This is what Ripley offspring looks like:

It's from the latest demo but you can notice it in some of the gameplay videos where Amanda just sees the Alien pass by. All you see is the tail dragging around which I guess is the effect they were trying to achieve by making it so long. Didn't notice it was THIS long before tho. Neither did it look that long in earlier screenshots:

Wow yes, I didn't even notice it until you pointed it out. Lots of people have been up-in-arms about the legs but this is even more bizarre.
The original Alien costume tail also drags on the floor a bit but it is correctly proportioned to the rest of its body:
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fd1oi7t5trwfj5d.cloudfront.net%2F9c%2F3b7760b9a911e19f68123138165f92%2Ffile%2FAlien.jpg&hash=6c780d3665022acf4e3c108d800f54366cdf3071)
What if this alien was in the beginning stages of morphing into a queen? Could it explain the legs, hunched over posture, large size and excessively long tail?
(https://www.avpgalaxy.net/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.uncleodiescollectibles.com%2Fimg_lib%2FAlien%2520Queen%2520Miniature%252002%25203-17-6.jpg&hash=156056b2e7eb091296790a362c568f48f0f67e52)
the way I see it, the xenomorph species can come in different shapes/sizes just like humans can. Its easy to believe that a different alien could have different legs or a longer tail or be slightly taller...
Don't think it's turning into a queen; CA seems to be keeping references to the other films as small as possible and the proportions would still be off tail/leg-wise if that's all we're going on for the theory.
I think it's just artistic license. But that tail is crazy. Like the alien-picking-up-the-predator-with-its-super-long-tail-in-AvP crazy.
They've already got Amanda Ripley in there which is not exactly a small reference.
The Alien is different in every film it appears in, why not this one? It's a ten foot one with animal legs and a super long tail. Why not? As long as it works in motion in game, and doesn't keep getting it caught in doors or anything, I'll not lose any sleep over it.

Not enough data to confirm if tail-stabbing or not I'm afraid.

It is a small reference. She's a character who has only been glimpsed at for a few seconds in a photograph in the special edition version of the film, and is pretty unknown to the "general consumer." Not to mention
Aliens influence is further negated in that the devs said what we saw in the special edition version of
Aliens may not necessarily be the character's same fate (that we the players, shouldn't be so sure that Amanda survives this game because the photo we see in
Aliens could be a corporate coverup etc, etc). Not so much
Aliens influence as all small reference to a name we've heard before.

You can see the tail in action there. It's so long the motion is fully tentacle-like. Doesn't look as bulky as in the pic tho. The way it's set up it probably stretches depending on the motion so it'll look a little different in every other image.
with that part of the video I like the commentary about needing to break the monotony of playing for hours in one locale and entering something different. (ie, Nostromo to planet side to derrelict corridors to derrelicts egg chamber)
I wouldn't be entirely bummed if they negated this effect in return for a cohesive ship side story but I would actually love to see their take on the derrelict ship if they ever get to the point of going on Lv426 knowing that Ripley had stopped there.
Well at the least the Sevastopol will have different "themed" sections of the station - the crew quarters will look different than the more lab/med bay rooms and so on. It would be great if they took this further and we got some green houses or something.

"Like the movie does, it has a very fever dream or nightmare style atmosphere to it, and what it feels like to leave the game for a day and then come back to finish it, or play it again, it immediately felt like I was back into a recurring nightmare."
And just like that, I was completely sold.

Not literally just like Ripley, but I feel like I can see some Ripley in her.
In one of the previews it mentions that tailing the Alien was the best way to elude it. So maybe the tail is that long for gameplay reasons. To hide an AI that never checks behind itself. ::)
any chance for a demo?

this should run good on windows 7!!!! looks incredible.
What the windows have to do with the performance as long as its 64 bit?
