Fresh Thief 4 cinematic

[elwing]

With lazorz eyes?

[Outlooker]

More new images (are those really _screenshots_? If yes, then at least "wow" for the amount of detail they put in this).

 

Bonus: Find Garrett (He is in all images, in the last one I'm still searching).

Those are what we call bulls hots. They are not in engine shots. They may have used the games assets to make them but they've been heavily edited. UT3 had the same crap.

It will look better then dxhr but probably not by much.

While I can respect creating the collapsable bow to ensure that it would actually work, making a replica of the outfit is a little much. I just hope they put as much time and effort into the game mechanics as they did to the issues of style.

They say that the video was shot real time in game engine. By the way, I know where they drew inspiration from when they were designing Garrett:

They also said these were in game screenshots when UT3 was coming out:

 

 

 

The point is, they are full of shit lol. All devs say their bullshots are in game, yet when the game comes out, not a single person is able to get their game looking as good as in the bullshots. Saying that, the game should look pretty good.

Jay didn't embed the video.

They're using a TDM trick in it.

[Melan]

I think that was also in Thief 3, wasn't it.

Jay didn't embed the video.

 

Jay couldn't find an embedening button

[Arcturus]

Doilies were in TDM first, though.

[Springheel]

I have to say, these look pretty damn good.

You don't need it. Just put in the link & the forum automatically embeds it (if it's YouTube).

Interesting quote from the latest blog post:

 

Yes - I think fans will be happy to hear that old school style melee combat is still there like the classic Thief games, and it’s just as challenging.

 

That sounds promising. But this just sounds stupid:

 

Garrett gets his focus ability as part of the main story due to an even that occurs early in the game – but I don’t want to spoil anything so can’t say any more than that right now.

 

The idea of it coming "due to an event" makes it seem even more lame than it being just a game mechanic.

[Arcturus]

Since complaining is so much fun, I'll complain a bit. First of all, like some other people noticed those pictures are grim and drab. Developers seem to put a lot of effort in creating this really unpleasant world. In addition to dark visuals, there will be dead bodies on the streets, an oppressive tyrant, propaganda posters and an atmosphere of a dystopia. Building on this picture remind me of communist architecture:

 

 

So I hope there will be some comedic relief, like Benny. Also those beams across the buildings and below the ceilings are a bit too obvious. They want to make multiple paths but it's easy to exaggerate. Generally the art and screen shots look great. I like Tim Burton so I don't mind a departure from the old style to the more gothic one.

My money is on a nasty accident in a flash bomb factory, rendering new Mr G. hyper-sensitive to light.

[Sir Taffsalot]

Maybe something causes Garrett to loose his eye so he gets a mechanical one. This is the reason for his "focus ability".

They said they were toning down the supernatural, so I'm thinking post-mechanist steampunk tech.

Supernatural stuff is part of the universe, but I admit this was one of the good news to me. And I'm also really enjoying the screenshots. The problem is when the devs TALK. Pretty much every word they say pains me, and when they try to fix it just makes it worse. "the character will be very mainstream" ugh... "I mean, the character will be mainstream because we want to appeal to a new audience" UGH... "I mean, the old thief games suck and we want to make an assassins creed cheap copy" STOP! Stop talking! (not real quotes, I made them up for dramatic impact)

This picture makes my spider sense tingle. I can almost see the navigation nodes there.

Well altho' this has been around for a long time I just found the Dark Mod last week.

For those that don't know The Dark Mod is not really a mod but a complete conversion of DOOM3 and made for Thief games MODS.

The current version 1.08 allows you to easily download mods in game for playing. The everything has been overhauled - with better gameplay and up to date graphics and will run comfortably on Windows 7

 

It's the same old sneak and thieve your way around, mansions, castles, cathedrals, crypts and dungeons while mantling, rope arrowing, jumping, box stacking, climbing and swimming under water - all in there.

 

The excitement is back for me now that it runs like charm and has great full screen graphics and better sound.

 

The Dark Mod is free and so are all the mods, but you need Doom3.

I bought Doom3 for this reason it's invisible to load up you don't see any Doom3 screens or any mention of Doom3 (I haven't even played Doom3).

 

I played about 7 of the mods so far and I am thrilled to bits at how they have not abandoned the PC players.

 

I know Thief 4 is just around the corner but TDM (The Dark Mod) will be keeping me well stuffed with Thiefy stuff including the scary bits until The Pig Machine arrives as well as Thief4.

These next few months are going to be darkfest of excitement.

Where did you read this from Springs..?

[Springheel]

Every so often I do a google search to see what's being said about the mod. I forget which board the above was on.
