Rebel Galaxy : Outlaw new Gameplay

[sXeth]

The Rebel Galaxy prequel was announced a few weeks back, but only with an animated trailer and an announcement trailer (that included a funny jab at Star citizen selling ships that don't exist,)

The background world is generally a bit more polished and refined. Random generation is no more, with stuff being designed completely now. You play as Juno in the prequel, rather then the blank protagonist.

The obvious big change is the cockpit based space fighting, rather then the "Black Flag" in space style of the prior game. Which is a bit of a mixed bag. Its hard to get a feel for it watching someone else play that sort of thing compared to playing it myself. And there's always the problem of battles becoming unnavigable chaos in first person space combat (and the ship he's using certainly seems to block a lot of cockpit view). Though he does demonstrate their auto-pursuit thing, which is designed to kind of alleviate that (but flying on a predictable AI controlled path also tends to be bad in space combat situations, so I dunno)

Oh, Rebel Galaxy. I saw the thread title and was all "Ok, this sure comes out of nowhere. I never expected this to get another game"

So I clicked the link and immediately realized I was thinking about Rogue Galaxy. Errors have been made.

Similar but I realized it was something else before clicking on this thread. Shame, I would have rather enjoyed more Dark Cloud: IN SPACE! It was a good game.

Ooh cool, rebel Galaxy was alright, and a sequel that is basically "but now we got monies tho" might improve a bit of the less than inspiring parts. It also implies the first one was successful so I don't feel like i was the only woodland mammal who bought it. The colour and artstyle looks appealing. It reminds me of some ps2/Xbox era games that am unable to put a paw on what.

I get that but the other way around. Regularly thinking Rogue is Rebel. And then being insta-corrected as soon as the anime faces pop up. Tricksy tricksy human speak.

Eeee a bit disappointed they went this way, there's a lot of cockpit dogfight space game but rather few that play more like battleship, which imo I prefer. Rebel galaxy system was a bit shallow but had some potential. I do hope they make ship more interesting, iirc every ship was just a straight upgrade from cheaper one. I do remember the soundtrack was pretty good, hope they keep it the same.

I tried replaying rogue galaxy not too long ago, wasn't that impress, the combat was pretty shallow with just attacking and special attack and not that interesting considering the dungeon were a bit long and repetitive.

Really really disappointed with this direction.

Cockpit spaceship sims are a dime a dozen, but third person cameras are rare. Too rare.

I'm still waiting for the next Freelancer-like game.

Scripted vertical slice gameplay footage proves nothing. No reason to think any of that will be in the final release.

There's actually a third person toggle a little bit over halfway (past what I initially watched), not long after he buys the fighter ship.

Lol. While with many cases, especially the AAA side, I'd agree wth you, the presentation of the video you didn't glance at and the devs past history contradicts your form letter reply. Though he is playing with God mode on, since his shields don't take damage when he gets hit.

I actually did watch about 20 minutes of the video, and its very well edited and produced. And I don't believe for one second its representational of what the launch will be like.

I just hope the soundtrack is as good as the original's

 

[Worgen]

Hmm, looking pretty good, kinda miss being in the big capital ships though. I'll keep my eye on it.

Greatest game I never got to play when it was current.
