War of the Worlds - New Gameplay & Development Update (4K) 

Same

Fr lol

Stop lying to yourself

​@@Xenomorph6 ok

OM hears you.

especially if you've ever been to things like military airshows and you'd know the sounds of things like fighter jets completely overwhelm your senses and shake your insides

Yep

I remember having a dream where the sound was so deafeningly loud I woke up lol

Согласен

@@krifay1 No.

@@povyourdogfoodbadvideos4694why

Pretty sure the sounds are ripped straight from the movie

@@-shikajin-4078 No. They have been altered...

That's what I was just thinking as a someone who wanted to originally be a developer. This man really is so close to perfect on nailing the whole damn kitten kaboodle

I would like to see good people / NPC's who will give you supplies and let you shelter in their location. People with their own characteristics that you can get to know and like, but may also have to kill eventually to stay alive. Also bad people who will try to rob or kill you if you go near their property or hideout. Crazy people too who seem friendly at first and lure you in, but ultimately want to kill you, or they go insane due to the extremity of the situation, who may fire at the aliens to expose your position etc. It would make you think twice about occupying a house, especially if the owner is armed. You would have to kill them somehow, or dash and watch the aliens get them from afar. Maybe even lure the tripods to certain areas even. You could collect certain things to help certain people, or trade items. Maybe meet injured/hiding army guys to gather intel/information. In reality there would be a lot of people still hiding in houses, forests, or caves, so they do need to be added to the map. Of course as the game progresses less and less people would be alive/seen and you would start feeling alone/isolated. Maybe have survivors get progressively weaker and sicker too, as well as less frequently seen. Friends/good people that you meet end up dying or being taken. Perhaps have the army forcefully conscript random people as well towards the end, so groups of soldiers will take you at gunpoint and have you follow them into battle. It would be great if you could take down a tripod with a bazooka if you survive to say day 8 or something. Otherwise you keep going until you are captured by the aliens.

​@@petyrbaelish1718 pretty spoy on to what the npcs already are

It’s too much work

imagine also coming back to city areas and the streets are littered with clothes

Why are there no background noises in this game? No sounds from the boat engine, no noise at all except some cracking noice!

@@emwjmannen2 Pre-Alpha gameplay

@@emwjmannen2why have you posted this exact same comment like five times

@@thesovietshark8945 Why ask 20 people, when you can ask 200 people? When you only comment in only one comment section you often get ZERO answers.

@@thesovietshark8945 Anyway, this game still looks promising, when its more polished its probably going to be really good. I love the 2005 movie, and this game looks similar to it, great!

eeeyeah you probably don't wana be puraed in to red weed fertalizer.

Agreed that they're jarring, but once you've seen the animation once or twice you'll probably want to just have it fade to black

@@AlexTunstall unless there are variations added, like something where people would try to hold you, or maybe you have a grenade on you and you can throw it in. There are possibilities to make it enjoyable to replay

You can just hear him saying "OHSHIT!" behind the screen 😂

@@bloodgripen2257 rilly tho💀💀💀

"Maybe I can sneak away-" *just BARELY avoids being disintegrated* "NOPE, BACK INSIDE"

9:00 this is terror

​@@bloodgripen2257 Can you blame him though?

*uberpod*

*uberpod not tripod*

@@aidenstoyfunadventures8373 tripod uberpod, still a tripod, three legs

@@aidenstoyfunadventures8373 ALRIGHT I GET IT

Yep, and how many legs does the uberpod have smart ass

Haha

it's also a good showcase of the stealth mode of the tripods. You couldn't hear it, just a few light stomps near. And then BAM! Heat ray near the postion with the horn, while the tripod engine rev back up

I know right the inside of the tripod was actually wild, a shame we didn't see much of it

@@euphoriangold3677 I prefer it that way. Murky and creepy, with just some scarce lights. Don't want to ruin the mystery.

@@Raynsideways yeah that's true but what I was referring to was the inside of the tripod clip was a tad bit too short

I wonder if the inside of the tripod is entirely filled with a liquid, cause we saw all of the orange liquid leave the hatch when the tripod crashed at the end of the movie. I wonder if the aliens are amphibious?

Bruh, there was nothing to see in there

Compared to just eight months ago. The game went from kind of "ehh a cool attempt" to holy crap this is becoming something we can all take seriously. I hope we see years and years of further improvement. No other game like this for sure.

​​@@emwjmannen2Perhaps, maybe, possibly, it could likely very much be that the game is still in pre-alpha. And the spamming is pathetic ngl

@@sha605 I have better chances of good answers if I ask 200 people instead of 20. Where else should I ask?!

@@sha605 And only asking in one comment section can often give you exactly... NO answers

Also notice that harvester type tripods which is ones with cages and probes have a different walk/engine sound.

​@@greendecepticon6148they dont.

That would be really cool but that might be too much. Not to mention it might be hard on people's PCs

@@davidmccall4024 Perhaps they could have damage be localized to the player's immediate surroundings that respawns back to normal after they leave the area? So if you're in a house the tripod can shoot rays through the wall or stomp a hole in the roof but you come back to the building later and it's intact. Might break immersion slightly for damage not to be permanent but if it allows them to add destruction of an occupied shelter to the game I think it would be awesome

Enviromental destruction is a planned feature, fortunately.

definitely possible, I think Unreal Engine has a built in destruction system that can optionally be used. I think this game is unity, though, but its still possible.

Why are you speaking for the Devs when you clearly don't know enough to comment The devs said ages ago that procedural destruction was being worked on, and would be implemented in future Stop making shit up for the sake of having an answer to a question that does not apply to you

Yes, the great thing about indie studies is, It's much easier to contact/communicate with the developers so they always know what we do and don't like.

Creepy isn't ? Jeez...

I really what would of happened if they would got caught in the movie.

Its not gonna go anywhere, flipswitch games dev is an absolute numpty, he can't even finish pre-alpha on the first game he released over 5 years ago... the first issue is this game is being devved on unity.

@@denverfirebuff Phasmophobia is a good example of how shit Unity Engine is. The game's fun but has never-ending jank and bugs no matter how many patches the devs put out.

@@shane1039 you do understand that game engines have nothing do to with how good a game is? Developers have full access to modify the engine. It's up to the developers to make a good game.

@@denverfirebuff Umm what, do you hear yourself its unreal engine 5 plus the only reasons why the lag is the amount of animations the tripods had when they were moving because he was using some form of raycasting for the legs so they would step in perfect unity with any object that had contact with.

@DanDeMan Bro. Let them work and get past pre alpha. If it's shit after its been out a bit then hate on it. Not before

That’s awesome!

Starship troopers mod when?

@@Osean_Kitty No idea of release date but there's already trailers for the game and such and not a mod, there's mods for the game SQUAD that let's you play starship troopers with other players but it's kinda buggy

@@edgaral Hehe, buggy

A KID? 🤤

I think they're called "Redditors" :P

Howdy

@@myopinionisalwaysright1565 Howdy.

Same. I would imagine them towering over buildings in the distance. Far enough to hide from them, close enough that they would be near me soon.

This is a movie that needed a game just like this one for almost 20 years now. Us basically going though everything that Ray (Tom Cruise) went through in the movie is both exciting and terrifying. I can't wait for this game to come out.

Same here man

Or a well placed shell/rocket blowing off a leg, causing it to faceplant

@@mysoupistoohot yes, that to.

​@@mysoupistoohotlol yes!

Musical sound clues like L4D would be awesome to have. I don’t know if others would like it as much as I do

Those dreams are the most stressing and scariest ones

Bro, in my nightmare tripods was so blind

Had one myself where no matter where I was, these things would eventually come.

@@DAV_333 whats funnt is ive had over 20 dreams about this movie, and one i deadass was a tripod

@@doge3058 Nothing funny

multiplayer is a last man standing they shouldnt have made that option which means the game is only good for singleplayer

Multiplayer and horror don't mix.

@@Skrenja if implemented properly, they mix quite well.

Actually I believe he plans to have that. There is already in game voice which the Tripods can and WILL hear. So I imagine it will be like dead before daylight and other horror games that implement stealth and hidding tactics. The noisy people will get snatched up first.

Yeah they stated that in multiplayer the tripods can hear your mic So you should better whisper with ur friend lol.

multiplayer would be fun as heck, everyone playing as tripods killing stuff, or all of us running around surviving, and maybe even an option for both so you got like one of your buddies playing as one of the tripods while everyone else is running away.

I don't think the gore would be appropriate, since the heat rays (not "lazers") just vaporize people outright. But I do agree some sort of objective system, at least for the first day, would work. It could be a sort of "soft tutorial", where you're free to ignore it or follow it as you wish, like "escape the area" for when the Tripod first attacks, but then once you get to a safe-ish point, then your character internally monologues. Something like "I need food/water/a weapon", or when nighttime falls, "I need somewhere safe to sleep", and then when you've survived the first day, "I need to find help." This would serve as a non-intrusive and natural-feeling way to teach the player the fundamentals of gameplay while still keeping in line with the sandbox core feeling of the game.

@@HelghastStalker you're right, gore wouldn't cut it, rather a similar effect as portrayed in the movie, so the laser vaporizes people. Still visual effects for explosions, fire and lasers need lots of work. They're certainly on the right track! And yes some non-invasive objective would be good!

@@KevinS47 I think they shouldn't just vaporize humans, but also maybe show where cars are melted *and* where buildings caught fire and/or collapse. The destruction needs to be a little more intense and long lasting...maybe let the heatrays leave permanent scorch marks alongside persistent destruction?

Its not gonna go anywhere, flipswitch games dev is an absolute numpty, he can't even finish pre-alpha on the first game he released over 5 years ago... the first issue is this game is being devved on unity.

​@@denverfirebuffshut up and leave

@@denverfirebuff they changed it, it is not unity anymore

I agree

I was hoping we could see a couple aliens crawling out from their defeated tripod.

If you're looking for an incredible immersive horror game, try Alien Isolation. Straight up masterpiece

@@N.E.TGaming I’ve played that one before it’s great but WoTW for some reason terrifies me so much more.

@@lianhorvat5744 game aint scary lol

play amnesia the game doesent need jumpscares to be scary

Omg same,I’ve been having nightmares from that movie for years

i start running on its arm defying gravity before i leap to its head and start ripping its system out this game is gonna be easy i think idk i never watched the movie

whats an uberpod .. how many kind of tripods are there bro

@@IrtazaUmer fighter,harvester,uberpod aka leader of em

​@@player70477metal gear rising

What about fighter jets?

@@johncarter6675 I wouldn't want to be a fighter jet pilot against the kind of weaponry the tripods pack. It'd be a death sentence.

​@@Rellana1while their shields are fearsome, their little arms with the actual beam move quite slowly. It would be pretty hard for the tripod to actually hit a jet, assuming they don't have other weapons like missiles.

LOL!

That montage will never end.

Good news for you IT WILL BE FREE!

I'm getting me a computer just for this game :D

@@TartarusTheMartianAkaLau one we don’t know that and two please no fake information

@@fem298 since the tripod design is copyrighted by Steven Spielberg he has to make the game free or it will be taken down

@@fem298 not faking info. Its info that has been said MANY times, the guy above me explains why

i read the description of the game and it says mulitplayer is a one last man standing while the tripods attempt to kill everyone i dont like that idea which means multiplayer is bad

Hey don’t call too soon! This team clearly are even bigger nerds about the movie than we ever could be, they’re the perfect hands to put this project in! It’ll have everything you can think of I’m sure.

Not even alpha it's pre-alpha gameplay

And the humans...

He took it personally

good idea

Your advice will save this game, no doubt /s

I think the brightness is fine. Everything else I can agree on

There's no such thing as a "tactical sprint".

Did you not see those mini tripods inside the house?

Man I miss Halo 3.

@@SherProductions11 so do I.

@@YoRHaUnit2Babe i still play Halo Infinite, but now I am waiting for war of the worlds. We should team up together

And those animations tho

Agreed
