Deus Ex Reborn

Cool idea, but most cool mods take several years before they're released or they're never released at all.

Yep, shame they had to close Ion Storm 🙁

Ion Storm made a lot of trash too. It was only Warren Specter's team that turned out anything remotely good.

There were two different Ion Storms. You're thinking of John Romero's Ion Storm, right? They were actually a separate company from Warren Spector's Ion Storm (or something like that), despite having the same names.

No, they were the same company, they just had 2 seperate studios. Warren Spector's (Thief 3, DX2), and John Romero's (which closed much sooner than Spector's did)

 
i loved thief 3 and theif 2 in the beginnings of the game...but then i hated how the storyline got all unrealistic with living dead and robots, plus they were kinda hard...would be nice if they kept the realism, like you have to steal so you can pay your rent, those kinds of things...also hate how the engine like deusex 2 where your in small loading cells...boring
 
We plan to make the game more challenging in some areas and force the player to consider their options instead of running up and slicing everyong to death(our apologies in advance to the dragon's tooth fanatics).

Bastards. :laugh:

Specifically the new engine has made a co-op play option very easy to implement and the other forms of multiplayer much less laggy.

Co-op play? RIP storyline. 😛

Crapola.
One of the best ways to deal with some of the harder stuff late in the game was activate Speed, combat strength, and maybe invisibility or radar invisibility and then run up real quick hacking and slashing.

It wasnt unbalancing since it could only be done effectively against one enemy.
Any other ranged units in the area could still give you trouble.

I also learned after the first run-through that upgrading melee was much better than pistol or heavy weapons.


As for the storyline, I hope they dont screw with it too much.
Thats the most important detail of turning a decent game into a truly wonderful computing experience.

you thought the Zombies in Thief1 were realistic? 😛
the old Dark Engine SUCKs [period]

Thief3 is a great game as is DeusEX-IW . . . they both suffer from comparisons to the Originals and due to limitations of being platform ports.

They also have massive Fan-made Mods for textures and mods to make them play more like the Originals.. . . go to llg forums i linked to above.

Thief3 has the BEST horror level of any game - Shalebridge . . . and the rest of the story is as good as the original.
:thumbsup:

TX2 is also available as the BEST fan-made 8-level expansion pack for Thief2 . . .
:thumbsup::thumbsup:

can't agree

they fit perfectly with the Story. 😉
 
that part of the story was what made having robots and zombies in 16th century theif theme kinda retarded in my opinion...ok i'll give zombies to it as a fantasy type thing...but robots in a time where swords are the only real weapon? cmon now..just dont think a game like thief should be too far into the fantasy realm, no farther than what grand theft auto is anyway

WTH are you talking about? Don't you know the Story? 😛

it isn't set in Earth's 16th century . . . it is a world of Magic and Mechinists. . . and you get a lot of weapons that clearly 'match' . . .
:Q

i guess fighting Demons in Doom3 on Mars with material weapons is much more realistic.
:roll:
 
dont play doom 3...all i said was thats the part of the storyline that drew me away from the game and why i stopped playing it but really liked the beggining 1/3rd or so of it, regardless robots have no place in alcemy nor magic, thats more like weirdo anime fantasy stuff but remember its just an opinion so dont worry bout it
