Game: APB: Reloaded
okay yeah, I understand his purpose is to inform people about the game, but he comes off like a carny screaming at you to come throw the rings on the bottles.
They're all carnival barkers and snake oil salesmen. That's all spin doctors and PR reps ever have been.
The game looks decent as long as there are 100 people per zone/map it should be a lot of fun. If they cut back and turn it into a lobby style 12vs12 GTA game it'll suck.
The game is awesome but this guy is just making it look bad. . the game speaks for itself it doesn't need some creepy guy in a walmart button up screaming about how amazing he thinks the game is. . geez lol
After hearing this guys grating voice, I feel like I've been raped at a used car dealership. He didn't do justice to trying interest people in the game. The game footage was bad, you just couldn't tell really what was going on.
This game is just a shooter now according to the used car salesman? I thought it was more than that
i am so getting this game asp.. as their the guys who did the gta games i can see it being a lot of fun, its about time we had a decent online shooter, hasnt been one since planetside imo :D
The "death" music can be customized so that when you kill someone, they will hear the music you made. Some are pretty funny such as an Enforcer with "Bad Boys" as their "death" toon or "na na na na naaaa naaaa."
The game is more than just a shooter. The guy playing in this video was clearly just learning the game. There is a lot of action, leveling up, customization and did I say ... action?" It is PvP at it's core from what I gather.
It's GTA Online on the PC. The customization is indeed very deep especially by MMO standards. All I an say about the gameplay is it's different, yet gets my heart thumping constantly. And thats against just one cop, get in a group and the fun multiplies with the mayhem.
making a present time mmo is still looking stupid. wait for graphical and artificial intelligence developments or go on with elves and dwarves. sorry guysi i can't feel it :(
The game looked good but that guy doing his sales pitch was a laugh. "Its a Action game at its heart, thats what we do, thats what we know." Its worth listerning to just for the rubish he spouts. :)
The rep kills any footage. The shirt needs to be burned. The voice needs to be canned and the footage would be more interesting if it wasn't somebody running around. Hoping for the best however.
A frustrating trailor, the screen doesn't show anything particularly MMO and i can't tell if the graphics are poor or if it is just the video footage. Assuming the latter then I have to agree with previous posters. This clip would appear to massively undersell the game largely due to that annoying carnie. If Samual was this annoying we would not be having to endure such a tortuous 'what will he do with his added power' storyline in Heroes as they'd all have simply run a million miles from him.
From the information i have gathered from multiple sites this game is nothing like "GTA online" it is its own game and you shouldnt assume its just gonna be like gta online untill you try it or you might miss a cool fps mmo.
looks like it will be amazing. I suspect many of the negative comments come from nubs not wanting to let go of their 'i win' overpowered classes and rows of specials that they're used to in other games.
If this game can keep the lag down then it will be epic
that fat guy in the ridiculous shirt needs to shut his mouth for 20 seconds lol
Fri Mar 26 2010 5:10PM ReportHe sounds like an auctioneer at a pig show in state fair...
Fri Mar 26 2010 5:28PM Reportthe jumping was awfull : /
Fri Mar 26 2010 5:32PM ReportThe guy reminds me of the used car salesman from True Lies that Arnold thought was bangin his wife lol
Fri Mar 26 2010 5:33PM ReportReally doesn't do it justice!
Fri Mar 26 2010 5:53PM ReportThe guy's voice is really annoying.
As for the game footage, can't really tell much.
Fri Mar 26 2010 6:05PM Reportokay yeah, I understand his purpose is to inform people about the game, but he comes off like a carny screaming at you to come throw the rings on the bottles.

Fire Michael J. Fox and get a decent camera man.
Fri Mar 26 2010 7:52PM Reportlol... that was too mean. I was just kidding about the camera man.
Fri Mar 26 2010 7:53PM ReportGTA4 still looks better to me. >.>
Fri Mar 26 2010 9:28PM Reportya know his 3 Cs is totally wrong... none of what he ranted about was based on a C...

Sat Mar 27 2010 12:54AM ReportConflict
Customization
Community????????
......player?
but then that would be CCCP :(
Sat Mar 27 2010 2:35AM ReportThere are hundreds of people around him with hundreds of questions. Looks a fair way to answer them all if you ask me :)
The video is showing players playing APB for the first time, so give them a break :)
Sat Mar 27 2010 10:33AM ReportOh and at least it's not another F2P MMO or a Wow clone. The industry needs this.
Sat Mar 27 2010 10:34AM ReportYou can even customize your 'death tune'?
Awesome! XD
Sat Mar 27 2010 11:52AM ReportThe game is awesome but this guy is just making it look bad. . the game speaks for itself it doesn't need some creepy guy in a walmart button up screaming about how amazing he thinks the game is. . geez lol
Sat Mar 27 2010 12:40PM Reportlooks like a mix between crackdown and GTAIV
Sat Mar 27 2010 1:42PM ReportPut that guy on a beach selling coconut milk. But please don't let him shout at everyone on a games convention.
Sat Mar 27 2010 4:59PM ReportI've got a lovely bunch of coconuts, there they are all standing in a row...
And that might be because it's by the people who made the GTA franchise and Crackown, d0no.

Sun Mar 28 2010 5:36AM Reportsoooooooooooo basically this is a copy of Grand theft auto but you get to shoot at other people that are online.
bit lame but willing to see how it turns out.
Sun Mar 28 2010 5:35PM ReportYes its a GTA copy basicly, A online shooter were gangs can also controll the streets to a degree.
Its fairly heavy whit instances, (city zone "name" * x 100 player instances) but it works out nicely.
Just dont go into the game thinking its a open world(city) mmorpg. Its not.
Mon Mar 29 2010 6:41AM ReportTHAT FAT GUY NEEDS TO STFU!
Mon Mar 29 2010 3:43PM Reporti am so getting this game asp.. as their the guys who did the gta games i can see it being a lot of fun, its about time we had a decent online shooter, hasnt been one since planetside imo :D

Mon Mar 29 2010 5:30PM ReportHonestly this video is so bad that it would turn out potential customers.
Mon Mar 29 2010 7:35PM Reportmaking a present time mmo is still looking stupid. wait for graphical and artificial intelligence developments or go on with elves and dwarves. sorry guysi i can't feel it :(
Mon Mar 29 2010 7:47PM ReportAbsolutely ZERO interest in GTA online ..../next
