Guess they saw the sense in actually making a superhero game. Neat allusions to the Saints too, I suppose. Dunno about the character designs...

I marked out for the Saint's logo at the end.  The game is set in the same universe.  Guess the Saints will be bad guys.

Volition has proven themselves to be the masters of making open-world games fun, so they've already got my money for this.

DAY ONE.

Is this an exclusive? I'll buy an Xbone for this if I need to.

Imagine letting the Suicide Squad loose in a futuristic version Seoul, Korea and you’ve got one foot in the ballpark.

"Street gang" and purple near-saints logo isn't the only prior Volition reference. It says Ultor under the guys she's talking to.

Thinking about it...I think this may be the case for me as well.  I didn't play SR1 (didn't like the demo), but I played the shit out of SR2, SR3, and SR4.  SR4 wasn't as good as the other two, however, and then Gat Out Of Hell was so mediocre that I quit playing it.  SR3 was the best one, easily.

EDIT: Crackdown!  Forgot about that game.  Played through that, too.  Have never finished a GTA.  They always got boring so quick.

If it stays in Korea, this seems super like a spiritual sequel to Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction more than anything.

I loved that game.

Man, the sequel was buggy-as-hell.

Ehhhhhhhh not sure if want. That gameplay looks pretty bland.

Oh, shit. It's not open-world?

It is a team-based shooty game, and it looks like it may be missions in an open-world...

It's single-player only.

Does it not even have Saints Row type co-op?

This could be, like, Fuse with a different skin, going by the gameplay.

How can you have a team-based shooter without multiplayer?
:confused

Can we get some confirmation on this?  Doesn't sound right.

"Team-based" was the wrong word to use because it implies MP. You control a team, but only one at a time, and you can hot swap between members at any given time. Or at least that's how it appears in what I watched of the video. It doesn't look very good.

"Hero" shooters are the new MOBA/Tower Defense. Unless you're a big name (Blizzard) or already known for something else (Gearbox/Borderlands) (Volition/Saints Row), don't bother.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

For real. Gaming trends the past decade or so have really gotten shitty. MMOs, then MOBAs, then Hero shit. Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the market.
