Syndicate was always a shooter, perspective doesn't change things much.

That XCom game is shaping up very nicely, all those monkeys who were trolling it just because of its name will stop doing so hopefully.

I have to admit that most of my memories come from Syndicate Wars, but that was definitely not just a shooter. But I guess we've seen third person shooters tackle tactics before, perhaps Syndicate will attempt to keep true to the franchise. Still--What a gross simplification of the facts. It was actually pretty damn unique.

Does the new Syndicate have similar tactical gameplay as the original and Wars?

Having not played them I can still guess with a resounding "not really".

I am going to take these reboots as something completely different to the originals and as new IPs, I think it will stand up better that way.

That said, Fallout 3 didn't really suffer from becoming a 1st/3rd person shooter, I think that was carried on the strength of its story telling and narration though.

I don't know. Syndicate was a unique game, a shooter with isometric perspective and some tactical depth, however there were a bunch of 1st/3rd person games that offered more tactical gameplay, eg. Rainbow Six 1-3. Syndicate was no X-Com or Jagged Alliance. Even if they do not recreate the gameplay mechanics, not much will be list in the process. However, its 4 player coop campaign is supposed to have remade missions from the first game, so I guess at least that part will be somewhat similar.

Nowadays gamers would be owned in first few missions in both xcom and syndicate ( not to mention awesome jagged alliance ).
How do You understand "remade missions" ? They will just make similiar objectective and hope that oldskool gamers will jizz. Its just milking the legendary franchise and other devs will follow. I can already imagine new Baldurs Gate as TPP hack'n slash with cover mechanism, sneaking in Sam Fisher style and of course HUGE quests markers to make everyone happy.

Some new stuff about the game: http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/201...

Graphics looks kinda shitty to me but I'll wait and see how it actually plays.
