Polish studio Techland (Chrome, Call of Juarez) unveils Warhound, their new FPS on PC and Xbox 360, and offer us three gameplay videos. Even with Crysis in mind, the graphics are very impressive. The gameplay, not so much.
Finally posted on front page it does look indeed awesome graphically not much shown of gameplay. But i expect a big improvement and touch up come release date but good signs so far. :)
to many shooters, theirs what 5 or 6 rpg's on their way theirs 3 rts's theirs a dozen sport games 4 or 5 racing games, and all of the above are top notch and from what i can tell theirs 5 or 6 fps's im not including sequels im talking different ip's
its not that their arent other types of games, its just the fact is press seems to like to talk about fps's battling it out lol, personally im more an assassin's creed, bioshock, alan wake, lost odyssey and forza 2, cc3 and halo wars :) ya ya theirs a bunch others but those are my biggies hehe
As for this game it looks darn good :) though i wish they'd give it a different spin story wise.
Engine is spectacular but the gameplay needs somethign to hook gamers.
The sound overall is just horrible. Footsteps and bulletimpacts. Graphics are good though, but as many have said before; I wish they would come up with something less cliché.
i think it looks pretty promising actually. Don't understand what you guys are moaning about, really.
Don't know if the lot of you played CoJ, but it actually had some neat gameplay points. It wasn't the best game ever but for now I'll give Techland the benefit of doubt.
Does anyone else get fraustrated that they still use crappy walk sound effects that predate half life one =/
Crysis looks much better, and runs much smoother! And the AI dont stand around waiting for you to shoot them, or stand next to rocks thinking thats enough cover, they cant even aim lol
I agree also, does the 360 really need another fps, this just looks like one of those games that will be quickly forgotten about. Nothing really interests me from the footage so far.

I'm a shooter/FPS fan, so I'm not against another shooter.. But it has to be original, not another straightforward military-like or commando-like type of game, we already have plenty of those on the Xbox 360.. But it will probably sell well anyway because the Americans and we Europeans just love to shoot and blow stuff up.. And most developers just make what sells, and shooters sell (on the Xbox 360), so..
And I have to say, this does look very nice.. Looks a bit like Far Cry/Crysis..

I dont like the feel or look of the game. It is not a graphical mastpiece nor does it look fun to play.
The game is not done as yet, they got about 1 year or more before the game is release, if this is how the game looks when release i won,t buy it, but i now they will put alot more into the game before it launch.
Its beeing played with a mouse though so its complete and utter BS what comes to our expectations of the visuals. Until we get to play it ourselves its just another Vistaloving PC fps running on a monster rig.
The second vid might be with a pad or hes just trying to make it look like a pad.

Looks promising but not at 12fps on a console.
Thats true. I know Blim is always doing his best, but putting videos of a PC game running on a monster rig doesnt help us xbox 360 owners at all because it only raises our visual expectations for a game which most likely wont look like that on the 360. According to gamespot all these videos belong to the PC version only. Maybe Blim didnt know. One way or another, it gives us an impression of what the game is about.
PS: Note that I am not blaming Blim for anything, or being ungrateful, I admire Blim, but is just that I hate to be dissapointed when I get my hopres high for a game running on a monster rig, to only get the downgraded version in my 360 or my not so great PC.
