Hellgate London

[Sim]

http://www.hellgatelondon.com/

They say the game is currently being made by former Blizzard employees. More precisely, those who created the Diablo series. Strangely enough, the gameplay is intended to recall the Diablo series ^^

I can't wait for this game, as Diablo 2 was the game I played the most, except WoW. But I still consider the time invested playing Diablo2 was way more rewarding, or "fun" than the time invested playing WoW.

Any opinions about this game?

It will feature instance-like areas, where everyone meets in a big city, and upon leaving, you are instantly teleported in an instance, and this instance's environment shall be created randomly, like in Diablo 2.

It will be a game of massive slaughter, just like Diablo 2! Monsters, alone, are not to be worried with, unless they come outnumbering. You pretty much kill them one-shot.

I was gonna post a thread about the game but I never really felt like it
Either way I'm totally into the game and want to play it so bad, Its hard to wait for it.

 

[Demi666]

omg i will start it when it is realised if its online, any1 know if it will be avaible to play over internet or if it will be solo?

 

[Sim]

It will be playable on the internet, about the way Diablo 2 was played on the net. Just imagine a different battle.net, and instead of a "chat room" and a "Create/Join game" feature, it would be a place, a big city where players meet (just like the chat). Instead of creating or joining a game, you would enter an instance, which would be the equivalent of a "game".

You form groups and play!

THAT LOOKS INCREDIBLE. It is like a mixture of World of Warcraft, Diablo, and Guns.

It seems like a lot of people are leaving Blizzard and making sweet games. Blizzard, a living legend, is like the father of prodigy gaming companies.

Info to you guys about online play. I know lots of info on this game but be in mind.

1. There is free online play which is good.
2. For 10$ every month you can get extra content of many varietys from classes, dungeons etc.

I dont know if you guys have ever noticed this, but quite awhile ago a few people (one from thehelper) went and interviewed a group of employees who left Blizzard...

They formed flagship studios. Look in the top left bar under site navigation. See flagship interview?

Now go to hellgate homepage and look at the bottom... Copyright © Flagship Studios, Inc. 2007. All rights reserved

As far as the game though, Im not very excited

 

[Demi666]

Hellgate: London

It's been a long time since I've seen a game that interested me.

However, this is from the the EX-Blizz group.

"D3" & "GW2" , appear to be the only games on my "Must Have" list.

 

[Rad]

D3? Diablo 3?

This basically is the Diablo 3.

Its the same game type. Up to 10 players per group [Server?], random generated dungeons, fast paced gameplay, hardcore mode. Tons of randomly generated weapons/armor.

The only differences are its in the future, theres only three classes, and its first person

Well I'm sure there will be alot more differences though

Note: Im not 100% on the game settings that I said above thats just what I heard from some beta people

 

[Pineapple]

Three classes? I find that hard to believe.

 

[MasterOfABCs]

They presented only 3, thier are three what you call races "Races"?

Templar, Hunter, and something else.

Each contains it's own classes.

As the video pointed out only the "Templar" classes,

I think it's safe to say that thier will indeed be over 3 classes : D.

But, is this goingot be avalible in America?

All the preorders are for europe.

 

[Rad]

It is no surprise that these sole survivors come from three of society’s most elite factions, each of whom are masters of a robust number of skills and weapons essential to demon-thrashing.

The Templar, a secret society preserving the rites of the original Knights Templar, mix futuristic technology with ancient artifacts to create powerful weapons and armor perfect for short-ranged and melee attacks.

The Cabalists are students of the dark arts and edges of science which often leaves them standing right on the line between good and evil. Their mystifying spells make them suited for mid-range combat.

The Hunters are mysterious, highly trained ex-military operatives who lay waste to their foes with hyper-advanced weapons that blend theoretical science and the latest in technology – and their bullets can come from almost any distance.

They describe them as "Societies", and according to This picture they will have seperate sub-classes

Sweet

And for the preorder thing, of course its available in america! European Preorders, Standard Preorders, IAH Preorders (Asia)

 

[Pineapple]

Canadian Pre-Order?

 

[Rad]
