        The game doesn't seem overly concerned with being politically correct, but you make an interesting point. I'm curious if there will be anything toned down or censored in the final build. I know they had to censor sex scenes in Terminator because one of the console vendors refused to approve release. I notice that half the characters are smoking here. You don't realize how sanitized modern media is until you look for cigarettes.

      Supposed to be coming in September, but the closed beta was somewhat buggy, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's delayed.

    I have no idea how this game is going to work out. In order to arrest or shoot do you have to use your invicibility to scan the surroundings and identify probable cause in order to respond? I dont get how the Robocop element is meant to be fun for a game, but I hope it pulls it off.

      It seems inspired by Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, so you walk around hubs with your weapon holstered, and sometimes go into separate areas where combat is allowed.

      You have skills that you can upgrade, and these can lead to non-lethal options for resolving disputes.

      There's also a morality system oriented around Uphold the Law vs Serve the Public Trust. It's not black and white right and wrong, but rather you choose whether to punish people according to the letter of the law or take mitigating circumstances into account. I assume there will be consequences down the road.

        Sounds good actually. If there's one thing that game did right, it's the gameplay over the hubs. It ain't no OG Deus Ex but MD is pretty alright.

        The RoboCop model has to skirt around a few problems with how tall RoboCop is supposed to be, and how he's supposed to animate -- the films cheated a lot. But generally it's a very detailed model. They nailed small but critical aspects like his lips. And Peter Weller is seamless in the role. He's a lot older now, but they've done a great job with the voice modulation and apparently Teyon were really open to having Weller give script notes on what he thought RoboCop would say or wouldn't say.

          Honestly it's kinda cool that this seemingly shovelware developer has (hopefully) found a niche in videogames based off 80s sci-fi shit since you can really feel their passion in Terminator Resistance and how much they love the franchise in terms of all the little things they add.

            OCP psychologist lady has a prosthetic arm, which is an interesting touch. It's not clear if her interest in RoboCop is altogether altruistic, or if OCP are up to more bullshit.

      There's some kind of upgrade system for the Auto-9 that hasn't been seen yet.

      Frick this whole kinda Immersive sim where you can talk your way through encounters is freaking cool for a Robocop game.
      I hope it stays the course for its September release date but as you said the game being still rough and also that month being super fricking busy with things like Phantom Liberty and Starfield. Its super likely it will be delayed.

    The closed beta had about 2 hours of content, spread across three maps. The TV station, the police station, and a downtown area you've seen in official footage like this.

    The funny thing is, this makes the game look way more shooting focused than it actually is. You do shoot people, but the game's structure is a lot more police-oriented.

      Oh so it's more immersive sim than a shooter? That's good to hear

      • 11 months ago
        Anonymous

        You spend a lot of time talking to people, looking for evidence, and basically doing police work. The shooting happens when there's bad guys with guns. I suspect that the devs were probably aware that the shooting mechanics of an authentic RoboCop game are gonna get tedious after a while. But roleplaying as RoboCop holds up for much longer.

          I would caution that it's not really an immersive sim. Yes, you can throw chairs at people. But it's more like Bloodlines than Deus Ex. The game is quite scripted, and it's not sort of driven by emergent systems, being able to flush toilets, turn off light switches, etc.

          Sounds pretty interesting since that sort of open ended exploration shit is what I like and yeah I was worried that they'd just make a shooter which would have been pretty dull given Robocop will just be able to shoot the nuts off any thug he wants

    I think they are one of the few for hire/licensed game devs out here, competent to release stable games on time.

      They're also a really nice studio to work for, according to Glass Door. No crunch, and the only downside is lower pay than other Polish studios.

      I would personally love for Teyon to step outside of licensed IP and remake the original Deus Ex.

        He is kind right, most games use the default light shader, combined with the default realistic PBR settings games end up looking the same, it takes effort and time to make a game look unique these days.

          To illustrate a point, this screenshot right here isn't from Terminator. It's from the new version of Bloodlines 2 by an as-yet unidentified studio. It's not exactly the same, but the vibes are similar in a way that goes beyond "RoboCop is probably influenced by the original Bloodlines". It's the shaders, the approach to lighting. It's by the book.

    I wonder what happened to the VR version of Terminato they were working on. There's been no activity in two years, but they were definitely doing something towards the end of DLC development, and there's a whole bunch of VR assets in the PC version.

    Interestingly, Nacon Malta seem to have the Terminator 1/2 license now, and are doing their own Terminator game.
    >The game takes place in a post-apocalyptic open world and features an original story that builds on the events of the official films. You play as a group of nuclear apocalypse survivors fighting to stay alive in a time period between Judgment Day and the creation of John Connor’s resistance.
    I heard that Nacon sent a takedown message to that Tech Com fan game. Teyon & Reef Entertainment had no issue with it, but Nacon don't like competition.
