Death Cargo

Other international sites besides Kotaku are covering it? Any link?

lol if they have game assets they can knock up a trailer quickly by just animating the models, that doesn’t actually mean the game exists. The only thing that can prove the game exists is when those 5 days are up and Kotaku download, install and play the damn thing.

If they release a trailer (which I doubt) it would probably consist of more footage from the beta and any fatality footage they have. The reason I mention fatalities is that they can utilize video footage manipulated by After Effects, so they don’t actually have to engineer the footage into the game, they can just take pieces of it and edit it together with whatever rudimentary gameplay they have.

damn should have checked all the common rent a coder online type sites to see if any italian videogame companies were looking for programmers :lol:

I think there was a Italian article on it here: http://multiplayer.it/notizie/131649-death-cargo-kotaku-ha-pubblicato-un-resoconto-per-mettere-in-dubbio-lesistenza-del-picchiaduro-italiano-death-cargo.html

That’s assuming that they have the money to afford a programmer.

Ah, the one i cited above. I thought maybe IGN o Gamespot covered it.

i assume they at least know about it, but won’t cover it until monday’s release (if it happens).
i’m gonna be rolling on the floor if they push the date back… i can’t even think of any excuse they could give.

I imagine that the guys at Necrostorm are either (A) in full panic mode and scrounging to create anything that even resembles a finished game or (B) getting ready to close up shop and hit the road. Most likely start a new company and resume the filming of cheap splatter flicks.

“Technical reasons.”

More likely they will somehow blame it on the negative press they have been getting which has caused them to be extra busy dealing with legal stuff and harassment, but there are still 6000 people with the game, they are just being loyal and not showing any screenshots/videos/reviews/unboxings/etc. because they don’t want to (somehow) cause more trouble for Necrostorm. I mean, everyone knows if you post media of a game online that doesn’t have a trailer, the game creator risks jail time. This is global law 101.

Honest question. Aside from the lack of any visual proof of the game existing, has anyone seen any discussion of the gameplay on any forums anywhere (not the beta, but the final game)?

Apart some posts on the Necrostorm forums, i haven’t seen anything pretty much anywhere.

Nothing at all. Seems like they’ve been avoiding the forum themselves recently. Wouldn’t be surprised if they’ve either a) jumped ship or b) are scrambling to come up with their “plan b”.

Well, i think there is nothing to do but wait another… 29 Hours (7 PM here in Italy) to know what will happen.

I kinda see tomorrow set-up like a 24 Season, slowly running out of time XD

Most anticipated finale EVER! :rofl:

I just got the mental image of the Griswold’s standing outside in the snow, doing a drum roll, while Clark plugs the extension cords in.

23Hours, 59 Minutes remaining

So hype for this. Whatever it’s gonna happen, it was fun to follow this.

Outside of their own forums from newly created accounts, no.

I would love to stay up and post [n] Hours remaining every hour, to be honest. Too bad i can’t since i’ll be busy tomorrow morning and may even lose the Official Release of the Trailer (still, noticed just now they say “updated trailer” on the Facebook Game Page, lol.) ifit happens in the morning.
