johnxtreeme Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 The best thing about all the gameplay footage released so far has to be the clearly higher quality cutscenes that the expansion has. Compared to something like Mass Effect, even though the core storytelling isn't much different, the game is far more immersive because objects exist, people actually TOUCH the things they're holding, buildings collapse around you, and cutscenes are not just static. Compare that to SWTOR, where almost all cutscenes are just higher conversations. Even the 'landing/leaving a planet' cutscenes are of a significantly higher quality in ME3, despite the fact that it only came out three months after SWTOR. ROTHC looks to change this. From the ship landing, to the building falling down in front of you, to the skyhook and the 'jumping on a car on Nar Shaddaa' bit, it looks like you've really improved. I just want to say that I've noticed, and it looks amazing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine-Elf Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 I agree. And what's up with the Nar Shadaa moving car thing? Does this mean they're going back to earlier level planets and retroactively making some of the side-quests more...er, entertaining? If so, hip, hip, hooray!

aeterno Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 What naar shadda moving car bit? I do agree however that it looks promising. I hope it's a general improvement not just a one off epic cinematic. Kudos especially to them fixing how ships fly. It may seem trivial but cut scenes of ships taking off and landing in the game now are hilariously bad. Lift vertically off the ground. Move some parts on the ship. Speed off in a str8 line. Terribad lol. Not much effort went into those obviously lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ighten Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Agree these need attention. But can we change the arriving at the planet scene( the one where the low res planet appears the camera shakes and your ship flies through .. It lloks like it was created on a Commodore 64 Agree with the post above; whats hilarious about the ship movement is the whole ship seems to move just so some bits can drop down - but for no real reason other than the code (which obviously places the lowest part in a set place) it ends up moving the ships main body up. Whats the Nar Shaddar stuff .. havent seen it Edited March 9, 2013 by Ighten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metwars Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 the nar shadda part was at the end of the newest makeb video which showed a commando I think jumping onto some kind of car that is zooming through the buildings of nar shadda. It looked pretty interesting. It makes me wonder if some of the quest on makeb storyline will have us going to previous planets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
