Good to see there are crates. Yes, even ones covered with a green tarp. And is that a barrel I see peeking in?

Comparisons between this and Far Cry are inevitable, but this is starting to show promise I think. Looks like it's come pretty far since it was actually called Xenus.

Hopefully the elements of the game that aren't directly tied to good looking screenshots are good as well. (Enemy AI, story, solid controls, good sounds and weapons, etc)

It's always interesting to see how other games render the same weapons . I've seen the same weapon span across CS, Splinter Cell, SoF2 and Far Cry and R6 but act and sometimes look completely different.

Just popped in my mind when I saw that "bullpup" looking gun in those screens.

Woah what's with the megaphone, microphone...looks kinda neat. Glad it's not just another "there's a bad guy, shoot him"...maybe it's got a story.

What was that red liquid in a jar...home made chemical warfare!?
