Painkiller: Resurrection Gets Trailer, Gold Status

* Sigh * Just because a weapon from the previous game has made a come back along with some mobs and location do not mark this off as a re hash.

There are shit load of other games that bring back the same weapon, fire ball, locations etc I am not even gona bother make a point?

Why are people even shocked stuff from the previous game are back in this sequal, wtf, all other sequels do this?

Here is what is in this sequal :

-Unique storyline told using top quality "graphic novel" style cutscenes
-Completely reworked "Painkiller 2.0 engine" with shader effects, weather systems, a superb physics engine, and ultra-fast netcode, including an anticheat system
-The best weapons from all of the Painkiller titles + new, inventive tools of death
-Classic-style FPS levels and enormous, explorable areas provide varied gameplay
-4-player co-op campaign
-Countless eSports-grade multiplayer modes with numerous new and updated maps

FYI, the next Halo will have the same guns, mobs, so will Mario, Street fighter, COD, blah blah blah

Some of the new 'enhancements' look alright, but holy moly those models look like ass.

Maybe they should have gone the route of PainKiller-LIVE instead. *thumbs down*

I do love painkiller!

If they keep the movement physics (i.e. bunnyhopping) from the first or even improve upon them (maybe make them a little more QW'ish/complex), and if the shotgun weapon doesn't suck ass this time around (or there's something else to fill that gap) I'll be happy.

TBH, I'd prefer to see People Can Fly doing a new Painkiller...but now that they are part of Epic I don't see them doing anything like it (I actually think if they handed them the Unreal Tournament franchise, a shit load of money/resources, and the freedom to do whatever the hell they wanted...they could really make something amazing...but thats me).

I'm confused. Is it a sequel or a remake?
Same weapons I can understand, But cathedral from the first PK and same mooks..?

The game is using the original "PAIN" engine with very few enhancements (at least thats what it looks like)

Jowood / Dreamcatcher are the cheapest bunch of pricks on the planet. Rather than nurture the IP by investing in new tech and using top notch talent to make a true "Painkiller 2", they go this route.

Whatever happened to the original People Can Fly team? Last I heard they got bought out by Epic to make the Gears of War PC port, but then what?

Would've loved a PK2 from those guys...

LOL Coop, thats really good news :)

WOW, this looks spectacularly shit, even compared to the recent Wolfenstein game.

They should have gotten an award for "Worst Story of the year" because that was pretty damn fail. And the character was horrible.

But who cares about that crap, I liked the game and nobody cares about those things anyway.

But the "improved" things just seem rather shallow.

Dear developers,

I know the game is already done, but please don't make this suck like Overdose did.

It's Painkiller. It's not rocket scientist. I don't need better physics, I just need more crazy shit to kill.

Thank you.

glad they added coop thats the only thing the other ones were missing

Destructible crates count as destructible environment?
