And even if the 2017 date is not met, I’m sure I’m not the only Timesplitters fan willing to give the dev team as long as they require – any pressure on a team working on the passion for a game deserve patience and compassion. The estimation of the release date does seem optimistic from the outside, but the team working hard behind the scenes obviously know more. There will be support for some modern controllers (explained here by a Dev).ĭo you think we could see a release, as planned, in 2017? I’m sure all Timesplitters fans would be happy with anything, even an ultra stripped down version of the game.
#Timesplitters remake Pc#
Any console release will likely depend on Crytek’s willingness, so just PC on release it seems.After completion of the multiplayer, there’s hope to create further content such as a story mode.Maps somewhat likely to be seen from the start are Compound, Hotel and perhaps Warzone, this is speculation, however (there was also this early video of Training Ground and a slightly more recent one of Streets).The initial release will not include all characters, maps and guns.There are plans to include bots (it is Timesplitters…).A multiplayer experience, either through LAN or online, with between 8-16 players.So, with all that said, here is a brief rundown of what we could expect if (hopefully) Timesplitters: Rewind meets its initial targets:
What can be seen are the models that have already been created, some of which look great, this SBP90: Well, with it being such a small team, information is thin on the ground despite the team’s best efforts to up their interactions with fans in recent months via the team’s new Twitter and Twitch streams showing how content is made. So with a basic understanding of what to expect from the project, where are we? As has been shown in that slightly controversial trailer, the team behind the project are looking at a 2017 release, so what do we know about development thus far? The game will also, of course, feature bots. There is some hope also that the game will feature split-screen if the game gets a Playstation 4 release – something Crytek are thought to be helping with. The game will also feature characters, weapons and maps from all three of the original games, as you can imagine, however, it will be quite the stretch to have all these assets at release, so it’s (future) perfectly possible that your favourite character may be missing for a little. The game will initially be multiplayer only, but with time the team hopes to add the classic arcade mode and potentially more.
#Timesplitters remake free#
Timesplitters: Rewind’s team of volunteers have been working away, with the permission of the IP owners, on a free follow up. However, there is hope, and that is where Timesplitters: Rewind enters.
#Timesplitters remake series#
There was brief hope that Crytek would carry the series forward after they acquired the rights to the franchise, but even hopes for some kind of HD remake seem low. The release of Haze didn’t just greatly, greatly disappoint a young me, it also crushed the studio that created my favourite series, ever. Long story short, the thing that killed any hopes of Timesplitters 4 was the same thing that killed my ability to ever get hyped for a game – Haze. So why has Timesplitters not got a new release post-2005? Well, that’s kind of a long story and one I have covered here. I really cannot speak highly enough of the Timesplitters series, and may in the future do a complete, in-depth rundown of what made them so great, but not today, despite being sidetracked by the will to do so! A deep story mode, complete with timed challenges a challenge mode that could see you doing anything from smashing plates to shooting hoops to blowing off zombies heads and a highly customizable arcade mode, which let you team up with (or face off against) up to three friends over local co-op ( speaking of local co-op…).
Beyond the new approach to the design and aesthetics, the game offered a wealth of content.
