Timeshift Demo

31-08-2007, 04:12 PM

As some of you may know, timeshift was actually near on completion and ready to ship to manufacture around this time last year....

....Only for the developers to scrap the game and use the Havok 4.5 Engine instead!

I've just played the demo and I really enjoyed it, especially when you have to reverse time to get through that collapsed tunnel.

Im expecting this game to score some very good marks once the final product is released. I'll be keeping a watchful eye on this one....

If you have downloaded the demo, let us know what you think of it!

I though a developer scrapped it, and then a different developer aquired the title, and did alot of improvements.

I don't think i'm going to download the demo. There are so many great fps games coming that Timeshift is just not on my radar, and i heard that it's fairly mediocre (demo impressions)

I have to say I enjoyed the demo I am going to keep an eye on this title.

Ditto, although I wonder how multiplayer will be managed, if at all.

yeh I thought that. how are they going to implement the timeshift feature i wonder. i think it would still be a great online game without it, as the weapons are pretty cool especially the crossbow.

It's strange why not many people seem interested in this game. I loved the demo and if the game is half as fun, i'm gonna pull the trigger.

Does anyone have a approximate street date on this? I hope its before the holidays.

I have the feeling that this game will be focused too much on the 'Time Shift' and not enough on the 'game play'.

i played the demo a few days ago. this title was so not on my radar. I was tottally suprized though. It looks to be a quality title. All that extra development time really shines through. It plays smooth, looks great, and keeps a high FPS even through the thick spots.
The time feature is supposed to be in the MP part of the game. I cant even fathom how that will work properly.
I still probably wont buy it, but it will definatly be high on my rent list.

I said the exact same about Bioshock, and after the demo, I bought it. I'm hoping Timeshift proves to be the quality game Bioshock is.

10/30 US Street date I think.

The multiplayer is not going to have the time powers just like the ones in SP. The multiplayer is going to feature "time grenades" that you use to freeze your oppenents of slow them down.

Not quite the same as fast forwarding and rewinding time, but it might be cool. Good looking out, Hollywood.
