MercurySteam confirmed that Raiders of the Broken Planet supports crossplay, even though Sony denied it for Xbox One as usual. They've also revealed technical specs for Xbox One X and PlayStation 4 Pro.
Spacelords (previously known as Raiders of the Broken Planet) is a multiplayer online asymmetric adventure where you fight the invaders by teaming up with other Raiders, or turn the tables and storm into battle with those invaders fighting at your side!
"These SpaceGuilds can even be formed up by cross-platform players, with Steam users allying with PlayStation 4 players, or with Xbox One and Windows 10 players." Sony hasn't done anything 😥
The Spanish studio on its failed business model for Raiders of the Broken Planet, and its rebirth as Spacelords.
Castlevania lords of Shadow was amazing. Mercury steam are at the same level as ninja theory, I think MS should think of acquire them and get them working on a hack and slash game.
why not come up with something genuine, something fresh. something that is going to convince people to buy your product at full retail price instead of having to resort to shady f2p-trickery?
oh, i know, that is difficult and involves some real effort. well, life is hard. *shrugs*
Good they learned their lesson the hard way hopefully now we’ll get quality titles from them.
Spanish developer MercurySteam is relaunching its third-person-shooter Raiders of the Broken Planet as Spacelords and removing all price barriers.
It should've been f2p and focused on cosmetics from the start. I'm just glad because the game has AAA quality production. Mercury Steam is a great developer who never made a bad game in my book. With this though, they screwed the monetization and grind factor. AND please for the love of God fix the annoying sound after you shoot which reminds me of Killzone and get ANYONE who knows decent English to do the dialogue instead. Also remove the image of the guy talking to you because that's just bad.
Mechs? Cyborgs in mechs?
If such is in the actual game, there are segments where you pilot mechs, all I can ask is: why haven't I heard of this before now?
Great news all around!
"True 4K Gaming".
Barely above Ps4 Pro in resolution though 😂😂😂
"The Xbox One X runs the game at 1440p resolution, with a target performance of 60fps.
The PS4 Pro runs the game at 1260p resolution, with the same target performance."
So Xbox One X will run this game at 60 FPS.
Lightwork for the beast.
I guess it is because this game is focused on multi-player, they did allow the choice between 4K30 and 1440p60 on the X1X.
I don't see the link to a source about this being Sony's fault that there's no cross-play between consoles so can anybody provide that? I'll happily read and accept if it's there.
Next up it mentions that cross-play is only available separately between XB1/W10 and PS4/Steam. Now people have tried using theoretical reasons as to why it's good for the future of games and that multi-player games will not die as quickly with more platforms.
So if that's true and people are actually sincere about it and not just concern trolling as usual, then where is the huff and the concern about Microsoft not putting all their first party games on Steam? Most of them are multi-player and most will die a lot sooner unless they get a larger player base via Steam. But we all know know that it's a business decision from MS. So I'll ask, why is MS not doing that? It's about the same theoretical reason as people that are being dramatic about Sony not enabling cross-play between more platforms. Plus we all know how particular MS is about cross-play and where they decide it's not worth it for their audience, just like Sony decides what cases of cross-play is good for them.
