Title: CoV gameplay video
Post by: eldaec on June 23, 2005, 01:50:06 PM
Available here. (http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/cityofvillains/media.html)

This one doesn't include blasters being asked to pull, or angsty Koreans.

It's a chunk of the walkthrough JE did at E3.

Hmmmm, meh? He didn't really do anything in that video that was much different from CoH. He talked about a lot of shiney, and not a lot of meat.

Only point of note was that there will be 7 pve zones, 4 pvp zones.

PvP zones appear to be rvr king of the hill/siege based. Expect the cool kids to whine on boards about how openfield 8v8 is the only true way to play, but nonetheless the vast majority will enjoy sieges more.

The PvE zones appear to have specific goals included (the video mentions trapping ghosts) that don't involve killing stuff.

Huh.  That guy soloed Mynx like it was nothing.  Wonder if that's actual gameplay that we should expect or if it was changed for the sake of simplicity for the trailer.

In the forum threads, it was a setup deal run at e3 for the press.  No, Mynx will not actually be that easy to defeat.  It was a short mission, with things set up to be easy to impress the press.

It certainly was shiney, tho.  I liked the char damage done to walls and stuff by the villain's fire powers.
