Aquanox Deep Descent

Post by Daehawk »

Dont get too excited. This is not a 3rd game in the great Aquanox story games. This is a team based underwater shooter. Yeah I dont know what the yare thinking either. Too poor or lazy to make a real Aquanox game I guess. Going for the quick cash. I am sad. But someone may be interested.

Teaser and mp beta fun.....looks like the old Aquanox we loved but isn't. You know all that companies would need to do to have an instant hit game is ask us here at OO. We know what we and others want....being an old classic game series makes it even easier. This is not it.

The pages I checked earlier indicated that there was a single player campaign.

Go read a few previews. Almost all of them mention the single player.

Looks like a space combat game set underwater instead.

That's what the first two were. Somewhere between a space shooter and Descent.

But they had a fun and complete story. They weren't team pvp based. This is. Its been said it has a single player campaign but not a single place mentions it or talks about it and not trailers show it. So if ..IF...if does have something it can call a spc then its probably missions with bots.

Erm ...
4 player drop-in co-op, with four distinct pilots who are all involved in the game story
;)

FWIW, I glanced over a review, and story and characters were mentioned as strong points, also co-op mode works well. Negatives were static fights, stupid AI and graphics that are adequate but not great.
