Syndicate - FPS Reboot Preview

[skytop082]

"Syndicate is bad because it's generic and lacking innovation"

*Gives Call of Duty a near-perfect score*

Gotta love IGN.

[123Kenge]

Best game till Mass Effect 3.

[TheRabbitFear]

review it plox

[MrMachete281]

i didnt like Deus Ex Human Revolution ......Syndicate looks like lots of fun and i am also looking forward to Mass Effect 3

[imacow15]

@MrMachete281 trust me, i got it today and it was EPIC.

[staror890]

Im likeing the skrillex in the back round :)

[hyjk100]

i wonder how would the games be the next year?

[redplague]

I had the original Syndicate but I think it was on the Amiga? I then had Syndicate Wars on the PC but that wasn't as good. When I heard they were doing another one I was hoping it was going to be the same style of game.

[iGatorNation]

Seizor alert.

[SpetnazVanguard]

@amazo88 There is a singleplayer and co-op. No multi

[JeSuisSamm]

0:48 and a nasty sense of humor. *music goes off* this is where we split up. LOL

[TheDarkHadoken]

I actually love the demo and did pretty good, i did find a cheap way to be #1 though and that was keep reviving your teammates and headshots

[HEYWOODxJaBLOWME]

@TheDarkHadoken how is that cheap? it's called being a good teammate.... it just so happens to have ALOT of benefits

[TheDarkHadoken]

@HEYWOODxJaBLOWME well i must be the only teammate thats good then,most of my teammates never reboot or heal me. I played for a long time yesterday and kind of fell out of love with it because i had a bunch of stupid teammates who ran straight into battle at the very end and constantly died instead of working together to take out the hardest dude in the demo. some people were smart but most were just plain dumb who didnt do nothing but die trying to be #1 with ranking.

[TylerTheCreator]

Syndicate = Battlefield 12

[gearsofwarfreak2001]

@TylerTheCreator hahahahahah ya man

[occult702]

chammers

[nerazra]

in 1:05 says argentina but icant understand what dod he say that lol

[KingsOfSkills]

What im playin in the demo is the begging of future games.this game is just beyond fucking awesome.cant wait till Feb.24.2012

[fresapaletosa]

the guy making the commentary is a fucking prick.

the game is good except it doesn't have team death match etc. only campaign and co-op. The HUD is confusing as are the :chips:

[avengedsevenfold2437]

@fresapaletosa that's right

[TylerTheCreator]

@fresapaletosa Well personally, I think EA does this on pupose. I think they want to make another game that involves heavy teamwork without that one guy that is a lone gun.

[TheWaRGFX]

played the demo, didn't care for it really hate the HUD moving but definitely not a bad game, just not my type.

[MrGrave111]

should i get this or the darkness 2??

[avengedsevenfold2437]

@MrGrave111 both of them

[amazo88]

is there a singleplayer in this game or is it all multiplayer?

[911SuperGT]

@amazo88 there is both single and multiplayer , 2 times better than battlefield 3

[hotsox1982]

the demo gameplay and HUD were very fuzzy, is this normal ?? gave me a massive headache but the demo wasnt too bad, fps wise

[FinlandGameTV]

Hey all im Thomas im from finland and im 18 years old.i do commentary videos i have have started 1.2.2012 and have now 132 amazing subscribers so it does look like peoples likes my videos.i know i have still much to improve so thats why im asking you to chek out my videos and tell me your opinion/advice.im using allso Hauppauge HD PVR to record gameplay so quality is good ^^

Ps. if you like funny/weard accent you should chek me because i have kinda funny/weard accent :D

[vladark138]

God it will look good on PC !

[Se7enBeatleofDoom]

Please make a Syndicate RTS in the future....

[Wellaboveswell]

Something about this guys voice tells me if he is the reviewer hes going to slam it

[Rangerwolf447]

You know what would be interesting the opposition can "devolve" you by removing your chips and taking your upgrades in the process

[Mrbaka227]

dunno why,  I thought the HUD is somewhat awesome. Fells like inside Iron Man helmet. haha :D

[ShroominatorSplosion]

Hoping this will be in Australia...

[rootbeermcgee]

@ShroominatorSplosion i heard it got banned, sorry man :(

[TheDarkestSixx]

I don't care how "unique" it is it's still an FPS, seriously people can't we have some good military third person like a proper Socom or another adventure series, since uncharted has seen it's peak. So much possibilities and yet people still make FPS games :(

[PlaystationThree60]

bloody brilliant stuff

[hecklerhouse]

Just played the demo... and it was fuckin awesome. This is the cover system and Co-op gameplay I wished Bf3 had. If this game had destructable environments, it would be GOTY material. Only drawback is the hud is waaay too cluttered.

[sonofkikkoman]

Should have kept it isometric

[PRM702]

f@zerozhack Konami reportedly has a new Contra in the works. Budgeting is supose to be in line with Castlevania LOS.

[SuperEzekial19]

@OurConsciousSkies Fuck off you stupid cunt, thinking your better then people who play COD... Truth is I bet you play it, and I bet you played every other COD aswell so stop acting like a stupid fucking fanboy

[zerozhack]

I Want Contra Reboot FPS or 3rd Person shooter !! Tumbs up if you agree

[ultimatehunter124]

Fuck ign. If its not a game series(cod) they hate. This is a new fresh take on fps genre by deep silver and they are great!!

[P1X3lB1T]

@xkracyxboix101 agreed

[DragONheart27X]

Actually looks good

[xkrazyxboix101]

I love the people commenting "not another FPS game". & get 100 thumbs up. I bet those same people play COD. Clearly you want another FPS if your buying them every year ( COD ), but when a new & original FPS comes out you tear it apart . . . . . then probably go back to COD as if you never implied you had any problem with FPS. Its weird you hate any new FPS game that tries to be different but have no problem with any FPS game that says COD on the box. Hipocrites

[rivalstorm120]

this game is REALLY! fun i love it already and i didnt even play the 1993 version of it.. for the pc

[BatKnight0]

This is the only real way of dealing with buisness.

[TheAronDark]

Some one like me, who played the Classic Syndicate, as a kid... Have this New Syndicate, REALLY High Hopes :)

It must NOT fail ^^

[BlackPlated]

So, they took another game and turned it into an FPS, interesting... /SARCASM.

[mackdaddyninja]

the HUD makes me dizzy.

[BotheredMe]

@mackdaddyninja You haven't played Mirror's Edge, have you? This game felt at home for me.

[SOLACEBOY]

Looks amazing.

[stupidlambo]

just another fucking shooter

[ZebzTAW]

shut up and take my money!

[microfigure2000]

Looks kind of confusing with everything on the screen, but I'll find a way.

[2222lil]

First good FPS in a few years

[ReaperFromROBLOX]

Sounds a lot like borderlands. Which is crazy freakin' awesome.

[000Achmed]

so deus ex w/o the same depth of story?

[Gabensy]

SUCKS DUP-STEP MUSIC

[seriousstoner]

@Gabensy It aint dubstep. It's skrillex shit. Dubstep is awesome. But each to their own.

[Gabensy]

I hate dubstep

For me it is similar .

should be...

Overseer - 'Supermoves'

Black Sun Empire - Arrakis

[seriousstoner]

@Gabensy That Overseer track would of been better I agree. Breakbeat is fucking sick mate. Good call.

[Rick34ize]

this just might be the game that changes FPS

[russianman07]

TOO MANY FUCKING WORDS ON THE SCREEN

[reneisdean250]

I hope this game is successful, because im really getting sick of shooting russians =_=

[AngelusDlion]

@reneisdean250 Here's the thing that bugs me. IF they had called it anything but Syndicate people probably wouldn't be rolling their eyes. I think they've shot themselves in the food before they even started.

[LionHawk1000]

@reneisdean250 LMAO!!! XD

[BattleManiac7]

@reneisdean250 right? why are the russians ALWAYS evil? i want a game where russia is the hero

[8bitheroics]

@BattleManiac7 COD World at war

[8bitheroics]

@BattleManiac7 COD World at war

[Arthirable]

@BattleManiac7 Red Orchestra 2? World at War...? Not that hard to find...

[MrDakadaka]

@reneisdean250

If it makes you feel any better you can kill American terrorists in rainbow six patriots but out of curiosity who would you want to shoot at alien, robots or other unspecified targets. 

[boobyricky50]

@reneisdean250 Uh just asking was that a cod joke?

[theisoganders]

@reneisdean250 lol...^^'

[byerscm]

i am on the internet everyday

[byerscm]

and why haven't i heard of this game?

[DirePyre]

Now this... ....this looks like a game that can compete with Skyrim

[icefire4114]

bulletstorm point system, borderlands co-op, deus ex gun and gameplay, i like it...

[emi777emi]

it looks AWESOME.. BUT.. the HUD... not so much

[vandentify]

@emi777emi You're not kidding- it takes up half the screen, and is constantly jiggling around. My eyes!

[leemarvinuk09]

Looks interesting...

[Danistheman180]

so is this Brink with Deus Ex?

[NWNisFUN]

The Co-op looks fucking awesome. I hope this doesn't suck.

[NickH787]

that seems like an awful lot of shit for a hud

[renanherz]

this looks like deus ex

[KennyRobinson74]

This looks like the most awesomezt Shit! :D imma get it

[CopelliProductions]

damn this game makes Halo and Crysis look like Duke Nukem Forever xD

[byerscm]

@CopelliProductions ya i was disapointed with that game XD

[Mudoglav]

aspari=atari lol

[giofangsteel]

good God that hud gives me a headache.

[MSDjMichaelSlash]

The "Pyramid" on the chips. Damn, they're everywhere

[TheDashal1]

If you're planning on downloading the demo please wear a headset! It turns it from being a "chaotic free for all shooter" into a stategic shooter.

[Quirrelq7]

@TheDashal1 or get surround

[raphaelo1234]

@TheDashal1 Gotta agree on that. Except most people I get matched with don't have their headset on and it sucks. But when I play with friends, its a blast. Wish only the demo mission was longer :(

[mapomonster]

The only good thing about this was Skrillex.

[calebt1000]

@mapomonster GTFO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[seriousstoner]

@mapomonster Skrillex is shite. Listen to some proper dubstep. Or better more some Drumstep. For your information this game looks fucking SICK!

[mapomonster]

@seriousstoner Did i ever say i only listen to Skrillex? No, and by the way just because someone is mainstream or in other words succesfull doesnt mean hes bad. Learn the definition of the word opinion.

[seriousstoner]

@mapomonster I never said that hahaha, and don't talk to me about what is mainstream and what is not. I studied at a sound engineering college and I had to do a whole section on popular culture and other genres so don't give me that shit. Skrillex is so damn plain. All of his stuff sounds the same to me. There you go that's why, in my 'opinion', he's shit. But yes you are right, everyone has a right to their own opinion. Just a shame there aren't many that agree with you...

[TheAlphaKiwi]

It looks like a more gory brink, EPIC

[calebt1000]

@TheAlphaKiwi lol they're two completely different games

[chillednshit]

Looks fun actually.

[FluxAlive]

Skrillex

[ZeroSumJ1]

Those two comparisons were so pretentious. Lol. Like everyone watching this knows what it means if it's between those two books.

[gamemaster1385]

I got the demo and played with some friends and this game is fucking awesome

[HorrorFan382]

This Game Looks Cool And All But I Have Feeling It's Gonna Be Another Brink Looks Cool At First But When You Play It It Sucks I Hope I'm Wrong Because I Love The Original Syndicate.

[calebt1000]

@HorrorFan382 NO no.... its a good game play the demo :)

[Enjoi68]

I like how you can have 2 scopes on a gun and turn the gun sideways to use the red dot

[SuperNextgengamer]

looks good

[bigmacmankb]

If only they released the demo for the PC -_-

[pixelmagic777]

@bigmacmankb It wasn't.

I bet have a poster in their offices that says "Remember! Pirates can open anything!"

[sparky123dot]

Is the demo on PC?

[FUN61S]

full metal jousting:holy shot coolest ad

[JimmyThaCrazy]

Do you have an option to stealth like in Deus Ex Human Revolution?

[Civilkarnage]

The demo felt like a joining of crysis and deus ex. I can not wait till it comes out.

[NikeMan4life]

I think its gonna suck. I hope Im wrong though

[petrov32]

Wait.....THIS isn't the review......THEN WHY IS THE TITLE 'Syndicate - FPS Reboot Preview'?

[Zerokaiser00]

@petrov32

Review: the evaluation of a movie, song, video game...etc

Preview: An EARLIER view to show the movie, song, videogame before distribution.

Here's a cookie for you.

[emiemioo]

@petrov32 You.. You don't know what preview means?

[cookieraider126]

looks like brink....

[dead7dude]

i just played it, i think it sucks ass

[OurConsciousSkies]

@dead7dude Let me guess, you play CoD?

[cookieraider126]

I thought this was about the syndicate project

[D0pam1n]

1.) Create a generic First Person Shooter

2.) Buy the licence of a classic Video Game and slap its name on your game

3.) ?

4.) No profit

[CamisCool12345678]

Demo was awesome for PS3

[unclesam246]

Looks crap

[UnburnableCow]

Does anyone else think this games gonna end up like brink?

[GOLDMATT123]

@UnburnableCow what looking really cool and ending up as crap

[boons50]

@UnburnableCow it better not i swear if it does

[sikuaka2]

@XcelentTom call of duty 1 to world at war are the best fps's of all time thing went bad in mw2

[DKW102090]

Just played the demo, and I love this game!

[ZachWild1123]

If deus ex and battlefield 3 had sex, syndicate would be their baby

[a80a80a80]

Visuals look great

[badborat]

@Ghostkiller5555 i totally agree :)

[GunGuy0]

netflix by blinking eyes would be bad ass!

[JaTochNietDan]

Day one buy for the PC, no doubt.

[jaaki94]

doesn't really look like deus ex at all.. save it takes place in the future and you shoot peeps..

[mazdaplz]

@jaaki94

oh really and what about the head chips/implants? and how about those camera angles from behind the shoulder when you assasinate someone? what are you blind? or you didn't play human revolution? the clothes are similar too. but that's kind of a given because in the first syndicate clothes were also dark and modern

[boons50]

@mazdaplz the "assassinations" are melee moves and im pretty sure theyre in first person

[ikecan93]

@mazdaplz you are an idiot. this game has probly been in develupment for 3 years and pre develupment for 2. there is NO way they would have known about human revolution.

[kingdomc0mes]

@jaaki94 man you aren't clever.

deus ex and syndicate are very similair.

1. the rpg style

2. clothes

3. the futuristic timeline

4. working for an corporation

5. variable playing style (stealth, aggressive, tactician etc.)

6. Chip/Aug

want more?

[calebt1000]

@kingdomc0mes lol did you know syndicate came first :D

[kingdomc0mes]

@calebt1000 yes i do

[testoftetris]

@jaaki94 dude, Syndicate is heavily like Deus Ex, especially in the story department. Both are about rival tech companies going after each other in violent, war-like methods.

[Ghostkiller5555]

gotta say .. nice review voice ...

[roms3]

A SINGLE PLAYER DEMO IS NEEDED.

[TravisChristel]

This game is really, really good.

Starbreeze know how to make an FPS.

[03sho]

Looks good but there's just TOO MUCH stuff on the screen at one time.

[Xzefreeman]

WHY YOU NO MULTIPLAYER?

[kingdomc0mes]

@Xzefreeman there is at least a co-op campaign so no brag. you can now play 'deus ex human revolution' with your friends.

or are you just FOREVER ALONE :P

[kingdomc0mes]

and btw if you can enjoy the co-op mode you can also enjoy the multiplayer of BF3 ^^

[Xzefreeman]

@kingdomc0mes *HUGS* i luv you!

[jamends1220]

Why the fuck is this game not on Steam?

[xcoolxlt]

@jamends1220 Because it is EA's game and EA hates Steam.

[eppapa1]

why there no multipayer?! (except co-op)

[ronladbreenio]

its pronounced omage dickhead

[hinbow]

I'm playing the demo right now by myself, isn't that fun playing a recommended 4 player mission by myself and it just froze my xbox.

[DPagua]

Lemmings FPS reboot coming fall 2015

[whatjamacallit]

why the fuck do old classics get changed to FPS...

[TheKamanick]

@whatjamacallit Syndicate was never exactly a 'classic'...

[Cimlite]

@TheKamanick

I beg to differ... if Syndicate wasn't a classic I don't know what is.

[Lewiis25]

another fps........ :|

[Jisumy]

Co-op

[Jisumy]

I'm liking the Co open demo alot

[teamhebi13]

what?

[fresapaletosa]

since its from EA will they be using frostbite?

[tratorta]

@fresapaletosa DICE created frostbite, EA is the shitty publisher.

[xImortalSkillz]

I played the demo on both consoles and it seems like a pretty fun and solid game but it only had missions were you and other players fight through ai trying to get the best score if it has versus I can see this game having a lasting fun factor otherwise I think its gonna be fun the first time and then get boring but well see.

[KrazyBean14]

Played the demo...I'm buying it.
