ummmm....yeah ...same ol? -.-'
i just wasted 20 minutes for what?....everything mentioned was already known -.-'
btw i really dont see an improvement or even equal to jackies darkness powers from the first game why?...one example would be rip off car doors what about if i wanna trash somebody with an entire car? since that was easily doable in the first game -.-' hope this returns ,and as she said what weve seen up till now barely scratches the surface .....i sure hope so cause im not getting that vibe -.-'
No offense deathnote but I'm really getting sick of you complaining about everything. What's the point even posting if it's always something negative?
Anyway, great podcast guys. That was probably my favourite so far, I had a few good laughs & there were some cool details mentioned. I love the unique feature of manually pumping your shotgun for rapid fire & being more accurate while dual wielding by alternating your shots.
hell its not like theyre giving me something positive to post about atm tbh -.-' you think its all fun and games to me? deffinitely not!
but i gotta point out some things ...
and youve clearly missed the latest video interviews if this was news to you sorry bro no offense -.-'
It's a podcast about weapons, did you really think there would be any startling revelations?Originally Posted by deathnote
I just enjoy kicking back for 15 minutes & hearing the devs talk about the game's features.
ummmm...yeah i actually did? yes perhaps i expected too much out of a podcast xD...-.-'
no comment on the jokes -.-'
well. it was a podcast about weapons, and I think it was nice.
If you think this is redundant you should have been around for Skyrim updates, they only showed a single! A SINGLE !!! video and they showed the same video over and over and over again. even though they could open the endless features of the game.
So 2K is a saint compared to them.
Thanks 2K, please keep up the weekly updates, even if it is repetitive I dont mind.
I know I complain a little, but you know that we all love you right?
p.s. I love everything about the game, the only issue for me its the black hole and how you decided to handle it.
Thanks for the feedback, guys. The podcast is definitely intended to be more of a behind-the-scenes look at the game's development process than a platform to reveal tons of new features; hopefully it's still an enjoyable listen!
If the pods aren't your cup of tea, we got a bunch of other updates in store for the community before launch.
sounds great hope we can expect a ton of updates since the podcast lady said weve barely scratched the surface ...
Heh! That's our very own 2K Elizabeth
yeah thats who i meant forgot her name lolz xD
Crossing my fingers for a demo. Please Jeebus make it happen.
Here's an interesting article featuring Yaron, the creator of the guns in the game. There's also a few new screenshots & some pictures of the weapons at the bottom of the page.

Btw how do you post links inside normal text? Eg. having the link read "Link to page" instead of appearing as a URL?
holy molly! Those boobs were huge!!!! . . . guess now I know where the sexual content rating comes from!
I must be the only one who looked at that picture and actually noticed the gun first.
Anyways, the weapons look nice, and there's a lot more variation in weaponry than the first game, so I actually like this announcement. I just hope the Darkness powers don't get overshadowed by the weapon selection.
The powers are very important. We'll have a podcast dedicated to Darkness abilities airing sometime before launch!
Also: There's a new interview with weapons designer Yaron/LoneWolf to check out!
So now we know there's 12 weapons total? I think the first game had more, but they still look great here. Pity the Darkness guns aren't returning, I loved those.
One thing that doesn't make sense though- the trademark dual pistols were custom made for Jackie & given to him at the beginning of the first game, so why do all the random M1911s in the sequel look like his personalized guns?
Maybe he just grabs ammo?
Or lazy development.
I kid, I kid.
