PC Gamer Interview—Hard Reset dev on Call of Duty, cyberpunk, Deus Ex, PC exclusivity

In July, we blew the lid off Flying Wild Hog’s cyberpunk-soaked love letter to shooters of yore, Hard Reset. But—after picking the lid shrapnel out of our charred flesh—we realized something: this isn’t a typical game release. Big-budget PC exclusive? No multiplayer? Nothing about crying behind cover 70 percent of the time? We asked, and Flying Wild Hog founder Klaudiusz Zych answered. Read on for Zych’s thoughts about Call of Duty, Deus Ex, phoned-in multiplayer, PC leaving consoles in the dust, and plenty more. [Nathan Grayson]

Now this is what I call a pc exclusive fps :D Damn I am too hyped up for this game. This is like Uncharted for the pc :D Like how it's a single player oriented game and going to use the full power of pc's ;)

Yeh this is on my "must buy, I gotta have it Day 1, dam I can't give them my money fast enough" list.

Nothing better some Old School Devs making a PC Exclusive. I hope they use Steam and I hope they got their Ferrari's picked out cause it's gonna rain money for them on release day.

" In the world of Hard Reset, a rebellious AI is capable of building enemies from everything it can. Literally hundreds of randomly generated, differently appearing enemies will show up. And as I said, we were inspired by Painkiller, so expect BIG surprises."

Have they released any sales figures?

"Hard Reset is a game that you want to jump on after work and unleash some mayhem. It’s not an interactive movie on rails like most modern shooters."

WOW Hard Reset!!!? Remembering playing this game years ago on my PC never finish it thou, cause it was very buggy still lots of particle effects and pretty looking I hope that gets intact.

update: some particles effects are missing still game the looks freaking awesome, with correct price definitely will get this :D

LifeInNZ3115d ago

Gameplay definitely looks dated but priced right as a PSN title it could provide a brief distraction.

GribbleGrunger3115d ago

Going around killing stuff in first person ... There's a novelty.

Shadow Warrior was an unexpected treat last year for PC gamers. I may go ahead and get it for PS4 anyway just to support these guys.

Activemessiah3716d ago

Flying wild hog are amazing devs with great consumer attitude... pretty much the exact opposite of EA then.

thezeldadoth3716d ago

Shadow Warrior was hands down the best shooter last year. If you don't have a PC that can run it and have a ps4 or xbox one, buy this game. Support the devs and enjoy an amazing shooter with a surprisingly interesting story

This was such a good remake. I picked it up on a steam sale for less than $20. I didn't expect to like it nearly as much as I did. I would suggest you play this game. Its fun, funny, and full of Wang! I also suggest you check out Hard Reset. It was really good too.

Volkama3716d ago

Also bought it cheap because I appreciated the topical jabs at cod and bf in the trailer.

It's a fun game, but I doubt even the devs would say it was "one of the best looking games in 2013".

JsonHenry3716d ago

It looked good without a doubt. But no, not the best looking. Who said it was the best looking anyway?

SteamFirst: Hard Reset Review

SteamFirst: Hard Reset is a sci-fi FPS developed by indie studio Flying Wild Hog. Not only has this developer managed to pack this game full of beautiful textures and effects, but it is also a ton of fun. Hard Reset aims to bring you back to 1993 when the classic game Doom won the hearts of millions of gamers. The game is a wonderful mix of modern technology and classic FPS style gameplay found in other modern games such as Serious Sam. Hard Reset is an easy game to recommend and only faults in its poor story telling and long loading times.
