BC Gaming: The Conduit Impressions

14
The next stop for The Conduit "hype train" was at PAX 2008, where it was playable at Nintendo's booth. The build shown off at PAX was about 80 percent done. Clearly, this wasn't going to be the final build of the game, as the graphics and textures still needed a bit more polish, but from what BC Gaming saw and played, they were very impressed.

1 - "However, it's a safe guess to say Wii MotionPlus will be brought into the game to create true 1:1 motion and shooting."
actually, according to the ign interview, the HVS team haven't even received the voice chat/ motionplus peripherals yet..

so there really isn't a confirmation for such things

Yeah I listened to that same interview. The devs were really keen though to implement any new things to improve their game, but I don't think 'Motionplus' and wii speak' will be in this game.

I'm very interested though after hearing about the possible Lan option for this, intriguing.

1.2 - actually
voice chat is in the game (wii speak) but not motion pluss because it involves the wii mote AND nunchuck how would that work!??! the motion plus plugs into werethe nunchuck does and it would be really lame if the game said please remove nunchuck and put in the motion plus. :P

Do you have a link, not saying your wrong, but according to the devs, they won't be getting the SDK's until September?

The Nunchuk plugs into the MP add on. Just watch Reggie play the Jet ski game from E3. ... As far as Wii speak being in the game that was announced long ago. Sure they do not have the SDK yet but the game is still 6 months away also. As for M+ it would be a waste of time to wait on it. Conduit uses IR control, M+ isnt needed for that at all.

Isn't this the same game that the devs claimed would put PS3/360 graphics to shame? Hope this game doesn't suck since the hype train is in full throttle. (Yes, I own a Wii and really do hope this game doesn't suck!)

I don't think it was the actual devs saying that, again going back to the ign interview, they of course stated it wasn't going to have the best graphics (in comparison to 360/PS3) but was a solid game nonetheless.

You do know that motion plus can connect to the nunchuck, right? Theres a port at the bottom.

Read the New NP, theres an article about it, and some cool new info on the Conduit, Warioland shake it, and House of the Dead Overkill.

I'm worried about the conduit using Motion Plus.

IR works perfectly for FPS just by itself. If they add motionplus then they should make it optional or having to buy an extra peripheral to play the game may put people off.

And this is the sort of game that needs big sales.
Devs that put in the type of effort that these guys do need to be supported.
