What was bad about the beta?
>>
>>340169617

For me, the fact that it was Ubisoft style open world. The linear aspect of the original was what made it most enjoyable, focused level design with great flow as you learned how to best use the mechanics (that weren't locked off by a stupid progression system nobody asked for).

>>340168257

They fucked it up VERY hard. It doesn't even deserve the Mirror's Edge name.

Just stick to the original. EA did it again.
>>
>>340170737
DICE literally had a conference hosted by Anita about how to make games more accessible, and she used Mirror's Edge as an example of an inaccessible game. Not that SJWs are to blame for this tragedy however, if anyone thought that this game would even come close to capturing the magic of the original they were sorely deluded.

If you liked the first game for going fast and improving on times, then the beta gave the impression that Catalyst is just as good as the first (once you unlock the things you need to go fast). If you liked the first game for any other part of it, then the beta was trash.

>>340170279
The focused level design in Catalyst (at least what we saw in the beta) is still great, though. It's all connected by an awful open world, but once you unlock a mission or a DASH you can teleport right to it.

If the open world and skill tree are that much of a deal breaker for you, you could always download a completed save and play through the game with a full skill tree+all locations unlocked. It probably won't take long for one to be out.

Movement felt like it took a step back from the original and you have to unlock shit like this >>340169005
The open world stuff just means there's a bunch of collectibles all over the map for you to pick up really. The game not only runs worse than the original it also in my opinion looks worse too. The combat (I know that's not a reason to play Mirror's Edge) wasn't all that great either. Also some areas couldn't be accessed until you unlocked the grappling hook which annoyed me.
>>
mostly agree with >>340170279
although i'll say that an open world in and of itself isn't incompatible with a game like this.

it's this particular open world that's a problem.

the way the roofs are arranged means there's fairly limited traversal options when moving from one area to another.
the uniform look of the world also creates another issue:
i turned off the new runner's vision when i got in but since the world is so same-y, the classic runner vision objects are spaced so badly, and there are only certain points in the map where you can traverse really large gaps between buildings, i found myself getting lost.

rooftop-only was a terrible decision. if they were going to 'reboot' the franchise they should have gone all the way and given us city streets, enterable buildings, narrow alleys as well as the roofs

super metroid is a game about collecting things, mirrors edge is a game about being fast and doing parkour

it makes sense for one of these games to lock off most of your abilities, it doesn't for the other one

either way if you wanna use metroid as an example everyone got really mad at other M for being linear as fuck and not having any cool collectables but instead the game just gives you them at the beginning of a cutscene because they changed the game, same shit with mirrors edge 2

Yeah, the skill tree is shit, but if the skill point gain is as fast as the beta, you'll max the parkour tree super quick. It's still stupid that you have to unlock things, but if you're interested in running or routing, most of your playtime is coming long after you have everything you need.

Aside from double wall run, you could get every skill you needed in an hour of the beta

One of the beauties of the original ME was that the gameplay was simple - easy to learn yet enjoyable and things like shooting were basically optional and not required to enjoy the game, since the core gameplay was solid.

Locking parts of that core gameplay behind progression absolutely ruins the game and will prevent good map design if player's progression has to be taken into account when considering how you can reach nooks and crannies.

Changing the game to open world basically kills it instantly

It results it more generic characters and storytelling
It causes graphical downgrades and repeated art styles
It removes all of the tension of those well designed runs away from the Blues

And of course every open world needs a skills system so your abilities remained locked until further into the game

They took Mirror's Edge

By building bigger levels, using a different lighting system and aiming for greater realism. The original is bright, clean and sterile. The palette is deliberately unrealistic to enhance clarity. It feels like a video game. The sequel is gritty and dark, making use of more complicated textures and lighting tools. The palette is broader making it look more less unnatural. See for yourself:

What made the original special was the tight, well made parkour mechanics and brilliant level design, it struck a chord with people and even spawned a sort of speedrunning community.

Open world and upgrade systems completely sucked the beauty out of Mirror's Edge.

But it's not and that's the problem. What's available to you at the very beginning is more simplified than the very beginning of the original Mirror's Edge, but with all the upgrades and equipment stacked on top of it it becomes a confusing, unintuitive clusterfuck.

It's called lightmaps, """moron""". Global illumination implies real-time applications when talked about in video games. Yes the lighting was prebaked with third-party shit software and that took over 24 hours per level.
Technically it's not global illumination in Catalyst either. The lighting is prebaked and stored in a database that changes approximately every 2 in-game minutes with smooth transitions.

>>340182165
Mirrors's Edge utilizes the Enlighten Real-time Global Ilumination system and BAKED DOWN the dynamic lighting to lightmaps in UE3 to not murder every computer with real time light renderings. I don't know what Frostbite engines utilizes (based on what I can see, it looks to use alot more dynamic lighting which by default suffers from quality to insure the game from not being a framerate mess). Dice should have been fully aware on the tradeoffs of using their own engine and if Frostbite does use lightmaps, they could have worked with the Enlighten GI crew again on this game if they wanted to (they would have to go out their way to ensure the system must work in their engine which might be a key reason as to why they did not use it this time)

No, there is GI and Real Time GI (guess only crysis 3 used it).
>>
>>340181987
The main difference is the vibrancy and choice of more dull colors. ME 1 also had night levels but the overall tone difference was much more harsher than the new ME2 which makes it more sterile and striking.
>>
>>340182165
GI is just the common name for light bounces, there are two kinds of GI static (prebaked) and dynamic.
There are only a few engines that can do it dyamically, cryengine is one of them.
