Huh but Dive clops fig is quite cute!

Thanks for the videos. It's been the most informative so far with that gameplay. I'm a little more excited for the game now but I'm not entirely sold on it being a day one event for me. I really need to see further complete level plays to get a feel about what the game is really going to be like. It seems to me that the SuperCharge parts don't really do that much and it's no big deal if you do skip it. That's probably what I'll end up doing as I don't really care for vehicle games.

I'm wondering if they are still tinkering and fooling around with the game. It seems amazing if they are as they had two years to work on it. I'd think they would be more than done on it by now, but some of the comments in the video makes out that they are still working on it.

The other big thing I got from the video is that Tessa will be back, basically the normal cast of returning characters too. I was pretty tired of hearing Flynn babbling off in the video and Cali nagging about gameplay. They really need to switch that up as I grew to depise it with replaying the prior games so much.

Most development teams will work on a game for as long as they possibly can before release. There's always bits to polish, extra little bits they can add or bugs to fix. Expect them to be working on it up until the end of July/August I would think. Then if they plan to do patches, they'll start work on a Day 1 patch.

Thanks we know much more now!

After watching these videos I can't help but feel that Trap Team just feels so small now lol. Anyone else feel that Super Chargers just feels so vast and open? Man I'm really excited to play this.

I knew it! Gill Grunt is returning as a SuperCharger and his new outfit is even better than his old one.

havent bumped into you guys at E3 yet!

I'm still stuck in England, but Andy's about, drop him a DM on twitter and I'm sure he'd be happy to meet up.

Pretty solid videos as always, well done. Maybe Andy could show his and Lou's face a bite more in the future so we can see who is talking to us.

I have no desire for facecam, especially since the focus is the gameplay. Seeing that in Skyfamily distracts me big time from trying to look for details.

Precisely.

Exactly. It blocks some of the detail.

Thanks for the feedback on facecams, it's always a contentious issue.

Wouldn't call it an issue. Sure,everyone and their dog is doing it, but the quality isn't better or worse because of it. It's just that it's better for actual let's plays and not news and footage,where, no offence, people don't really care about who's talking.

The latest from Andy

HUGOS BACK!!!!!

(I'll just probably edit this post as I watch it's a lot of info)
Cali's jacket. Oh wow, Hugo can't even have proper 'yay's from me for showing up - that jacket is just too cool.

Wait,CHAPTER 3? Talk about a warm welcome, I was expecting this to be 5 or something. It's a long ways from 12. - Oh it goes straight to 7. That's a lot of levels for the same world.

Oh gosh, VV's old Mabu design is back if you look closely at 2:01... why do they have to keep changing the designs, and why do those Cloudbreak Mabu look so ugly?!

Because it's their ideas and totes new and no one told them the benefits of consistency.
But better than the comic Mabu at the least. They don't even have the signature markings to speak of.

I don't think those are Mabu. I believe they're foxes of some kind.

Playing through SWAP Force again, they are apparently Mabu. I'm perfectly fine with them though...

Huh, well I'm fine with though. Look at Flynn, he's a Mabu but looks much more dog-like than Badger. Cali looks more Cat-like than Mabu as well.

Except for Hugo, he's a Molekin.

Hugo is a Mabu as well. It's never explained HOW,but considering the story scroll that mentions the species is mostly bald he might be one of the lucky guys that never used oil as shampoo.

I'm thinking thinking that "chapters" are just the save points from old games. Wasn't there something like 3 to 5 save points per level or something? I never noticed them as I never needed to use them. The nagging about Swap Force being so long, they probably kept the length but split each level into 10 chapters or something like that. I'm just hoping they won't brag about having a whopping 60+ "chapters" but really they are givng us half the normal content plus a ton of unwanted racing content to make up for it. That basically means I'm getting half a game this year as I don't really want to play any of that contect.

I thought Hugo was a mole?

Quote: Bionichute

I thought Hugo was a mole?

He looks like it,but he's been identified as Mabu in several sources - kinda like Cali's case when everyone thought she was a feline because of her spot pattern but official stuff said otherwise. He also doesn't have the Molekin claws, they're actually much more like Cali's. But then you see that other Mabu don't have claws at all and things just get confusing.

Which part of which video shows the mabu design? I dont want to spoil a lot of the levels for myself like i did last year with TT

Some other footage of the same level has them talking to the level NPCs. It looks like a squirrel,actually, the eye spots seem to be just shading.

Crossing the streams here, nothing new to learn, but Andy just bumped into SkyDad and kids
