TimeSplitters Rewind | March 2024 - Candid Discussion Video

[@thehomiesrule123]

All I want to comment is that, from the heart of the 8 year old that payed TS2/3 on Gamecube around 14 years ago, Thank you.

[@BMPK]

ps2 ftw!

[@DancingDiva6144]

Real!!!!!!!

[@xAlundrax]

Same here!

[@RancidTacoGas]

I was like 3 or 4. Crazy. I feel like we’re all siblings though just because of this game.

[@xAlundrax]

@@RancidTacoGas I accept this.

[@xlucky7x]

Timesplitters Rewind is the game I truly believe we need in the industry. These devs are bringing dreams to life.

[@DANCERcow]

If they keep the originals spirit if you will. The objectification of characters and stereotypes and crude humor and aesthetics!

[@oldmateaus]

I hope they don't nerf the females to "modern audiences

[@xlucky7x]

@oldmateaus I'd say this isn't a concern that needs to be worried about, especially since the devs seem to be wanting to make something that faithfully re-creates the original. It's not a AAA project, after all.

[@NBmad]

​@@xlucky7x exactly, but it's always a concern

[@HelghastFPS]

Timesplitters notification, hell yeah.

[@justplayLiLA]

this is what we had been waiting for

[@burgerlint6649]

[@vanquiishxx]

Hell yeah

[@DEANDRE_DTS]

What we needed

[@NewTimeSplitters]

... and just five days before April 1. Hmmm?

[@arandompasserby7940]

Ever since learning that Free Radical was resurrected just so a bunch of corporate morons in suits could demand their Timesplitters reboot be a 3rd person Fortnite clone, I've been feeling extremely melancholic about Timesplitters. I'm so glad you guys are still working on this and, most importantly, are trying to preserve what made Timesplitters unique and a classic for the ages. Much love to everyone on the team!

[@AtomicGoober]

They shut down Free Radical again at the end of 2023...

[@Anex952]

Bit of correction here, It wasn't demanded by the publishers, Steve Ellis had to pitch Timesplitters 4/Next as a f2p battle royale in order to get the greenlight from Deep Silver to start development, and also get the Studio, resources, employees etc.

[@Deliveredmean42]

​@@Anex952seems like this is the same strategy they used since timesplitters 1. So bad habits hit hard... what a shame.

[@KillerMeme]

Was the studio shut down again in the past few months?

[@xychid]

Is that what happened? I had no idea. Bloody greedy corporate morons.

[@Manticatol]

All these years and I’m still tapping the notification as soon as it pops up! Keep up the good work

[@completelytransparent6320]

build it and we will come. all it will take is some bigger gaming youtubers to put the word out and weve got a hit on our hands here

[@BMPK]

Just make sure its free so we can play it without a subscription service for console

[@tricksinsticks]

@@BMPKthey deserve to make revenue from the amount of time spent on this game. Something like this is far more justifiable of a £30 price tag than some of the other indie studio garbage that’s released these days

[@Trojan-SZN]

This game looks like one of those dreams that when you wake up from it you just fucking cry because it was a dream BUTS ITS ALL REAL

[@Nandi_7891]

It's just a dream because we're never going to play it. It has been in development for years and years, not even when we are grandparents are we going to play it. XD

[@PhriekshoTV]

In light of the recent news on TS4, this is nice to see some kinda update.

[@completelytransparent6320]

did you see the leaked gameplay? it was third person. it looked and played like fortnite. i play alot of fortnite so no shade but it looked SOOOOOO bad an and obv ripoff. it wasnt timesplitters and its prob good it got axed. fuck shareholders

[@chillyapples4401]

​@@completelytransparent6320 iirc that was the original concept before it moved into a timesplitters 2 remake/reboot but it was shelved around that point

[@PhriekshoTV]

@@chillyapples4401 Second Sight was phenomenal and showed they could definitely handle 3rd person, at least

[@CarterArts]

@@completelytransparent6320That was early concept gameplay, you people genuinely think a game would ship with ripped assets from Fortnite? Lmao

[@gfueloniichangfuelloniicha3221]

yes i 100% do lol. i dont think its that wild to assume that @@CarterArts

[@BloodyXUnit]

I'm hearing the Mapmaker Music in the background. I'd love this to be in there at some point.

[@D.Ghost92]

Yes!

[@NewTimeSplitters]

Mapmaker is a big part of why there's still a legacy fanbase for this franchise after 20 years of drought. imo, user content is the best way to keep fans coming back.

[@Icestorm294]

Toilet roll pricing at 5:42 - definitely covid inspired 😂👍🏻 Love TS, keep it coming! I’ll be waiting 🤓

[@Z333NO]

2024 is such a good year for timesplitters!! The ts4 found on the PS3 and updates from rewind.. love too see the community still active ♥️

You should make a way where us fans can help fund. Id definitely love to support so i can play this game. Anything to make it happen 🙌🔥

Big thanks to everyone working on this. Remember though not to let perfect become the enemy of good.

[@gerritvanlent3327]

This will be a day 1 purchase for me. So psyched.

[@PlutoniumProject]

Your struggles are very real, we wish we had the resources to assist, however, we don't have much need for artists on our project, so we never made any contacts in that space. We wish you the best of luck in bringing this forward! The struggle is only reinforced when your staff team are volunteers, it's hard to find talented people who are invested enough to spare their already limited and valuable time. - Plutonium Staff

[@awperisaac]

i love you

My heart goes out to the artists and animators slaving over this project. Y’all got everything to give and nothing to prove. Thank you

[@Dennisthefrog17]

I've been watching this project for a long time now and I'm so excited to see it coming along as well as it is!

[@Lovemycbx]

I was getting worried after a bit of radio silence about the project but WOW. This development update has me so excited about Rewind. It's got to be one of the best fan love letters I've ever seen and at the point where the videogame industry has just laid off so many talented creators my dearest hopes to you and your team to pick up some of those cornerstone individuals to make the last push in to reality. Thank you for your incredible efforts to one of my favorite games of all time.

[@CarterArts]

The discord is always pretty active, it looks quiet from the outside, but is very much not!

[@Lovemycbx]

@@CarterArts I was on the Discord channel but I don't have any game development skills so I decided to leave it and trust the good hands the project is clearly in.

[@PBHorrorGaming]

I was wondering whatever happened to this, nice to see its still being worked on.

[@tomhetzler4856]

You guys really are doing God's work. Im happy to have TS on PS5 now. But would love to see Rewind come to life!

[@zadunking3669]

Incredible work and it looks better and better worked. The lighting, the detail of each building and landscape. I hope your project can be finished soon. Although as you said in the video you still have a long way to go. In the multiplayer especially that there is no SBMM, we want a fun game and remember very good times of years ago. If there could be split screen like its predecessors it would be much better, because many times you spend good times with family and friends.

[@ChainikVlad]

I pooped my pants when I saw notification. Thank you for making my day and for making this project!

[@padders73]

Been following the project for years, what has been done by the team looks absolutely incredible! Can't wait for the finished result! 🤟

[@salta____]

Something that would be very cool for the future for TS Rewind would be plugin/mod support, this obviously shouldn't be a focus now but should be considered if possible. As I would love to see community made things for this TS Rewind, and I would personally help add to the community made things myself in any way I can.

[@amogus8844]

I agree with this, Timesplitters is not just an fps, I would say its one of the few fps games that was made for fun and has good offline content. Would be a waste not having mod support for this game.

[@finkamain1621]

Yeah Steam Workshop would be great for this game

[@TheBloodyViki]

It looks so good! It's like being able to smell the cooking before it's ready for consumption. Looking forward to the release and i hope y'all get all the help you need!

[@mattg7816]

Very impressive and thanks for the update, appreciate all the work involved

[@puddingtopf]

I'm glad people can finally see some progress again. I'm only a QA tester, not a dev, but it's still frustrating to see negative comments about the project supposedly being dead or whatever. Rewind is the best thing that can happen to TimeSplitters right now (besides an official trilogy remaster from Nightdive Studios maybe), so GG to the Rewind team.

[@mus_cetiner]

Oh awesome. Finally to see an update. I'm properly chuffed. :)

[@yoct2784]

What a relief to you hear from you guys again, I don't care how long it takes I'd rather wait for the final product then have something that continuously needs patching. Keep up the good work guys 😁

[@carlmariavonweber9875]

i almost cried, seeing some footage... im following Timesplitters rewind almost 10 years and i am so hyped to play this some day. I hope there will be challenges or something to challenge my friends, like those old challanges wherer you have to throw bricks into windows and the platin one is almost impossible but you would get a funny gun or stonegolem for private matches. I also thought about of maybe an elo system or something just to be a bit modern, or a system to compare players and ranking them. And it looks amazing on UE4

[@janott6342]

Glad to hear the project's still alive. I feel like one of the things that might be scaring off potential character animators (just as an example) is the lack of information about the project: What software is being used for modeling and animating the characters? Do you have finished rigs ready to go that animators can use? Which software are the rigs built in (Maya? Blender? Something else?) What's the overall team size here? How is everything organized? Are there weekly/monthly meetings? Maybe some sort of FAQ might be helpful? Anyway, just some thoughts - keep up the good work!

[@HiddenOne256]

really hope this ends up on steam with achievements, and multiplayer etc. full on story mode. hoping this game isnt the end of time splitters. grew up with this game, and its unfortunate they didnt give the love to this franchise later on
