A "look over your shoulder" button would be quality of life and feel immersive. Being able to run forwards and hold a button to see slighly behind you but able to run while you peek would be more fluid and natural.

What honestly might make things creepier is if when something happened like a probe or an alien showed up, all the birds just... stopped. Like they do when there's a predator nearby. Just imagine you're in the woods and suddenly the birds go silent and then you see an alien out of the corner of your eye

[@Waroftheworldsz]

Yeah kinda like in Signs. Honestly that's my biggest gripe with the game at the moment. The crickets and nuisent birds going off in your ear 24/7. I think they should also tone down the crowd sounds too, they sound repetitive and annoying everytime you see a tripod approach. I'd much prefer the thunderous boom of a tripod alerting you than a crowd of people.

It feels so satisfying to know that the player will be able to actually kill the Martians when they're outside of the Tripods, although you should probably make them a bit more reactive to being injured when attacked by the player and maybe other armed human NPCs such as the military and looters if they manage to encounter the alien pilots while hiding in nearby structures. Like a flinching animation and maybe some blood decals with visible wound textures on the character models for the Martians shown in the video.

Honestly though, a tripod shape makes sense given the design of their ship. It's like an alien gundam or mech built after their own image.

[@Confused_surprise]

@justinkautz7733 I get the point, but I disagree because it makes them "less alien" in a way. In the book they are described as roughly as "a head with 16 fingers" because they evolved using machines, meaning they only need a head to think and fingers to operate said machines. Even the scene when the aliens go out of the tripod to chase the protagonist, they are still crawling around using machines mimicking hands, which they use to build themselves a base on the ground.

4:37 Woah, really mastered the atmosphere in the game! *That guy is definitely not leaving that building.*

[@TheModernMusicsucks]

Not sure about 'mastered', definitely going in the right direction though!

[@Gemwyr68]

The feature to wake up to probing is such a smart and scary idea, love it

[@omarvezzosi3243]

I can't wait for play this with my friends. Take all your time you need, don't rush. Greetings from Italy 👊

[@TheBingLiam]

I used to have dreams like this. I can't wait to play

[@kingaling6701]

4:46 Man didn't even have a chance.

[@djshuman689]

The development of this game has been phenomenal, absolutely terrifying. Wouldn't be crazy if they Made "A Quiet Place" game after this project? it would be wild!

[@infi2723]

This game is only possible due to war of the worlds being in public domain.

[@alessandrobianchi645]

Spielberg's movie was more entertaining than the book imo. Probably because the book is about 100 years old​@@infi2723

[@scenenuf]

such a horrible series tf

[@rusler159]

⁠​⁠@@scenenufwhat series war of the worlds or a quiet place

[@Final_SC]

​@@scenenufa quiet place?

[@FunkSwayed]

Damn, sound and atmosphere is already incredible. Best of luck with this project

[@lesser8531]

I love how it gives you the option to greet someone while they're running from their lives.

[@mintnite]

I appreciate the gameplay showing REAL camera (mouse) movement and not the slow ass cinematic joystick pan that we always see in E3 trailers

[@waffler-yz3gw]

agreed

[@alessandrobianchi645]

That's how gameplay showcase should be. Remember "the day before"?

[@vathirus7880]

It's darn so good and scary hearing people screaming in distance, and the npc also have a lot of dialogue, man im so into this game

[@iananderson5050]

I still think there should be a capability to hide from the probe and aliens in a wardrobe or something. Or maybe in cupboards. In the original wells book, the narrator hid from them in a pile of coal. There needs to be some "safe places" so that you can evade the aliens consistently without tipping them off. Perhaps a hold breath option to devrease detection when hiding but still make it possible to be found

[@GioMarron]

I’m sure you guys are already aware if it’s a glitch or if there’s a reason behind it that you’re aware of, but in the seconds leading up to 4:35 there are power cables coming from a pylon out of the window that suddenly takes a right angle turn with nothing influence the turn then - maybe a missing assert I hope this doesn’t come across as some cockwomble wanting to shit on the game but it’s the opposite: I really want this to succeed but you know how reviewers are and will sh!t on a near perfect gaming experience if there’s even the smallest graphical error or a rock pigeon in a slightly different shade of rock pigeon colour. The game looks incredible and I’m really looking forward to the release. You guys have done an amazing job and the progress from early images and gameplay to now this! This is definitely gonna make a huge splash

[@KoenigseggJesko-rq9sk]

(Uberpod walking towards a crowd) Man: This place is getting dangerous, we should leave!

[@LITTLEJET]

He ain’t wrong tho

[@celadewallace474]

just low-key panic

[@SomeOtherDude896]

16:24 who ever did the sound design needs a raise

[@WhiskeyBlues0]

Congrats on 100,000 subscribers! ❤

[@GeoffInfield]

AWESOME! Some of my fav bits; 15:20 very cool! 19:26 interaction with items inside a house, menus etc 22:15 plane coming down 27:59 house probing 30:09 alien 33:13 trashed fighting machine 33:25 playing as an alien in a fighting machine - fantastic! 35:12 probe's eye view

[@adammacdonald5332]

Take all the time you need on this... already a masterpiece. Few youtube videos are invigorating, but this one is.

[@SpeedyGaming]

This game has just improved over the course several months!!! It’s incredible!

[@adityaarafian2751]

Man.. the tripod’s horn always stuck in my mind. The movie was incredible!

[@Mytoastisok]

One of my favorite parts is hearing the military attacking a tripod and then seconds later, they are silenced.

[@MEL_7717]

I love the details of the leaves burning and disintegrating when the beams from the alien weapons hit them. Outstanding.

[@thpuds666]

I'VE HAD THIS ON MY WISH LIST SINCE I DISCOVERED IT I CAN'T WAIT!!!

[@00000EDDY00000]

I love that you are using the same tripod sounds from the movie! Gives me chills!!

[@cody12345249]

I just want to say thank you. When I watched this movie as a kid all I could think about right into my 20's is how kick-ass a game would be. Now at 27 there's one being developed, and it looks astounding. Amazing work.

[@mustang7272]

The destruction of the buildings looks much better

[@FrenchFryCheese04]

It's getting more and more better then it's a masterpiece

[@hamburglar7403]

The fact that you guys constantly give us gameplay every few months, giving us a list of changes, and showing them off, is so impressive to me. You’re building trust with your fanbase, and I respect that so much. I’ll definitely be picking this one up when it’s out, keep up the great work!!!

[@benmarki]

Congratulations to the team for the 100k subs ! Amazing work ! Can't wait to see the next showcase of development.

[@ashquestXIV]

27:50 seeing the house from “I’m On Observation Duty” made me so happy for some reason. I love how scary the whole probe aspect feels, though!

[@nocommentary9928]

The probes are terrifying. Its been implemented very well and I am impressed how it can navigate around complex geometry without clipping through stuff.

[@hakimibil]

When the indomitable human spirit meet the neverending hunger for blood (the alien about to sneeze for the first time in their existence)

[@manuelbarquera9478]

Game does look better each time you guys drop a video im excited for it

[@Tanksnstuffs]

Hey dev, if you see this, there was a good idea of making the crickets being kind of safety indicator, but i have a better idea. Make so when the tripods are away, there is more wildlife, including the one that brings danger. When they are closer, but not too close, only the crickets are heard. And when they are REALLY close, even the crickets are gone. A subtle yet nice addition it will be.
