Warhawk: what's next?

KingPS3.com gives us their thoughts on what should be next for the world of Warhawk including maps, weapons, and vehicles.

Peter Griffin6351d ago

i must admit every single one is very well thought out and i would love if they were added. LISTEN TO THESE GUYS INCOG!!

ajeben8096351d ago

They're not really good ideas at all. The only good original idea I could agree with is the spawn mine.

As for the maps "Highland Cliffs" sounds similar to Eucadia as there is already 2 bases at each end on a cliff.
"Volcanic escape" sounds like Tau Crater with the mothership being simlar to the volcano.
"Ocean Command" is original but just wouldnt work. It wouldnt be as open to fly around in like the other maps, so it wouldnt suit the core gameplay.

Shotgun? no.

Havok? Thats just a ridiculous idea, who is going to want to wait around to detonate a bomb. You will just become an easy target. It would be pointless even planting one of these, you would have to sit there and time your detonation which is a waste of time and no fun.

Bikes: Possible but pretty much pointless, other than transport. Adding this vehicle would make it too easy to get around.

Boats? Already confirmed by dylan several times as follows: NO!

Warhawk 2 - should have at least the same number of maps as warhawk 1, the map sizes should be at least as big as the omega dawn and the broken mirrow maps, 60 players online of course, ranking system the same as Batlleifeld 2142 (lots of rewards, every rank you go up you get an unlock point that gives you an upgrade for your a type of gun or just player attributes), Boats, same type of cool graphics with bigger explosions, screen capture (maybe youtube upload support with video edeting) and a reason why the reds and the blues hate each other

Keep it simple

* Giant Map that enables the use of all current vehicles and jet packs

* An Elephant-like(Halo 3) vehicle. This should be heavily armoured and be able to take a huge amount of hits, have significant anti-air and anti-tank ability but be slower than a tank. I should be stationed only at the main base so that it enables the team that has lost all bases, to have a fighting chance of getting out of main base.

* Tomahawk/cruise missle laucher. Missile range covering up to a 2/3 of the map. Long respawn between missle launch. Used strategically - especially saving a captured flag being taken back by the drop ship or other vehicle.

simple awesomeness.

But better still:

* Bots with devilish combat AI - full games. No need to depend on humans to have a warhawk buzz.

* Map creation/modification - user created content is the future for consoles.

QuackPot6351d ago

Omega Dawn and Broken Mirror are big enough to include all vehicles and jetpacks.

rroded6351d ago

another major expansion pack might not b in the cards. Incognito's working on Hardwa4re 2 now and have practicly stopped supporting Warhawk since the last expansion...
Still about 500 hours in and counting myself but Im not holding my breath for anything new...

ps to the guy who suggested one huge map with all vehicles Dylan's said they cant do it due to memory limits (ie ram) :(

DaCandyman6350d ago

* How about flares that detonate missiles, which is a good defense for those that chase there targets. Not always relying on the air mines.

* A map with two large stationary aircraftcarrier that launches all types of aircraft with key destruction(new gameplay)/takeover(zones) points.
In which case each carrier has 5 control points/zones (enemy zones do not serve as spawn points and are destroyed) thus a good reason to have spawn mines which can only be placed in dead, non-zoned or friendly areas.
Spawn mines act as teleportation for those that would rather collect weapons before the close combat fight, entry points are where the jetpacks are, you will not be able to enter teleport with jetpacks attached but may do so after teleporting. (Saying that makes me think that maybe the jetpack spawners act as teleporting stations).
The 5 control points are 4 secondary and 1 primary core. You can not destroy the primary until all 4 of the secondary are destroyed, all points are repairable, the 4 secondary non-repairable when 80% destroyed. Primary core repairable until destroyed. Balanced and satisfying.

Roundtable: Dead Game Franchises We Miss

With every big game now belonging to a big intellectual property, there are those that have become redundant. Here are the series' we miss.

RPGer1763d ago

I miss Dark Cloud I mean damn, Dark Cloud 2 is one of the best Action RPG game ever made. The game have: Rich Worlds, different setting, tons of contents, vareity in gameplay like never before (and even after), best buliding mechanics, crafting system like no one did and finally impressive graphics.

Most underrated game ever. It deserved the popularity and sales of Zelda and Final Fantasy. ut unfortunately, Level-5 and Sony didn't advertise it at all.

titans99991763d ago

My franchises I wish would make a come back, are Battlefront by pandemic studios - galactic conquest was the best, mercenaries 1 and 2, and prototype 1 and 2...great games!

Remembering Warhawk – one of the PS3’s first multiplayer must-haves

TSA writes: "For many PS3 owners and members of the TSA community, Warhawk was our first foray into the mesmerising world of online multiplayer. Now, after more than a decade of dogfights, the skies over Eucadia are clear, the game’s two warring factions having called an eternal ceasefire. To put it in less poetic terms, Sony finally pulled the plug on January 31st with the online servers no longer accessible."

I hope we do get a next-gen Warhawk, that would be awesome. Warhawk was so underrated for it's time.

SegaSaturn6692544d ago

This game...my god. What a masterpiece.

mkis0072544d ago

I really enjoyed warhawk on ps3. Hope it isn't dead because of Starhawks average reception.

Knushwood Butt2543d ago

Time just flew by when playing this, and I always had that, 'just one more game, then I quit for the day.' urge.

Spent entire days playing it. Not healthy, but endless fun.

PoSTedUP2544d ago

after a very long hard days work i would come home and drink a few coors light 24 ounces while playing this game on my vita through PSnow, for hours and hours. it made me happy. it is one of those experiences i will never forget.

Guess I can now plat all stars😁

porkChop2673d ago

A Warhawk remaster or remake would be nice, but we know Sony isn't going to bother.

MONOLITHICIDE2673d ago

I only diagree because please dont say that. We have had zero games like this so far. No MAG, SOCOM, TWISTED METAL etc...

TheSaint2673d ago

I'd kill or die for a MAG 2 on PS4.

Babadook72673d ago

Yup. Remaster or better yet. A remake.

FunAndGun2673d ago

Please, for the love of all things gaming, make a Warhawk remaster. I logged on for Warhawk day last year, and promptly got destroyed by ground and air. Some hardcore players still playing today. Warhawk is my favorite MP game ever made, hands down!

Sevir2673d ago

Honestly, Warhawk and the original Resistance was pure multiplayer bliss on PS3 in it's first few years on the market. If they did a ground up remake of Warhawk for PS4 I'd be so happy. In similar to how they did Wipeout Omega collection on PS4

Concertoine2673d ago

I miss the simplicity of early 7th gen shooters.
