I'm mostly wondering if the trailer will be real gameplay footage or if its just going to be a Blur CGI trailer BioWare seems to be so fond of as of late?

I like the Blur trailers, but given all the changes and such, I'd love to see gameplay or at least in game graphics even more. That said, I guess since Gamescom is the very next day on August 18th, maybe BioWare publicly unveils gameplay footage to the public there?

Perhaps one of us could start a new thread about this upcomming trailer where we could tell what we would like to see?:wizard:

It's coming out in a little over a week...I mean, if you want to create it, sure. :D But it seems that "I want" threads are good for hinting at devs and having something to do for the long stretches of time we have before we find anything out.

I suspect something like this:


Edit: Wrong trailer, fixed now.


Probably- seeing as DA2 is going for the whole "entirely new cinematic experience that grabs hold of you from the beginning and never lets go" thing, I guess they'd want a more cinematic trailer.

I just hope its not another repeat performance like this trailer....:sick:

Its amazing how many spoilers were in the pre-release DA trailers...

Does anyone knows if DAO2 will have a ts or not?

Thanks for any "credible answer"!

What's a "ts"?


I think MDarwin means a toolset.


as it seems in an interview it was confirmed that the game won't have a toolset, and the top-down isometric tactical view will also be removed...  <_<

:crying:


Uhh if no ts, not really good! :unsure: Hmmm ... have to think about of getting DAO2 now. :?

Thanks anyway!

I try not to think about it.

Hopefully we won't see any heavy metal. Or male-only love interest sex scenes.

Instead we'll have techno and two gay men.

Something like this.

Part of me wants the trailer to be seriously awesome and amazing like the ME2 launch trailer to revitalize my interest in DA2. Then again, it might be fun to see the whole forum melt down if the trailer is some awkward XTREME! Marilyn Manson trainwreck ;)

The forums will explode. Literally explode. The negative posts will be enough to bring back Stalin.

Manson's music probably yielded some profit for Bioware, considering it helped ten of my friends to purchase the game (and hate it because they thought it was going to be a god of war copy).

Its just like the people that saw the Sacred Ashes trailer and were disappointed when the game played nothing like that...

Would that be such a bad thing? I'd like to discuss with him about his experiment with the Russian Beard.

We won't see anything like a Launch Trailer until Launch.

And I actually expect the DA2 Announcement Trailer to be good. I was talking about the forums coming up with tons of new ridiculous things to throw around.

ME2 had some pretty damn amazing trailers. It benefited from the cinematic experience the game has, whereas DAO needed a lot of help; I think that goes far to explain why the metal was brought in and, the DEATH SEX AND VIOLENCE theme was so rampant. If DA2 is indeed more cinematic, I imagine the trailers will be more awesome and reflect that.

I think that trailer is a little too spoiler-y, however. It was easy to tell that a lot of the scenes were occuring in the same place, i.e. the Suicide Mission. It is a launch trailer, though. I would prefer something like what Dave pointed out eariler.

And, please, oh please, I really, really, really want a Lady Hawke trailer all to herself. Just one!

If I was incharge of the trailer, we'd be revealing some extreme zoom ins of each character's face and call it Hawke's World.

Well after reading the thread that was not at all suprisingly locked due to damage control about no tactical camera or toolset for PC. I think its just about safe to write the game off as Dragon Effect at this point and call it a console game at its core. Way to go Bioware, way to alienate your older fanbase.

And did you read what Bioware said to respond to those claims, instead of immediately blaming consoles?

Wow I had actually never seen that trailer before. Are you kidding me? That spoils the end of all the major quests and stuff. It even spoils the sex scenes! That's terrible. Bioware please do not do that to DA2. If I had seen that before I played the game I would have been very sad once I did play it. I'm not even going to get into the music selection. Eesh.

It's pretty funny seeing the reactions of people who have the trailer on their iPod and are hyped to the game and have listened to it over and over again only to start the game and have the melodic theme pop up. They were like "What the **** is this ****?" and gave up before finishing Ostagar due to saying they expected a god of war clone.

That is pretty funny because when I started it up for the first time I was very "meh" about it not knowing anything at all about the game (the BF bought it and I saw it lying around). But then as soon as it loaded the title screen I heard the theme and went "ooooooh I like" and instantly got about 1000% more interested in the game.

I feel a little sorry for people who bought it thinking it would be like GoW (lol).

Yes. That's why it was locked. Because BioWare was threatened by some fanb*tching. That's the most obvious, realistic reason.

Wow. I somehow never saw that trailer. Makes me want to play the game again. That is seriously the most epic music ever too.

I know a lot of people lament the vague statements about "a more cinematic feel" or whatever, but honestly, after viewing awesome stuff like that, I really hope they DO make it more cinematic, in a lot of ways. DAO was amazing, but its cutscenes weren't exactly thrilling most of the time. Its dialogue was just cuts between two people's faces. There was very little emotion visible on any faces.

It would be nice to have the kind of polish ME2 had. Actual choreographed dialogues, where people move around as they speak. The ability to contribute to the story without dialogue...and by that I mean being able to see someone's expression and read their emotion. Then epic cutscenes such as Shepard leaping for the Normandy, Tali sliding off the edge of the platform...all the good summer-blockbuster-y goodness. I want it to DESERVE such epic music as that ME2 trailer had.

They actually confirmed that the PC will retain a tactial camera and that the PC toolset is nearly identical and they are looking for a way to "patch" the current one to work with DA2.....sure it might not be on the day of release but I would wadger that we PC users will have a working toolset shortly after release
