The only shark that i know that could attack like that and kill you with one bite is the white shark.

Which is what (it appears) they modeled the hybrid land-shark after (going off of the videos showing a Great White on an operating-type table).

Yes the landshark is a misture of a white shark (Carcharodon carcharias) and feline carnivore, maybe a tiger (Panthera tigris).

First I'd like to thank you guys at ZP for posting the presentation. It's one of the best I've ever seen, very informative and clearly shows the potential of the game. Funny thing is that I didn't read the description, got through the video and thought.. Hmm, this is probably my favourite presentation from GC 2010 :-) Especially the voice processing demonstration was nice.

Thanks for posting that awesome presentation. I really liked the RTVP demonstration, now there's a reason to say, "Hey guys, cut the chatter."

I really liked how the HUD was integrated in with the helmet, it was seemless and stylistic. There's a lot of potential for innovation here, use it all up guys.

Good work, and keep it up!

That Unreal Engine Demo was really impressive! I really liked how it benefitted from the engine in terms of effects, but didn't automatically look like an Unreal Game with the caracteristic bump-map effect etc. Like Mirrors Edge, it kind of wrestled the engine into putting out somewhat unique visuals.

The Voice System for Coop simply blew me away. Did the shark actually react to the call? This is really innovative stuff. If you pull this off, you should advertise it as one of the game's main features.

But here is some critisism: I bought the game before it exists yet. Only to watch an insanely impressive Video of a game that i will never get to play. The Unreal Demo feels lightyears more capable and advanced than all the Unity Stuff. I feel that IM would be a WAY better game if it used the Unreal Engine 3.

It's even more frustrating now that the UDK was released for free. If i may be so bold, i think you should return once again to the Unreal Engine 3. I think that Engine is much, much more capable to realize your vision than the Unity Engine.

Thanks Johnson, for your professionalism in regard to the GDC link removal, never cool to be forced to do an admin-edit on peoples posts. Thankfully we did not have to .. All good!

In regards to engine choice:

We've got nothing but love and respect for both Epic Games and Unreal Engine 3.

But what we've experienced with Unity with its purity in design, fast iterative usability and its soon to be released "next-gen" capabilities (U3.0) blows us away and I can assure you that what we've created in UE3 two years ago will be so last century compared to what we'll be creating in Unity next!

Sorry for the sales tone ... I can't help it; you just be glad you can't hear the thunder-throat trailer voice in my head! :)

Don't be sorry, the vast majority of us support your switch to Unity. Whatever helps you make the game makes us happy in turn.

And for the hell of it:

I STILL BELIEVE!!!

awesome new (old!) video in the briefing room!

That thing really sets the mood... I really really hope you guys are able to produce something like that for us all to try soon :)

edit: Quick thought... I imagine that you guys arent able to release that because of license issues right? Otherwise it would be fun for try for the spearheads/frontliners (as long as you make a big "DOES NOT REPRESENT FINAL PRODUCT" splash screen ;) )

I enjoyed the GDC 2008 video. This game is bringing back memory's of SWAT 4 I really loved the Voice System excellent real excellent. I do not know no other game that have this system. I also loved how the little baby shark responded to your voice I was like wow.

IM First Immersion Demo 2007 - have you guys seen this? It's absolutely breathtaking stuff that demonstrates many of the features we've heard about in the interviews.

Yeah, that was an awesome concept demo. I liked the overall feel and mood set within it. It almost could have been changed to a survival horror game with the feel they were setting there. Low Ammo, tough critters to kill, and terrible visibility, that would be awesome.

You have to upgrade your account to Frontliner or Spearhead and you can see it in the Briefing Room, an exclusive area of the site for us. i suggest Spearhead!
