>it's going to be open world NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Did someone actually confirm this? So far, the above-ground segments just looked only a shade more open than how they were in 2033, and the only thing I've heard so far about it is "non-linear."

>>380407398
No it's not. If it was going to be open world, they would have smeared that shit all over it's description. It specifically said "vast/open areas" instead of "open world." It probably just means my outside segments, which hopefully they didn't get rid of the radiation mechanic for

>>380407647
It's been confirmed to NOT be open world. OP is probably baiting.
>"Metro Exodus is an epic, story-driven first person shooter from 4A Games that blends deadly combat and stealth with exploration and survival horror in one of the most immersive game worlds ever created. Explore the Russian wilderness across vast, non-linear levels and follow a thrilling story-line that spans an entire year through spring, summer and autumn to the depths of nuclear winter. Inspired by the novels of Dmitry Glukhovsky, Metro Exodus continues Artyom’s story in the greatest Metro adventure yet"
The developer was talking about how there would be some big levels and some small levels on the interview.

This is the best showing at E3, Russians rarely disappoint when it comes to FPS.

>>380408259
Thank God. The open world trend needs to fucking die. It's already as frustrating as zombies.

Not saying Metro should be open world, but open world everywhere wouldn't be a problem if the game type actually improved over time but it hasn't.

Same goes for zombies actually.

Theyre both good but metro is good because it IS linear

are the first two games even any good?

>>380411168
yes, tense atmosphere, fun gunplay, and Russian banter make for a good time

>>380410776
This. I generally don't like linear games but I loved Metro 2033. They take full advantage of it, to the extent of whooping the shit out of anything you can get in an open world.

Metro would work as Open world possibly, because Metro is literally about long journeys.

>>380410154
Yes, absolutely.

In fact, I'll take two.

I've played through Metro LL several times nuts never played Metro 2033. Is the first game worth it at all if I have Last Light?

>>380408974
it is open-world, 4a confirmed it to eurogamer

Who the fuck said they hate it? Seems like you're just baiting.

>>380412484
2033 is better than Lastlight, in my opinion, but they are both good games

DO NOT play the redux version.

>>380412407
Only reason people should hate is if they played last light redux and redux only , even then it's still damn good. I haven't seen much metro hate aside from shitposters

>>380412663
>DO NOT play the redux version.
Why?

>>380412663
I actually played the redux version, kinda regret it, I always like to purchase the original version of games I play. Im looking forward to getting the o.g. version from g2a and playing it before exodus arrives

>>380410776
>wanting metro to take over the throne of stalker

theres literally nothing wrong with wanting this

>>380412771
Someone might have the webums but there's animation changes that are worse, stealth is easier and the lighting and atmosphere - best parts of 2033 - are much worse.

>>380412663
why? I made a mistake and played the redux versions, and haven't played the originals. i want to play them again now that a new one is coming out, should I get the original ones?

>>380412949
Ah ok

Can we stop the open world menace? How long until even normies get tired of it?

The fact that they lap up the same old garbage Ubisoft shits out year after year doesn't fill me with hope.

>>380413970
So the second game makes no mention of the surface being cleaner?

>>380414624
It's not quite as thawed out so maybe that has something to do with it. There was still a bunch of ice around whereas now it's basically turning into summer.

>>380413970
>>380413865

Artyom has gone up with 0 equipment before in the books , he had a week of bed rest after (also he's going bald prematurely and may have retard babiez/ no babies and that's from all those trips he did WITH gear)

But it's clear the games are going in a more hopeful direction

Literally no, the linearity and the fact that they're both FPS are the only thing they have in common.

>>380408259
Nothing in that quote says its not open world

But this is not a bad thing, fucking Christ I remember years ago /v/ would always complain on how games where too linear and wanted more freedom in games, now everyone bitches about how they hate open world games and want more linear games.

Hell I remember back then people would complain on how they wanted Metro to be open world and hated that it was linear (granted Metro did a really good job with that though)

We have had 2 really sold games, its not the end of the world for one game to be a open world type. Metro would be a perfect setting for that.

Open world games are not bad, I really hate how people seem to forget that some of the best games ever where open world (Fallout 1,2 NV, Legend of Zelda OOT, GTA, STALKER etc)

inb4"BUT THOSE ARE NOT OPEN WORLD GAMES!!!"

Open world just means there is a big open world for you to explore, it does not mean it has to be a "take over this outpost for the 100th time" type of game that we see a lot.

Metro is perfect for a open world game, I mean just look a STALKER. People really just need to hop off the open world hate bandwagon.

>>380414985
Why do people think we still live in the time where everything is a shooter with brown and grey?

I got the redux bundle and starting 2033 but I have it on ranger hardcore survival and turned the gamma all the way down. Will this suffice to get the atmosphere of the original back?

>>380415172
But metro isn't about top side. It's about the metro

>>380415174
>>380414985
Normalfags only play AAA games
if it isnt made by a big company its instantly weebindieshit to them

>>380415321
the original is like less than $5 on G2A right now, you can go buy that or you can just play redux, if you haven't played the original it probably doesn't matter

>>380415172
The first S.T.A.L..K.E.R. is not open world. It's hub-based.

>>380415172
Open world isn't more freedom, it's the opposite most of the time.

>>380415321
No, the AI is fucking garbage, you can literally stand in front of them in the "shadows".

The level design is top notch though.

The original team that did ShoC made it though.

>>380414624
I distinctly remember Artyom talking about how "The air isn't clean enough to breath YET" during one of the loading screens in one of the previous games.

It would make sense that somewhere in bumfuck nowhere in siberia the radiation would be minimal since why would you even aim a nuke there in the first place.

>>380415362
This! Fucking this! For fuck sake, is it so difficult to understand such a simple concept /v/?

>>380416369
>implying you were

I wish Metro went open world but stuck to being almost all underground, creeping around through the whole network and stumbling across abandoned stations, piecing together the story of what happened to them would've been sweet. I like STALKER and I'm looking forward to seeing a fresh take on that structure but I'd rather Metro stay its own thing.

>>380416941
>I wish Metro went open world but stuck to being almost all underground,
It's literally called Metro.

>>380416490
Because a fucking all-out nuclear war means that the whole atmosphere gets polluted with radioactive particles and debris. The resulting fallout would pollute the entire globe, and the clouds would shield the surface from the sunlight inducing the nuclear winter. Moscow would, and in Metro was, bombed until almost nothing remains, meaning that the ground itself would be radioactive, contributing to the air pollution.

Would radiations and pollution wear off over time? Yes, but realistically not quickly enough to allow Artyom to return to the surface without gear.

Metro Exodus is far fetched, out of continuity with the games, and will be a shit Metro, and an insufficient Stalker, while appealing to the Fallout 4 audience.

Not true.
Can't find the quote, but a dev said it will be a classic Metro game (undergrond) with a semi-open approch similar to Halo games when it comes to surface areas. Breddy gud if you ask me

I wouldn't mind a non-linear or hub world type metro game set almost entirely in the metro.

Would be pretty fucking sweet imo.

>>380416529
>bulk of the game takes place in the Metro
>need to gather up gas masks and ammo before going topside
>better equipment in general on the surface, but you need to burn gas masks and fight stronger mutants to get it

Really, a STALKER like world design for Metro could be amazing. I'm not a huge fan of open world games (largely due to the majority of them giving the player 0 incentive to explore) but they can be done really well.

>>380417529
I just hope it gives you some freedom in visiting the areas, and isn't just a linear story progression were you visit each spot along the story line.

>>380416490
But they aren't in bumfuck nowhere in Siberia, they are in Moscow.

>>380418334

and they're not in a metro anymore?

>>380417916
>but they can be done really well
We all know that nowaday "open world" is equivalent to "large as an ocean, deep as a puddle", since it inflates the game's length without much effort from the developer's side.

Beside, they literally decided to show Artyom, who is supposed to be dead by the end of Last Light, going to the surface, removing his mask, seeing the uncontaminated nature, and riding away in a steam locomotive. This is likely to be Metro Exodus' prologue, which tells a lot about the fucking rest of the game.

>>380418426
Yes they fucking are. Metro is set in Moscow's underground transport system.

>>380418718
He was in the beginning of the trailer

>>380418729
>Beside, they literally decided to show Artyom, who is supposed to be dead by the end of Last Light
Seems someone got the bad ending

>>380418729
apparently, the ending where the dark ones save you in last light is cannon for exodus. So artyom isn't deas

>>380418974
>bad ending to 1 is canon
>good ending to 2 is canon

This annoys me.

>>380419106
What it is the most annoying to me is the fact they give you multiple finals just to take that freedom away in the next chapter. It's kinda insulting.

>>380410776
Wrong. Metro has zero replayability because of linearity.

I don't wanna fucking go through the fucking Nosalis caves again. Fuck that sort of shit. I stealthed it once, and I won't do it again.
