I've only ever seen one other company listen to the feedback of their fans and actually go all out like this; CD Projekt Red. The Witcher Enhanced Edition. Larian also did something similar with Divinity 2, releasing an absolutely gigantic update patch that fixed/added/changed a lot of stuff, but not to the level of CPR and Dark Energy Digital.

Yes, definitely. I've got the older 360 version (pre-Prophecy enhancements) and it's a great game.

It follows one of the US time zones I think, normally the release date (When not bound by US = Tuesdays / EU = Fridays/Thursdays regular delay.) is around 18.00 to 20.00 here in Sweden, depends on the publisher but it's rare to see anything earlier than that aside from the Steam://install based command.
(US time zone as with a six to eight hour delay the release coincides with some of the coastal noon US time zones I think it was, should look it up better.)

Thanks JB! Just tried installing but, as per usual, "The steam servers are currently too busy to process this request" >_<

What happened to this: http://www.incgamers.com/News/22274/hydrophobia-release-and-platforms-clarified
| Quote: | "Hydrophobia is of a production quality that only the best at retail can match and yes it is of a comparable gameplay length to an AAA retail game," he said.
Jones explained that the game was always going to be a full release, but the dev team had no idea that the final product, using the proprietary engine (Infinite Worlds), would allow them to create a game that's file size was tiny. Jones explains that this was a side effect of the technology used in the engine.
"We produced the engine principally because it conveys a massive productivity benefit - basically it allows a small team like ourselves to produce a big budget game.
"But it had a spin off effect of producing a game to an impossibly small file size. Impossibly small meaning under 1GB.
"My bizarre analogy for this is Viagra. It was developed as a heart drug but had an interesting side effect."
Jones explained that delivering the game digitally would make more sense, especially using an engine like the Infinite Worlds engine which allows you to create such small file sizes.
"Size matters. Not sure that the industry has quite grasped this one yet. All of a sudden everyone talks about downloading games. But this bright digital future has a big elephant sitting in their virtual room. Until developers produce games with IW or its equivalent it will remain a dream." |
I mean if the larger size is worth it (higher quality assets, etc), I'm cool with this, I just hope it's not like Turok, or Star Wars: TFU, where the size of the PC version exploded for no good reason.

I guess they're talking about the original 360 release mate. That was under 1GB if memory serves... but then they bought out an almost-1GB patch in the form of Pure ... and NOW an even larger game, some 40 odd percent larger than Pure, in the form of Prophecy.

Bought. The devs deserves support for listening + good price.. i love water themed games, they're very rare..
900kb/s from a US server :/ actually never had a problem with downloading from Steam before, i usually have the games within 15-20 minutes.

Indeed that's what they' are talking about, but unless they have used much higher quality assets for the PC version, no matter how extensive changes they made I can't believe the size ended up being 4GB's larger!
So I hope it will have nice textures

I started playing it on 360, but haven't gotten far at all, but then i heard of this so i stopped. But now it sounds like a completely new game.. So the games are in fact completely different now? |

| Quote: | The game has received further enhancements and it's now titled "Hydrophobia Prophecy".
It will be released on Steam on May 9th for $10, and on PSN shortly later. The PSN version will support Move and MLAA.
They have done extensive changes to the game since their last big update, for example 70% of the levels are completely new, and the rest have been reworked. This means the game's length has been extended. There are better graphics, sound design, remastered voice acting/new voice actors, new combat gameplay, tweaked script, new ending, etc. |
The plot isn't supposed to be completely different, but the levels are mostly going to be new.

) and the visuals don't seem all that improved over the 360 version. There's this.... haze... over the screen, like vaseline smear but not as bad. I dunno, it's hard to explain but the visuals are definitely not vibrant and clear --- oh and for the love of god; ENABLE VSYNC. I've not seen this much tearing in a game since RE5 hit the 360
