Le reboot de SOCOM toujours pas prévu

[Pouet]

tiré d'une itw de Shuhei Yoshida :

“In an online game…you know moved on. So much of quality and production values, everything is way, way higher. People have great memories of playing these games many years ago but people’s experiences have moved on as well. So even if they say that they had a great time and they want to experience it again they may not know how much higher their own expectations have become.”

Yoshida further states that it’s a matter of gauging interest and balancing things out. “We have to gauge the interest and what they are saying and what they really want to see or play. We have to balance that with what we can do with the number of people who will enjoy that and we don’t have a good answer to that. So it’s a hard one. We made the game. It’s not like we did not liked the game. We are extremely proud of what our teams have accomplished during that days, but we have to balance everything.”

Bon pour le coup il a un peu raison. Autant c'était un jeu excellent à sa sortie. Autant maintenant, je le vois mal concurrencer qui que ce soit sur les FPS actuels en ligne.

Putain Socom, mon premier jeu en ligne, avec quelques uns des mecs de PF de l'époque.
C'était tellement cool.

Après je suis d'accord que ça va être compliqué d'être au niveau des titres multi actuels. Vu le nombre de flops qu'il y a, c'est chaud de fédérer autant que Socom avait su le faire à l'époque, et de faire passer la majorité des joueurs à autre chose que COD, BF et compagnie.
