Gigantic

[jam1220]

Not sure what I need to say so I'll just assume guys don't know much about it and just tell what I know about it so far

It's a game made by independent game studio Motiga

Gigantic is a free-to-play action game where you and four teammates fight alongside and protect an immense monster called a guardian as you battle another five-player team and defeat their guardian.

you win by charging up your giant monster so he can go beat up the other giant monster.

Spoiler

You do this by getting points by killing the other teams players (well not really "kill" seeing as the character come back. maybe incapacitated is a better word) by claiming lands and summoning tiny monster that give your benefits and hit giant monster in their glowy hole(it doesn't kill it but you stiill get points for it)

Characters you use to do this are

Spoiler

Tyto The Swift. He's a one armed swordsowlman he is fast and slashes and can use his weasel mouse pet friend to do more damage

The Margrave. He lost his right arm so he replaced it with demon arm and now he's a tank. He's got a super jump too (he reminds me of the hulk actually)

Imani. She's a sniper but her gun has like two modes if I remember right,you can be sneaky with her or not

Roland. Another gun person but he's got stuff that helps him slow people down and he's got a grappling hook

Xenobia. She curses other team making them slow or when you hit them your team suck up their health and stuff

Uncle Sven. He makes potions that help teammates like healings or give better jumps and not benefit other team by throwing them at the other team and set them on fire. Alot of people like him

Tripp. Shes a fast sneaky character she makes you bleed and can go invisible

Lord Knossos. He's close range but throws spears to trap people far away so he can go there and beat them up

Charnok. He burns things with fire. he's the guy that attacks with area attacks

The one is HK-206. he's a turret with a tiny backpack. find a good place and light 'em up

Voden. He's a deer man archer thingy. he can shoot the ground and make it poison or make water on the ground and heals and gives super jumps

Vadasi. She heals people with green lazer and hurts people with yellow lazer and has fire balls

Griselma. She teleport hit you teleport and steps up traps

Mozo. she shoots magic and get stronger with the shots and deflects projectiles and teleports

Wu. He is suppose to be the anti melee character who hops arounds and beat up close range guys

Aisling. She the lil' girl character with giant sword who also has a ghost she can uses.

-Art stlye looks all wind wakery
-the chaotixness of the designs (everyone is so different)
-colorful
-giant monsters (the is only two right now but I hope there will be more in the future)
giant monster destroying and reforming the battlefield
-giant griffin when it attacks

it reminds me of a cat
-nice community (well so far at least)
-it's not a first person shooter. I don't like those
-it's not seen in a overhead like view

-It's for Xbox one and Windows 10 and I don't feel like buying Xbox or new Windows when the one I have works just fine(but this computer is getting old so I just might)
-People probably won't like it or playing cause they like League of Legends or Dota and stuff like that
-I only found out about it like last week so I don't know too much

Oh right you should probably visit their site for it to make more sense though

right now it's in alpha and be ready by fall. hopefully by then there will be skins or color alts so everyone does look the same with in the game (you know cause that could be confusing)

Looks pretty cool, but I have no idea how I feel about how it's for Xbone and Windows 10.
At some point you'll need Windows 10 to play it?
That's....
.................Huh.
I haven't heard of a game requiring such a specific OS to operate in a long time

i thinks it's because they partnered up with mircosoft recently
but right now no you don't need windows 10 to play the alpha eventually you will but according to the site windows 10 will be free http://www.gogigantic.com/news/motiga-announces-microsoft-partnership

I believe it's "Free for owners of 7 and 8" so I guess that's still most people.

The game looks nice, I hope it will be less MOBA'ish like for example Smite and more TF2'ish.

The game has a hard time categorizing itself but if you asked me it's a competitive sandbox game

they say the characters takes from most games like rpjs shooters fighters and such. So according to the way they describe it there would be a character like smite(if there isn't already one) and a character like TF2

 

[TheMightyBox]

Oh right this game
I saw it at PAX South but the line was so long I didn't bother trying to actually play it.

I like the art style, it's got a naga character so that's really cool,
really all of the characters have a really neat design, this game just leaks ingenuity.
But I have neither an XBone or a Microsoft computer, so I suppose I'll never be able to play it.

I ment more in general gameplay terms. Cause Smite being all Third Person Persepctive is still a MOBA and I got bored of those. I'd preffer a game where you are more active in combat (like actual aiming at enemies and not just hoping auto-attack kicks in).

 

[jam1220]

like actual aiming at enemies and not just hoping auto-attack kicks in.

actual aiming
for the area like attacks they glow the ground so you know where you're aiming

I'll never be able to play it.

I'm sorry to hear that

 

[Kawalorn]

You talking about this game or Smite? And you know what I mean when I say "actual aiming".

 

[jam1220]

this game you have to aim.
-Like you zoom in on the sniper's gun and position it and aim
-not too sure about the other gunner I think he just shots where ever your facing i don't think he can aim (I haven't seen any gameplay of him yet)
-the deer guy can also aim with his bow
-robot can turn into a turret so he can aim but mostly just shoot bullets everywhere he can

 

[jam1220]

-the deer guy can also aim with his bow

it's more like deer guy zooms in while he gets ready to shoot and he moves around while zoomed in

the stream right now is showing off the bull guy and deer man gameplay right now
