Psyonix ha rilasciato un nuovo video di gameplay per Nosgoth, mostrando in anteprima la modalità Siege, ancora non presente nell'alpha. Si tratta di una modalità territoriale in cui la fazione degli umani deve cercare di conquistare e controllare delle postazioni sulla mappa, mentre i vampiri hanno il compito di contrastarli.

00:06Now, you may have heard about it before on the blog, but now you're actually going to get to check
00:11out for the first time ever Siege on Province, which it's all new. So I've never seen this, you know,
00:17you've seen it quite a bit, but the people at home definitely haven't seen it. So tell us about Siege.
00:22So Siege mode is our take on more traditional objective-driven modes like Domination. But what we found developing this
00:30mode, you know, we wanted an objective-based mode. It's a nice alternative team deathmatch where your team has a
00:34goal instead of just kill as many people as possible.
00:37Yeah.
00:37And what we found was, you know, when you play this game, vampires are ridiculously good at moving around the
00:42map, so traditional deathmatch just doesn't work because, you know, Sentinel can literally fly between capture...
00:47Traditional Domination, right?
00:48Yeah, traditional Domination, sorry. And so the focus of this mode is actually human-driven. They have these basically flare
00:55cannons that are calling in reinforcements, and you've got to capture them by standing near them, much like a traditional
01:01Domination mode.
01:02But vampires, their only objective is to prevent this from happening. So they're not capturing, they're just trying to kill
01:06you and basically wipe out all of your lives or reinforcements before you can fire off them.
01:11Yeah, that's right. And the way that this works is you have a certain amount of lives, right? And how
01:17many lives do you have in the team?
01:19So you have 30 lives. So it's similar to team deathmatch, but now, like you said before, there's just an
01:24objective to it.
01:25So looking at Siege here, again, like you said, the objective for the team, capture it. Can the vampires capture
01:32A back just to make sure?
01:34They can't. So once it's captured, it basically deactivates, and you have to capture. There's always two objectives at a
01:40time to give you some choice.
01:41You know, we don't want to railroad you into one spot and have the vampires just lurking.
01:45So we give the human team a little bit of choice, but once you've captured one, you have to get
01:49the other.
01:49Okay. And there's a certain amount of time that you have before it unlocks, and then, you know, you end
01:55up having to repeat the cycle all over again.
01:57So there's five to six points in each map. You'll cycle through them all in a full match.
02:02And how do they, so humans have captured the manor. So they capture the manor now.
02:06So that can went off two new objectives have appeared because they got the initial two.
02:10Okay.
02:10So now they're just moving on. They decide as a team.
02:12So C and E are open now.
02:13Yeah, so it looks like they're heading to C, so they're going to try and get C before the vampires
02:17get here.
02:17They're doing pretty good. They're up 10 to 3.
02:19And they score points for getting to the two captures, right?
02:24It's not necessarily, I'm accumulating points because I'm holding it for X amount of time.
02:29It's purely based on captures.
02:31Okay, cool.
02:32So we're seeing, we didn't see this in the last game. Alex is playing the scout, who's our long-range
02:37specialist.
02:38The way the bow works is you can rapid-fire it pretty quickly if you're in close-range combat,
02:43but it's most powerful if you take the time to fully draw it back using the right mouse button.
02:47Okay.
02:48And what he switched to is one of the most fun weapons in the game.
02:51This is the war bow, and what it'll do is if you reach full charge with it,
02:54and it takes about two and a half seconds.
02:56He just camouflaged, so he's invisible right now.
02:58Okay, I like, I like.
03:00If you reach full, so he can charge while he's invisible.
03:02If you reach full charge, you can actually knock down your, how many got attacked?
03:05He's in trouble.
03:06Yeah, that's not good.
03:08So it's a cool bow because if you pull off a full charge, you can knock people down, even out
03:12of the air.
03:12So if you tag a sentinel who's flying, he'll actually follow the earth and take damage.
03:16Wow.
03:17So it's incredibly satisfying to use, but it's slower and a little bit weaker than the regular bow.
03:22So it really just benefits from that full charge.
03:24Right, and it's a great team weapon.
03:26You're knocking people down on your teammates, but it's a little harder to dominate with it.
03:30Oh, and gets attacked there by that reaver.
03:33So if he's smart, he's probably going to pop his camouflage here and run.
03:36Good call, good call.
03:37Someone's played quite a bit, and he's hunting too.
03:40He's hunting.
03:41It was at charge.
03:42Oh, he whiffed.
03:44He's having a little trouble.
03:45But that's the thing, right?
03:46So if you whiff that shot...
03:48You're in trouble.
03:49Yeah, yeah.
03:49If they get near you, and he knows that, so now he's going to change up to the storm bow
03:52here.
03:53So the storm bow actually shoots explosive arrows that do AoE damage.
03:56I love it.
03:56And they'll stick to the point of impact.
03:58So they explode about two seconds after you shoot.
04:01So you can actually use them as, like, not proximal, but mines, basically.
04:05If you see people coming, you could lace the ground with explosives before they get to you.
04:10And how much damage does it do?
04:12It's fairly comparable to the base bow, except it's AoE, but you have a smaller clip.
04:16So you're basically trading off amount of ammo for explosive shots.
04:21Okay, okay.
04:22And it doesn't matter, like, whether you charge a shot or not.
04:25It does.
04:26The charge shot does more damage, just like with the regular bow.
04:28Okay, but it still sticks, no matter what.
04:30Yeah, it's always a sticky projectile.
04:32And that's the compound bow?
04:34The power is driven.
04:34So he's going to the stock bow.
04:35That's my favorite.
04:37It's the one you get for free when you just play the scout.
04:40Just gets the job done.
04:41Yeah, it's very effective.
04:42So it's the best all-around bow, probably.
04:44The other bows have their perks, but this is the most, you know, rounded.
04:47And what are the two abilities that he's using there?
04:49So he's using the throwing knives, which are a really good reactionary.
04:53Where the hunter has the bolo that knocks somebody up,
04:55the scout has more quickly firing, more damaging throwing knives
04:58that will stun a vampire briefly.
05:00So it doesn't buy you as much time as the bolo does,
05:02but it's a little more offensive driven, and it's a little quicker to get out.
05:05So you can use it in a pinch when your bow is not fully charged up
05:09to buy yourself some time.
05:10Okay.
05:11And he's also got the turret, which is a sort of mechanical device
05:15that does AOE damage, so he'll throw it out at some point.
05:18There goes a takeoff.
05:20Sentinels is gone.
05:21Just in time.
05:21Just in time, because actually he was going to get obliterated there
05:25by that alchemist, so that's not good.
05:28And, oh, there you can see there actually it's getting contested,
05:31so they're going to have to fight this one off,
05:33but they have managed to cap it.
05:35And they're doing pretty well.
05:36Yeah, they're up by just a little bit.
05:38So, again, so they don't get points for kills.
05:41Right.
05:41So your only goal as a human in this is to basically fend off
05:44the vampires that you capture.
05:46So as a vampire, you do have a longer respawn time,
05:49so there's more of a penalty for death in this mode.
05:51Okay.
05:51So humans, you know, you want to kill people
05:53to get them out of the fight for a while,
05:54but the real goal is to keep the capture going over.
05:57Now, earlier...
05:58...the best kill death ratio.
05:59Earlier when we were talking about, like,
06:01competitive gaming and eSports and all that kind of stuff,
06:04you know, there is more of a tendency in competitive gaming
06:07to see the objective-based game modes.
06:11Yeah.
06:11Right.
06:11Is that something that you personally,
06:13just, you know, as someone who would see competition,
06:15you would see a game type like this being used over, say,
06:19Team Deathmatch?
06:20It's possible.
06:21I mean, there's a lot of history, too,
06:23with things like Quake or, you know,
06:25other strictly TDM games being successful.
06:28But it definitely introduces an extra layer of strategy
06:31that I can see being relevant in eSports.
06:33You know, it introduces the idea of, you know,
06:36teams working together for something other than just killing people.
06:38So I can see why that would help differentiate
06:40a top-tier team from somebody a couple steps down.
06:43Okay, for sure, for sure.
06:44I think, you know, because obviously as that question goes
06:47and people are trying to establish, like,
06:49oh, what will be played, right?
06:51And, you know, now, like, you see with, like,
06:53first-person shooter games, like, you know,
06:55Call of Duty or something like that,
06:56you don't see Team Deathmatch.
06:57Oh, that was a great shot.
06:59Oh, man.
07:00He smacked him right out of the sky.
07:01Nice.
07:02Oh, goodness, that was great.
07:03He's in trouble, huh?
07:04Yeah.
07:05When a reaver pounces on you and a tyrant's right behind you,
07:07chances are it's not going to work out very well.
07:10So you can see his kill death isn't great.
07:12He's two and six right now, but his team's winning.
07:14So, you know, it's nice to have these modes,
07:17especially for players.
07:18We've had a lot of players that say, you know,
07:20I love the game, but I don't want to chase a kill death ratio,
07:23and this is a great way to avoid that, you know?
07:25It's more about this mode really favors things like Alchemist
07:28with the healing skill because it's more about sustaining your team
07:30and capturing and just murdering as many people as possible.
07:33That was actually a great grenade.
07:35There goes the takeoff.
07:36You can never get away from that takeoff.
07:38They are pretty quick.
07:39It looks like vampires have actually taken the lead here at the end,
07:41but if the humans can get one objective, they will win.
07:44Yeah, and they're going after eight.
07:45So this is going to be pretty close.
07:46Now, the more humans you have on an objective,
07:48it goes faster.
07:49It goes faster, exactly.
07:50Of course, of course.
07:51Oh, this isn't good.
07:5428.
07:55You've got to get this objective.
07:57Okay, this is pretty intense.
07:59This is pretty intense.
08:00Oh, vampire victory.
08:00There you go.
08:01So now 25.
08:03So it's a five-point lead here.
08:05If they can win by five or more,
08:07they will win.
08:08Oh, the tension's rising.
08:10So two and seven he went on the other side.
08:14Yeah, it was a little tough,
08:14but he had a bunch of assists,
08:15and his team almost won.
08:16Yeah, yeah.
08:17All right, so now we have, let's see.
08:19I think he's going to play some Tyrant, probably.
08:21Oh, yes.
08:22I haven't seen that yet.
08:23Love the Tyrant.
08:24It's probably like one of my favorite classes.
08:26And he's using ground slam and...
08:28Enrage.
08:29Enrage.
08:29So, no, what does Enrage do?
08:31What do those two abilities do?
08:32Kind of like on the Reaver that we talked about earlier,
08:35the Enrage is the offensive option
08:37for the F ability for the Tyrant.
08:41So it actually powers you more
08:42the more damage you take.
08:44So it has a base level
08:45that makes you run faster and do more damage.
08:47So you can just pop it at full health if you want,
08:49but if you're at half,
08:50you do significantly more than that.
08:52Okay.
08:52So you get stronger and stronger
08:54the lower your health is.
08:55So the humans have to be actually pretty scared
08:57of an Enrage Tyrant
08:58because as they try to kill him,
08:59it gets stronger and stronger.
09:00Oh, that ground slam.
09:02So that was a pretty good combo.
09:03The ground slam is an AoE stun,
09:05and if you can pull off a charge
09:07and knock them down first,
09:08you can sort of chain them.
09:10Yeah, you just got a double kill.
09:11So this is a good chance to talk about
09:12how our health system works.
09:14The vampires do have passive regeneration,
09:17but only up to a point.
09:18So they can regen minor wounds, basically.
09:21So if you get clipped a few times
09:23from across the mat by a crossbow,
09:25it's not a big deal
09:26because you'll regenerate that off.
09:28But the bulk of the time you need
09:30to actually execute a human to heal
09:32so every time you kill a human,
09:33they can basically have the blood
09:35drained out of them.
09:36And each class has unique execution moves.
09:39And it takes some time
09:40and can be interrupted,
09:41so you have to do it in a safe place
09:43and we allow you to actually pick up
09:44and drag bodies away from danger.
09:47But the second you get shot, though,
09:48you end up dropping that.
09:49So that's kind of like the catch-22 there, right?
09:51So he's going to execute here.
09:54Looks like he's...
09:55Actually, he saw someone.
09:57Boom!
09:58Look, he got all four.
10:00And he's enraging,
10:01so he's going to be really powerful here.
10:03Yeah, yeah.
10:03Ended up picking up, I think, one kill.
10:05You can see he's running a bit faster right now.
10:07War off, though.
10:08But he'll probably get this kill, too.
10:10I don't know if it's a firewall.
10:11Yeah, firewalls.
10:12So he's low health right now.
10:13He's going to try and feed on this, probably.
10:16Yeah.
10:17So you get half of your life back
10:18if you successfully execute someone.
10:21And it's an instant regeneration.
10:23Versus the...
10:24Yeah, so the passive stuff takes time.
10:26You have to basically not take damage
10:28for about 10 seconds for it to kick in,
10:30but the execution destroys you instantly.
10:32Okay, okay.
10:32Very cool, very cool.
10:33So a risk as a human is if you see a guy executing,
10:36you might run up and try to interrupt it,
10:38but if he pulls it off in time,
10:41you're in trouble.
10:42And you might see some advanced players know
10:44when to engage in a situation
10:48versus just kind of hanging back.
10:50We're like, all right, he already gained health,
10:51but oh, my goodness.
10:53Huck just could not do anything there.
10:55This tyrant is on a roll.
10:56Yeah, he really is.
10:58Alex is doing a great job.
11:00I have to say, man,
11:02I'm looking at this,
11:02and even I'm getting some tips.
11:04So I feel pretty good.
11:05Man, just dead people everywhere.
11:07They did capture...
11:07It looks like the humans got one objective,
11:09but they're definitely struggling.
11:10I think that they're feeling better.
11:13You know, that loss was a wake-up call for them.
11:15Yeah.
11:16You know, Alex decided to rally the troops,
11:18make some magic happen, of course.
11:20Looks like Team Alex is definitely in the lead.
11:22You know, Team Alex or Team Huck?
11:25You know, like, that's just what it is.
11:27Team Jacob?
11:28Yeah, no.
11:29I didn't want to bring up that reference,
11:31but then it kind of went in that direction,
11:33so I'm a little embarrassed.
11:34Okay, so yes, jump attack.
11:36Thank you.
11:36This is my favorite, too.
11:38So he's switching to a totally different loadout.
11:40So he's got jump, which lets you leap incredibly high in the air,
11:43but it takes some skill to aim
11:45because you don't have a ton of air control.
11:47Okay.
11:47So you've got to pick your spot,
11:49basically decide when to take off,
11:50and try to land on people.
11:51So we'll see how good he can do.
11:53Oh, this is going to be cool.
11:54He also switched to ignore pain,
11:55so instead of enraged,
11:56what this basically does is harden your skin,
11:58and you take 80% less damage.
11:59So it makes him an incredibly good...
12:01That's a pretty good jump.
12:02Oh!
12:03And now he's probably going to try a shockwave here.
12:05So we saw the ground slam last life.
12:07The shockwave lets you trade out the radial damage
12:11for a much longer range but line-targeted stun.
12:14Okay.
12:15So he basically brings up, you know,
12:17opens up the earth under him
12:18and sends like a pillar of knockdown in front of him in a line.
12:22So you get a little bit more range on your stun,
12:24but you don't hit everybody in the area anymore.
12:26Yeah, yeah.
12:26Well, one thing we've learned here
12:28is that Huck's team's not the best with humans.
12:31No, apparently not.
12:32You know, on the other side there,
12:33it took quite an effort for them to be able to win that one.
12:35So, oh, look at that jump.
12:36This is going to be a short jump.
12:38Yeah, he didn't quite do that, right?
12:39Well, no, he had to make a call there
12:40because he was getting shot in midair, so...
12:42Yeah, here comes that shockwave.
12:44Oh, jeez.
12:45What a great lineup on that one.
12:47And so he's tanking right now.
12:48So what I like to do when I play Brutalot
12:50is what he's doing, which is, you know,
12:52get your damage ejection up
12:53and actually intercept projectiles.
12:55So, you know, the humans might not choose to attack you
12:58if they see you're invincible,
12:59but you can actually block bullets
13:01or alchemist bombs with your body.
13:04Okay, okay.
13:04So like if an alchemist...
13:05It's a human shield, basically.
13:06So if an alchemist shoots in front of a vampire shield,
13:08so if an alchemist shoots their projectile,
13:11will it explode on impact if you're standing right in front?
13:15Yeah, and she will actually take some damage from her own bomb.
13:17So if you crowd her,
13:19you can actually get her to kill herself by shooting bombs.
13:21Oh, wow.
13:22So that's some, like, you know, advanced thinking.
13:25Yeah, right, definitely.
13:25You know, that's pretty sick, though,
13:28that you can get to that point thought-wise
13:30and be like, all right, well, you know,
13:32let's see where the situation is.
13:34There's a lot of closed-off areas,
13:35ooh, this isn't good,
13:36but might actually bust out that, you know,
13:38the more pain and try and make something happen
13:40any second now,
13:41which isn't going to be good.
13:42It's actually at 135.85.
13:44Did not get a chance to do it.
13:48They have a pretty comfortable margin of victory,
13:50but I think he's going to try a little Sentinel.
13:51Sentinel gameplay, I like.
13:56Yeah, we saw a little bit of the Sentinel earlier.
13:59A couple, you know, sweeps
14:01and being able to pick people up.
14:03It's like he's got a different skin on.
14:04This is the hammerhead skin, as you call it.
14:06Yeah, I actually saw this one.
14:08Very, very unique design.
14:09Yeah, it's pretty cool.
14:10And now the humans, of course,
14:13have a long road to victory here.
14:15Definitely.
14:15They get five points for every cap, though.
14:17Yes, they do.
14:17So if they were somehow able
14:19to capture three points without dying,
14:22which is fairly unlikely.
14:23Now one life left.
14:25They could theoretically win,
14:26but it's not looking too good.
14:28Yeah, and the other thing to bear in mind as well,
14:30and something I've noticed,
14:31is the humans,
14:32and there you see it right there.
14:33So it seems like Alex's team
14:35with a deciding 10-point victory in Siege.
14:37Something I noticed was they weren't sticking together.
14:39They weren't working well with one another.
14:41No, they seem to struggle with that this game.
14:43So that will definitely spell your doom
14:44if you don't coordinate very well.
14:46So you can see Amazing Hawk on the other team.
14:48Our all-star was 1-8,
14:50so he must have just had an off game.
14:52Oh, man.
14:53Well, actually, Siege was fun.
14:56That looked great.
14:56I would say it's a great twist
14:59on what you'll commonly see on Deathmatch,
15:02and I think it lends itself really well to Nosgoth.
15:05So that's pretty cool stuff there.
15:07All right, so when we come back,
15:08we're going to have our third and final game.
