    Re: Harmonix announces musical rhythm FPS for PC called Chroma

    read the first few paragraphs and watched the video. seems legit, as long as they dont have dubstep in the game. also curious how they will integrate ambient noise and the actual sound of the weapons firing off. what will be louder, music or ambient noise?

      I think it's an interesting concept and has potential to be an interesting take on both game genres.

      Curious to see how far this will go, considering as I read up on it it's going to use a free to play model.

                Ya, I didn't get an e-mail about it so I probably didn't make it.

                    looks pretty cool, though i'm not too happy about the apparent auto-aim with the engineer's pistols. still in pre-alpha though, so nothing is final.

                    free to play business model is interesting, going to follow this to see where it goes.

                    Released!

                      First pc game I've played. I'm terrible. Can't do the controls at all. -_- I need a controller!

                          I guess I'll be that guy who admits he doesn't see this idea being that great :/

                          Like online FPS/FPS in general already tend to get stale/have their own structure (like people always using the same weapons/using the same hiding places/going about the game with the same strategy every time) so adding something that is even more structured to it like music sounds like this'll get boring within a day.

                          Love you KgZ, but no thanks.

                          EDIT: As an ideal for a one player game where it's more about the experience of going through all these levels, it could be something cool

                            So a few question about the game:

                            Are the songs tied to the levels?
                            Do different songs play on the same levels?
                            Are there songs with a variable bpm?
                            Is the intensity of the firefight tied to the intensity of the song?
                            pack of hard stuffs

                            pack of my stuffs
