STYX: master of Shadows (stealth, infiltration)
Big fan of the stealth genre so this game piqued my interest. Going to test 3d vision later this week, the game is out today, but i have no time to play nor download on mobile connection atm. Its an UE3 game, hopefully plays well with 3d vision. Pretty cheap too, currently on steam for 23.99 dollars / euros. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmBUHoVHsIc http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hzz2AdLZgg Launch trailer and e3 gameplay.

Would be very good in 3D, these games always bring out the best in 3D when they work. And stealth is one of my favourite genres. But if it has the same engine as Of Orcs And Men, then it will be very broken, and unplayable. In that game, shadows and effects were totally broken, and visuals in general were so bad and consolised, that I could not be bothered to play more than one hour (also due to the boring combat mechanics and the dumbed down simplified gameplay - basically nothing to do apart from some combats while advancing thru narrow corridors that stood for the town or forests).

good suprise as it's UE3 game and works pretty good in 3d with only fews glitchs (smog, some shadows and light) that need to be fix to have a really nice 3D game :) http://photos.3dvisionlive.com/chtiblue/album/54341a71d475fec04000004b/

Yeah i had a look at it as well. Might be playable to some, to me its not. I tried to use CM 3d too, but for some reason none of the CM game profiles worked for me. Normal 3d on startup and couldt switch to CM3d. Tridef Of orcs and men profile with little modifications worked really good.

Look in the .ini files and see if you can find the flag AllowNvidiaStereo3d and set it to true. That sometimes can fix a lot of stuff.

Its same "version" as ethan carter but looks like it needs a lot of work especially concerning hud. TBH, not sure what to do with it since that annoying objective arrow is tied to text. So yea, will happen but on my own time.

Wow, that looks like a pretty good game. What I don't get is why not release it in the dry ass summer months where there were no games rather than be overshadowed by other big releases.

Thanks for the fix, looks great. Too bad you didnt enjoy the game, im having more fun with it than shadow of mordor. So i would recommend to buy it, IF you like stealth games in general. This is a pure stealth game, you basically have no option to go full on lethal like on dishonored. If i get spotted, i can usually survive against 1 guy, but 2 is too much for me and i die.

Tbh, I might be getting old but I lack patience in games now adays. If its not a RPG I don't like to sit around and wait. Its not really that its a bad game but Im just finding less and less enjoyment in stealth/horror genre then I used to.

I'm in the same boat. eqzitara. Stealth games usually end up irking me mainly due to it usually involves waiting around and taking advantage of the games AI systems and enemy patrols. I find it kind of boring these days

I would be thankful to know if the game has descent geometry 3D with helix fix so I can determine does the game worth buying or not. Thanks!

Can wait for others to reply but everything on site is geometry 3D. I talked about it on site but game is "hud heavy" which can be a bit annoying but besides that its good. I will "probably" record a clip now that 3dvisionlive seems working again.
