All I see is some portal being opened and some schoolgirl with ponytails and red lit-up eyes appearing shortly and screeming something with an echo behind it.

I see now, so this "Bird-Of-Prey"- thingie is the new logo?

when you hit the prey site, it'll end with either: coming-soon.html or comingsoon.html.

I found out what "Joanie Loves Tchotchkes" means.

Apparently, that phrase is from a smartmoney article.

Tchotchkes is the stuff that companies send customers to say, "Hey, we're thinking of you, [fill in name]...Happy Holidays" — the subtext of which is "We sent you and thousands of other people a [fill in item] so that you'll keep buying our widgets."

Also found (i think) about bergmanator.

Bergmanator seems to be a nickname of someone in texas. I found their website... i don't know if it's a skitting name or something, but it's not a common thing to be saying. Although i don't know exactly what it refers to.





Another interesting thing about this nickname is that the only place i found it no longer exists anymore and it was hosted on http://www.bravenet.com/... Talon Brave anyone? Seems like 3DR pulled a lot of "local" folklore/character into this.....

Anyone here from or around Texas?

[EDIT]

Been looking at the songs listed on the right side of the page....

Running Man is a song by Fancy. Look the lyrics up. IMO they are in keeping with the ideas behing Prey.

Humpty-Hump a song by rap artist "Shock G". I read the lyrics, but i don't see any link. TBH i'm slightly scared by those "packets".

Cha Cha. Well, this one is quite interesting. Apart from being a song/music, this is also used quite a lot with prey.

From someone who did Predator "Castes":


Predators have a total of Seven Descriptions of Life

4. Cha
"Honored prey" They must be capable of sending us to the Deity.




Cha is also referenced with predators (not just the ficticious film and comic ones) stalking their prey.

And finally another interesting one and the only ticked song:

Macarena
The actor Vincent Ventresca played a part in a TV film (pilot) and series called Prey - about evolved humans in our midst, trying to kill us all in a survival of the fittest type thing.

There's also a place called Sierra de la Macarena.



“In Colombia, the Sierra de la Macarena, an obscure geological anomaly covered with a living evolutionary laboratory”

“Why is the Sierra de la Macarena so important? The Macarena is the convergence point of six major ecological and geological forces, each exerting its own unique pressure on the local flora and fauna. The end result is a high rate of mutation. The Sierra de la Macarena has been called a biological hothouse.”




Very interesting......

Biologically enhanced or evolved humans? Hunters? I hope this site continues to get better as the weeks and months go on.....

Well - I really love the concept of Prey as presented in the old videos. I like the environments, colours, variety, of course I love the concept of dynamic portals (hopefully restored in this version).

I DON'T like plastic looking games. I don't believe 3DR & HH would pull such thing off - that is I don't want to believe it. I think that after FarCry and especially Doom 3 the message from the gamers about this matter was clear enough. It's not moaning, just judging what we have right now.

My sentiments exactly, yossa - except that I don't share your faith that Human Head/3DR can or will change anything about that specific visual characteristic of the DooM III engine (if that is indeed the technology the game is built on).

Woah --- easy there. Not all gamers think like that. I liked the look of Doom³. And even if the graphics look rather 'plastic' ATM - the next generations of graphics cards will be available sooner or later and then Things will start looking better.

It's not question of future graphics technology. We have everything we need now to create realistic skin. Just take a look at HL2.

In fact, it's theoretically possible to replicate CGI quality rendering on current hardware. Shaders were the last major technological leap, and now we have them anything is possible as far as visual quality goes.

We're not seeing realistically envisaged characters because developers don't see this as important. Nobody besides Valve have done anything to advance the quality of lip synching, most facial animation looks plain awful. Having said that, look at the quality of the NPCs in the released DNF media.

http://www.duke4.de/pic.php/gfx/screenshots/e32001-31.jpg

So there's still reason to hope.

Not until consumer hardware supports realistic reflection, refraction, radiosity and photon lighting it's not. Heck, we can't even push enough polygons in real-time yet.

Kristian Joensen said:

Right, I'm talking about offline rendering here, and I'm just going by what Carmack is saying.

It's particularly significant because those are the only features that are necessary with temporary buffering to actually implement anything. You can decompose Pixar Renderman shaders into multi-passes. It doesn't mean that they can run in real time, but the fact that they can be calculated on a graphics card has a wide range of implications on what you want to do for the graphics pipeline. It's going to impact both real-time rendering and off-line rendering. There is going to be an interesting convergence.

You might use 50 or 100 potential instructions in some really complex gaming shader; but if the engine is architected right, you would be able to use the exact same engine, media creation, and framework and architect the whole thing to do TV-quality or eventually even movie-quality rendering that might use thousands of instructions and render ridiculous resolutions. The ability to use the same tools for that entire spectrum is going to be a little different from what we have now.

of course we already know liquid development helped human head/3dr with producing some characters for prey.

Western Cherokee set up its government in Tahlequah, Oklahoma. The Cherokee National Capital was built.

Because Talon Brave is an American Indian, and many of the clues on that site are related to tribes.

TommyHawk.com seems to be nothing but a single page with a SWF and a link that deep links into a real website. This seems weird considering the real website has different info on their homepage and the two domains are owned by different people - so I think impersonating was an ok description.

Perhaps its a clue or Tom Barth (who makes a miniature guitar called the TommyHawk) asked Joe to transfer the domain and instead Joe just said gimme your home page (but seems a bit far fetched). I'm just trying to find either a clue or an explanation for the discrepancy.

If putting up the page was deliberate then we get some nice music out of it. Perhaps a local band in the game? Speculating and concluding without real facts is fun!

The flash-based site was started in 2003. The content in the flash is very similar to what was in the site in 1998. For the theory of it meaning something, 3DR would have to have bought the domain in 2003. Do you really think they would have a clue hanging out there since then?

The copywright on the site is Tom Barth. He filed for a trademark for "The original Tommy Hawk" in 1995, and it is still live.

The first filing of the name "Tommy Hawk" by Apogee was in 1998, which died in 2001. Two new ones were brought up again in 2002 and 2003, which are still live.

There is nothing pointing to any releavence at all.

Being right and not feeling happy about it, I know the feeling.

[Giblet]

"Plastic people" is caused by over use of specular. It's used to create more hash looking detail in the models by enhancing the bumpmapping which in conjuntion with the lighting you do get that shiny look, but I don't think it's a reason to cry. It's barely noticable when actually moving in game. Screenshots open themselves to intense scrutiny and flaws are apparent.

Turn off the specular and you get HL2 style flat textures. You can bump up the res too. Trust me, the same style will be used in future engines (It's being done in UE3) but when the textures are so low res everything looks kind of ..wierd. Bumping up the res serves to limit the performance of the game, but it makes the effect more realistic.

It's really a design choice, you could easily leave out the specular map.

[Rider]

the source on the Prey.com site has been changed, now it says:


The Source Code says: Evil draws near. From beyond the veil of the world you understand. You cannot turn your back on your heritage any longer. From it you will draw strength. All your life you have rejected the ways of your ancestors. The beliefs of your people. But now you must embrace them, if you are to survive.

[Parkar]

A specular adjustment setting so the player can adjust the brigthness of the specular maps just like gamma/brightness/saturation settings would be realy nice.

Translation:

"Evil draws near. From beyond the veil of the world you understand. You cannot turn your back on your heritage any longer. From it you will draw strength. All your life you have rejected the ways of your ancestors. The beliefs of your people. But now you must embrace them, if you are to survive."

It has already been translated.

Enough with this "OMG IT LOOKS LIKE PLASTIC!" crap, seriously. The game looks gorgeous.

I'm just wondering when the prey website is going to "go live" so to speak.

[Ivan]

I was searching for the online site of one of my friend's school and I typed in: louisriel[dot]com and ended up on a site similar to Prey's one, but there was no animation. (http://apps5.oingo.com/apps/domainpark/domainpark.cgi?client=netw8744&s=louisriel.com)

On another note, as for now I don't plan to change my computer, maybe end 2007 I will do. If DNF comes out before, hopefully, I'll play it on my dad's new computer.

I'm sure there's where 3DR ripped the design/ graphics off of.

Also, I like how the text under Talequah Communications changed from: "This site is under Consumption and Comming Soon" to: "Your Changing Source for Communications". Subtle. http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Yes it was modelled to represent a domain parked site so people got turned off and/or act suprised when the portal thingy came up.

Well you do know we found the other binary code in the source right? http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

[Claws]

Actually there is a much bigger hint at the lower right corner.

[mallow man]

Presumably this meant that the source code will change every now and then to revel new information - changing source for communication.

[Eclipse]

No, really?! You don't say! http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
