Either way, this sort of stuff isn't what we want for the 405th or any of our members, so we don't really allow our members to Publicly explain or detail how they managed to remove the game assets and files. In others, the consequences can be a little more severe. In some cases, it's something as simple as a DMCA - the corporate equivalent of 'please take that stuff down'.

The generic legal tagline usually goes along the lines of: "You will not modify or in any way alter or tamper with this software beyond its intended purpose". Breaking into that game's software to access the resources it uses violates the terms of that contract - regardless of your intent. Whenever you purchase a game, you're entering into a legal contract to use that game for its intended purpose, and nothing more. We all benefit from the results of those members who extract assets, and 343i and MS sort of turn a blind eye to us hosting them and permutations of them modified for Pep and Foam, (likely due to the fact that these assets enable this community to exist, which in turn allows us to promote and support their franchise) but we don't want to kick the hornet’s nest by discussing how these resources ended up here.Īt the end of the day asset ripping goes against the Terms and Services you see when installing or buying a game. It is a legally complex topic, to say the least, and its implications for us are just as complex. See, Asset ripping isn't a topic we encourage to be discussed here on the 405th. I have edited out Phauxelate's original post to remove the references to exactly how he removed the files from the game. And the melee combat is drastically different.Hello Everyone. As he said, Space Marine does NOT have a cover mechanic. The bug guys are like the flood hopefully the multiplayer of CA is as. The soldiers are like elites 2.The guys with shields are like jackals 3. Halo is one of the coolest games out there. Gears is a simple game, and it only takes simple things to imitate a simple thing like gears. Thats not neccisarily a bad thing though. Most third person shooters these days play very much like Gears in that regard. It's a third person over the shoulder shooting game with cover mechanics and reticule feedback. Space marine has melee combat and it does not even have a cover system.Of course it plays like Gears. From what I have seen it plays nothing like gears, except for both being third person shooters. That said, if he's claiming Space Marine as a rip-off of Warhammer (i don't think he is, just naming similarities) then all your rage is justified. All he is doing is saying Space Marine plays a hell of a lot like Gears, which in fact, does. He knows Warhammer has been around much much longer than any Microsoft anything and he says that very clearly.

Although, this is the game writer who reviewed Mass Effect and didn't know you could upgrade your characters.

Does he not realize Warhammer has been around much, much longer than both Halo and Gears? He's complaining that the original series is ripping off the rip offs. The guy who wrote it(Dean Takahashi) is meant to be a prominent game journalist too. Of course, their very name does bear resemblance to the “orcs” in Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, but we’ll ignore that for now. The bad guys are the green Ork enemies from the Warhammer world, and they bear no resemblance to the enemies in Gears of War, except that they make loud grunts. Of course, since the THQ guys had a handy explanation of the difference so readily available, it seemed like they knew they were going to get asked that question.
In fact, this universe predates the existence of Gears of War, so you might argue that Gears of War copies Warhammer 40,000. When I asked the THQ folks about this, they immediately pointed out that this game was set in the Warhammer universe, which has its own rich and original lore. The guns shoot in a similar fashion and the Space Marines wield a big giant hammer that resembles the blasting hammers not from Gears of War but from Microsoft’s other sci-fi franchise, Halo. The blood spatters are also quite similar. The guns are huge and they feature a chainsaw blade that can be used to slice enemies in half, execution style, similar to the “chainsaw bayonet” of the Gears soldiers. When you aim a gun in Space Marine, the target reticle is huge, just like the target reticle in Gears of War. Start with the over-sized armor and bodybuilder physiques of the marines. But the similarities between THQ’s third-person shooter game, developed by its Relic Entertainment studio, and Microsoft’s Gears of War third-person shooter series, developed by Epic Games, are just piling up by the dozen.
