Controls!
   

Awhile back when G2 got anounced and they named the features it was said the control system would be different, so the character would fight different and run/walk different then in Gothic, oh and the targeting system would change, any sign of this ? i haven't been here for a while...so are there any new gameplay movies out?

Unfortunately no new movies of GII out yet...
But all those facts are true, however!

I do not want new controls because I liked them in G1.

I want new controls because it was main reason in magazines to give this game lower rating.

well you know, it's cool actually....it's great to see how the new controls work, if for instance they really suck for us, then we just go back to our thrusty old controls

CRAP though that the game got delayed because of germany ONCE AGAIN, it happened with Morrowind{which dissapointed me btw] and with Mafia and now once again that bullshit happens with G2 again..can't believe that.

Eh... what do you mean, delayed because of Germany? It's a German game, so you won't have international versions until the German version is done, anyway, as they will be translated from the original. GII was delayed because they want to do a thorough QA this time, unlike with GI. You'd rather have your version now and with 1000 bugs, or later and with a substantially lower number of bugs?
I'd like to say 'no bugs', but I have yet to see an RPG without a single bug.

I liked the controls in G1, and thought they worked well. You kinda had to get used to them, and funny as it sounds I use the same control set up for most games. I use esdf instead of wasd because the f key has the raised point on it. (that may be a us keyboard thing though )

Trying to be patient while waiting for G2....

QA = Quality Assurance = bug hunting.

Well, I can't say the delay was not expected. I can't think of many games which did not have any delays and came out relatively bugfree. In fact some games got delayed years! I'm hoping Gothic 2 will actually come out this year. But you never know. Maybe there'll be snags in the English translation?

I can think of a game that wasn't delayed.

well, than it's for a good cause
they go after the bugs and eliminate them making it for us a much better game, although i didn't encounter that much bugs as alotta people said on the forums back then.

{in gothic1 that is ]

The only bug that hit me in G1 was when Mordrag was trying to shoot his bow and I save the game. Then he wouldn't take me to the new camp. So I just took him over and put away the bow and all worked fine.

There is a spot in the woods that disappears but its not a big deal.

I'm just gald they are spending time making the game what the customer want.
