TP Hype Thread II: The Revenge!!!

I think that he may be finishing off the jump attack in that pic. Or it could be an all new move...which would be awesome. I too am wondering how many attacks link will learn. Since Zelda never really goes into big numbers with things like that, I'm gonna guess about five.

Well OoT did that, yes.

AEF: Yes, there is a Z button on the Nunchuck that you use.

???

vacumgod, that would explain the game's T rating

I believe you use the Z button on the nunchuk, I may be wrong though. Anyway, the Z button is the big trigger on the Nunchuk and the C is a small button above it.

Is the shield automatic this time? You know, since there's no button designated to it. Anyone know how it works?

It is. Doesn't pushing the Nunchuck forward get you a shield shove maneuver?

???

Yeah, that's how it works.

There are seven special attacks to learn.

EDIT: You can only do the shield bash if you have an enemy Z-targeted.

When you people mention the second embargo, you're talking about Matt Casamassina's article about his ten-hour esperience with TP right? And the second embargo refers to when he says he has to wait awhile before he can add to the article? (Which is long enough already, although a little more won't hurt).

I apologize for being so lost, I just stopped keeping up with this thread at about page 50.

His, and other people's. No editor that has played TP Wii is allowed to say anything past the beggining of the first dungeon.

Kotaku has an FAQ on TP on their site. What was troubling to me is that there is NO day/night system in the game! The Twilight realm seemingly takes the place of 'night' in Zelda: TP. I must say, this is a dissapointment

Edit: Looks like this was discussed on the 'Future Zelda' forum. The conclusion was reached that it was bull***** due to the picture of Wolf Link looking over the misty castle/trees with the moon in the background. Sorry to scare everyone

Hmm I don't know, something doesn't seem right about that. Their goal was to make it realistic, and that is one of the things they needed. Plus we see night and day in the trailers. I don't get it.

That article is fake, just look at this thread.

Thank goodness, he sounded like he didn't like the game.

Why would Kotaku do that? They usually seem like a very respectable website...well, they did.

Anyway, dicussion point, what does everyone think we'll be able to ride aside from the horse (if anything)?

The Boars.

Some of the previews mentioned the end of the first temple if I'm not mistaken. I think the next set of previews are going to talk about what happens between the end of the forest temple and the second temple (which is the goron mines, confirmed by Matt himself).

Well I definatly won't be looking at them. I've had my share of spoilers, I think I can wait 10 days, 12 hours, 38 minutes and 43 seconds.

Phew! It´s too good to know that the article was fake. But I still have my doubts.

About the day/night system, I´m (almost, thanks to this crap) sure that it will be integrated.

And about the size of the overworld... that´s a fine size, but remember, there are plenty of other areas! And overflowing with detail, sidequests, NPCs, things to just look at, and all that stuff. Plus, I´m quite sure that you will enjoy just roaming the beatifully designed landscapes aimlessly.

There is definately a day/night system in the normal world. The twilight is always in the hazy-like state and doesn't change, but normal hyrule definately has night and day. I even remember seeing a picuture of Ordon village in the night.

EDIT: In Matt's preview he even says that "It's twilight and a real-time sequence focuses on a blacksmith named Rusl and his apparent apprentice, Link". Thats taken straight from Matt and that is how TP begins. So yes, there will be day/night cycles....and very advanced ones at that.
