@@notawildfox wouldnt that in theory allow for more """freedom""" in terms of development (i.e. gore, animations and actions available, etcetc)? i have no idea regarding Roblox age restriction and whether it uplifts certain restrictions of its own. though as an Hellmet fan (and by extent, Ready or Not fan) - this is really well-done on its own accord. consider me a fan, since i got this vid recommended to me on a whim!
@@somerandomone yeah but the engine itself is already extremely limiting anyway. Really wish we had shaders so i could slap on some motion blur, lens distortion, chromatic abberation, allat good stuff. Root motion and many other things is a necessity, and it's really pathetic how the engine doesn't have these yet. Recently they released the editable mesh / image API (which allows you to create/edit meshes/images in realtime), but for security reasons they thought locking it behind ID verification would solve potential misuse. Me writing a parser that takes the pixels of an NSFW image and rebuilds it using frames/parts also yeah I think the algorithm is having some fun
It's ok, so the game audience will be set to 17+, so there will be no idiot who does things carelessly btw 4 people co-op? So what can we play as? I mean the operator codename
comparing hellmet to apex will be like comparing doors to pressure (the successor is more polished and sophisticated than its precursor) (FYI: both is good)
@@PlurbleAce yeah i had a compulsion to reiterate, i wonder if theres gonna be more HELLMET-likes in the future (perferably not crammed with microtransactions)
WOW! this looks super amazing!! I'm excited for it, and I hope there will be some kind of skill tree heheh. Props to having the most realistic lockpicking minigame I've ever seen in a breach & clear style shooter.
progression elements are something we're working towards. I'm thinking of doing perks or something. Currently however we've added a new gimmick called utilities, they're items that can be slotted and used as a passive booster (such as mag tape, which increases the reload speed due to the tape's grippiness when applied to magazines, or the gun cleaning kit which increases accuracy & reduces jamming) I dont want to make the game too gimmicky though. Thanks for the feedback The lockpicking is inspired by ARES VR's lockpicking minigame and i thought it'd be cool Thanks for recognizing it
Menu from old builds of SCP Secret Lab, pressure like file view, tarkov like inventory, ready or not like gameplay, hellmet view, isle hacking minigame and lore hiding as a impact frame... I am intrigued.
I would say this would be better than hellmet, but I don't think it's fair to compare the two considering one was made by a team whilst one was made out of a solo developer :/ edit: forgot to add but this shit looks so clean though god DAYUM
Yeah definitely. Though sensei does take contributions from time to time. One of my contributions was me donating apex's pathfinding system & tools to HELLMET. You can find my name on here devforum.roblox.com/t/hellmet-credits/2875303
Can't wait to play this with homies, we will get through the mission cautiously and strategically (My friends will die the first and shoot everything they see)
This is basically Ready or Not with hellmet cam mod in roblox. And personally I'm a hellmet and Ready or Not fan and then when I see this game it feels like hellmet but with other theme so I'm really excited for it to come out.
As a long time Ready or Not player - who played it when it still was a PvP game, and uninstalled it after the official launch because of the stupid superhuman AI - I'm quite looking forward to this👍 Though I rarely play any Roblox game at all😅
The game looks awesome! Quick question, is the music taken from any media or is it made specifically for this game? I couldn't find any mention of the person making it/the name of the soundtrack.
Would be great if there were "shot placement dependant" death animations like in RoN. The fact you can shoot a suspect in the leg and he has a chance to grab it and fall over while trying to balance definitely adds to the immersion. Looks like a great game nonetheless, especially for a roblox (presumably) passion project. Keep the good work up.
if sensei's (the creators of dvn and hellmet) server was still opened, you'd probably get attention around there, maybe even get flamed cool showcase btw, keep up da good work
I hope the optimization for this game is good enough so that low end pcs and/or laptops could run this. This looks really fun! Might consistently play both this and Hellmet whenever I have time.
yeah cuz apparently hellmet invented helmet cam or something lol. People complain from time-to-time about the game being a clone of hellmet, and while it kind of is, it's mostly because of the perspective. Remove the perspective and the game becomes a generic FPS/RON shooter. I'd prefer something unique, since helmet-cam story games are really rare on the platform and "bodycam" (fps with a grain filter) has been milked already. Sensei's idea of the helmet camera perspective was really genius though, not because it's unique, but because it actually works from a gameplay standpoint. If it was bodycam it'd be a generic fps shooter, or if you wanted realism, you'd have your arms covering the camera, which would obscure vision and ruin the gameplay.
I would really recommend not to rush this, you can take like 6-8 more months to make 3 more missions and skill trees. So players you can keep player occupied before your second update. Still, take your time dude, don’t rush
Man I sure hope this game doesnt die out after 2 weeks! *Clueless* In all seriousness though, your game looks absolutely phenomenal. I just wish to god that games like Detriment, Pasta Clash, Timebomb Madness, and Cracked Combat didnt die out. It genuinely made me a broken man. Also I have an idea, if you shoot an unnarmed mans leg, they would start screaming in pain and begging for mercy, and if you shoot an armed mans leg, they'd start shooting at you, and if you are gone they'd use bandages and stuff to sorta heal.
This looks absolutely amazing! Do you guys intend on a original soundtrack as well? Can't risk all the effort just because of some copyrighted tracks. Looking forward to the finished product
Ngl the lockpicking seems cool and all, but busting open doors feel more fitting an option for operatives. Maybe u can add the option of banging down the door as well
Nusians budget: cardbord cutouts, wooden dummy, and instructor ???(from apex) budget: a big ahh complex with elevators and stuff, looking like a space ship
Yeah its like a Hellmet and Ready or not mix, with some other features such as Pressure (Roblox game) and etc So yeah its prob gonna be good as long as they don’t charge for access

I dont want to make the game too gimmicky though. Thanks for the feedback

Love the ready or not voice lines, I’d definitely play this waiting for their next DLC
They're temporary until we find actors for calensk / phoenix but the feedback is appreciated
maybe the titan corp was the apex we made along the way
glad this randomly showed up in my recommendations when it did. keep up the good work, this looks great.

This is actually wild, I think you guys just set the new standard!
feels like head/body cam game, it looks really good tho
dude this is fudging awesome
This game is literally Hellmet but instead of Guest, Noobs and Dummies it was Robloxians (But seriously tho this is fire keep it up)
OMG this is one of the best shooting game i have seen ever💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Loved the Resident evil 5 music in the end lol.

Escape from Tarkov level of detail.

How is this game so professional? My whole mind is blown.
I am already invested in this game so much
dawg this is amazing. i'm hooked. please keep working on this

Whats the notable gameplay difference between this and hellmet?
To be fair if you remove the helmet camera gimmick, you'd be asking what the gameplay difference is between APEX & Ready or not. It's just additional flair.
My intentions with APEX were to offer a more serious/larpy variant of HELLMET. I quote from my dms with sensei "my game is leaned more towards casuals, urs is more serious"
the general gameplay loop however is mostly the same. Most notable difference is that you should expect a higher quality product considering we're a team

For example I'd say HELLMET does progression a lot better than APEX, the skill tree is really fun to grind towards
@@notawildfox maybe I have a skill issue or something, but hellmet was not casual to me, I had to play on the lowest difficulty just to be able to finish it with a few retries

a wonderful job indeed

When it comes out, can you post a video on it with the link of the game in it? And also I really love the game already, and I can’t wait to play it.
The link is in the description.
hey just a question, at 5:04 did you take inspiration from isle's hacking system?, if so then that's actually pretty cool
Yeah. I've also worked with Badorkbee before so i did have some insight
Yes they did (im gonna suffer from this a lot)
