Hello. I did not found answer for my question, so I ask here. Is original version of the game will be included in Lardcore?, It would be great. Thanks in advance for your reply.
Thanks for taking the time to do this it's really interesting and exciting to hear all these updates, I appreciate the team and all the hard work they're putting in to bring the game to life ☺️
Nice to know the failed kickstarter did not end things!! I only learned about the kickstarter from a Subscriber of mine after it was already over, wish I knew to support it
Ich finde es so toll das ihr so viel Liebe in das Spiel steckt. Ich muss immer grinsen wenn ich die deutschen Namen in euren Footage sehe. Auch bei dem Gameplay in Lardcore sehe ich mein altes "ich" wie es vor der PS1 sitzt und sich über die Sprüche amüsiert. Es ist einfach Klasse zu sehen wie viel Liebe und Herz Ihr in dieses Meisterwerk steckt.
Hello, a PS1 veteran here. 😊 I think it's great what you're doing there. Hogs of War was my favorite game on the PS1 and I still play it sometimes. Hope it comes to PC too. Will there be destructible worlds like in Worms? Greetings from Germany👍
I'm glad to hear that you're keeping PC players in mind! I didn't doubt you'd be focusing on the PS5 release first, it's always better to prioritise one version being completed before moving on to another platform. I genuinely hope Lardcore does well, both critically and financially, as this is a game I have so many memories of playing on the PS1 as a child. Thank you guys for remaking this hidden gem, and for being transparent and communicative with its development!
Yeah it's really nice to know what they are doing and considering. I'm more keen for the PC release but I appreciate the honesty of lets focus on one thing at a time and get that right
You made my day better again. Anytime see a new update for the remake just makes me happy. You do such great work. I gladly will wait as long as it needs. Im sure this will come out as great as the original
I'm really looking forward to it. Becoming more and more excited. It will be great to see when Frontschweine becomes my 100th platinum trophy. Ps: Maybe it's complaining at a high level (German proverb), but for me the rockets from the heavy weapons still move too quickly in the air after being fired, as do the cluster grenades from the mortar and the airburst and, based on the previous videos, also the hand grenades . It would be great if it was like the original, that the rocket/grenade has a certain optical weight and so it "stays in the air longer". Hope you know what I mean, I just had it translated by Google. Greetings from Germany. You're doing great work.
I get where you're coming from but Owen mentioned in the previous video, that it feels like the game is moving faster, hence why the projectiles feel less weighty than in the original because of the framerate which is of course improved now. Then again Owen said the team is working on getting especially the feel of the original game spot on for this remake and I think we can trust them on that. Like you said they are doing amazing work!
Ура! Наконец - то я дождался чего-то действительно стоющего. Желаю вам удачи в разработке. Надеюсь, от оригинала сильно не отойдете. Живите вечно разработчики 😊
Great video, the projectiles are looking much better. The mention of challenges is interesting - perhaps the expanded content could include a specific Challenge Mode? A special set of maps with unique challenges that test different skills - use a Sniper to earn 5 headshots, blow up as many buildings in a time limit, or simply survive as long as possible while reinforcements charge in. And indeed, there is the possibility of a Horde Mode-style game where reinforcements are dropped in. Looking forward to it!
Some nice ideas there! As we're looking at releasing on PlayStation to begin with - you can expect to see achievements that will bring that sort of challenge (which will then hopefully be expanded into future ports!)
@@hogsofwarlardcore Oh yes! Much hilarity as one mistake inevitably followed another, and whoever eventually won was more through luck than judgement. I don’t know if this has ever been considered/suggested, but as a way of fundraising, how difficult would it be to release HoW as it was, just as the couch co-op game we all originally fell in love with? I’m sure many would buy this and it would raise funds for the Lardcore project
Don't forget our pigs models are most certainly NOT finalised, they are getting a major makeover, the likes you'll be able to see in a future video! :)
Firstly, just want to say I am so excited for this!! I'm literally replaying this Game currently (and did a review on it on my channel) and its so strange this super old Game I'm playing is currently being worked on once again. Nice to know I'm not the only one who replays old Games and would happily support a more modern version. Below I think I'll put together a wish list of things I would love to see in the Game. No pressure of course, but a Hog can Dream and simply getting this game at all one day is amazing in of itself 🙂 1) I'm a sucker for Depth Of Field in Games. No idea if in practice this gets in the way of vision during gameplay or if it's only activated once an attack plays out. So for example, while aiming with a weapon and initiating the action, everything is normal - PIG says funny line and action is played out. Maybe during that 2nd part is when DOF occurs? 2) Hogs Of War always had a lot of personality. I'm wondering if additional customisation options would push that further? In Worms for example, having the ability to choose what Grave appears after death was a nice personal touch. Pallet swapping for colour comes to mind as well. 3) Water is featured heavily in the original Game and of course is making it's comeback. I wish you luck in making it as visually appealing as possible. The water in Yooka Laylee, I feel strikes a nice balance between old and new. Very clean, with some light reflection and distortion effect when looking through. I hope it's nice and blue haha instead of looking muggy / dirty. 4) Okay, some real feedback on the original Game. I loved that upgrading each class gave them their own special weapons. Like getting the SUPER Shotgun opened up the way for heaps of fun and creativity. What I did find disappointing, was once you passed a certain level - all the classes became the same. The initial originality gets pushed aside. 5) I'm sure your already doing it and likely have mentioned in a previous video I have not seen yet but I do want to say the use of music in HOW was done really well. I love that at the start of each turn, depending on the country we got colourful music that matched it for a bit and after, the actual map music would play ^__^ 6) Do you think Liquid physics is a fun idea? So maybe we have a grenade like item called "TOXIC" or "LAVA" that is thrown and when it explodes, a Liquid like substance cover the immediate area? Naturally damaging any HOGS caught in it but also contaminating the ground, forcing players to avoid or take some damage if they need to pass. Apologies for the massive comment and random wish list, when your busy working on the Game and I'm like MORE hahaha Looking forward to promoting this Game on my channel once it's done!
EDIT: Reworded based on response given by one of the devs. Based on previous videos and what I know from discussions with Pinstripe and other people in the community, I can give you an educated answer regarding their response for some of your feedback. Keep in mind, I'm not on the dev team, so if any of them see this and end up proving me wrong... well, speaks for itself. 2) Customization is planned for the game so far as I know. To the extent you suggested? Probably not - at least at launch. It might be something they plan on adding in the future, based on feedback from the community. 4) This feels more like a 'user error' case, as there is nothing preventing you from *not* upgrading your Level 3 unit into a Commando... That being said, having an alternative option to go for a Level 4 that has extra HP and more of their classes specific weapons could be an alternative idea they could experiment with. For now, it'll probably be the same as the original game. Perhaps at a later time they'll see to changing this. 6) This would need to go through a lot of R&D and beta-testing to see if it could work. So at this point in time, it'll probably be a 'No' unless someone figures something out. That being said, one thing that has been somewhat-joked about in the community as an idea is the ability to poison patches of water with poison based weapons like the Poison Gas and Gas Shell. This could in theory form a basis for your idea if it ever gets expanded upon.
@@greatsageclok-roo9013 Hey thanks for giving me your thoughts on things!! Commando's are awesome, I just wish not all of them and the Hero had the exact same move sets : ) I did watch another one of their earlier videos discussing they want to add more variety with hats, which I think is a Swell Idea ^_^ It's exciting to know this is even happening
Hallo, ein PS1 Veteran hier. 😊 Finde es super was ihr da macht. Frontschweine war mein Lieblings Spiel auf der PS1 und ich spiele es bis heute ab und zu mal. Hoffe das es für PC kommt. Wird es zerstörbare Welten geben wie in Worms? Grüße 👍
Thank you so much for responding to my question, really appreciate it! Excited about the Italians potentially being in the game at launch and future content post-release. Thank you for the love and care that you’re putting into this project and I look forward to watching more devlogs in the future! 😃
Thank you for the continued support soldier! Apologies for the lack of communication over the last month or two, HQ have been deep into planning our next move against the enemy!
@@hogsofwarlardcore You’re very welcome! I’m a massive Hogs of War fan so I’m sure that you all will put together a game that will be a worthy successor to the original. Really excited to find out more information!
Awesome video as always guys. Always love seeing how far you have come into the development. Wishing you all the best and hope to see another vid soon. Looking forward to playing this day one when it’s out
Hogs of War was a favourite childhood game of mine, I only found out about this project today and wish you luck with this and look forward to playing it one day. Very happy to that you are keeping the original voice work by Rik Mayall. My question is on Linux compatability, I assume no technologies will be used (kernel anti cheat type things) that would prevent it running on Linux through Proton? I know if you aren't building for Linux you can't say it will work for sure.
As our focus right now is primarily on PlayStation hardware - HQ can't comment on Linux compatibility. In future we intend to look at other ports, but until then we must push forward my dear hog!
Don't forget the majority of what you see in our gameplay is not finalised, pig models especially are getting a significant makeover behind the scenes, we'll share the new designs and such in a future video! :)
Updates to our pig models are taking place behind the scenes don't you worry, once they're done cooking in the oven we'll be sure to show you all in a future video! :)
Good question! Our pig model update is a little behind schedule currently, but within it you can expect unique class models for every rank! The colour palette differs from class to class, but we still intend to maintain the original primary and secondary colours of each team, especially for higher ranking pigs! :)
Ah my dear soldier, I'm afraid Russian wasn't originally apart of the official release back in the day, so its not a language on our list currently. If that changes in future we'll be sure to let you all know!
It looks good, I recognized the under siege mission that looked good, but I don't think I saw a big mine field, are you still finding it hard to get mine fields right? Also was that an original level where you were shooting rockets over the hill or is that something new?
The minefield is indeed there (check the minimap!) but across the board they need better highlighting as currently they are difficult to spot! Its an original level, only available for 2 player - Dam Busters! :)
From what I've heard there working on ps4/5 first then potentially a pc port if all goes well, better to work on one port at a time than pc and console combined.
We hear the frustration my dear hog! We know that the community is in need of lardcore to come to PC, and we hope that will come to pass in future! For now though we must finish our existing campaign on PS, a massive thank you for the continued support!
Bro love this you still do this I check on you every 6 months just waiting for this to be released, is it coming to ps5 atall? And btw I was a hogs of war fanatic when it was on ps1 always wondered why there wasn’t a number 2. Sick game
Thanks for the support soldier! Apologies on getting back to you, communication breakdown in our trenches near HQ! PS5 is on the menu! If you are interested in seeing what happened to the originally planned sequel - check out this video! ua-cam.com/video/L9YufSZdUTY/v-deo.html
This might sound as really dumb question, but how Campaign would work, if Suini Bellici (Italian Team) would be added to the game? Because, I know in original 5 other teams are going against you through out story. Really sorry for stupid question. Either way, I hope Hogs of War Lardcore will receive a bright future.
Good question there soldier! The campaign itself would work just as it did in the original game, but with any new teams squeezed in! You'd be able to unlock and select whichever team when you start a new campaign, again with those new teams added to the roster the enemy use within each mission! We've been using the community's input for Suini Bellici, given how in the original they didn't exist in any of the other language releases! Come get involved over in the hogs community discord if you aren't already! :) discord.gg/hogs
Don't you worry, there is a secret lardcore video coming out very soon over on our lead game designers channel that will be going into some of those sorts of details! Keep ya eyes peeled soldier! www.youtube.com/@Pinstripe10
I remember asking about this on another video before, they said that they focusing on the digital release first and physical will come a while after release
@@shadowjackification They hope to by the end of this year or at some point next year. They are only a small team and I hope they take their time with it. It’s been nearly two months since their this vid and hope they do a new video on their progress soon
@@shadowjackification Yeah definitely for sure. Ape escape and LOD are long overdue remakes. Soul reaver 1&2 are hopefully getting remastered as well if the statues of Kain and Raziel shown at SDCC with the label of Soul reaver 1&2 remastered is anything to go by
Of course! We intend to split Multiplayer between online and offline (local) play, gotta have the best of both worlds eh? Cheers for the support soldier!
Hello. I have a question. I remember, you guys saying something about adding in Lardcore, original game. Is that true? or I have something wrong with my ears. Thanks in advance for your reply.
As in a new game difficulty? Intelligence HQ has some top secret files regarding such a mode, however loose lips sinks ships soldier! (more details on that coming in a future video!)
Given the workload we need to finish what we started on PlayStation, once thats done we will certainly be considering other ports, keep that chin up soldier!
Are any of the models finalised? The weapon crates look great but the pigs themselves still look too 'cutesy' compared to the PS1 models I think The original game's pigs looked just right for the overall art style and setting/theme and the janky low pol mixed with low res was so iconic. I think the current pig models look almost too clean, they need to look, well, more shit lmao
I always said they looked too cartoon like, and also lacked the "snout" the pigs had in the original, I have been told in the past the models are still being worked so.
Nope! Pig models are getting a major makeover behind the scenes, each receiving their own unique class model, colour palette and details, the likes of which we hope to show you in a future video! (once they are done cooking in the oven!)
Kickstarter might go well, but have you considered crypto donations? There people out there literally spending thousands on pointless memes, if they realise they're buying a game and it's something legit they'll literally throw money at it. There's alot of greed out there, you could potentially solve your financial woes in a very short time span allowing for more development. It's an idea from an observation.
Hey people. This "small team" is not going to release anything anytime soon. I'm a game developer and this has been done for a long time. They are simply worried about maximizing profits not the game. Use the pandemic for example. They weren't sure if it would sell so they held out. Reality is they are kicking themselves now for not releasing then. Fact is this game is for fans of the original. This will only sell to new gamers if it's good. They are sitting on a garbage game hence why they are trying to scam people. I'm about to just create the game myself and call it greedy pigs from hell. Won't have all the pay to play options but a guarantee it will be better than these scammers game.

Hello, a PS1 veteran here. 😊 I think it's great what you're doing there. Hogs of War was my favorite game on the PS1 and I still play it sometimes. Hope it comes to PC too. Will there be destructible worlds like in Worms? Greetings from Germany👍
We'd love to add destructible worlds but for the sake of the old code it'll probably be something we save for the future :)
I'm glad to hear that you're keeping PC players in mind! I didn't doubt you'd be focusing on the PS5 release first, it's always better to prioritise one version being completed before moving on to another platform.

Starting to look lot more polished and really good actually. Keep it up! PC release is a must, this game could get massive thanks to PC playerbase.
I'm really looking forward to it.
Becoming more and more excited.
It will be great to see when Frontschweine becomes my 100th platinum trophy.
Ps: Maybe it's complaining at a high level (German proverb), but for me the rockets from the heavy weapons still move too quickly in the air after being fired, as do the cluster grenades from the mortar and the airburst and, based on the previous videos, also the hand grenades .
It would be great if it was like the original, that the rocket/grenade has a certain optical weight and so it "stays in the air longer".
Hope you know what I mean, I just had it translated by Google.

Good question! Our pig model update is a little behind schedule currently, but within it you can expect unique class models for every rank! The colour palette differs from class to class, but we still intend to maintain the original primary and secondary colours of each team, especially for higher ranking pigs! :)

Bro love this you still do this I check on you every 6 months just waiting for this to be released, is it coming to ps5 atall? And btw I was a hogs of war fanatic when it was on ps1 always wondered why there wasn’t a number 2. Sick game
Thanks for the support soldier! Apologies on getting back to you, communication breakdown in our trenches near HQ! PS5 is on the menu! If you are interested in seeing what happened to the originally planned sequel - check out this video! ua-cam.com/video/L9YufSZdUTY/v-deo.html
This might sound as really dumb question, but how Campaign would work, if Suini Bellici (Italian Team) would be added to the game? Because, I know in original 5 other teams are going against you through out story. Really sorry for stupid question. Either way, I hope Hogs of War Lardcore will receive a bright future.
Good question there soldier! The campaign itself would work just as it did in the original game, but with any new teams squeezed in! You'd be able to unlock and select whichever team when you start a new campaign, again with those new teams added to the roster the enemy use within each mission!
We've been using the community's input for Suini Bellici, given how in the original they didn't exist in any of the other language releases! Come get involved over in the hogs community discord if you aren't already! :) discord.gg/hogs
When?
Aiming for 2025, once we have a confirmed release date/window we'll be sure to let the community know!
Hopefully they dont over clutter the enviroments hurting visability.
Don't you worry, there is a secret lardcore video coming out very soon over on our lead game designers channel that will be going into some of those sorts of details! Keep ya eyes peeled soldier! www.youtube.com/@Pinstripe10
Will there be a physical release too?
I remember asking about this on another video before, they said that they focusing on the digital release first and physical will come a while after release
@@dragoon2334 i hope they will release it soon. Would be nice to play it again.
@@shadowjackification
They hope to by the end of this year or at some point next year.
They are only a small team and I hope they take their time with it.
It’s been nearly two months since their this vid and hope they do a new video on their progress soon
@@dragoon2334 would be nice! Since some old titles will come back, like croc and gex.
@@shadowjackification
Yeah definitely for sure.
Ape escape and LOD are long overdue remakes.
Soul reaver 1&2 are hopefully getting remastered as well if the statues of Kain and Raziel shown at SDCC with the label of Soul reaver 1&2 remastered is anything to go by
when will it finally come out?
Will this be released on XBox One?
Our framework has all been done on PlayStation, so for now thats the primary focus, once done we'll consider other ports! :)
Will the game be 4 player local multiplayer, please include local multiplayer that’s one of the funnest things
Of course! We intend to split Multiplayer between online and offline (local) play, gotta have the best of both worlds eh? Cheers for the support soldier!
@@hogsofwarlardcore yess sirrr 💯🔥
Hello.
I have a question.
I remember, you guys saying something about adding in Lardcore, original game. Is that true? or I have something wrong with my ears.
Thanks in advance for your reply.
As in a new game difficulty? Intelligence HQ has some top secret files regarding such a mode, however loose lips sinks ships soldier! (more details on that coming in a future video!)
@@hogsofwarlardcore can't wait.
Hacedlo realidad, por favor 👀💥
is there any playtest for player to test the bug etc. or use the online mode to test the server etc?
Not currently soldier, but should such positions become available - we'll be sure to let the community know!
Only PS4/PS5...?:(
At first yes, till they are ready to do versions for other platforms.
They are doing this remaster with a PS dev kit which is why it’s PS first
Given the workload we need to finish what we started on PlayStation, once thats done we will certainly be considering other ports, keep that chin up soldier!

Meet me on Deathbowl, stat!
Are any of the models finalised? The weapon crates look great but the pigs themselves still look too 'cutesy' compared to the PS1 models I think
The original game's pigs looked just right for the overall art style and setting/theme and the janky low pol mixed with low res was so iconic.
I think the current pig models look almost too clean, they need to look, well, more shit lmao
I always said they looked too cartoon like, and also lacked the "snout" the pigs had in the original, I have been told in the past the models are still being worked so.
As the disclaimer mentioned at the start of the video - all content shown is not representative of the final product :P
I prefer the new look pigs. They remind me of classic disney characters
Nope! Pig models are getting a major makeover behind the scenes, each receiving their own unique class model, colour palette and details, the likes of which we hope to show you in a future video! (once they are done cooking in the oven!)
Start gane id...
плохой дизайн, оригинал выглядит лучше....
Kickstarter might go well, but have you considered crypto donations?
There people out there literally spending thousands on pointless memes, if they realise they're buying a game and it's something legit they'll literally throw money at it.
There's alot of greed out there, you could potentially solve your financial woes in a very short time span allowing for more development.
It's an idea from an observation.
Release date?
Aiming for 2025, once we have a release window - the community will be first to know! :)
@@hogsofwarlardcore thanks
Hey people. This "small team" is not going to release anything anytime soon. I'm a game developer and this has been done for a long time. They are simply worried about maximizing profits not the game.
Use the pandemic for example. They weren't sure if it would sell so they held out. Reality is they are kicking themselves now for not releasing then. Fact is this game is for fans of the original. This will only sell to new gamers if it's good. They are sitting on a garbage game hence why they are trying to scam people.
I'm about to just create the game myself and call it greedy pigs from hell.
Won't have all the pay to play options but a guarantee it will be better than these scammers game.
