- STORY MODE & other potential features! - War of the Worlds PC Game News
Today I go over some of the many questions and suggestions you have had about the upcoming war of the worlds game, including the possibility of a story mode!
My Discord Server:
/ discord
This game is based upon the 2005 Stephen Spielberg movie The War of the Worlds, Starring Tom Cruise. This film is based upon the Novel by H.G Wells and I have to say this is probably the best we're ever going to get in terms of a game adaption of the film. Today we take a look at the early gameplay footage.

I totally agree with you, even if the game had something similar to easy difficulty, it would still be considerably complicated, something that always annoys me about some similar games is how easy it is for the player to outwit or escape from things that are much more powerful than himself, and that this game is made to be extremely difficult is perfect
Precisely
Yeah. The point of the tripods is that the are an overwhelming force that people can barely avoid because these things wiped out most of humanity.
@@Uberkit ask them once a tripod has fallen will that orange liquid slowly pour out the tripod ? And if a Uber tripod is taken out to prevent humans learning about it it self destructs and makes a huge crater
@@Uberkit i agree with bomber
4:28 im not shooting this guys idea down, but instead of it just slowing down i think it should pull back the broken arm and extend a new one giving you time to escape (for context in the movie they were able to break the tripods camera stalk which shows theyre vulnerable in the joints)
1:18 we were talking about that in the discord. and it should be a weakness becuase the shields let static objects through that arent going at high speeds, therefor mines will most likely be a weakness to them. if Raf implements it ;-;
Can't wait to see gameplay of actually playing as a Tripod.
Vulnerability by being attacked from underneath,
They said Japan figured this out and took some out in the movie I believe
2:10 A scripted scene that would be original in regards to the 2005 movie, but not the original H. G. Wells story, is the last stand of a lone battleship against an onslaught of tripods, managing to take them down one by one, but eventually be destroyed. Don't know what modern ship would fit the best in that role, probably a modern missile cruiser, or maybe even a nuclear submarine.
I think an Arleigh-Burke class Destroyer would fit well as the modern equivalent to the Thunder Child.
Crows will make the tripods sick
Aw man. It's a shame that none of my questions or suggestions weren't showcased in this video but that is completely understandable you do get a lot of questions and suggestions.
The one question I said that I really wanted to know is if the tripods will have different horn sounds depending on the tripod class or just be picked at random as well as if the horns become sickly sounding when the tripods start to become weak. The reason I asked this is to give the tripods some more personality and when you are hiding in a building you can figure out which tripod is coming based on the horn sound it makes.
I'm gonna take a picture of your comment so I remember to get it answered, sorry for missing it out before! I still have plenty of questions to fire over to the dev
It's funny you ask, because I suggested that the uberpod should have a lower bass/lower tone to differentiate between the normal ones
@@aruus7364 Yes that is exactly what I wanted something like that. It too would be nice two have somewhat of a variation between the heat ray pod and the tentacle pod, but the fear factor of guesswork may be that much scarier too. At the very least the Uberpod should definitely have its own unique and darker (in terms of scary atmosphere) horn sound since it is not only bigger but much more heavily equipped with both heat rays and tentacles.
@@Uberkit That's quite alright Kit. I enjoyed the video nonetheless and I am glad that I am subbed to your channel for content like this.
big brain
5:05 kit is SPOT ON here. also sorry for commenting so much im just a fan who wants to suggest some ideas or add to some suggestions
While it would make it more fair to hear a sound cue of the heatray and also have them aim worse, I feel like that would make the tripods underwhelming which takes away from their whole purpose. They are meant to make you afraid and make you think ahead to outsmart them, not rely on some crutch like a sound cue.
Exactly, it's meant to be that if a tripod sees you it's pretty much game over
Remember Ray Ferrier got a pack of M61 Fragmentation Grenades with him as he got captured by the Tripod and then planting it inside of the pod after he nearly gets grabbed by a tentacle literally inside. After that, the entire pod is neutralized. There it is the weak spot.
Also landmines against the Tripods will be marvelous. The pods won't see it coming when they step over it.
Think it could be an interesting way to take down pods where you willingly get captured by a pod with grenades, then throw them in the harvesting port similar to the film.
well anti-tank mines would work.
Great Content As Always! 👌
Also a small question: Will The tripods be able to see you through windows or will they be like walls?
Hey just wanted to say congrats on the flow of subscribers I think that's pretty neat, keep up the good work
Thanks!
I feel the game should be hard but the player is not special to the tripod ai. If the choice is between the player and a random NPC, the tripod will go for the most convienent kill/capture rather than this is the player so go for them first.
2:10 or maybe you see the ferry get destroyed from on top of a hill?
4:01 but the trees and plants dont die in the movie... although i like the suggestion of making it LOOK grim.
Remember in the movie Ray could barely break the tenticle with an axe so I'm definitely wrong here but I don't think the player would be able to break it with bullets
The weakest part of a tripod are the legs you can place a land mine on it the if will go down its risky to do it so you need to be lucky
If the land mines are in the game
i think they would be weak to sustained multidirectional attacks, as well. a shield probably cant defend *all* angles at once
Depends on the overall strength of their shields I guess
@@Uberkit I'd personally say it depends on the shield type, if it's an always active omni kind of shield then this won't be a weakness, but if it's a more realistic type which is less like a shield and more like a plasma based active defense system, then a multidirectional attack will probably overwhelm it
I hope they add voice chat so if you to loud the alien can hear you also they need suppresor
i think one way to take one down would be how the mc did in the movie with the grenades in the hole thing
Bro you grown alot I remember you having over 500 subs
I know lol, last 6-7 weeks have been mad
one thing i would like to see in the story mode is perhaps a rendition of the camelot scene, a scene that was cut from the final version of the 2005 film. i think that would be neat to see.
as for the aspect of difficulty, i think it would be best to be able to have different modes i.e. easy, medium, hard etc. that way if the game feels to hard you can just decrease the difficulty, but you can also turn it back up if you want to really challenge yourself.
There will be the camelot scene, it's confirmed if you look at the game's discord FAQ ;)
Yeah I suppose you could turn the difficulty down if you want, there will be options to customize your playthrough
they should use procedural animation for the tripods
In the movie The Heat Ray missed its Target sometimes AKA the first scene in the movie where the tripod comes out of the hole and starts torching everyone it doesn't seem to have a set person it locks on it it likes to do a swipe
1:37 maybe players with bomb vests for the harvesters in multiplayer mode?
ooo didn't think about that, sacrificing yourself to down a pod
I wonder if we going to have character customization and can we put on gear like clothes or military armor gear and backpacks to improve your characters carrying weight and survival you can find and can you store stuff in your vehicle or make a base.
There will be backpacks you can wear to give you more inventory space, but character customization isn't on the list of things the dev is going to work on yet, so if it does get added it'll be quite a while before we hear anything about it
Can someone tell me the differance between the uberpod and a regular tripod please? Thanks
i really think for those of us who are whimps, not me personally. should have difficulty settings
Hallo kit how are you doing today so I have a suggestion to the developer soo we should be able to see human in tripod cages so when you hear screaming coming from the tripod so its simulat the the horror and realistic harvesting and if the player tried to escape out of the house while the tripod is probing it or the aliens exploring the structure the tripod should literally sneak one the player and spots them and that's before it crouch towards the as in the abduction scene but only the harvester tripod dose that and is the npc gonna have artificial intelligence so they don't just walk random and can we see some armed npcs like in the attack on the car scene when someone points a gun towards Ray's head and that's all I have thank you for the video and don't forget to send my greetings to the developers bye 🥰
in the movie... it was basixally impossible to take one down...they used many giant fighter jets and tanks and as it is way to tale them down and failed even using different tricks probably and only in japan they took one down except for ray who blew one up with a grenade..(wich is the type of things that should be able to damage them)...if it just took landmines that makes them possible to kill.. would make them so much less scary.. like only way should be so incredibly difficult in my opinion that it rarely ever happens..so u cant go on tripod killing sprees..like.. grenade one from the movies..or like creative tricks like that
Valid point definitely. How did the japanese take one down in the story?
When the goat posts, it just makes my life better and better
I'd be fine with making the game easier or harder depending on player taste
I'm very excited for this
Same here!
Will there be an endless mode that you just can try to survive as long as possible?
People constantly ask if the Uber pod is in the game and if you can play as it. Kinda sus😳
will we see military ships fighting the tripods as a reference to Thunderchild ?
Don't think so, I don't think the map could accommodate it
@@Uberkit probably
I’d love to see a version where you could use a grenade like how the dad did in the movie to take down a tripod. I’d also love to see a “creative mode” essentially for the player as well, free roam, no chance of death.
Will we be expecting aliens to come into houses?
An hidden option after you survived the invasion i suppose would be great in single player
Aliens will be coming into the houses, and there might be a sort of creative mode but unsure
Can’t wait for the Patreon release
You're telling me!
@@Uberkitit comes out the end of September right?
Personally i think this game will be gold ( also will this game be free?)
it ill not be free
@@leduckified1534 the dev said it would be free a while ago because of copyright but idk if that's changed
It's changed, but the price isn't determined yet
@@bigman2021 it is
@@Uberkit Wouldn't charging money for the game make the developer liable for legal action? Due to Copyright.
Maybe an emp to disable the shield
Possibly!
@@Uberkit I put that on discord In suggestions
are they releasing the demo of the game? and also will there be like in multiplayer will there be military trying to shoot u down while ur the tripod so u want get the player and in the end of story mode it showing u walking down while there are dead tripods and when u finished story mode u actually unlock something called ( Human hunt. ) which let's u unlock the other tripods in multiplayer so u can change tripods or military jobs.
A demo i'm unsure, unlikely. And yes the multiplayer should be how you said, but when it comes to changing military jobs and selecting different tripods, that's unknown
yeah after story mode u unlock the ability to swich roles u can still play multiplayer but u can only be one class of tripods\humans but when u beat story mode u get the ability to change skill classes (tripods) and job class (humanity)
Wasn’t it mentioned that you would be able to bring explosives with you when captured in the cage? If so you may be able to destroy it that way like the movie.
You will be able to if you manage to find some, but you still need to be able to pull it off if you get grabbed once in the cage
Here’s a little fact that I know there is more than the three tripods that were mentioned there is not well as known because they’re not in most movies where is the empress tripod Disguise itself as a tree and when someone walks by it it turns on and grab them there’s also flying harvesters flying tripods That can harvest and finally the mega tripod The mega tripod is five times bigger than a regular tripod they also have five times more shield and heat ray power it can harvest and they usually spawn in large fields
Where do I find out about this extra tripods? Are you sure they are in the lore of the 2005 film or just general wotw lore?
@@Uberkit can’t remember the source but it was a book about cut tripods in the movie they were going to have a scene where family sneak the empress tripod And they were going to see flying harvesters flying over the shipwreck The reason is super hard to see artwork of is because Not many people know about them by the way the empress tripod only has one spotlight in the flying Harvester has three
Wow
I had 2 questions, will the game have a map you can use or find, and will there be a binoculars item?
I'm unsure, i'll have to find out for you
Will this be on playstation?
Heyy I’m in the video
cool
yes
I love the Uber
Uber is love, Uber is life
Honestly I love this game and 100% love the movie
Do have a small question if it can be answered that would be great but when your in the tripod will we see NPC’s and or players inside if not would love to see it
hint nudge mention it to the developers
They should put a character that you can play as Rachel
That would be very annoying
@@Nickoboss29shut up
Re chido 😸
Could somebody send me an invite, the steam page says the invite link is invalid now
Still don’t know what an uberpod is, was it in the film? What makes it different.
It was in the film, it's just after robbie leaves ray at the hill scene and the tripods come over the hill, they are a different variant from the rest you see in the film and they're bigger and more decked out than other pods
And the one that rises out of the water during the ferry scene
@@Uberkit My whole world just imploded, have watched this film since it came out and never noticed there were other tripods.
Will it come out for non Patreon members and if so when?
It will come out for non patreon members but I don't know when, currently it's set for patreon members to get access roughly around the end of september
I personally dont even think a landmine could affect the tripod at all, their weight are gargantuan, and their 3 feets makes them more stable than us.
Considering it can crush a car to nothing almost,it's around 20T and the alliage must be even more resistant than tanks.
What do you think ?
Depends on the size of the ordnance ;)
You could hide a could of Mk82’s underground and lure it over the top, that would give the tripod a run for it’s money. Remember, it only took a couple shots from a javelin to take one down unshielded. If underground ordnance explodes within the shield, you wouldn’t need a whole lot to do the job.

You get it!!

No Uber No Party
This is a question I want to ask ask to the owner of the game if the game is going to comes to cancel?
How do the devs intend on stopping people from abusing broken spots in the map? IE, finding a gap in rocks or a basement where it never checks and then just AFKing all game. In single player it’s not as big a problem since you’re just ruining your own experience by doing that but in multiplayer it could be a problem.
Another question I have is multiplayer going to be hide and seek alien edition with a timer and small map or just the normal open world but online?
well you'll be able to manually control the tentacles I believe so you could theoretically manoeuvre it to where the player is hiding. and the heatrays do seem to have a splash damage effect.
Let's not forget that you'll have to keep hunting for resources and food cause you'll die quite fast without it, so a player won't be able to hide somewhere safe for very long even if they stocked up.
I believe it'll be essentially hide and seek alien edition with the original map, as far as how long the game's last for I have no idea, the multiplayer hasn't even begun production yet
What is an Uber tripod?
It's a slightly different variation of a tripod which is larger and looks a bit different, and is more kitted out essentially
@@Uberkit Thank you for your awnser, I struggled finding so on Google, or any platform.
Всегда представлял себе картину, как 3 трипода собирают людей и тут прилетает ядерная ракета и сносит их ударной волной (щит от нее явно не защитит)
RE: Shields
Are the Shields really that invincible tho? they should be collapsible from sustained bombardment from multiple angles and for sustained periods of time... like maybe a scripted event where the US Airforce is hammering an alien ship with successive airstrikes and they crack through the shield...? like that hill battle scene from the movie but its like a broken arrow senario where multiple strikes happen after a Batalion sized ground force is engaged (realistically would be a brigade but no game can handle that). It would be a pyrrhic victory anyway realistically with 90% of ground forces gone just to kill one pod. and like other pods could just turn up and rout US forces anyway hence maintaining the superiority aurora.
I mean when you think about the way we understand how shields would work you'd think that you could just bombard it until it breaks, but it's alien tech and maybe they don't just crack? But it'll be interesting if they do and you just see a huge military force overwhelm a pod's shields and get through, you wouldn't see it happen much but just seeing humans fighting back and doing some sort of damage would be cool
Kit you son of a b
You mention The thing I said about going inside a tripod's shield proximity to take it down
;)
@@Uberkit players are gonna have a field day if the got release
Is it coming out
Yes lol
@@Uberkit ok
@@Uberkit is not getig ban
game should be hard
I'm not keeping my hopes up for this game, considering the history with the developers first game and its reviews.
Yeah his FIRST game. If you actually look at the difference in quality between his first game and this one you can see he's learnt a hell of a lot since then
@@Uberkit I hope you're right
I'm actually on the fence about being able to shoot a Tripod's tentacle to even slow it down, those things are some sort of metal alloy how the bloody fuck are they going to recoil from a gunshot, especially since Multiplayer is going to be a thing, the last thing a Multiplayer like that needs are unfair mechanics like that when they have someone dead to rights.
I think it should be hard but your gonna have people that say it’s too hard so
Exactly, depends on if the dev wants to try to please everyone
"Alright I hear you loud and clear... and you're wrong! F*ck you! Instead of a linear difficulty curve wich is too easy, exponential curve!"

0:31 YES YES YES YESSS OMG but will it be free or do you need xp or levels i don't know
Edit: the game will be free right?
Soo many bots leaving comments with phising links...
It's unbearable
Tell me about it :/
Will this game be free?
No, but the price hasn't been announced yet
The game should be hard.
lemme marry te uber pod
Fair? What fair?
You are literally 1 lonely human being vs god damn gigantic harvesting devastating machines
It shouldn't be fair, It is all dedicated to the movie after all, Either shelter and survive or hide and stealth
my thoughts exactly
Everyone already saw story mode and told them, no reason for you to finally notice 7 months later.
