Painkiller 2 in development?

Post by Damien_Azreal »

Just noticed this at worthplaying, a statement taken from someone at E3...

"Another day of E3 has ended and today we walked away with an inside scoop. During an E3 presentation, our ever-attentive ears caught the most interesting piece of information. During the Painkiller Xbox demo it was revealed to us that People Can Fly is already working on a sequel to Painkiller -- not an expansion pack, like Battle Out Of Hell, but a full-blown follow-up title. No further information or tentative release date were mentioned."

Could it be? My dream came true... or is someone just shooting off stupid s*** without actualy knowing anything?
I hope that Painkiller 2 does become a reality.

Don't want to spoil the moment for you, big DA, but it is highly possible that the sequel, if it's true, will pale in comparison to the original.

The only games that come to mind, where the sequels were superior to the originals, were 'Age of Empires 2' and 'WarCraft II'.

Don't mean to be negative, just giving the ÐÐ reality check. :?

Yeah I know. I'm prepared for this to be complete s*** or total truth. And I'm prepared for PK2 to have the possibilty to suck.

But I can hope. :D

Well, anyway, it was officially stated that this Painkiller 2 thing was a hoax.
PK developers are working on a different project now. They don't deny that some day they may consider starting PK2 project, but now certainly is not the moment.

Anyway, do any of you play PK online and would like to spill some blood together? :twisted:
I can create a server for us if we decide to play some time.

Yeah, I found out about three or four days ago it was fake. :cry: I'm so sad and upset I havn't played Painkiller or Blood since I found out. :cry:

I don't have a fast enough connection to play online, I would love to though. In a few months I will be getting cable internet. So can I take a rain check til then?

You'll definitely be welcome!

I think it would be cool to have some Painkiller action with other Blood fans.
If we can't play Blood together then let's at least play Painkiller. :D

Oh hell yeah! Thanks mate!

Damnit having 2 busted up cd-roms... long story short, our laptop drive kicked the bucket, so we got an external one which ALSO is breaking down, so I can't play games off the cd-rom... Bugger, ay? :?

Edit: I just realized the confusios I could have caused, I mean the CD Rom Drive.
