Delta force making a comeback
https://www.pcgamer.com/tencent-is-bringing-back-delta-force-as-a-large-scale-multiplayer-pvp-shooter-with-a-singleplayer-campaign-based-on-black-hawk-down/
Sounded intriguing, because the original was pretty fun at the time. Unfortunately if you watch the trailer, it goes from immersive 'Black Hawk Down'-like graphics to some weird, sci-fi, Crysis clone in record time.
How they could make a 30 second trailer that disjointed and jarring is quite the accomplishment.
Looks a bit like a generic hero-style shooter with the Delta Force name plastered on top. :undecided:
Meh.
The original Delta Force was a pretty darned good milsim.
This looks like more Call of Duty crap.
if it dont uses Voxelspace it is not Deltaforce ^^
imagine what a relaistic landscape could be done with todays computing power and voxels
well maybe other technologies evolved so far that it is possible to get the same visual results for the user with less effort :huh:

You answered your own question about Voxels.
Voxels are superior but even modern home rigs with top of the line gear would choke trying to render them at a very high level of realism.
Pixels can get closer while still giving the user a playable experience.
There are a few voxel games out there, but if you look at them they're rendered in fairly low fidelity in order to use the tech and keep it functional.
The original Delta Force was massively ahead of its time for its ability to render environments though.
Say, who did the actual Blackhawk Down game? Wasn't that the same people on the Delta Force engine? (At work, can't look it up.)

Same game series. Novalogic did all the originals. Black Hawk Down was Delta Force 6. By then they'd dropped the voxel space engine.
This looks awful (0:25) and the voice over is cringe inducing. No idea why they decided to go this cliched, weird, BOps like route.
That does look very generic and has a superheros vibe. I will stick with hell let loose.
Demo for Delta Force just dropped on Steam as part of their Next Fest October 14-21.
Co-op only though, right? No AI squad mates?
I started the download and then heard their was a 3rd party client login? I stopped and removed the game from my account. Too many shooters I need to play in my list already.
