Bet its gonna cost like 25 euro again.
Worms World Party Remastered will cost £11/$15/€13.
Where's the WWP mine? WWP's mine doesn't look like WA.Only hand-dropped mines used WWP-specific sprites.
can someone explain what it brings new ?New sounds, Steamworks integration (multiplayer through steam servers), achievements, controller support, HD support
Game is just a re-release of WWP. Works exactly the same, looks exactly the same, except there's 3 new speeches (?) and you can play on modern day resolutions. :-[
Only thing this does as far as i can see is draw ppl away from dl/ing WA, thinking this new title is supreme in some way. But in all honesty it's far from. There's a reason this game died back in the day. Very inactive online community + slow menu's. Add to this all the new features they have put in WA and that are missing from this WWP and this one's bound to die out soon.
Only interesting for players who don't have the old WWP and would like to have some of the wormpot modes at hand, or try some of the single player missions.
In short. Cash cow.
Was kinda obvious they wouldnt change the game itself, as they cant fix code made by someone else. But I was hoping for at least some new goodies or a different menu layout and what not. But nah, they didnt even include new maps or shit like that. It's just a re-release of an old game they had lying around.

custom singlerplayer missions and custom multiplayer missions

I guess that I won't never get that plush, no1 contacted me on twitch :'(
I sent a message to Mike (the guy who was playing WWP on twitch) without answers.
they just contacted me for the plush, everything ok ;)Yay! ^^ :-*
no1 contacted me on twitchHave you checked the spam box in twitch's inbox? It seems the message went there (I had the same yesterday). Maybe once Team17 makes partnership with twitch, it won't be happening.
During final testing for today's release of the game, our QA team discovered a critical bug buried deep in the game's code.
No one at Team17 is happy releasing the game with this bug in place. We'll be working our prods off to get this fixed and on sale as soon as possible.
The only way to acquire the necessary recognition we seek, is to post our thoughts on Team17 official forums or email them.
everyone says that t17 is so stupid and making mistakes every time and they should ask this community about what to do, but i don't see any posts at steam about this. is there any t17 developers on this forum or why you are talking here? :O
Having a discussion here about how stupid they are, will not bring any solution to the problem.

I've been complaining on the Steam discussion page for WWP Remastered about how superior WA is and how the best move is to unify to two games. If more people did that, maybe Team17's ears would perk up...
We used to write stuff on T17 forum, but then T17 shut down the T17 forums, probably due to the fact they can't handle all the negative feedback they were getting.
We definitely aren't the biggest market lol.
We are but a few hundred "regular" players on WA, and i'd guess less than 50% of us obtained this game legally.
When T17 sell new games, thousands of people buy these games, probably play it for a few hours, and never play it again.
Well, that's a good reason to stay with W:A! BTW, This remake of WWP will probably have the same things happening to it: Team17 releases remake, remake sucks ass, top brass disappears from social media, Team17 "apologizes" badly, patches do almost nothing at all, some patches undo prior fixes, Team17 releases "compensation" (in-game badges, free [put whatever Team17 is gonna give us for free here], a port of something [maybe we might end up playing Worms Battle Rally because Team17 sucked at porting WWP and had to make it up by taking a former idea for a cancelled game and making it so that it gets released], and other things) to those who bought it when it was terribly broken, Team17 gives more excuses, patches and mentions of WWP Remastered fizzle out, game eventually goes extinct because nobody plays it anymore, Team17 releases replacement remake (Maybe of Worms 3D), cycle repeats until Team17 somehow manages to get out of this endless cycle (if they can't, it's gonna repeat until Team17 goes out of business). Maybe Team17 should've just (finally) released Worms Battle Rally instead, since I'd rather have a Mario Kart knock-off with worms at war than a terrible remake that gets patches and "compensation" before eventually having its community dissipate rapidly.We definitely aren't the biggest market lol.

Sounds like T17 has contracted "343 Syndrome".
Y'see, 343 Industries (a division of Microsoft and caretaker of the Halo franchise) released this game last November called The Master Chief Collection. It was meant to bring the first four Halo games together into one interface plus upgrades like 1080p/60 FPS.
The release was a disaster. The online barely worked at launch, it had crashes, saving bugs, UI bugs, and the ports of the games themselves were half-assed too, using old builds, inferior builds, messed up controls, etc.
Here's the kicker. The day of release, after several months of hyping the game up, the top brass vanished from social media. What followed were half-assed apologies claiming the problems caught them off guard, when the game was SO broken that a non-gamer playing for 5 minutes could easily tell that something wasn't right.
Then crap got piled on crap. Patches were released. They did little, with the changelogs using the word "improved" way more often than "fixed". Some even undid prior fixes. Then, compensation was announced - some in-game badges, a free month of Xbox Live (the subscription service for online play), and a port of half of a spin-off game (Halo 3: ODST without the multiplayer). Better than nothing, but these items were only given to people who played the game within the FIRST FIVE WEEKS of release, when the game was still partially broken SIX MONTHS on! (http://teambeyond.net/halo-the-master-chief-collection-six-months-later/)
Then, just recently, with the game mostly working but certainly not polished, the head of the company came out of hiding...and gave more excuses. And with Halo 5 on the way, patches, and even MENTIONS of The Master Chief Collection are drying up real fast.
And guess what? Their plan is working. The reviewers mostly ignored the bugs at launch, assuming they'd get fixed, then never did a second look at it - all of this information has been gathered by unofficial Halo fan sites. The online population has dropped like a stone, and people are buying into the Halo 5 hype, which looks like flashy, throwaway Call Of Duty-style gameplay.
The cycle goes on.
But perhaps we are? We CAN buy the game, we CAN write a negative review on steam and WE CAN get refund. That would backfire badly on Team17's behalf and perhaps make them take action? Hopefully for the better. .
It will be cool if people in TUS buys WWP:R, write a negative review in Steam (possibly with mentioning the superiorities of WA) and then refund game. Steam let's you refund game if you play it less than 2 hours and if you ask it in first 2 weeks after your purchase. And I don't think they can remove reviews from Steam.
Tomorrow is release, who is buying?This guy

Good news is, the reviews are justice.

I see mostly bad reviews in my language lol.
And the prize was $7.99, now it's $8.99 within an hour, is it normal? :o
T17 will never see any money from me anymore.Instead of rereleasing a game with a community, WA, they rerelease a game that was a shitty cashgrab of WA to begin with. Its a cashgrab of a 10 year old cashgrab. Screw t17 they are so out of touch its unbelieveable. Please don't support this bullshit, people. It sets a terrible prescedent.
When Worms Reloaded came out I bought it blindly without checking any rewievs, cause well f@#! it it was 2d and I was realy hyped about it.
But that huge pile of crapshit game, resistence to community feedback and the inability to fix striking bugs destroyed my trust in T17 forever :'(

Please make a new thread to promote this, some people will have forgot this thread or choose to ignore it by now.
How is piracy punishing them when nobody is willing to buy anyway? :D In fact, d/ling the game is punishing yourself pretty much.agree, easily a self pwn

Good stuff, repped and commented.
Y'all should join the shaming happening in the discussion section too! :)

i just wonder why they released a buggy version, shouldn't be rocket science to create a working clone of their own game ;DYeah, and the sounds sound pretty decent, but the game is impossible to play without it crashing. They should make a patch...
actually our community is pretty funny, first we cried about 3d worms and they went back to 2d. then we cried about the physics not being like in wa and they released a remastered version of wa physics. you can blame them for their execution but not for their decisions.
Lol, enough of this post, WWP remastered is coming back in September. Just stop posting more sheets if you don't give a f@#! to WWP:R!! LOL!
My eyes are burning watching this daily. ><(http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140709014741/playstationallstarsbattleroyale/images/7/75/WillEyesBurning.gif)

But on the other hand, that's their own fault I guess.

Can someone objectively give the list of the new features in this game?nothing to speak of, fada.
It would be greatly appreciated.
A wise choice you have made. The game is also unstable and crashes often due to bugs. As of now, the game is not worth it. Unless Team17 fixes it, which I have a good feeling that they will. They do reply & take heed to the reviews that are posted on Steam.
Pfff... I brought nearly all the worms games. All together I played them for less than 1% of the time I played W:A =)Wormpot is a stupid gimmick, so i hope not.
I'm not sure if I really should buy a nearly 100% clone of W:A.
Now I'm afraid, W:A 4.0 won't have the (few) additional WWP features, or worse W:A 4.0 won't be allowed by team17 because it would compete with WWP.
Does any1 know if (maybe even when) there will be W:A 4.0 [with wormpod etc. features]?
Worms World Party Remastered Update #1
Hello Wormers,
We really hope that you’ve been enjoying Worms World Party Remastered over the last few months. We been listening to your feedback and we know that there are ways that the game can be improved and we’ve been working towards making it a better experience.
• Frontend upgraded for a high resolution experience at 1080p.
• The game now runs at 60 fps on recommended specs
• Alt tab issue improved: alt-tabbing/minimizing no longer breaks the game but you will have to click the WWPR shortcut to get back into the game
• Added control scheme page for keyboard in the Option menu
• Various improvements on the pad controls
• Various improvements on the mouse sensitivity
Some of the issues we encountered ended up being harder to fix than we first thought, which delayed this update, but we are committed to supporting Worms World Party Remastered and the awesome Worms Community. We appreciate your patience. Now go drop some concrete donkeys on your enemies...
Does rank system works on This remastered version?Yes, it uses global steam leaderboards (points). However, there's no one online.
Seems useful. Glad t17 is hard at work.Does rank system works on This remastered version?Yes, it uses global steam leaderboards (points). However, there's no one online.

What about transitions between load screens? Are they still slow? Does ESC work for quicker exit? So used to that.Transitions are faster than in the original game, but still use fade-outs. Escape doesn't work.
