    1.) Will the look of the snow flakes and their behavior be updated? I think the ones in 2033 were just dots. More snow is always good btw! :D

    2.) A few game developers have been in the public eye complaining about the lack of power in the consoles, and how that makes it hard or impossible to make large leaps in innovation. How do you feel about the pace of console/PC development? Has it hindered the team from making one of the aforementioned "large leaps"? What would Metro 2035 be like with ~6 times the processing power?

    3.) Will M:LL support the Oculus Rift?

    4.) Will Metro:LL have modding support (ignore if already answered, ill search)

    5.) Like "Thestalker" asked: will the walking speed be slowed down? It does feel like running, especially at higher field of views.

    5.) Will we get *real* MSAA support?

    lol The Advanced settings were a joke in 2033, AA made no difference and DOF hindered performance dramatically. So +1 to your question. I'd love to see better optomisation in LL (and not a console port) and more graphical options just like how we've been treated with games like Borderlands 2 and Dishonored.

    HUD opacity; FOV Slider; Ambient Occlusion; FXAA, Post Processing etc etc would be great.

    I guess this kind of answers it though.

    I hate to go off topic, and I see what you're saying about the differences the Advanced Settings have... But the graphics of Metro 2033, even on low quality, literally shat on the highest quality settings for Dishonored...and it came out, what, 2-3 years ago?

    Well, framerate was significantly lower than other games at the time, too. It was a very demanding game, but the graphics were very good as well. Keep in mind MW2, which was supposed to be the "out-of-this-world"-graphics game was released same year. And Metro beat that game.

    It does and graphically Metro 2033 is still beautiful looking. It's hard to make a grim, grotty world look beautiful and 4A got it right. But when frames drop as low as 30fps even on a GTX670 in SLI then you know that there is something wrong with the games optimization. NVIIDA is a partner with 4A/THQ/Metro Last Light so I hope that we gamers who love eye candy get a plethora of graphical options whilst having decent framerates.

    2033 set some high standards and because it didn't have mod support many (hardware enthusiast) gamers were left dissatisfied that 4A didn't bring out patches to resolve performance and bring more options.

    Even today Metro 2033 is used as a standard in Benchmarking and tbh I don't know why it is since Tesselation does nothing. Is it demanding or just poorly coded? Who knows but I think it's the latter.

    Following on from the answer regarding QTE's. I'm hoping that there will be fewer quick time events than in 2033, but please don't include un-necessary quick time events just like in Resident Evil 6. If they were completely removed then it wouldn't be a bad thing. ;)

    Joe is there any chance that you (or if you know the THQ marketing team will) show the reveal trailer that was shown at the "HMV" Golden Joystick Awards?

    I missed the show otherwise I would have recorded it from the live stream.

    Thanks

    I don't think it was even supposed to be a walking speed, more of a power walk where you move around quickly but can still shoot accurately. The walking speed was perfectly fine.

    SUBMISSION NOTE 10/30/2012:

    Sorry for the delay in posting answers but some minor shifts in the marketing and promotions calendar have been keeping me busy. Game is still on track for release in early 2013, looking quite beautiful and fun to play. We should have a lot more to show you before the end of the year.

    All of the questions above this post have been submitted to the development team for response. Please note that not all questions will receive attention and duplicate questions will be answered citing the member posting the question first in chronological order. I will post new answers as soon as I receive them.

    Thank you and hope you are enjoying the answers...keep the questions coming!

    Joe @ THQ

    Why do some of the character models have stupidly big boots and baggy trousers on? (it's not just this picture either.)

    It doesn't even look good or "cool" and it's unrealistic.

    Yeah, I get more and more bugged by the super baggy pants look in this and many other games, like Stalker and Planetside 2. I agree with you on something, thats a surprise.
