video pitch from John Sonedecker for his Kickstart Program
BlackFoot Studios Kickstarter Pitch - YouTube
The Game
"There are a lot of people that loved Red Storm Entertainment’s original Rainbow Six, Rogue Spear and Ghost Recon but the latest incarnations of those titles just aren’t what they want. To me, Ground Branch is for those people." -John Sonedecker, Founder BlackFoot Studios, LLC and former original member of Red Storm Entertainment.
see the rest here:
Ground Branch by BlackFoot Studios — Kickstarter
I'm sorry to appear to be spamming, but, the FPS community is really really needs a TRUE Tactical Shooter.
All these new so-called Tactical Shooter with Cover-System is ruining the experience.
ArMa is too hardcore for some.
Ghost Recon is too old for some.
Rainbow Six (RSE) is also too old for some.
INF needs a graphic update.
This is where Ground Branch fills the void.
John tried the Publishing world, but, those companies do not talk Tactical...its all about the sell.
I'm trying to raise a rally here, to help John, and his vision come true. He's been up with this since 2004 by himself and maybe a crew of 4.
Please I urge you to spread thru your Twitter or Facebook or other Gaming Website.

I sit at home playing GR & Heroes Unleashed Mod....since 2001, I've been looking for a game that combines, GR and R6.
MOH SP was the last game that i rode like rollercoaster, mainly due to the books that supports the storylines.
Game wise, it doesn't reflect the Tactical Gaming that GR & R6 provided.
Since 2001, no FPS game has ever got closed.
Now that there is an alternative studio with a track record/history/true background from both games, its not a hard decision to back this studio up.
And the studio is already built....past tense. No need to do a fund raising on that issue.
As a matter of fact, there is a pre-alpha as seen on the video.
If you look at yourself in the mirror and call yourself a Tactical Gamer or tell your co-workers or friends you are, then THIS game is YOU.
This IS you.
This game was built around YOU.
This game was not designed and built at some foreign country where you come log-on the internet so you can come to THEM.
It was built, for you to use your mind and not hop on a Roller Coaster.
Atari made a game called Roller Coaster Tycoon... if that is how you like your game.
It was designed because you game using TACTICS. STRATEGY. LOGISTICS.
This game was built (past tense) by a developer who help designed the two games you LOOOOOVE.
He spent HIS OWN MONEY in a very tight economy so you have an alternative to FPS roller coaster gaming.
Now he is asking YOU to HELP, release this game.
Now he is asking YOU to SUPPORT and spread the word out, that TACTICAL GAMING is BACK in the FPS genre
Now he is asking YOU, the FPS TACTICAL Community, to step up and be heard. Be heard that YOU, the THINKING-MAN FPS, the TACTICAL gamer is DONE giving away $60 to a Roller Coaster Michael Bay arcade game.
Now he is asking YOU, to stop working DOUBLE SHIFTS so you can throw your HARD EARNED $60 game that will CON you to spending ANOTHER $10 ADDITIONAL CONTENTS, that may or may not be already in the DISC!
Why?
Because Ground Branch will now be in the hands of a MODDING COMMUNITY!
When was the last time COD allowed YOU the PAID (past tense) customer to mod YOUR GAME?
Now is the time to be heard from the BIG COMPANIES, we are DONE working DOUBLE SHIFTS just to give them $60.
SUPPORT
SPREAD THE WORD
get your Ghost Recon and Rainbow Six ...BACK!!!

$425,000 seems like a bit to much. Not sure if it will make that goal or not.
Carnage
[Silverstone TJ11] [Silverstone 1200w]
[EVGA Z77 FTW] [I5 2500k] [8gb Samsung 30nm]
[Sapphire HD 7970]
[Sound Blaster Titanium HD] [Sennheiser PC360]
[Patriot Wildfire 120gb] [Seagate 1.5tb 7200pm]
[Steelseries Sensei w/ I-2 Mousepad] [24" 1920x1200 Samsung]
Again, that target is ACTUALLY on the low end. This is an indie company.
There MANY softwares and manpower that will benefit from this target.
If the word gets out, let's say, you know someone from nVidia, who will contribute for exclusive rights, then it may decrease.
So Tweet away and pass it on.

so, unfortunate that the KS did not reach enough Tactical FPS players.
everyday, ever since the conclusion of the KS, new members are posting that they heard this news too late and it wasn't marketed properly/wisely.... don't blame the two guys trying to give our dream game. There's only so much two ppl can do, specially when marketing is not their specialty.
Anyway, they need help with some survey that may help market this properly.
It's only 6 questions.... http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/8JWQGPP
please DO PASS this survey around.
again, advance thanks

small update
http://tinyurl.com/d2wye8j
Combine leaning blends with the existing crouch/stand blends and you get your RavenShield style fluid stance. (click for video)
Head tracking – via TrackIR or Kinect (or Oculus Rift ) – adds another way for people to precisely control their stance.
Using this analogue approach is handy, but not all that natural or quick. In reality, it is easy for a person to quickly match their head and body position to peek around – and over – what ever obstacle they choose, with out exposing too much. To help with that, we are using checks based on a players surroundings, weapon position and underlying stance.
For example, to peek around a corner, press E with your weapon down – you’ll lean just enough to expose your right eye and get a good field of view.
To lean and shoot, press E and bring your weapon up – you’ll lean a bit further out then before to accommodate your weapon and let you take the shot.
In addition to the programming changes, related animations are also being reviewed and updated as need be. We’re trying to avoid awkwardly bending the character at the waist and go for a more full body oriented lean from the legs up.
Being a feature that will be utilised often, we feel it is well worth the effort.
