It's ok, so the game audience will be set to 17+, so there will be no idiot who does things carelessly btw 4 people co-op? So what can we play as? I mean the operator codename
comparing hellmet to apex will be like comparing doors to pressure (the successor is more polished and sophisticated than its precursor) (FYI: both is good)
@@PlurbleAce yeah i had a compulsion to reiterate, i wonder if theres gonna be more HELLMET-likes in the future (perferably not crammed with microtransactions)
What I really love is how this game takes a lot of elements from other games, and fits it together so nicely! Isle hacking, Hellmet’s helmet pov, lots of animations and mechanics from Ready or Not, and probably a lot more that I’m missing I’m 2 weeks late to the party, judging by all the comments, but I really hope I get a chance to play this one day… This looks awesome
Menu from old builds of SCP Secret Lab, pressure like file view, tarkov like inventory, ready or not like gameplay, hellmet view, isle hacking minigame and lore hiding as a impact frame... I am intrigued.
Ngl, in a few months this game will be looked afterwards with many players, about 800. It looks fire 🔥 Hellmet was an example of how a tactical shootout game works in roblox within the platform, and like how this one will work as well. Congratulations to you guys! I hope it works out! A big hug!
That WIP level is seriously insane, I'm not a huge fan of body cam/helmet cam styled games; but I really appreciate those PBR textures and detail models you guys have used everywhere ;)
WOW! this looks super amazing!! I'm excited for it, and I hope there will be some kind of skill tree heheh. Props to having the most realistic lockpicking minigame I've ever seen in a breach & clear style shooter.
progression elements are something we're working towards. I'm thinking of doing perks or something. Currently however we've added a new gimmick called utilities, they're items that can be slotted and used as a passive booster (such as mag tape, which increases the reload speed due to the tape's grippiness when applied to magazines, or the gun cleaning kit which increases accuracy & reduces jamming) I dont want to make the game too gimmicky though. Thanks for the feedback The lockpicking is inspired by ARES VR's lockpicking minigame and i thought it'd be cool Thanks for recognizing it
I know I am a month late but I just noticed that Odin the training guy says a similar line from Ready or Not when the door is locked. "Someones idea of a joke."
This is basically Ready or Not with hellmet cam mod in roblox. And personally I'm a hellmet and Ready or Not fan and then when I see this game it feels like hellmet but with other theme so I'm really excited for it to come out.
Can't wait to play this with homies, we will get through the mission cautiously and strategically (My friends will die the first and shoot everything they see)
loving how this looks so far, one bit of suggestion would be to focus 80% of al work on optimizing the game. having loads of features and guns is cool, but it wouldnt matter if shot registration was a merely a suggestion or NPCs became invincible and teleported through walls due to packet loss.
howcome i never saw this sooner, this looks sick, stalker/tarkov esque inventory management, headcam perspective and a rugged atmosphere with ready or not elements...amazing wonder how the soundtrack is gunna turn out
I would say this would be better than hellmet, but I don't think it's fair to compare the two considering one was made by a team whilst one was made out of a solo developer :/ edit: forgot to add but this shit looks so clean though god DAYUM
Yeah definitely. Though sensei does take contributions from time to time. One of my contributions was me donating apex's pathfinding system & tools to HELLMET. You can find my name on here devforum.roblox.com/t/hellmet-credits/2875303
yeah cuz apparently hellmet invented helmet cam or something lol. People complain from time-to-time about the game being a clone of hellmet, and while it kind of is, it's mostly because of the perspective. Remove the perspective and the game becomes a generic FPS/RON shooter. I'd prefer something unique, since helmet-cam story games are really rare on the platform and "bodycam" (fps with a grain filter) has been milked already. Sensei's idea of the helmet camera perspective was really genius though, not because it's unique, but because it actually works from a gameplay standpoint. If it was bodycam it'd be a generic fps shooter, or if you wanted realism, you'd have your arms covering the camera, which would obscure vision and ruin the gameplay.
Would be great if there were "shot placement dependant" death animations like in RoN. The fact you can shoot a suspect in the leg and he has a chance to grab it and fall over while trying to balance definitely adds to the immersion. Looks like a great game nonetheless, especially for a roblox (presumably) passion project. Keep the good work up.
@@notfenvwait actually? the ticking noise is more for atmospheric feel, so it’s optional maybe you could make it real time. Eg. When it’s 8:34 PM, the clock could show 8:34 as well

The amount of fun im gonna have playing this when it comes out.. This looks amazing, great work.
Since we’ve got HELLMET means Noob vs Guest then here comes Project Apex that look like Robloxian SWAT just do their jobs at other Robloxian
This game is literally Hellmet but instead of Guest, Noobs and Dummies it was Robloxians (But seriously tho this is fire keep it up)

you never know....
it has it all. what a great time to witness something so beautiful.
Finally kids can play ready or not
Man,back in the day it was obbies and clan wars. crazy how time flies
feels like a mix of escape from tarkov, hellmet, and ready or not

The only difference will probably be lore, but who cares when the game is gonna be this good?

a wonderful job indeed

I think it has been over a year within its development

fun fact: the first prototype of this game was set to be a bodycam game, but it wasn't sustainable development wise
6:36 Holy smokes Paul Harrell
Tru
HELLMET, but with completely different lore, with Tarkov sounds, and RON voicelines??? this is literally tacticool haven
consider employment
is 2025 Q1 full release date or open alpha date or whatever?
open alpha/alpha release. It will stay open from there.
This reminds me of HELLMET, Ready or Not, Pressure, and Resident Evil combined.
if sensei's (the creators of dvn and hellmet) server was still opened, you'd probably get attention around there, maybe even get flamed
cool showcase btw, keep up da good work

For the meds, can you OD from using it too much?
we might add that but right now it's not our priority. An additional thing to be mindful of is that the bliss vial (the one that heals) is actually supposed to act like a painkiller, and not something that heals you.

add some gore bits after shooting those buckshot rounds, this ready or not will be better than ready or not itself.
