Talking [FOR DEVELOPERS...if you even read this]Obstacles. Just some suggestions.

If this was posted already, then w/e. I just wanted to post this 'cause they would really make Thief 4 better.

The obstacles in Thief 3 are great. I was just playing it again because, well, the game is awesome. My opinion on Thief 4's obstacles is that it should be more fluid to move from one obstalce to another and the movement should be fluid as well. Much like [Prototype] or Assassin's Creed. Also I would just like the abilit to climb to the rooftops of buildings and houses because that hideout on the roof in Thief 3 is my favorite one. And...uh...how about maybe adding opening windows and hanging (I wish it was in 3), swimming (I want to sneak on people while in the water), a third person view choice (first person and third person choice like in T3...I like to switch sometimes) and maybe he come with a grappling hook like in Damnation instead of the gloves. The gloves were cool, but a more practical thing would be a grappling hook. Both of the climbing instruments wouldn't hurt but if it was "one or the other", pick the grappling hook! O.o maybe add a crossbow, throwing knives (serves two purposes: 1) close up, it acts for stabbing 2) far away, you can target a person to throw it at them), better targetting and a sword...the sword not so much, since it's a sneaking game. Can there also be CQC like from Metal Gear Solid, where I can come close behind someone and grab them and snap their neck or put them to sleep...whatever fits. These are just some suggestions that I thought would be more fun with Thief 4. Besides that, you can make the movemnt and stuff like T3. It'd be super. I would like to play T1 and 2, but I don't know where I can buy them.
Make sure it has a good plot with alot of twists and turns. And the zombies...they scare me ALOT, but it wouldn't hurt to add them again like the orphange in Audale, I believe.

.:NOTE:. Please don't rush this game like they did Advent Rising because it was a good game but if they worked on it more, it would've been awesome. I know the graphics will be better this time because it's coming out for nex-Gen consoles too, but can you add a Shader Model 2.0 patch or something like Bioshock? (I was disappointed when I couldn't play [Prototype], Tomb Raider: Underworld, Assassin's Creed, Prince of Persia [2008] because of my Shader Model 2.0 card.) I'm still in the process of upgrading my PC and hopefully I have the time and money to buy a Shader Model 4.0+ card.

I know. But if they add these things, do you know how fun it would be?! It'd be like MGS+Assassin's Creed mixed with a little Tomb Raider. I would probably twitch at the sight of it's awesomeness.

To the OP: Do yourself a favour and play all 3 games, then repost this thread TDS isn't a bad game, but you really need to know what the other games are like

The Thief games are already awesome enough as they are ("Masks" mission in TMA anyone?). They helped revolutionize the stealth genre, I want it to keep it's uniqueness and not turn into a generic action/adventure/"stealth" hybrid.

Yes, the combination you suggest would be pretty fun, but that would probably be best left to a totally new title where they can change the styles of gameplay, storyline, etc. Keep brainstorming those ideas though old chap, just some aren't suited for the Thief series.

Yeah, Thief games don't need powering up and hybridizing. Criminy...!

Hehe, at least he didn't ask for Garrett to have frag grenades and a rocket launcher.
