[quote name='Soodmeg']Hmmm Trak. I dont think the game is great but its certainly not the worst game ever. But just to respond.
-You can turn off the shaky cam at any point in time.
-I think they meant for you not to be able to turtle behind invincible cover, so I dont know if you can knock that part. Standing behind metal objects never killed me...standing behind anything else did. I also destroyed a fair amount of cover the enemy was standing behind so at least it went both ways.
-The arrow that shows your partner blinks red rapidly to show when he is down. Again, I dont know if thats what they meant..maybe they wanted to be anti-mainstream with 57 arrows and distance markers. If so I dont have a problem because the arrow is always on screen so there is no real reason why you wouldnt know.
-Weapons accuracy depends on what you are using. The single shot rifle is accurate from distance. But again, I am pretty sure they meant for you not to be able to turtle in cover and take out everyone for miles away. I got many head shots with pistols and rifles, never even used the shotgun other than to get that cheesemint. I didnt have a problem with the accuracy I had a problem with having to hit everyone 15+ times to kill them.
-Ai is horrid and makes no logical sense ever.
Has for things I like? I do like the characters, for whatever reason I like being Kane and Lynch. Although the first game had much better situations. The MP although slightly bland the idea of it is fun and I enjoy playing undercover cop and cops and robbers. Its not a great game by any means....like I stated before...its barely a average game. Its just seems like everyone has a over the top hatred for it that I dont understand...but hey to each his own.
I dont really understand why you are trying to compare it to gears? It not even in the same category, the only thing comparable is they both have cover systems.[/QUOTE]
- I did turn off the shaky cam, I mean all the graphic layers they have turned on. That's what makes it look washed out and ugly.
- No enemy was destroying cover I was behind like you're saying you did to them. They were shooting me through it. It's a cover-based shooter, meaning you should be able to take cover.
- When I'm in the heat of the moment, trying to not die myself and shoot enemies, I can't look for a tiny little waypoint arrow blinking. Gears doesn't have 57 arrows and distance markers. It has one circle with your teammates face in it when they go down. Not too hard to do.
- I understand how weapons and accuracy work. The single shot rifle was okay, but only a headshot was a one hit kill. Otherwise they were bullet sponges like normal. I'll admit it was pretty accurate, but you don't get it til near the end of the game.
- I can also understand liking the characters. I didn't get a chance to play Kane and Lynch 1. Everyone has said how the bank robbery was a lot more fun in that game, and that may be true. I don't care how good the characters/story is, if the fundamental gameplay is awful, so is the game.
Why am I comparing one cover-based third person shooter to another one? Uh, because they're in the same genre and one does everything way better. Everything Gears did in 2006 should now be standard. Everything should be better. This is 4
ing years later. It should make Gears look ancient. Gears makes this game look ancient. Like I said before, no redeeming qualities. There isn't a thing it does better than any other game, let alone Gears. That's a problem.
