Wolfenstein - Gen. Discussion & Info

This game sucks lol. I finished it just now. I don't think it sucks by bad design, it just nothing seems to work very well together any more than average. However, some of the environments are stunning looking, but nothing is destructible.

The story is even wacky, and not in that Wolfenstein way. What's funny is that throughout the entire game, the words "Germans" or "Germany" is never mentioned. Whenever the enemy is mentioned, it's "Nazis". I'm not complaining about that, but it does water down the script and really take you out of any sense of immersion.

It seemed to have some ideas but wasn't able to implement them at all. Definitely just an attempt at a cash-in with not much of a budget. I will never play this again.

WOW thought this was still in beta and had no clue it came out yet. I take it this came out tuesday?
 
Single player is pretty good so far, I like the hubworld idea. Gives it that Fallout feel. Too many multiplayer achievements though. Nobody will play this long, considering how crapola it is (I havent tried it yet. Would rather just boost them.)
 
Why I can't even beat the game because it freezes every time. I thought it was this checkpoint that I just couldn't continue from, because I loaded the previous checkpoint and got past it fine but then the checkpoint after the original freezing one also would freeze. Then I realized the 3rd checkpoint would freeze even if I wasn't loading it. I shut it off cause I had stuff to do, now I go to try and finish the game (I'm literally in the last 10 minutes of the game) and I found out that my "safe" checkpoint is missing and I tried loading one at the beginning of the level and now the game freezes at the loading screen. Holy crap. I am about to contact Microsoft and try to start a petition to get MS to force Activision to either patch the game or force a recall.

Yeah this game is extremely bugged in SP. Its quite a shame. The bug your experiencing is the same that my roommate and father are having. Basically if you go back and replay a level to get all the secrets and acheivements it corrupts your save file and when you are on the airfield level in particular the game will lock up and freeze very frequently.

Actvision/Raven have really been dodging the bullet on fixing this issue, although supposedly there is a 1.12 patch coming with no ETA which i would hope would also translate into a second update for the game on LIVE.

Right now unless you play straight through the game without loading any previously played stages you make your saved game vulnerable to corruption. This lack of good testing on the behalf of Raven and ID really upsets me. I mean ID has always had excellent games, they are really letting the Wolfenstein name go down the shitter.

Whats really sad is telling my 59 year old father that after a month and a half of him playing the game on the hard difficulty after work, that he cant finish the game and will have to delete his save files and start over without replaying any missions. This comes after he is 2 levels away from beating the game and only his second xbox360 shooter he's ever played.
