not sure whether this means that playing through the story in coop will force the same player to always have to host, in order to not replay already done quests.. and not getting any loot after taking part in a quest is stupid.
the game sounds mostly good, except for the above |
The people at RPS are pretty dumb tbh. You do get the loot reward for the quest, but not if you've already done the quest before.

John: I must have my rant about the interface. For a game that boasts it understands that PC players use the mouse, and that it’s PC first, something went wrong. The game opens with “PRESS ENTER”. Mmm hmm? Then there’s so much that’s insane. You can only invite people with “i”, and you can only get out of the invite screen by pressing “ESC to cancel”. Comparing weapons can be started with the mouse, but only exited with the keyboard. And here 360 control icons appear in the inventory. You can’t click on the keyboard shortcuts to activate them. You cannot scroll through quest text when being given it without using Page Up and Page Down, despite there being a triangle button for the mouse… It’s not good.

The RPS folks aren't very bright, obviously a good control interface for the PC is for the casual gamers, i mean fuck that shit, this is a game that doesn't fucking suck.

I actually like GT's reviews, I never pay attention to numbers but rather what they say and they do a good job at highlighting the important shit.

Why isn't there a PC release of this yet, wasn't it supposed to be released today for all plataforms?
Will the PC version be delayed?

You're kidding, right mate? You're just pulling our legs... riiiiight? Holy shit, either I - and the rest of the forum - are on ignore, or you really didn't see the shit-storm I kicked up about 8 pages back because of the needless delay 
In a nutshell; PC version was delayed six days after the console version in order to capitalise on console sales, the more expensive SKU. GBX claimed it was for optimisation and feature implementation, like a specifically designed-for-PC GUI - but as the latest PC previews have turned out; the UI is clunky and obviously designed for looks AND feel of a console.
So yeah, that was a lie. Still, only six days to go!! Woohooo! |
I came only to know about this game today after I saw it's review on GT

The delay was completely legitimate, to allow an extra 6 days of testing for the PC version. Don't listen to sabin.
Correcting people since 2007 even if they're not wrong.

In some ways mate, I envy you. I really do. The worst thing about my gaming tastes is that when a game comes along that I want; I pine for it. The longer I have to wait, the more I want it and the more impatient and gripe'y I get  |
I believe that my impatient for MW2 would seriously undermine all fellings of impatient that you had during your entire live.
Actually, the only reason I want this game is to make the wait for MW2 a little more bearable.

True, but surely he'd have had to OK it. Right?

No it's not out, but several retailers already got the PC version, infact some of them even got it at the same time as the console shipments.
Point being that it's been ready for release at the same time as the console release, so the "extra few days" to finetune the PC release was of course just made up.

Surely they wouldn't lie to people just to make more money right?
Right?!  |
