TB official review # 672: What a bunch of shite.

The developers have taken exactly the same engine ripped out the sp campaign enlarged on the mp section a bit and walked grinning to the bank.

I'm totally with tb. maybe it's just me, but lately it seems MP is all around, while SP experience is being neglected...and that's bad, real bad.


You know why it's MP all around?
It guarantees that a larger (while not all) % of the players buy the game, remember a lot of people who have modded units don't play backups online.

Uhh, no. The reason they went with a focus on coop, is because it was requested by a large base of the players, and they saw how well it worked out with RE5.


Yes but RE5 had a single player mode wrapped around a STORY.
This is pure greed.

I for one am very sad that this doesn't have a real SP component. I loved the first LP and was raising my hands and pointing to the sky with a huge YAHOOO when I saw this come out. What a disappointment and waste of a download. I never read up on this game so I had no idea they were messing with the SP. How sad Sad

I never played the first, but I thought the grappling hook thing was new, was responding to all the QQ that there's nothing new in the game... ;p

When you start to really dig into why you failed, you notice some irredeemable AI flaws during solo play. We're more than happy for shooters to be designed from the ground up as co-op experiences, but one of the main things that made games like Gears of War and Left 4 Dead special was the fact your enjoyment didn't hinge entirely on playing them with a group of friends, because your AI partners were intelligent enough to ensure it was extremely good fun either way.


So not only is there no SP story/campaign but what SP there is...is fucked, great just great.

I don't get it. The review says that the MP is amazingly fun, but then only gives the game a 6?

I didn't get that at all from the review. In fact he barely even mentions the MP, except:

Quote:
...there are irritations unique to human co-op play as well. The main issue without doubt is the Battle Gauge system. In single-player, team member deaths never deplete your stock of points, but when played alongside fellow humans they do, and the implications of this logic are ruinous.

-----

As a four-player co-op mission, these epic scale battles can - at times - feel quite exhilarating as you work together to distract the lumbering form towering above you. But the longer you plough through these sections, the more it dawns on you that there's no skill involved - it's simply a case of hanging in there long enough.

----

Almost equally fun and frustrating whether played in co-op or in single-player mode, it's a game you'll both love and hate in the same breath.
