This game may have me buying a new pc. Mine will run it, but it won't look as amazing as those previews. Or just a video card upgrade if the rest of my hw still looks good.
Have you ever played any of the others?
I would say to definitely play 2 as it is a very good game. It has a ton of back story and doesn't really relate to the first one other than returning characters.
My buys on release franchises are CIV, Fallout, Elder Scrolls. Witcher isn't quite there yet for me.
Yeah, I did the same thing with the first, but I saw AC2 on a really good sale at some point, so I got that and then decided to take another run at 1, still didn't like it, but then loved 2. Thought the controls were vastly improved, and there was a much more enjoyable, somewhat less repetitive storyline.
You find yourself wishing you could have a little scorecard in real life that would display all the genetic traits and skills of potential spouses for your kids before you arrange their marriages.
I think I'll stick with it. It's interesting enough. I have Brotherhood and Black Flag on the shelf too.
I have thousands of rounds. I have so many mines, grenades, etc. I started storing them. God help Megaton if someone starts a fire or something. Now there are some things that are harder to find. 44 rounds for instance. But if you have The Pitt DLC when you finish that you get to use their ammo press to make whatever you want from other ammo. I go there every so often with a couple of thousand 10 mm rounds and make a bunch of 44.
I guess I have to check out The Pitt DLC then.
I really enjoyed AC2, Brotherhood & Revelations but agree that the controls can be very frustrating. Even after far more hours invested than I will ever admit to I would still inadvertently run my character up an unclimbable wall repeatedly causing me to desync during a chase mission. Otherwise I thought the controls were pretty solid.
Pretty much a cut-scene trailer. I am interested in seeing some actual game play.
Early in the game (levels 1-15) ammo needs to be economized, and for me that's part of the fun of the game.
It's pretty short and easy really. There are a couple of unique weapons but the press is the best thing about IMO.
If you get the hunting rifle from Republic of Dave, Ol' Painless, it's pretty good. Takes a lot longer to break than a regular hunting rifle. Has zero spread meaning you usually hit 100% even outside of VATS. Lincoln's repeater is my personal favorite though.
Have to admit, even though I've been hard on the announcement, the demo got me stoked. Damn my Battlefield loving self. Already signed up, but Origin is acting up.
thought so, prolly gonna hold off then
So you just get dropped into the middle of mayhem and hope you can figure it out before some 16 year old Korean kid who hasn't slept in 36 hours hopped up Mountain Dew and Pop Rocks punches your ticket?
There is training and there are objective based missions. There is a story based "campaign" which basically adds a narrative to a series of MP objective matches.
Yeah just talking about getting back in and I can't wait. I think I am going to go completionist and finish up 3 then go back to Vegas.
Sidney got herself killed a minute after joining me. It was nice to get her gun as a consolation prize.
Cool, thanks for the info.
I think it was exactly a reskin of Battlefield 4. I am a fan of the series, but I'm a bit burnt out. I'll probably play the beta and be done with it. Who knows. I don't really have any new games on deck for the rest of the year. But that's probably a good thing as I attempt to chip away at my massive backlog.
Every gametype is 6v6 but matchmaking will sometimes start the game as low as 3v3.
Im gonna have to be "in" on that from jump street. Way too much goodness potential.
That's the frustrating part. I'm not even an FPS fan, and even I have to admit that these games are completely awesome when they work. Which makes it that much more irritating when they're broken at launch, like BF4 was. So much potential. So much let-down.
Hell the open Beta is a no risk test drive, I attempt to try everything, you never know when you are gonna find that one you would NEVER have bought and then you try it free and it becomes one of your all time faves.
Interesting. The gameplay looks excellent but that scenario felt very scripted. I agree that when you are thrown together with random jokers it will turn into a mess. It kind of compels you to have a solid and dedicated group of six who are willing to go full co-op role play instead of trying wannabe Rambos.
They didn't say "exclusive" but for MS to not even mention a game of that magnitude make me think it is at least a timed exclusive. As far as footage not out till 2015.
Activision should be really scared that Titanfall is going multi platform in the future.
Also the "story" online mode has generally much less skilled players than standard mode. You will be stomped at the start but the learning curve isn't that tough and the AI fodder make the game much better for new people because they can help the team. Also playing the objective can gain big points so you do to have to always slay everything. My girlfriend usually holds her own with objective points and helps the team when she is not that great at fps aiming.
