Wolfenstien The Old Blood

Into the confession booth:

Please forgive me my sins but the final boss got on my nerves so I switched the difficulty from 'I am Death incarnate' to the easiest setting just to get it over with. I feel a little dirty and I sacrificed a Steam achievement but all in all... that was good fun. Recommended.

I must admit I have a confession as well.

I am ashamed to say I have had this installed from the weekend after release.....and haven't played it yet

I apologise to the pcmr community as I not worthy, but will hopefully redeem myself this weekend

You fail at life!

The final boss is rather easy actually....

just dont bother with the soldiers or zombies and stay away. When they appear is the boss kills them for you, once he's done that simply shoot him in the mouth....a lot! Rinse, repeat.

Oh good. My pre order has finally despatched from the tropical jungle

Still can't figure out why we had to wait another 10 days for the hard copy version to arrive.

Really looking forward to this game. It's the main reason I recently upgraded to a 970 from a 670 (lushness abounds at 2560 X1440 with 3gb or more in WTNO).

Can't get into GTAV at all.

Maybe I just enjoy killing Nazis.

On my second play though only to get all the collectable's. But I might add I did not kill the final boss as I really hate them. Preferred this to the last outing I must admit.

Boge · 15 May 2015 at 20:14

ah yeah. Final boss levels. Always, always hated those. Life's too short for that.

Godmode in the console. Done.

Loved that.

Has anyone else seen the screenshot of the original Wolfenstein game in The Old Blood?

Indeed. It was quite short but just as good as the original game, which I might install again now I have a faster PC!

Loved the game but the final boss was a bit pants imo, seemed a last minute "oh **** we forgot to add the boss!!".

Storyline was epic though and easily worth the £15. Hope they do another wolfenstien

Garfo · 19 May 2015 at 13:16

Sui · 19 May 2015 at 13:46

Finished it on Saturday. It was alright but I thought it got a bit pedestrian until the bit near the end. It might be me though - FPS just haven't done much for me for some years (though I keep buying them).

AHarvey · 20 May 2015 at 17:36

Just me that felt a little underwhelmed by the game?

I loved the one before, thought it was great but something about this one didn't click for me. I've just finished and walked away not fussed about it at all

James J · 20 May 2015 at 18:32

I really enjoyed it, especially when the content in it actually shows far more of return to castle wolfensteins enemy types than I first realised.

Nexus18 · 20 May 2015 at 21:05

Does msi afterburner/rivatuner OSD work for anyone else?

edit:

urgh, the texture pop in is bloody awful! The last game had it but not this bad :/

Just finished this...it started off okay...

..but once the nazi zombies kicked in it went downhill.
The end came out of nowhere, the final boss was fairly easy once you figured out he's sound activated... which didn't take long to realise since he only attacked where noise was and always implied his head hurt.

Overall not a bad game.. probably only worth picking up when on a good sale though. Which is a shame because I enjoyed the first game.

AHarvey · 21 May 2015 at 20:26

exactly what put me off Epoch, the very same feelings about it!

neoglow · 22 May 2015 at 21:09

Something I hate about some games - including this one - is the gun sound effects are utter ****. They don't have any oomph to them, they are so flat and dulled down.

Game is okay, other than the naff weapon sounds, it's just more of the same like New Order.
