Doug said:Berserker Bait is really doing my head in. I know what I'm supposed to do, but I don't enjoy restarting every 10 seconds. Turned the box off three times already after screwing up constantly.
I suck
I did it first time but was a bit lucky because when i got him outside he didnt move or come after me.
Mate came round last night, and we finished the game in 1 9 hour sitting and 1 2 hour sitting on hardcore. Great fun and we agreed best game we've played in a couple of years. The first beserker caused some girlish screams though lol
I am loving this game !
Completed it on casual yesterday.
I am now playing on hardcore and collecting all 30 tags.
Most games i leave after 1 play through but this is awesome
Multiplayer is good, but i am enjoying the single player more

I have to say the games great but lacking in some areas, the squad ai is pretty dim to say the least, lost track of the amount of times ive been attacked by wretch's only to have dumbass dom standing behind me watching them attack and doing nothing to help. The amount of times your teammates need revived is also kind of laughable, aren't the GEARS meant to be the elite? Id hate to be relying on them for anything as nearly every big fight they all end up getting owned and you have to trot about reviving them.
Ai also seems kind of screwy in some places, one level dom walked around a corner and walked straight into a trolka turret, i bounce round and revive him, he does the same thing. 3 more revives later i get him to follow me around the corner where theres an alternate route to get the gunner from behind, i literally had to hammer the regroup command over 50 times to get hmi to follow me as every time i stopped he kept heading to the corner with the turret just to get shot up again.
Saying that thought the squad do have personality, the little one liners cole comes off with really makes it seem mroe real.
Multiplayer im not touching till they sort out that grenade tag crap, i refuse to play something where people just want to play the game like sad kids and use what is essentially a very cheap killing tactic that is nigh on imposible to defend against.

It happens/has happened in nearly every online game I can remember (going right back to quake 2 when people would get shot when they had stopped to type something)
I now say...if you can't beat 'em, join 'em.
(how do you grenade tag someone?
)

I'm guessing if they made the squad AI really good, then the game would be loads easier? Your squad would be doing everything for you which = no point.

Yeah the fact that some of them do such stupid things and get themselves killed is annoying, especially when they ask you to flank the enemy then you get half way there and have to run back cause the idiots forgot to take cover

Just met my first Berserker. That was HARD. The AI was dying every 30 second and the only solution was split screen co-op. Fantastic and terrifying, ducking and dodging and having it smash through walls and columns.
Don't think I could have done it with the AI Dom.
