I managed just under 9 hours gameplay on Normal mode doing all the side quests I seen and along the way. Ending was pathetic lol.
570GTX 60fps stable:
Story: I found it alrght and managed just under 9 hours gameplay on normal doing all side missions I seen. Some good missions but its very linear but that didnt bother me at all. I found myself taking a few breaks from this game as I wasnt exactly hooked but I persevered and it got progressively better.
Gameplay: I have read a few posts raving about the gameplay, I'm sorry but its really not that good. It is about the minimum I would expect, still fun in parts but the aiming is very poor and seems slow and clunky. The enemies are a nice touch when they get hit and they move at a good pace but the aiming sucks so hard, think it was to do with being at 60 fps :/ It was so much more fun to just throw wingsticks about and decapitate heads as it was so much smoother and faster paced. Could have used a few more bigger bosses as they were fun but I felt there wasnt enough.
Vehicles were good fun and I found myself liking the handling and upgrades and the same few tracks didnt bother me as much as I thought it was going to.
Graphics: Character detail was very good and so was the scenery detail when entering certain areas but what made it really poor was the texture quality such as pipes painted on and cans and boxes at extremely low detail. They were so bad they stood out way to much, after a few hours I stopped noticing them but as soon as I would talk to an NPC I quickly realised all the poor background boxes and books that were extremely low quality.
Sound:Amazing sound that is very atmospheric and is actually quite scary in certain places. It could be made even scarier with enemies grabbing a hold of you and a shake of the camera. Gets a little repetitive at times like when racing and a few other soundtracks that were drilling on
Menu/Interaction: This is what I hate about all recent PC games. They have poor support for a mouse, I struggled very hard to click on certain items and navigate throughout the different tabs as I had to move my mouse very fast to get it the assign button. I had to up my dpi from 450 -950 to something like 1800+ just to be able to smoothly click on items that made it too fast for aiming and gameplay. It would just not pick up slow/small movements on the menu making it pointless to even use the ctrl shortcut to select ammo, I was just double tapping my weapon binds
Why do all new games have really bad settings for mice? They have acceleration forced on and the mouse feels so poor. I play a really old game and aiming is awesome and browsing through the menu is a dream its just like I am back on the desktop.
The game got better as it went on but I found myself forcing to play through it and with the poor mouse/menu support it was grueling to continue however some gameplay bits were quite fun but like I mentioned earlier it was still nothing to the likes of quake and other fps games where its so much fun to move and shoot. I found it pointless to aim down the sight as it slowed movement and was even less accurate than being hipshot/unscoped!
Games uninstalled but it was enjoyable in parts, huge letdown however!
(Pretty sure this has just sealed my 560Ti order from OcUK).
