give it a try before chopping it down. if you come with a negative attitude towards everything why even play games or do anything ? everything will be bad.

Incorrect! It often means that the thing you're doing is actually better than your preconceived negative thoughts about it. If you go in all positive you're more likely to be miffed.

negative way of looking at it tbh. its pretty obvious some here will be here tomorrow ready to chop it down . already here now doing so. im just saying give it a try before rubbishing it or if you not interested in it just dont bother posting.

I'll be buying this, watched a few streams and I'm in!

Don't get me wrong I have been waiting for scum to come out for a long time.
I just thought it would have been more pve then pvp.

Oh cripes, it's Running Simulator Mk 2

Looks incredibly boring and stupid (the pooping and urinating made me turn off the video instantly...so lame) and offers little to be excited about. The gunplay looks horrendous too. Watched a few videos/bits of streams and can't see anything that looks like fun to me..at all. I'll wait for reviews of course but won't be buying until some solid recommendations come through.

So you think the game looks crap but if a reviewer says it's good you'll buy it? :confused:

What’s so strange about that? Plenty of folk look at a game, don’t particularly like what they see so wait for some reviews to appear before deciding whether or not to buy. Not sure what part of that confuses you.

The fact that T&T thinks the game looks "boring and stupid" but will wait for a reviewer to say it's good before buying. T&T has watched videos and streams but.... will wait for reviews? To me the decision would have already been made.

whatever review you choose dont use macs. he slates most games then says oh but its early access. then changes his mind in a later review. just to bag reviews.

watch streams . loads of big people on twitch streaming it right now

Ha! Yeah, it's kind of a sensible way of going about purchases generally. Reviews and other player's feedback.

What's your plan of action then? Buy it regardless?

Well, you're wrong. What they've show so far doesn't appeal to me much and I don't like the immature humour...so, i'll wait for reviews and feedback.

I watched some streams yesterday which is what i've used to form my opinion on it so far.

I've watched people streaming over last couple of days. Looks like I will have a bit of fun for £20 so I am buying it.

Confused me as you have watched videos/streams and think its crap but waiting for reviews. I would rather watch people play live and go off there views/reactions.

Who's reviews do you trust?

how many of these streamers are being paid to play it? seems to be quite often the case with youtube videos these days.

do the have to declare on twitch if they are being sponsored to play it?
with youtube it seems people only play certain games when the videos are sponsored and wouldn't choose to play it off their own backs, but then again a lot of streamers are drawn in to only playing games people want to see because viewers matters more than them actually enjoying something.

Pretty sure you can go straight into PvP from the off rather than doing PvE first.

not many will be being paid to play it but obviously if a game is hot most streamers want it. so they get loads of viewers which = loads of money. shroud for eg last night had about 80,000 watching at peak. he normally has 40,000 for pubg. he said early on ohh i dont think i will be playing this again but i guarentee those numbers stay high watch that change instantly LOL.

sad thing is some youtubers or streamers will crap on a game if they cant prosper from it or have no affiliation from it. as one they get views from doing so and arent going to play again so no loss . this is why some studios have programs for testing and streaming youtube like EA Dice. as it can ruin your game before its even out.
