Section 8

[Anim]

Secondaries ie nades etc. Looks as though whilst headshots count its equally worth hitting the same point on the target continuously to reduce the sectional armour.

Game is far less balanced now though without certain counters to things, mechs can walk around quite happily now stomping on people without tanks around.

Played this at i37, immense isn't the word

 

[lokiguesty]

also played at i37

pretty good, once you get into it and if the team plays together to work towards the objectives then i think it could be a lot of fun.

Got the open beta this morning waste of 2GB IMO

Terrible gfx at least 4 years out of date and boring uninspired gameplay. The only feature which seperates this from any other FPS is the drop in to anywhere on the battlefield but even that is going to have limitations otherwise it would be unbalanced.

This should be a budget game or MP only subscription model either way its unlikely to sell very well on PC and console players are already slating it for poor gfx (Some of the textures are so bland they could be shaded circa 1997 polygons only and it would look the same).

Reeks of console-ness.

Just downloading the Beta now, shall give it a whirl see how it is.

 

[FlukeRogi]

Had a play for half an hour, but it did nothing for me at all. Exceedingly average imo.

my thought exactly, just didnt feel right somehow

Shame as that video in OP sold it well

 

[Skeeter]

Well that was a big fat waste of my time and bandwidth

 

[Last Kronin]

I find it ok, but theres a few things i dont like, as mentioned the gfx look a bit dated, whats the point of lvleling up if you gain nothing from it or maybe thats disabled in the beta.

this game is bloody brilliant !!!

the graphics are smooth and fluid no matter whats going on and more importantly the gameplay is superb !!

Looks a bit too "Halo" to me...

I've been playing it since the closed beta and it's a fantastic game. Great fun, a bit different from your standard FPS. The open beta is more of a demo with some features disabled, sadly this hurts gameplay a little but the beta is still very good. Graphics are great, looks good and runs like a dream. Looking forward to the games release

It's on Steam too http://store.steampowered.com/app/38220/

i cant put this game down its that good and is on pre-order, cant wait to try out the equipment currently locked in the beta..

i think casual gamers get scared when an fps comes along with jetpacks !!!!
