Too Human

The co-op takes away all of the story elements, and alters some of the levels a little. Haven't had a chance to try it out, probably will once I've finished the story.

Just about to ding lvl30 @ 21 hours :)

This is the thing that puts me off the game, not having the story in co-op mode :(
 
Enjoying this so far, not keen on the rs combat but its just through habit of using it in another way previously.

When your hurt can you heal or is just a one time orb health pick up? You cant store any?

Its only the irritating cut scene that gets on my nerves.
 
The only way to heal is orbs, you can't store any.

I agree the cut scenes and death scenes are annoying, they just get in the way.
 
I dont have the manual because I'm renting, i'm a commando whats best to spend skill points on?

Dare I say this but I prefer this to mass effect. Although I find the targetting with the guns a bit iffy.
 
Not sure whether this has glitched on me or not, doing the first level and fighting my way through. got to a door and my squad never came through. They keep talking "we are ready to move out" etc but there is no squad there???
 
I picked this up over the weekend and am enjoying is so far. I am only a lvl 10 Human bio-engineer. I have managed to get through the 1st level but am getting slaughtered on the 2nd level (the ice forest!).

I might have to go and do a bit of ginding to get some better gear!
 
This game has suprised me, rented on a whim to put a few games on my list. 7 hours played today, mind you an hour of that was paused as it still adds to your game time. At the 20% mark.

Really enjoy the combat, the only games of this type I like are KOTOR and I prefer that over the deeper less combat Mass Effect game type.

I'm getting killed a lot. A few things I dont yet understand but I'm more into this story than mass effect.

I'm probably going to finish it once then send the rental back and buy it cheaper to play again later in the year.
 
well I now have a level 50 human champion and a level 10 cybernetic bio engineer.

Currently running the game trying to get a set of elite armour and by all accounts i'm probably going to have to put another 40 or so hours into this before I get the complete set.

Although I hvae truely enjoyed this game having arleady clocked up 40+ hours game play with my main character I feel some elements let this game down these include

1) Random camera angles at the most critical point of a fight.
2) Status attacks by the enemies always seem to get me and mostly kill me even with full health and decent armor.
3) Missle launching enemies are simply too powerful in this game get more than a couple of them on screen and I generally guarentee I'm going to die at least once.
4) Ice forest is just so hard to try and do an unstoppable run on. I can see what the designers were trying to do but they seemed to have made this particular level only doable in co-op mode.
5) Glitches with enemies dissapearing mid fight I have noticed on a number of occasions I will be fighting a troll and he will disappear mid fight sometimes they go othertimes they are just invisible so difficult to pin down on screen.
6) freeze trolls are just too powerful I am yet to successfully kill one without dying. No matter what I do I always get frozen.
7) Melee attacks can be a little hit and miss on occasions especially when trying to juggle and then suddenly you go into a slide of enemies and then get killed.
8) valkryie cut scenes. Oh why must i watch this everytime I have seen it over a hundred times now and just want to get back to the action. It was fine the first couple of times I saw this but now it just gets in the way of enjoying the game.

I still have enjoyed this game and although the story isn't as polished as say mass effect I feel I have enjoyed this more as you can just pick up intend to play for 30 minutes and then realize a few hours have passed.

If only in the next patch SK produce they can try and balance the levels a little more I would be happy.
 
Having completed Bioshock last night, I finally started this one. First level done and have a Level 9 Cybenetic Champion.

Enjoying it for the £30 I've paid, although I agree it is very buggy in places.

Possible stupid question - I take it to grind I can play with my character online? Only just got to the big HQ bit so haven't explored yet.

Online or offline, you can select missions from the terminals in the city, they're slightly different than when you play them through in story mode.

You got my message :) Trying to sign in on MSN from work but I think it's blocked. When are you about? I'm at work til just gone 8.

Loads of questions for you, will be easier over live chat than a forum.

Help me Obi wan Wyrdo your my only hope!

The shielded guys are raping me, the trolls are easy and the spider things keep bending me over. The only way i can get the shields down on them is to run away pouring fire. The large battles on the 2nd chapter when you use the purple jumps to move areas. Some of those have so many enemy I die 4 or 5 times.

I've got Champion Cybernetic going down the l/h tree on both sides.
 
Finished the campaign twice now and managed to pick up two unstoppable achievements. I only died once on the Ice Forest and twice (both at the same place) on World serpent and I'm pretty confident I could do them both now.

You do start learning how to deal with each enemy type as I died over 100 times on my first run though.

I've also played through to level 10 with all the classes and can hand on heart in terms of fun rate them:

Beserker > Champion > Defender > Bio Engineer > Commando

In terms of survivability my run though with my Cybernetic Defender was the best and Helheim was pretty straight forward with him.

dannyjo22: Spiders are easy; just shoot at them whilst walking back, or strafing and when then raise their legs just before the attack, roll and you'll avoid any damage. Easy.
I went down the left path for the Champion at first too but changed to the right side and have found it easier. He's only level 31 though atm and I'm having a break with Infinite Undiscovery before having another run through.
