You can farm engima codes by replaying the ubercommander missions so don't worry about running out although i also found the enigma machine tutorial was pretty terrible. i googled it and didn't waste a single code once i understood it.
Finished the game last night, expected a bit more from the lead up the final mission and was quite surprised it ended when it did. Story was a great ride though and the shooting was fun once you dial the difficulty down. Playing stealth felt quite hit and miss at times, i managed it much more in the first game but in this one I think I only took out the commanders a handful of times without being seen. The contraptions didn't really add much which was a bit of a wasted opportunity and a couple of new guns would have been nice.
Still I'd recommend it and looking forward to the next one.
I couldn't even play the first one for longer than 20 mins.

The difficulty in parts of this game is off the scale; load, play for 10 secs, get killed, waiting another 30 secs for it to reload. Does not make it enjoyable.

First had excellen gun play, very fluid this is like wolf meets cod meets doom, hated it.
Loved the earlier two.

I just put the difficulty down to the lowest and enjoyed blasting everyone. Still got 15-20 hours out of it, not sure I'd have stuck around until the end otherwise as some sections are very badly designed in terms of giving you a chance until you learn every spawn and hiding point.
Liked the previous ones, not this one.. Only 1 or 2 fun. Maps.. I don't think any map had more than 30 guards in.. I only played it on hard but there were almost no areas that you could not just storm in and shoot everyone in a few seconds.. Seemed almost no verity of guards (the heavy armour guards were too slow to be a threat) could have done with some bigger maps, more guards and different types (give some bullet proof shields) more grenades, less armour and health drops.. They must have spent 100s of k making the cut scenes and I skipped them all (suppose some people must like them)... I cannot image wanting to reply any of this game
Weird to suddenly see so much dislike aimed at this game. I really enjoyed it, felt very much like more of the same compared to the first one (and The Old Blood) but to me. I really enjoyed the storyline too, gave the game more depth than just being a simple run-and-gun shooter.
I'm playing through the first of the three DLC episodes at the moment. It's nothing special so far, could have used a bit more polish and variety. Enjoyable enough, but it's the same weapons, enemies and gameplay as the full game when it'd have been a good opportunity to try a few new things.

Yes it's stable, I didn't have any problems with it.
Any thoughts on the season pass from anyone in here? Worth a buy?

I'd say no, maybe when it's super cheap and you fancy revisiting the game for a bit. The DLC brings in nothing new, the environments mostly feel re-hashed from the full game, there are no new weapons, enemies, gameplay mechanics etc and the storylines for all three of them are rubbish. I made it through the first two but gave up entirely on the third one.
Fair enough thanks, i've read a couple of reviews since commenting and they echo your thoughts. I'll pick it up in a sale.
