I can't say i had damage feedback issues but yeah i had quit for the night at the helicarrier fight in tnc, not realizing i was ten minutes from the end of the main game because lol it didn't feel like it

I don't even know how I'm supposed to get more enigma codes to unlock the last few ubercommandos now

I feel like introducing multiple dimensions but not including a bfg skin for the uberhammer is a missed opportunity for some cross ip synergy

if you mean tnc i just bought it off steam and played through it this last weekend no problem. maybe google the crash, i had one with youngblood because i had set the image streaming too high and it was trying to allocate more vram than i had

my second playthrough of tnc ended up unintentionally being mostly run and gun because i was trying to play fast and kept flubbing the stealth. i played on medium and though there were some moments that i ended up dying a few times, i particularly remember venus here, it was still solid. the reload points for me iirc it was really just a matter of, once you get a feel for the types of enemies in that area, knowing which weapon to use at a given time and using your laserkraftwerk for the mechs but not going overboard and running out of ammo for it. also remember you do have grenades. i forgot that a lot

i think that one area of the game specifically not designed for run and gun is the final ubercommando bunker where you operate in complete darkness the entire way though. but that mission sucked anyways and i wouldnt recommend bothering to play it

Where you can't do stealth. You know, forced action.

Well with the addition of cloaking there's more opportunity to stealth than the previous games, but yeah it's still the same basic gameplay cycle of stealth > flub stealth > run and gun. And there are "boss" battles and areas with giant mechs that are just impossible to kill via stealth kills. Don't expect to be able to stealth your way through the whole game

Having not played Youngblood either does the game still have the New Colossus style alarm and officer mechanics or did they rebalance it to not be bullshit?

It's the officer/alarm mechanic but you're always strong enough to where the extra waves aren't really ever an issue. I'm not sure how it worked in tnc but in youngblood I think there's a max of 2 or 3 extra waves before the radio tells them there's no more guys to send

The second half of the game doesn't entirely fall apart because the gameplay is much improved with the supersoldier upgrades but man does the pacing go out the window. Grace goes from weeping about Spesh to planning an assault on New Orleans to suddenly sidelining New Orleans for a sidequest to Manhattan in a matter of minutes. You can really tell that the enigma machine and the ubercommander hunts were tacked on at the last minute to pad out the runtime and they just torch any sense of plot progression. You either do them right away and Anya pesters you about getting to New Orleans on time or you leave them for later in which case you go straight from New Orleans to Venus and suddenly you're two minutes from the end of the game.

i thought the toilet thing and the subsequent gag where max beats set at chess were hilarious. the birthday party cutscene too

and yeah ive been fairly impressed with how the idtech 6 games dont need excessively bonkers hardware to look great while running at very high fps

the enigma machine is literally just press left/right to match the symbol and hit enter tho

i tried about 30 seconds of it until the youtube man started naturally assuming that the next wolf game is gonna undo the entire series via alt reality shenanigans

personally i just figured it was a nice doom crossover tease

Seems like it would be pretty dumb on machinegames' part to not have 3 take place post tnc so you can kill hitler, but even with that one page it sounds like in other dimensions bj is killing nazis so i dont get what the big deal is

wyatt just came off as extremely loving annoying (esp his voice, sorry dude but its true ) and i never wanted to deal with a whole game of that, let alone two

i did watch the cutscenes with jimi on youtube tho
