Flannelette posted:Sounds good, one of the best parts of JC3 was the battle mission at the end of each area. With aircraft and transport ships carrying tanks and troops coming in and fighting with the rebels in a big battle. the seem to be making more things destructible and making battles a thing that happens dynamically in the open world. i am probably gonna pick this up next week if it reviews well and the PS4 version isn't poo poo.

Kibayasu posted:Depending on how much you trust Jim Sterling/the people who pass information to Jim Sterling a lot of the problems with JC3 (and other Square Enix titles at that time) can likely be attributed to someone(s) at Square Enix being absolutely convinced the PS4 and Xbox 1 were going to bomb so they were shifting a lot of their time and money to more "online" stuff - hence there were things like Sleeping Dogs Triad Wars. Then the PS4 did really well and Square had to quickly shift a bunch of stuff back into the more regular model. Square Enix seems to be kinda of just a terrible publisher with anything outside of their niche. they seem to expect every western game they publish to make red dead/GTA levels of money.

I haven’t seen many reviews on it yet outside polygon and they arnt finished yet. They seem mixed on it gameplay wise and I looks like they barely fixed the main mission structure from 3 but more linear and a ton of timed poo poo. Normally that wouldn’t mean poo poo but apparently a ton of poo poo is locked behind region conquest.

VanillaGorilla posted:Played a couple more hours. Same verdict: it’s fun as a destructible sandbox but the game around it seems paper thin. Sucks, really glad I didn’t buy it now, sucks. Earwicker posted:playing on xbox one x and can confirm the game is a big ugly mess. Christ, i wonder what happened? They seemed to have learned from 3.

Hav posted:But who’s stoked for the awesome ‘Rage 2’ now, eh? i am, i liked the setting from 1 and having it made by doom people and the dudes who made mad max seem like great combo. Hav posted:
Oh a 100%. bulletstorm is loving classic and a legit good and funny game.

Oxxidation posted:another game seriously hampered by over-enthusiastic enemies, but otoh it let me rescue hostages by driving a pickup truck through the wall of the building in which they were tied up really. it runs well for me and it looks pretty. shooting hundreds of EDF chuds in ever expanding fire fights as Martian working class revolutionary is fun. Oxxidation posted:the weird pseudo-loyalty system of Mercs 1 added an unnecessary layer of stress to the game, i thought id like if the faction stuff meant anything. like outside an ending and sometimes a free airstrike.

Inzombiac posted:It's still quite fun but a lot of the gloss has rubbed off with time. it definitely shows its age but gameplay wise its still fun, which counts for a ton in my opinion. Hav posted:I thought this would be a safe fallback after fallout '76. i am pretty sure i got that for christmas.
