Thread 723086493

The tunnels they added actually go a long way to giving you the lowly scavenger vibe the trailers were going for. You really feel like a rat in a maze. However enemy AI is still shit and the tunnels expose it in a really bad way. Encounters with enemies are few and far between and when you do encounter them stealth is almost never an option. There will be a squad walking in a circle in a tiny room and you'll 3/4 of the time have to engage them to get past. Also it's now much more punishing for new players trying to get a leg up and good fucking luck getting to the late game areas. Either you spend an insufferable amount of resources which you will NOT recoup on the raid or you spend an hour hopping from tunnel A straight to where you want to go and likely dying along the way.

They also have a fetish for making shit games.

This game always looked neat but its not something I want to play. Have the devs brought up some kind of offline campaign or are they going to ride the ship straight off the waterfall?

why do gamers like this stuff?

>>723088048
it's a fresh concept, sadly in practice you 100% are that guy

>>723088048
Feels nice to be an underdog, especially when you can actually dunk on these guys, which goes against the dev's intentions

Funny you should say that, but the 'squads walking in a circle in a tiny room' really pose no threat at all if you're smart and stay out of their field of view.
Exos, Mother Courage, cultists with AA12s- sneak past them all, even with Gunhead.

If it wasn't intentional, they would not give us suppressors or grenade launchers.

Man, this game looks cool and has great visuals, but this development is awful. I think I bought this shit a year ago and months later they finally ungayed the water supply mechanic (if you stop playing you lose your base progress). If the ai is still retarded at this point then they are failing hard at making an actual game instead of a visual tech demo.

I've been playing death stranding and that fills up the void of carrying a large amount of crap while having actual fun. I just wish this games environment/atmosphere blended with DS mechanics and it would be a hit.

What was the influence behind this thought process?

they wanted to go for something more "hardcore". but they should've just made it a tactical shooter like Arma instead of a 3rd person cover shooter.

This game is so close to being good. I love the idea, the aesthetics, the characters, the enemy designs but the gameplay is so janky. It’s honestly sad. They really need to rework the movement animations in general. Climbing, jumping, sprinting,all of it feels unfinished.

This is how you know it's actually very far from being good, or a game at all
