One of the most overhyped game I've ever played. Incredibly boring and uninspired. It’s the 100th run and gun CoD clone of the 2010s there is nothing special about it apart from meching up… but that’s all? I mean there are better mech fighters out there (Armored Core for example)
- AlexandrB 3y agoIt's not the mechs that make it special, it's the movement system. Shooters generally regressed from doing wall jumps and dodges in UT2003 to slow, plodding, realistic ground movement. Cover based shooters were probably the nadir for me personally. Titanfall 1 & 2 are the rare recent examples of mainstream shooters where complex movement is possible[1]. [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwz0FHdRQa8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zwz0FHdRQa8
- piva00 3y agoThe movement was much more dynamic than the CoDs from the time, the 3-dimensional fights reminded me much more of the time I played Unreal Tournament and Quake than any CoD and much less CS that I used to play competitively from the betas to 1.6. So yeah, completely disagree with your take.
- awelxtr 3y agoIt is not just the mechs that make it special It is the combination of having to play as pilot, when you are small and nimble but fragile, AND as mech, when you are big and clumsy but durable and powerful.
