This is a very rough write-up of some issues I've noticed, along with some feedback to hopefully make the game better. Again, this is my opinion, and may differ from yours.
-Character image pics in the beginning seem low-res. Could be high-def and look much sharper.
-A set of interactive tutorials would be fantastic (for gameplay, vehicles, clans/groups, etc.), as there is just so much to do in this game with so many options the normal old text tutorials just don't seem to do the job. I'm a console gamer, not a PC gamer. When I jump into an FPS, I want to get to playing, with a brief, yet concise list of instructions/details.
-The music that plays throughout the menus in the beginning eventually stops and never loops/turns back on.
-When the screen fades to black for any reason, there's a white line of light going down the right side. (I'm playing this on the PlayStation 3D/HD display.)
-An arc/direction marker would be a great addition for grenades, as it's somewhat difficult to tell where they're being thrown.
-I don't know why, but the enemy/friend indicator just doesn't seem that straightforward. I found myself shooting at friends on multiple occasions. (That's probably more me, not sure though...)
-Smoother aiming/frame-rate. The visuals are just a bit clunky and the aiming seems jumpy and jittery as well. I could understand having a low frame-rate if the visuals were of super high-quality, but it's just too clunky for the way this game looks.
-Scopes just do not help. OK, obviously they help... a little. But I found myself getting more frustrated with these scopes as I used them. This is a futuristic title, and yet I found myself pining for the use of a modern-day sight/simple sight. If these weapons are going to be futuristic, add some function to the sights. (I make reference to the Chimeran weapons in Resistance 3.)
-Quite a bit of screen tearing as you move the camera around the map looking down on the action.
Minor Bugs:
-Went to leave battle, game hung up and froze PS3.
-Got completely stuck in a spot on the map.

Like I said, this was a very brief write-up. I hope to produce some more feedback and bug reports, if given the chance. Thanks. |
