[QUOTE=kevlar jens;28261705]So how long is the campaign? The regular 10 hours?[/QUOTE] About 6.
[QUOTE=killz2much;28261771]It's short from what I heard. I think you can fly by it in 5 hours on easy. But I think people are playing it wrong. It's not about beating the campaign for me, it's trying to achieve every Skill Kill.[/QUOTE] Oh, ok. That's a bit on the short side in my opinion, so I'll probably wait until it goes on sale.
Well I'll be, an UE3 game that actually pleases my eyes. There's something that ticks me off about most UE3 games, but this one's beautiful.
Though the visuals are quite well done, the making of the lay-out feels rushed: [media]http://i.cubeupload.com/b7GsHG.png[/media] If you look at the right, it's a rock upon rock thing, which looks really unnatural. There is a ton of this, even for the floor the player walks on. And some parts of the game have big open (boring) places that you have to walk through. I have to confess however, the player will probably sprint through the level anyways to get the fastest time.
Pretty sure this game was meant to test the waters. Short campaign, limited MP, but innovative gameplay and style. Sequel will have much more I'm sure. Too bad it didn't have a "test the waters" pricetag, though...
The game is out now, I should update the OP... I'll get on it later.
[b]OH MY GOD THIS GAME IS AWESOME[/b] I fucking love this game.
[QUOTE=Soul-Chicken;28266822][b]OH MY GOD THIS GAME IS AWESOME[/b] I fucking love this game.[/QUOTE] It is, but there is no real reason to come back to it after you beat it. Nothing carries over from your last playthrough which kills replayability. I wanted to have every weapon at the first drop kit and pick up any skillshots I missed but nope, they chose to fuck me over.
Anyone else constantly lose connection to Live? It happens to me every 5 minutes or so, so I can pretty much do nothing in multiplayer since my rank gets reset too. I just love having to be connected to GFWL. :downs:
What does Gray name the robot thing again? Not Ishi.
Just started Act 3 and been having a lot of fun so far. I had some problems installing and getting the game setup (typical signs of a rushed PC port) but once the game got going those things just don't matter any more. All of the unique features really stand out: skillshots are great for shaking up firefights and some of the more obscure ones have hilarious consequences when you finally get them right; the leash adds some verticality and is a God send when things get heated; most of the weapons feel solid and they're a nice change from the generic range of weapons you seem to get in most FPSs these days. It's also a great looking game with detailed characters, high resolution textures and some beautiful lighting. What stands out the most though is that it's a very clever game with the fairly throw-away story rightfully taking a back-seat so that the fun gameplay and great dialogue are the main focus. Here are a couple of shots that I took during the short, infrequent breaks you get from killing: [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00003.jpg][img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00003.jpg[/img_thumb][/url] [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00004.jpg][img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00004.jpg[/img_thumb][/url] [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00005.jpg][img_thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/21437198/2011-02-25_00005.jpg[/img_thumb][/url]
Is there any way to enable some form of console in the game or will I be forced to make all my changes and such by opening the encrypted .ini files? [editline]24th February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Dummkopfs!;28258149]Good thing you didn't told entire bulletstorm plot in one sentence...also good thing i finished the game already///[/QUOTE] What do you mean? All of this happens in the first friggin' chapter! Except the Serrano being alive part. That comes in around chapter 3 or so.

[QUOTE=TizzYcho;27694223]The AI is awful. Once you played the demo once and go back through it you can pretty much predict where every enemy spawns and moves. And whoever is doing the the voice for the main character...my god, shut it up.[/QUOTE] I happen to like Steve Blum's voice, thank you very much.
I liked the part when they said "Dick".
The whole game from beginning to end is one great experiance. I will definetly play it again sometime soon, PCF did a great job with this
Oh my god THAT FUCKING ENDING.
[QUOTE=Soul-Chicken;28269486]I liked the part when they said "Dick".[/QUOTE] Careful, talk like that'll get your dick killed. Allegedly.
Anarchy with friends + voice communication is just I hate the word but It's Epic. Plain and simple.
Oh.. oh god, I just beat this glorious masterpeice and... [sp]When Ishi said "God.. is... dead." it made me want to jizz in a golden bowl as a gift to the great gods of Greek and Egypt. Asking for one thing in return; to ask them to join together once again as they did to create Bulletstorm, and jizz in hell's flames to forge the epic sequel. That epic sequel, is Bulletstorm 2.[/sp]
Beat it, and I have two things to say: Well that was pretty much the ultimate sequel hook in the entire universe ever. And holy shit it was a damn good game.
$60 in america on steam $70 in Australia on steam. Our dollar is over the american dollar, the fuck
It's because nobody cares about Australians.

[QUOTE=CaMpEr_GuRL;28274347]It's because nobody cares about Australians.[/QUOTE] Well.... Nobody care's about you!
Well, just beat the game. Fun, but got pretty repetitive around Chapter 4. Sliding is the best thing ever, more games should have sliding.
Steam, why you release at 6PM :argh:
