[QUOTE=cdr248;40195551]I think the point was that you were wearing a large helmet with a small visor. [editline]7th April 2013[/editline] Or maybe we want to preorder to help support the devs[/QUOTE] Wearing a large helmet with the goggles in the game would not give you super duper binocular vision
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;40190688]you know your game kicks ass if the only major complaint you're getting is that the new watch is weird[/QUOTE] And selling a fucking difficulty as a preorder bonus
[QUOTE=JerryK;40191662]please do not buy this game, these assholes need to learn a lesson about shitty pre-order bonunes[/QUOTE] Actually THQ were behind this, and Deep Silver - The new publisher has done everything they could to change this, but obviously they can't do much since people who already pre-ordered had bought these benefits like Ranger Mode.
Can't wait. Picked up the original on a Steam sale and was completely captivated by its atmosphere. The linearity was a bit of a turn but the stealth and shooting mechanics combined with the oppressive atmosphere was so solid I can't get upset about its shortcomings. [QUOTE=Sir Colton;40193575]For those that want to get really into the game before playing, I recommend reading the translation of Metro: 2033. It's a great book, long, but in a way that it never goes too slow.[/QUOTE] Actually doing that right now! [IMG]http://snag.gy/3Q0L3.jpg[/IMG]
Going to need a new PC or laptop for this one, loved the first one! Also, I second reading the book, actually both of them; 2033 and 2034. The second book is about the character Hunter, who's both in the game and the first book, excellent stuff.

I read the book not long ago, fucking hell I loved it. I played the game for the third time not long ago, I'm still loving it, even with the weird AI. Excited as fuck for Last Light, it also comes 4 days before my birthday so yeah.
[QUOTE=JerryK;40195585]why support people who hate you enough to try and sell you a difficulty and even claim it's the "way it's mean to be played"[/QUOTE] holy shit it's a marketing slogan it's not the developers literally telling you you're an idiot for not getting the ULTRA HARDCORE MODE
[QUOTE=milkandcooki;40198189]holy shit it's a marketing slogan it's not the developers literally telling you you're an idiot for not getting the ULTRA HARDCORE MODE[/QUOTE] that's exactly what the marketing is though
Wow that looks really good. I should get this, but I haven't even played the first yet and the cash...
[QUOTE=JerryK;40199816]that's exactly what the marketing is though[/QUOTE] Marketing is done by the publisher usually, not the developer. I mean, there's exceptions and all, but i'd think the publishers are the ones doing that. And even if it's the devs, the ranger mode isn't a make-it-or-break-it deal some make it out to be.
