Ekona Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 That's what I was doing, got shafted every time. Story missions seem significantly easier, bizarrely, Also, the drain ability is useless. It would be far more helpful if you got health when you did that, rather than stupid arrows. If I'd wanted a rock hard frustrating game I'd have bought Dark Souls. I don't, so I didnt. This is far from the fun slash em up I hoped for. It's not addictive, it's not fun, it's not hugely pretty, the story isn't compelling, the climbing controls are naff, button reactions are iffy at best, and I'm now 5 hours in without seeing a hint of character progression nor any sign of dominating minds. Nope, I can't recommend this at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will370z Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Ummm dan you must be pants at games it's easy so far lol. Interrogate to find the weakness of the captains and take them down using their weakness. I quite like the mechanics so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I wouldn't mind so much if I felt powerful, but it takes a billion hits to take down even the basic enemies. You can be fighting a single one, then a ton show up with a boss, then you just about manage to get to the point where you think you can beat him and then two other bosses show up and you're screwed. The carador attacks are painful, you just have to keep hitting dodge repeatedly as if you try and tine it, you'll end up in a corner with the camera blocking the QTE prompt. That's crazy.

Will370z Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Dam looks like I will be giving drive club a miss, such a shame as I was looking forward to it. First review I read slated it for bad ai and the fact that if you via from the track, often hit off by the poor ai drivers who ignore your presence then the penalty alarm sounds and you get massively slowed down, when it's not your fault. Oh that sounds fun. Next review I read this It's a shame that one of the few ways that DriveClub expresses any kind of personality is in this jarringly punitive corner-cutting and collision penalty system. For the most part, Evolution's troubled title is desperately searching for an identity. It feels less like a coherent racing game and more like an alarmingly slight support structure for a series of car and track combinations. You'll cycle through the menus multiple times, wondering if you've missed some huge, rich chunk of game. You haven't. It's baffling that the studio that produced MotorStorm, which did the automotive festival thing long before Forza Horizon hit the scene, could create something so devoid of soul. There's a brief, choppily edited first-person cut-scene of you climbing into your car before every race, but otherwise this might as well be a dystopian future where humanity is extinct and Skynet races driverless cars against each other to compute the empirical racing line.

mouthwash Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I didn't respond to this because I had to play Arena... Got 2-3 was a funking terrible deck though, I just wonder how Trump etc always manage to draft at least some good cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grundy Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I get carried away in Arena, that's why I stop playing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Still playing Shadows Of Mordor, but only because I paid good money for it. I'm not enjoying it. The single downside to buying downloads only is this. I've only ever traded in one game before because I hated it, and that was Max Payne 3, but this would've gone straight back if it were on disc.

Suits Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 Still playing Shadows Of Mordor, but only because I paid good money for it. I'm not enjoying it. Ah, thats a shame, thats had some postive reviews and you seemed keen on it IIRC. Whats your issue with it ?? It's not my type of game to be honest so I doubt I'll ever play it on purpose.

Ekona Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 It's just so incredibly frustrating. The combat doesn't flow, and I'm 50% of the way through the main story and I'm still not very powerful at all. It takes forever to kill even the most basic of orc. Also, the story is a bit crap. And they didn't get Andy Serkis to voice Gollum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ekona Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 MAX PAYNE 3 WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!! Dude, it was p*ss awful. Dreadful controls, dull story, poor acting etc. MP1 was the pinnacle of that series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
