OK I have played the game for about 20mins and i have drawn some very quick conclusions from it.
Firstly, most of the cutscenes can be skipped. Of the four or five that i encountered, I think three of them could be bypassed by pressing escape. Only cutscenes that were at the begining of a level could not.
I agree that the levels look nice and pretty
Its a shame that the objects stand out like a sore thumb. I mean come on. Who has looked down the ramp at the start (before the training). Here we have a lovely world with what looks like a badly drawn gun-like-thing 'stuck' on top...
Its a shame.
Loading times. I have to agree that it does take 20-30seconds to load a level (timed), but it doesn't feel to bad. Certainly quick saving only takes 2-3 seconds.
Gameplay: sucks. A few times i was walking down a corridor to all of a sudden find myself getting hurt. I looked back and forth but to no avail. It turned out that a baddie had spawned on top of me. I am all for creatures coming from behind. That is realistic. But for god sake, make them come from somewhere... a hatch in the roof or something. Making people randomly appear is great in games like Serious Sam, but in something more... 'serious' its just plain stupid.
The pistol is just plain crappy. I dont think that i have killed anyone wiht it yet. They just move too damn fast for it.
The assault file is pretty cool, at least in primary fire mode.
The grenade launcher is... well as Gurm put it... You do more damage to yourself.
I dont mind the running pace of your character. After all, he is wearing power armour.
The shitty spawning baddies, combined with naff weapons is gonna lead to a prompt uninstall.
Shame.
