What the hell is wrong with you people?
So nearly soon after launching day i read many negative reviews, 5.5 from gamespot just crushed my day, cause i almost always agree with gamespot score. I was confused, how can Rebellion make a masterpiece and then wasted it 10 years later by a crappy reboot.
I just wanna say that i'm a huge fan of both species and of franchise and i'm not dissapointed with game. I'll try to explain myself.
Gameplay:
Looks exactly like the previous games in the series wIth something new and some things no more. New melee combat looks decent, it's hard enough to defeat your enemy, you should use brain and use some tactics. Stealth and grab kills are awesomeness, it never gets old. I'll give gameplay 8/10, it deserves it. Now something about characters:
Predator:
Badass as it was. Strong, fast, sneaky and powerfull hunter. We have only 5 types of weapons, i think some of previous games weapons and new movies weapons could work here good, but it's ok.
Alien:
Scary and fast ownage machine. To people that say it's a pain to operate alien - try to practise it or shut the hell up. It's hard only for the first time. Alien is a lot of fun to play.
Marine:
Prepare to change your underwear. so much adrenaline.
Graphics:
I played only DX 9 so my point could be useless. But whatever, it's superb, alien and predator looks very cool and scary. Detailising and animation are good, even very good. Eye orgasm guaranteed.
Sound:
Everything sounds amazing, and every sound from the movies is here. 10/10 and no words.
Single/Multiplayer:
Single player is short, even very short. But it's interesting enough. Worth to play.
Multiplayer is the main part of the game where you will spend a lot of hours. 7 modes, one better another. Predator hunt and Infestation are the best.
Good:
Solid action. Atmosphere. Sound and graphics. Melee combat. Rank system. Unique multiplayer exp.
Bad:
Physics. Matchmaking in mp. Not enough maps in mp. Short single player.
What else i wanted to say is that the game is very hard. You need to practise it a lot to play well. For example to rape people in predator hunt as predator you need to think a lot and really have some skills in gaming.
I think game is amazing, developers worked a lot and worked good. And yes, it could be better, but it's good enough for me to enjoy.
Thank you Rebellion.
