Interesting but not what it should have been.

I've started playing the game with hopes of a fun filled Action Adventure game in an open world but ended up having to find a game that has some fun elements and interesting features that you get bored of after about 15 minutes of gameplay.

So what does the game have to offer. Well the world is huge and you can cause tons of chaos in it by destroying objects killing people and doing crazy stunts like grapling your way up to the highest building and jumping off trying to time that parachute deploy just right.

After enjoying yourself with the crazy parts of the game you start taking on missions and eventually seeing more and more flaws in the game. The poor acting, the linear missions, the autotargeting system that takes away any pleasure of killing in the game. Also i absolutely hate the fact that only certain buildings can be destroyed. Also the collision is disastrous. I tried running a car full speed into a building and the only thing i got was a dented hood. Other stuff like planes and motorcycles pretty much explode on nearly any collision. Another annoying thing was the control and also the control configuration screen. I found it very annoying that i had to use X as the car handbrake by default. So being used to having space i switched the parachute deploy key to X and car handbrake to SPACE. Starting to play again i ended up having to jump by pressing X because apparently the jump/parachute key had been modified by foot as well.

I can't stop comparing this game to mercenaries 2 because of the atmosphere and all, but by doing so i see more and more flaws and how it's just a very poor ripoff of a good game.
