While many aspects to the game are fun and entertaining, the few that suck are on such scale it ruins the entire game.
Well this isn't your game!
From the start you are given the choice of three different characters to play as, and each character has their own special abilities! However the only ability worth using belongs to 'Mattias Nilsson" who boosts a faster health regeneration.
The story of Mattias is fairly lame. The bottom line is this. You get a job from a client, the client doesn't pay you and shoots you in the rear, you get revenge.
Yeah... that's the extent of it. However the story isn't the only thing lacking in this game; but key mechanics are also askew.
You will quickly discover that out of all the hundreds of weapons in the game at your disposal, the most effective way to kill your enemies is just run up and punch them for a 1hit kill. The AI are horrendous, most of them will allow you to walk around their base and won't lay a finger on you.
About the only working enemy AI involves vehicles, they will attack vehicles that are not theirs, even if you are not in them. It also seems that only enemy vehicles work properly at hunting you down.
Combat and AI aside the game STILL isn't done bringing down your spirit. The missions in the game are not only repetitive, but some of them extremely frustrating.
The 'racing' missions are often borderline unbeatable due to crippling bugs and horrible vehicles. Most of the races have HARSH time limits for no apparent reason, and the cars you are forced to use are incredibly hard to drive.
Cars in races often accelerate to insane speeds at the tap of a key, and have nonexistant handling. I have had cars I'm in Noclip through buildings, and slide up and over mountains while breaking and turning at even low speeds.
Boat races are even worse. Most courses forcing you to make extremely tight turns through incredibly dangerous courses, for once again, no apparent reason. Such as driving through a river full of mines and RPG users, just because. However the worse offender is the jetski. The jetski has virtually no ability to turn at any speed, and can often cause you to fail a mission off the bat. Having 8 seconds to get to a gate right in front of you, and sometimes the jetski is facing the wrong way, which takes about 20 seconds to get it to finally turn around.
Then there are the "custom" vehicles. This is the biggest lie in the game, nothing about them is custom. They are just a random mix of vehicles, predesignated with absolutely no customization on your part. Most of the vehicles are hard to unlock and offer no reason TO unlock. One of the best vehicles is a monster truck that can jump in the air, and you NEVER need this, it usually makes this worse.
Overall this game is terrible. Horrible AI, Horrible Combat, Horrible bugs, and Horrible vehicles. The game has SOME fun to it, but not enough to pay for itself. Rent this game, don't waste cash on it.
As for the bugs, Pandemic couldn't even make hair work properly in this game, so imagine what ELSE doesn't work right.
