Worms for wii? God awful desine!

What is wrong with this? Well lets count down!

1. They simplified the gameplay down so that you can see exactly where you're aiming. This removes a HUGE part of worms skill and was no doubt done for nintendo's "we love the non gamer" crowd.

2. The graphics look awful for a 2d game. I don't care if this is the wii or not, you should have at least good looking 2d games. IGN asked before we saw shots of it "will it be 3d or stick to the high detail 2d", No wonder they studderd to answer it, they have neither high detail 2d or 3d.

3. Blurry backround. Rememeber that, in worms open warfare for ds? The backrounds got it a huge penalty becuase they were so freakin blurry. Where it was pretty clear on psp, the ds version had an extremely blurry look. So worms got a huge improvement in ds version with better gameplay controls and non blurry backrounds. So why in the world did they feel those blurry low res backrounds were due for a come back?

4.

IGN: Worms: A Space Oddity is an ideal candidate to make use of a Wii headset for voice-over-IP. Have you thought about pushing for a headset from Nintendo or about using Wii's USB slots for compatibility with a third party headset?

Gilbert:Unfortunately, due to time constraints and no known plans from Nintendo to support this functionality, it wasn't really an option in Worms: A Space Oddity. It certainly would be a nice addition to online gameplay. However, there is a text based chat option implemented which allows players to communicate using pre-defined text strings when communicating with random players and text input for friends so users can still taunt their opponents!

Oh great, another online without any chat interface! Is nitnendo doing this on purpose or do third party developers think "You know what would be fun online? We include random battles, friends codes, and oh? Talking to the person you're fighting? Nahhhhh, that's gatta go!"

I don't care at all on your opinion since I'm looking to it.

Then why did you post here? If you're not even going to read my points and thread and consider anything at all before you blindly fanboyishly buy stuff, then why did you bother posting here?

I've read your points and I say you critisize too much. You can't critique a game before it isn't even out yet. Granted, they are some games that look like crap when they are first announced, but not this one. It looks promising.The image means nothing, it could be an early built or a compressed image, wait till you see videos of it. As for the voice chat, with WC24, they could always add an update that will allow to uses an head set later on. There's an head set on the ds, why not the Wii?

Cry moar. :|

Quit whining, buy the game or get over it.

WTF is that about, you can see where you are aiming? That sucks2good2betrue

Yeah that does concern me. The whole point of worms is to kinda learn where to aim, if they show you where to aim then no one will miss. It's too early to tell though at this time, i guess we will just see what happens.

I suppose people don't like opinions on these boards if they don't agree with them. :|nintendofreak_2

It's not opinions that people don't like here, it's complains. We have to many of 'hem. People critisize agame without even trying it. they complain about GS scores. etc. It's annoying

You might need to make a motion with the wiimote and nunchuck to gauge you speed and distance. This would negate seeing where it COULD go.

Yeah that's what i've been thinking. Im thinking the aim line is to help with the motion or something. Like i said though we will have to wait and see :)

maybe, that would be better

You could at least wait for an accurate screenshot of the game, not that piece of crap image. Not to mention that the article you quoted stated that the game does have a chat function; in fact it's the first wii game to have one.the_leet_kid

They are pre-set messages and Madden already has them.

I have played worms and these changes are unbearable to the original desine and follow far too much of what nintendo has been overly critisised of.

No, it has a coutner strike like "GO GO GO, fire in the hole, take cover, enemy down" preset messeges you can send.

To the people critisising me about critisising a game I havn't played, as said above, I played enough of worms to know this is not the defining worms game to buy this year.

But you haven't played this one. Don't make any immediate answers, that you say it will 100% suck. No one knows, you never know, it could be great. Not trying to bash on ya, just saying.

The Design is okay, nothing special.Haziqonfire

ROFL

I don't or hate for the feel of the flame, when a game shows lazy-ness or bad desine, I just spread the word of that. Take this how you want, I just feel they could evolve worms in much mroe productive ways than what this is looking like so far.

then dont get it if you dont like it...grafkhun

Is that what you tell reviewers when theyreview the game? "Well why give it a 5.0, you didn't have to buy it!"

And sorry about my spelling, but if that's the best retort you can get, why are you posting here?

They invented something called Blockbuster quite a while ago. Gamefly also came out too :|.

No,they should be aimed for sucess, but if the game flops, it flops.
