Hope its not TO realistic, f**k sitting in my room for 5 days waiting for that one shot

Has potential though

 

[Brazo]

Yes I would like a sniper game but the sniping would need to be up to Battlefield BC2 std's and not sure if that would happen, if so then

 

[Darren S]

Definitely has potential. However, it would have to be single-player only. Imagine that in multi-player where you had 4v4 snipers trying to take each other out. Not only would the game last for hours, but you could be 2ft from the opposition and not know it!

Oh, and no mention of a PC version? A decent one would eat and s**t-out that jungle landscape without breaking a sweat. Bloody developers.....

Its bad enough in MW2 when there are to many campers!

 

[JB]

Anyone play Joint Operations on the PC? That had pretty good sniping from what I remember, you could lase the target first to get a accurate distance then dial that in on your scope.

[sean_d]

Does look, I'll be getting this

 

[Munson]

Really looking forward to this IIRC. Should fill a gap between FEAR 2 and Crysis 2. I really do need to continue with FEAR 2.

[saltyhair81]

don't bother, it's a waste of time - uses the chrome 4 engine and looks quite pretty but the AI and animation is horrific. for a rail shooter it's about as well put together as a Clio

 

[Griff]

It's absolutely dire..

 

[Gareth]

fails to install correctly on mine anyway, direct x doesn't want to know, wish I hadn't bothered now

 

[Woodentop]

This has some of the worst AI i have ever seen.... What a shame.

 

[RDH]

Any quickscoping?

 

[The Ironist]

Just ordered this for 360 hopefully not as crap as people are saying....it was cheap anyway

 

[Brand86]

^ Let us know what you think!

Is it that bad?

No real excuse for making bad AI these days. They were doing pretty good back in 2005 with F.E.A.R.

Love to see some clips of just how bad it is. The last truly shocking one I played was the original Just Cause. Two guards in watchtowers seperated by about 15ft in games terms. Empty a clip into the bloke on the left from cover and the bloke on the right doesn't even flinch. Mmmm. Ok.
