Homefront

[Nickson]

from what I've seen the graphics look pap.




I'm out.

Yah same here. Doesnt look like anything special from the videos.

 

[Rob_]

Graphics arent great but online is brilliant.

Got tanks, humvees and helis etc like BF2 does. Maps are massive too.

 

[richy22]

I want it..but I dont want it at £35 thank you.

Getting average reviews on metacritic

[chowiekid]

some of the uploads on youtube make it look pretty good... some dont, think ill buy and make up my own mind

 

[Rob_]

Really enjoying the multiplayer now.

32 player maps and theres f all lag. Dedicated servers FTW.

Maps are massive like bf2.

Heres a good video

 

[Edit]

I'm really enjoying the single player on this.

 

[Adam]

Got my copy yesterday from Bee.com and its great. The servers were a little up and down at first but thats to be expected as its technically wasn't released.
Its great having a dedicated server, bye bye lag

 

[Munson]

Campaigns FTW. Can't stand multiplayer these days. It used to be great fun but it's been ruined by children, and all these f**king pathetic reward and ranking systems.

 

[sargey]

Acquired this last night.

Played 10 mins of single player.

Played 15 mins of multiplayer.

Turned off.

 

[Sym0n]

I'm still really enjoying it, although changing the level to Guerilla last night on SP was a mistake LOL. I'll be dropping that back down!

Once the server issues are sorted I'm going to rinse MP, the few games I have had on it have been immense. Just once again annoyed that another FPS MP game has been released without a FFA mode!

 

[Cliotoby]

Doesnt blow my horn really. Not going to play multiplayer as Im sick of playing against people who hack and little kids. And people who are better than me.

Graphics doesnt look amazing really. Reminds of of a game made by EA a bit like MOH.

 

[Kris86]

ad you playing this on PS3/xbox or pc?

 

[Reev]

Campaigns FTW. Can't stand multiplayer these days.

+ motherfucking 1

 

[Cliotoby]

PC.

 

[Sym0n]

360.

 

[The Hoff]

Just me or does this look fking terrible?

 

[Fergie127]

Agreed.
The video posted above looks s**t piece.

 

[Goodj]

reminds me of Warhawk..... which i think I might just start playing again instead of buying this.

 

[Adam]

LOL can anyone actually get into a game tonight??

 

[Pint]

Picked this up today. My internet has been down most of the day so not got online yet. Working through the single player currently. I want a goliath! Can tell im near completion of SP though.

 

[Sym0n]

I can get a game, just not with the people I want to lol. Well annoying, first night we all got it we got in with no problems but now it's just beacon errors or not enough slots. THQ have fucked up, doesn't look like they expected the amount of take up this game would get and the servers are massively over capacity.

[ilovewilly]

How does this compare to battlefield bad company 2?

In all fairness, unless it's better, I can't see point in paying full price for it now.

 

[Sym0n]

I'd say they are very similiar except that BFBC2 got boring as s**t really quickly, this could also happen to HF if THQ don't hurry up and fix MP as well as adding some new MP gametypes.

 

[Pint]

Anyone else gutting issues with it freezing constantly? Doing my head in!

Good game when it runs smooth though.

 

[Sym0n]

Not had that yet, I am getting dog s**t connections to the server at the minute though and an ass load of lag resulting in magic bullets.

 

[Sym0n]

Bored of this now and all the f**king problems with it, it manages to make Black Ops look like it was coded well. Trading it in today at Game and getting Crysis 2 for £4.99. I only paid £28 for it so not too bad.

Game offer expires on 31st btw.

 

[Adam]

Has there not been a patch update yet?

 

[Sym0n]

Nope. THQ/KAOS claim to have made a change to the servers but if they have I'm not noticing it being any better, if anything it's worse as I'm now getting lagged to death. They've fucked up so badly with this game, it could have been epic but sadly it's just yet another game that's been put out for sale without the proper amount of testing.

At least if Crysis 2 is a pile of w**k I can go s**t through Crytek's letter box lol.

 

[kev182cup]

I've just bought this. Downloading something now. From the comments above I wish I hadn't. Lol

 

[kev182cup]

been playing online a few hours and wow the game is awesome the sounds with my headset are unreal. i was right near a tank so i emp grenaded it and a team member rpg'd it and BOOOOOM right next to me. its alot like battlefield so im used to the way you have to play ie complete opposite to COD. havent been in a chopper yet, tried a humvee but there a waste of time. so far so good.

 

[SharkyUK]

I'm not sure how many folks are left working on patches, etc. with Homefront seeing as they (yesterday) laid off most of the team that worked on it...

 

[Pint]

Really living this now. Not frustrating like BO. Most of the problems seem to have gone without a patch coming out either.

 

[Sym0n]

Most of the problems seem to have gone without a patch coming out either.

Nar, it's probably that most of the people that bought it have now got rid of it so the server load is a hellalot lower than it was and their Spectrum ZX servers can finally cope lol.

 

[kev182cup]

Sometimes it just puts me in intermission lobbies for ages and people just leave and I never get a game. This happen to anyone else?

 

[Pint]

I get that sometimes too kev but I just leave and re enter another lobby and soon get in a full game. What mode do you play?

 

[kev182cup]

I get that sometimes too kev but I just leave and re enter another lobby and soon get in a full game. What mode do you play?

I've left and gone into other lobbies, it either does the same or if I'm lucky puts me in a game that's already started.
I've only played TDM and the 1 where you capture the flags and move up the map like bc2. Tried others but it's never let me in : s.

 

[Pint]

I only played ground control. Might try that commander one though.

 

[richy22]

I "acquired" this a while ago for my special xbox. Sat down to finally play it today and a few hours later I had completed it. What a loss of s**t glad I didn't pay good money for it.

 

[word_easy]

I downloaded this a while ago for my modifed xbox. Sat down to finally play it today and a few hours later I had completed it. What a loss of s**t glad I didn't pay good money for it.

Nice
