First off, before you go around telling people to "learn some co-ordination skills" Think to yourself first, do you really think we're all new the the keyboard and mouse? I've been gaming for 15 years now.. My co-ordination is just fine.. now get off your high horse and look at the controls for what they are. If you have auto transition on, walking down a narrow hallway or stair case is extremely problematic. Not only that, but when you DO want to use it, there is the slightest lag in the camera transition. If that was a bit faster it would be manageable. Now, on the other side of the fence, if you have transition set to OFF, half the time it doesn't even give you the context sensitive button press to mount onto said wall. AvP2 that came out in 2001 had PERFECT controls for the aliens, this release of the franchise is slacking big time in that respect. HA! now that is a hypocritical statement, AvP2 is a fantastic game that earned its review score, but the Alien was completely bland in that game, the pounce allowed the Alien to jump.....anywhere! I did not see that occur in the films, they usually wall hopped in the films like you can do in this game if you learn to utilise the controls properly, once you do you will realise just how fun it is. On the other hand, experience means very little in terms of the overall skill of a player but I am not willing to argue that point. Also, since when do controls score the game overall? First off, that's not hypocritical at all. I own both games, I enjoy both games. I've played both extensively, and the controls in avp2 work better then AvP, simple as that. I enjoyed playing the alien in avp2. I've never once said that avp2 didn't deserve its score. I'm making statements based on something I've played, I think you need to open a dictionary and read the definition of "Hypocritical".[QUOTE="fm_coyote"][QUOTE="KorruptRaiden"] The controls are PERFECTLY FINE! there is no problem with them, it is so easy to play and it cannot possibly be easier, if you find the alien hard to control then go learn some co-ordination skills (message to everyone), your crosshair even tells you where the ground is -__-. The graphics are above average, environments are great really, equivalent to cod, graphics do not make a game complete though. The story is not that interesting, rather a cliche, but the campaigns are fun and intense if anything.
Outdated? no! How are cod,halo, bf and all those other shooters not outdated then? only because they have perks, aimdown sights, etc? not much really, stupid point if anything. IF ANYTHING this game brings something fresh to the gaming industry, it is an FPS which does not rely completely on gun kills or 1 shot knife kills (LOL!!! cos you drop dead from a knife instantly hey!), this game is different, very different, the gameplay is exciting, in the game lobbies I hear people screaming from fear, yelling out of joy, etc. In other FPS's I hear insults over who is better, that says a lot.
This game is a fresh break from the mainstream fps group, that has pretty much saved fps gaming for myself. If you cannot accept change, then do not bother discussing this game. Kudos to Rebellin deserved an 8.5-9.KorruptRaiden
