No Story, No Good!
The Bad: No story, Unstable Servers, Poor weapon play, Few Maps, no customisation, no online lobby, capture the flag is the only game mode.
This game is a joke and shouldn't even be considered to fans of FPS's. i'll start with the good seeming there is very little, the graphics are good and look sharp, and characters look detailed. The Spells and Gadgets are very cool, teleporting, turning to smoke, seeing through walls, its all there and its all fun to play around with.
Now the bad. Absolutely no storyline what so ever, this is just stupid, i got asked what the game was about the other day, i replied...magic. This game may have got above a 6 if it had a story mode, but sadly, your stuck with capture the flag. Whats the most annoying about this game is the servers, they are constantly laggy and unfair and by far the worst ive ever seen in a game. At times you can unload a whole mag into a bad guy and he doesnt die, he turns around and shoots you once you drop to the flow, this is ridiculous. I was once playing and all of a sudden the game said (to everyone) "Unable to connect to server", then we were all sat there for at least 5 minutes waiting for it to sync itself. Alot of the time the games are so laggy they are next to unplayable. By hosting a private match this does get rid of the problem, but unfortunately achievements cannot be unlocked through private matches (nor can they be unlocked in solo matches offline).
The weapon play on this game sucks, there is only one gun that can do a 1 hit kill and that is a sniper rifle shot to the head (and this doesnt even work on dwarfs!!!), you are left shooting bullets upon bullets into a guy before they die, then when you do die, thats it, you can get resurrected but there are no respawns. There is also only a few guns to choose from, these are; Pistol, SMG, Rifle, Sniper Rifle, Minigun and Rocket Launcher. There are only (if i remember correctly) 9 maps in this game, this is a joke, if your going to make a game purely based on capture the flag, youve gotta have at least double that amount of maps.
There is also no customisation for your character, so your left looking the same as all the same species in your group.
There is no online lobby in this game, you basically either make a private game or join a public game, you cannot select from a list on which game to join, so most of the time you join a server thats not based in your country so your at a disadvantage as you are likely to experience lag.
Finally the game itself...capture the flag. This is all the game is, there are 3 game types, Extraction, Attrition and Raid. Extraction is where both sides go after the flag, Raid is where one side defends the flag where the other goes after it, and attrition is basically an elimination match. No death matches here, only 2 teams per game, no every man for them self games, no respawns, nothing.
In conclusion, this game is a poor excuse for a 360 title and there are better multiplayer games out there, all that seperates this game from another plain online shooter is the magic, but that isnt worth the price of the game to use. It may keep you entertained for a few hours (maybe more if your in the US as that is where most of the servers seem to be), but all in all, a pointless buy.
