This game really need some polish. I cant believe a game that under development for years comes out so buggy.And this game also a resource hog. I have a save game that every time i load it will be different. One of the time the enemies suddenly shoot you and another time they unaware i'm there.Load time is better for me compared to bf2. Sound is still ok.. sometimes it really makes up the creepy atmosphere.One thing i dont like is when I throw the bolt to the ground, no sound is made from it. This makes me feel like something is missing from the game. The graphics engine really need to be optimized. I feel like watching slide show more than playing a game.
Btw, the money is something like waste paper in the game. Not much thing u can buy from those people.Most of the special items are hidden throughout the map.
I am waitng for the patch to fix this buggy game so that i can enjoy it again.
