Unreal 2 out now

[smilodon]

I was getting a lot of whistling and random noise...specially when sound changed i.e a new music score started.

I really liked the idea of the Atlantis as your base, although making Aria (or whatever her name is) semi nude was a bit sad.

I think the problem is that the game has been SO hyped that I was expecting a masterpiece. As soon as you see the graphics and cut scenes this just adds to the idea that you're about to play something really special. And then the game turns out to be just reasonably good (and very short).

The sweet graphics only go so far though. There's some really ghastly clipping , invisible barriers to hem you into the playing area , terrible collision awareness, and really piss poor AI. GFC is right the game is very linear - mission update, land on planet, go "Ohhhh over the graphics, kill lots of baddies, kill a level boss, back to ship, repeat x 10. The End.

5/10  :cry:   Role on Splinter Cell

Dont talk about my bird like that....I think were in love :blush:



As you can see they have some nice shapes....


The 41 drivers worked a treat well done SS

There is something very sad about getting the hots for a computer character....but I suppose if you are going down that road she's about as fit as they come (pun intended).

I also found the rag doll feature that stops the aweful dead body poking half out into space when it  drops. Doesn't stop all the clipping but it's an improvement

/me puts on his grumpy hat

Did this game even get playtested?!?

First major bug was a door on the first level where it had become sepurated from the glass, this ment that when the door was closed the frame blocked you, when the door was "open" an unbreakable pane of glass slid into your path    clipping generaly sux


The prize winner of bastard bug from hell is on the (3rd) defence mission involving the techy bloke and the broken computer console, i fought off the first 2 waves then awaitied the third....
and waited......
and waited......

Having sat waiting for something to happen after 20 mins i quite pissed off and will have to find a level skip cheat :evil:

/me prays for Doom III

The only bug I've found is the grenade launcher animation, which is a constant. I've gotten up to the 7th artifact thing without any majour level bugs, althout the launcher animation is just lazy :/

Dispite some of the problems (and the crap humor) Unreal 2 is the best single player experiance I've had since half life.

I'd have to say that Medal of Honor is a far better game. Enemy AI is really challenging and just an all round more polished game. But at the end of the day it's down to personal opinion. No more crashes since turning EAX off (which begs the question - why did they ever let you turn it on?)

Having just completed it, I can say that its too short and the ending is poo...

off

It's such a dire game that it's best to uninstall it altogether, then the EAX problem becomes mute!

Although the enemy AI is astounding.

AI script begin
1. If player seen then run at player - fire primary weapon
2. If player returns fire - zig zag
end of script
