Oh. You were joking. Sorry.

Humor/sarcasm doesn't really translate through text all that well.

Indeed, needs more blue text or a smiley of some sort.

The PC version is completely broken.

. The mouse is floaty as hell
. There is a massive amount of bloom you cant change
. It runs like shit
. There is bugs with the keyboard input so if you press Left or Right you move really slowly and jerkly
. There are times when you cant control at all using the keyboard
. The FOV is wrong so it looks like a cropped picture
. Many, Many more

If you have played FarCry2, chuck some zombies and break the game a bit more and you know what your in for.

They need to get updating, and fast.


File to fix the FOV without having to stuff about with files.

I tried it at a netshop. I felt nauseous with the camera. No amount of mouse sensitivity tweaking made it better. I don't know if that's the point of the game, to be so clumsy at combat and moving around, but if it is, then I have no intention of trying the game further.

The game itself is really fun, it is just overtly broken on the PC (Don't know about consoles), with some FOV, Bloom, Mouse Tweaking it is much more enjoyable, but I should not have to fuck around so much.

I may rent it from GameFly sometime since I'm still unsure after hearing mixed reviews/opinions from other friends and my overall interest in general.
