Did anyone ever get into this FPS game? I got it a long time ago when Steam had it on sale. I've never really played it and was wondering if it was worth the time.

The thought was good.

The execution was terrible.

The hardware support was terrible.

The servers were terrible.

The single player was terrible.

The guns were terrible.

The skill tree was terrible.

The parkour was fun, but useless.

The maps were terrible.

The balance was terrible.

The weight classes were terrible.

Yknow what, lets just say the whole thing was terrible.

I spent $60 on it.

I was truly exited for the game at release. The gameplay looked fun and solid in the trailers and E3 presentations.

But when it came out... it was shit.

They even acknowledged it by giving away the first DLC for free as an apology.

But they gave it away for like, a week, without any big notice, and nobody picked it up because nobody played the game.

So in the end, they shot themselves in the foot, again, because they were hoping the DLC would bring back the launch players. It didn't because all it brought was more clothes and a few extra maps I think. Maybe a couple more levels to the pointless level system.

Gotcha, I got the game and all the DLC for 5 bucks. So maybe it wasn't totally worthless.

Oh no, it's worthless. The game was failing at release and has been out for a while now.

The only people playing it are the niche Splash Damage players, and the people who are easily impressed by the parkour.

The online play was just so bad! >.> I played it for about an hour tops. I just couldn't take any more. :(

Everyone has their own opinions of things though. I don't mean to insult people who like it. lol

As payback... I enjoy Nickelback... and everyone hates that....

I think I played about 70 hours or so. Completed all campaigns on hard, all challenges to 3 stars, and played a ton just for fun. Really should get back into it.

To each thier own and all that jazz.

That said, I loathed that I wasted money on it.
I bought it upon release for many of the same reasons as wolf, played it for an hour, got confused by why the hell this felt like a chinese knockoff of what the game promised to be. Turned off my xbox, went for a walk in the woods to ponder this canundrum, then returned home for a second round.
After another hour or so of trying to get my head around how godawful terrible this game was I put it back in its case, back on my game shelf, and returned it the next day. Best decision I have ever made.

It is perfectly acceptable to fear and admire a being you could not possibly understand.
