Why do people like this? Do they seriously enjoy playing a game where you first run over 100 meters to get to position to defend, then get killed instantly by a guy that you never see, but he allways sees you.
Maps are badly designed, look at Iwo Jima and understand what I mean.
Also, flamethrower and knee mortar are sweet, but unnecessary.
Every single time I quit the game because it's not fun. Games are supposed to be fun and this game fails badly. Even Modern Warfare games are enjoyable.
I hope Rising Storm fails. And luckly it will because games like Cod: Ghost and Battlefield 4 are coming later this year.
Watch out we have a COD fan boy in here... Learn to have the skill to know who shot you and get kills. In reality you would not see your enemy shooting you either. Also Tomahawk and Nuke is unnecessary on an infantry fight yet those don't bother you. And saying that you hate to go to a place just to get shot makes me wonder why A) you play FH2 and B) you play FPS genre at all...
This game is awesome. Played only a few rounds but did quite well in it. Maybe i will buy it later on this year.
I don't play COD games so shut the fuck up.
For your questions: A) I play FH2 because I enjoy it. Realism and gameplay are well balanced. I think that too much realism kills the gameplay or gamejoy and that has happend on RO2/Rising storm. And that is my opinion.
B) I play FPS genre because they are mostly enjoyable.
Perhaps I was too harsh and didn't say any positive things in my review (like overall visual look and Pacific theme), but they won't change the fact that I just didn't enjoy it. Deal with it. You guys don't have to go on a crusade of jihad against me just because I don't like things that you do.
And let's make this flamethrower issue a bit more cleared. My opinion is, that yanks have better firepower aspect against japs like Garand, Bar, M1919, M1 carbine and even a shotgun. Do they seriously need a flamethrower to unbalance factors even more? Yes flamethrower was a common thing on late pacific, but is it a reason place it there? Japanese have only two spawnable automatic weapons, Type 100 smg and Type 99 lmg (or 96, I don't remember).
This is real, Japanese didn't have that great infantry firepower when compared to yanks IRL. But we are talking about a video game here, there should be a balancing factor that makes US and japanese factions equal, but I didn't see any and knee mortar can't be counted as a proper balancer.
I read from the statistics page that US can unlock japanese weapons and vice versa, but does it balance anything? Hardly. If you people know a certain something that makes both sides equal and balanced then please tell me.
As a summary: I just don't like the game. Deal with it. If you don't, then build a time machine and go to the late 1930's Germany or Soviet Union, in there you will find more likes of you that don't disagreeing opinions.
PS. 5hitm4k3r: Are you saying that I should like Rising storm and support it just because Toddel was among the people making it? THAT is dumb.
