cu at ET, and forever ET 8)
anyway preordered
movement of the characters looks really unnatural.
"floating gun" when running looks just ridiculous.
player obivously aiming like a newb but i guess that is on purpose to not show that the hitreg is just bad (couldnt think of any other reason to demonstrate this random spray and pray).
People constantly standing out in the open while enemys just sit there and wait to be shot. I guess that as for many other game demos they wanted to show a representative clip of stuff that you can expect but it just looks so weird and artifical.
Tbh i didnt even finish it and i am quite glad that i did not pre-order.
I know that making a demo is not a cheap or easy to do, but still... demo would be nice. Maybe they are afraid?
But if you upload a video of how its gonna be there can be minor things in it (imo the shaking of the gun while running looks REALLY bad) but nothing like the bad aim being displayed. I mean what is that supposed to show us? That noobs can play the game? That aim does not matter? That it does not work properly?
And why is he always out in the open, there are 3 enemies in front of him and one shooting him from behind. Still there is no visible knockback and/or any other influences on him and he will stay alive for way too long. Then he is on the ground, 5 enemies around him and he can still just revive himself w/o them taking any actions...
all that stuff looks/feels just plain wrong and one has to wonder again: did the people in charge of the game ever actually play ET themselfs or were they handed a list of possible mechanics to add?
I think this game will sell... just because of advertising and it will be alive for few months, half a year maybe and thats all :). But lets hope there will be some nice competitions with a lot of money so "e-sport" will grow.
I was thinking about buying, but that game needs a serious makeover if it's intended for competetive gaming as well
