I agree with Mr Moe. Many of old TWI customers wouldn't complain if TWI would said that HoS is going to be the game completely different than RO:O. They said that RO2 will be true successor, game with improved gameplay, not changed completely. If I would know this, I wouldn't buy DDE for 35 euro, but get it from local store for 15 euro and safe money for Battlefield 3, where currently I enjoy public game more than in RO2. Funny fact: in BF3 you run upstairs/uphill slower than in fast-paced-codish RO2 and some other elements feel more slow paced.
A bit of shame that TWI wants to hear (and hopefully follow) our opinion now - not when they were developing RO2. Do you remember when community started discussion about unlocks, lack of sway, arcade elements, unrealistic gameplay, rare weapons (Mkb) and said that those are not going to work and will ruin the game?
But "wider audience" and CoD players were more important than us.
