New Preview from Strategy Informer

[Ossius]

The problem I see is this:

People point out no physics, or "bad" graphics, when Call of duty has no barely any physics compared to RO2, and looks about the same, yet its considered by most a superior game.

Journalist bias imo.

Mmmm - A pretty uninformed preview to be honest..Was this guy actaully at prague...
As for the statement "upcoming titles like Modern Warfare 3 and Battlefield 3 will look better".

What relevance has that to do with the game your previewing by comparing it to another two unreleased games?
Its like saying "This is a nice car but there should be better ones coming along"

But I need a new car now..lol..not later..and that statement tells me nothing about this car..

The most accurate part of this preview was this line "We know this preview is a little thin on actual details"...lol..another 10mins of my life wasted...

The intro to the article was a bit lame. The rest... ehhh

The only shame here is that Tripwire has no plans to bring this game to the console audience currently- personally I think this hardcore approach is sorely missing from the console-FPS market at the moment.

It's sorely missing because consoles don't lend themselves well (no, at all) to realism.

You want to know something? Why is it when a PC game is exclusive everyone whines and complains that it's not fair, but when a console game is exclusive and we say something all that we are met with is "Go buy a console noob". What the **** is that?

The whole article was really poorly written and boring, regardless of his bias. It reads as though my 15 year old sister wrote it as an English assignment...

I'm not gonna bother reading it... that one paragraph they did before was a bad enough.

I don't understand how RO2 is ugly. The work put into textures and level of detail is outstanding and there's no bloom or blur ruining anything.

 

[Mahnsikir]

Hah, they've edited that first paragraph slightly to make it a bit less unprofessional...

I guess it is good (for TWI less so the punters) to see someone's view who obviously isn't a fan/familiar with the original but still their writing style leaves a bit to be desired.

instead of an overpriced DLC lego that was chopped into pieces b4 the game came out.

15 dollar map packs anybody

Sure, MW3 may have that "more realistic than real life" look to it where they throw post processing effects in your face, but RO2 actually looks like a real environment.

Modern Battlefield 3 is a Micheal Bay movie where every "visual," explosion and cutscene is trivial and means nothing, RO:2 is an artistic masterpiece.
