In my experince people can say great things about a game, but if it's a bad game, people will notice.
I intend to write a positive review i may have bought in EA but i followed the game since its announcement and i anted to be a founder but i had fallen on hard times when that was an option so i couldn't. I Like shooters they arent my top game choice im more of an MMORPG, Multiplayer co-op RPG, or co-op shooter fan but i used to play tribes/AVP a lot with the flying frenchmen and the untrained monkeys so i have a healthy respect for a "good shooter" i played global agenda i still from time to time drop in on warframe and see what theyve done with the place ... i actually don't particualrly like more "arcade shooters" and as triibes got remade i like it less and less and i pretty much despise CoD for community and content. I have to say i genuinely enjoy the game and had i the chance to go back in time with my current situation and choose whether to found or not i probably would have even knowing whats happened. i played some Eve online and i know a bit about how its dev staff has made a game last a long time, and i have faith that survivors of that staff can indeed captain another game with a similar build structure to success. I thoroughly enjoyed being a part of the design process, i have programmed for MUDS back when text games on the internet was as cool as it got ... ive poke with other engines along the way usually in a supporting role. i also have a background in computer programming and object oriented programming specifically, my vocation however is IT hardware related and most of those skills have atrophied over the years. The game is already good solid fun, it has some frustrating bugs but sadly so does everything i want to play as it gets released early by tyrannical distributors, pushy execs, and the general move gaming has had towards instant gratification as opposed to stable long term mechanics. It feels like 40k, it smells like 40k, it sounds like 40k..... and i like it. theres things i would change ... i talk about them all the time but by and large its a decent shooter and most people who think previous games had no bugs are viewing through their nostalgia goggles. However good sir i Cannot condone you telling people to give positive reviews, reviews are you're opinion. People should indeed review it how they perceive the game. I would hope they would indeed review what is here but many features/bugs/etc. i find tolerable may be completely intolerable to other gamers. bE asked for an open development process and they got it ... if they don't like the results they should work to change perceptions if the negative perception is prevalent. I can see the whole process in abstract that put them in this place ... made them in-agile with game changes you can see it in how non compartmentalized thier ideas are and how much they bleed together in execution. Change will come slower than they think around every corner as they are trying to decode an recode a tangled mess of interwoven code that needs more separation and exclusion from its interaction with other things. There is definitely room for improvement and many people will feel more than others is required ... its their right to say so MOST especially if they have paid for the game within the context of bE saying lets be open here.
Uhuh, and my thoughts on the title are that I wouldn't be here if it weren't 40k. A bit of enjoyment at my end isn't enough for me to recommend buying an unfinished and buggy game.
I see the point of this thread. Lots of people enjoy the game but dont take the time to write a review about it. Negativity on the other hand is an active sport in human culture. Your just promoting that for the people who love this game and enjoy it, be counted in the list so that steam viewers understand its not a one sided argument.
