The Outfit Multiplayer Demo
I finished about 2 hours of playing The Outfit multiplayer demo last night, overall I think it's a pretty fun game, the multiplayer portion anyway. Most of the other players were happy with the game and only a few comments were negative and mostly because the game just isn't their "style" rather than actual complaints of the game.
My Likes:
This game will probably get lost in this month's releases what with Oblivion and GR:AW but I may still consider it later on next month.
My Likes:
- decent teamplay type game, the team that is organized and actually communicates totally dominates, if you play with a bunch of idiots you're gonna get your butt handed to you
- graphics are fine and occasionally funny as hell..example: driving a jeep with my squad, figure "let me run over this enemy unit" he moves out of the way and lobs a grenade into the passenger seat. BOOM, myself and the rest of my squad (and our bodies) go flying
- network code seems stable and relatively lag free
- gameplay isn't new but is fun and nicely balanced, little downtime means you're almost always in the action
- being able to destroy pretty much everything is great, being able to snipe people driving a tractor is pretty fun
- Ron Pearlman doing voice overs
- occasional lobby bugs seem to boot people from games prior to start
- would prefer more feedback on when your shots hit enemy players, when you're getting hit by enemy players
- still on the fence on the auto-aim, kinda trivializes shooting and over simplifies the game, not a game breaker but I hope that it's possible to disable auto-aim in the retail version
- some of the vehicles are difficult to control, again not a deal breaker but I wonder if it's their idea of "balance" to make the most deadly items the most difficult to pilot
This game will probably get lost in this month's releases what with Oblivion and GR:AW but I may still consider it later on next month.
