Incidentally, the major sticking point for a lot of people is the AI. Apparently it's VASTLY improved, so that not only are enemy scrub soldiers a real threat even on normal level, but your allies will now routinely rack up as many kills as you do (and in a general sense, you won't tally NEARLY as many kills as you do in DW3). Some people dislike the idea that you can no longer wade into hordes of enemies, do one combo and slaughter every sucker in sight, but others welcome the new challenge.



I welcome that change. DW3 felt less like a massive all out battle between armies and more like mobs of soldiers mulling around until they just happen to wander into an enemy mob. Upon which they'd both circle each other for hours and occaisonally land a blow or two. Your character was such a deciding force because you were the only one that would GO TO WHERE YOU ARE NEEDED.

Other minor issues I'd like to see addressed:

Grace periods removed- That annoying aspect of videogames where after taking a hit, the character/enemy is immune to attack for awhile, usually in the form of invinsibility for a few seconds (signalled by rapidly blinking) or getting knocked down and being unable to attack them until they decide to get up (HE'S PRONE AND DEFENSELESS FINISH THE MOTHERFUCKER!).

Better juggling- Can we have something faster and flashier than DW3's repeating uppercut swing over and over and over?
