Long, Shuddering Spurt Over Druids wrote: So why not play on medium? Wading through hordes of the basic droids is a cakewalk, but fighting anything else is a pain due to the massive amounts of ammo everything takes to kill. I ended up just stabbing everyone with a knife, which is much quicker than emptying an entire machinegun belt into them. Which leads to my complaint about the bizzare melee attacks. When the machinegun is equipped, your melee attack is a knife that pops out of your wrist. When any other weapon is equipped, your melee attack is hitting them with the butt of your weapon for one-quarter the damage of the knife? Just use the fucking knife! Is this some arbitrary balancing scheme? I feel no guilt playing on medium instead of hard after the 20th time they sent pairs of super droids against me without supplying me with anything but machinegun ammo. Then the fun factor dropped considerably on the dead spaceship (haunted spaceship! Let's split up!) level where the toughest enemies faced yet by the elite delta squad were.....scavenger droids and walking walruses with knives? The buildup of some spooky shit going on on this ship, and it turns out to be fucking walkruses with swords? Fuck it, if the game's not going to bother trying why should I? Have they figured out yet that fighting nothing but keystone robots that say "ow!" all the time kind of robs combat of its impact and rush? The only time I'd say that I was really having fun was when you pass through the bug's hatchery and you could start shooting eggs and start stepping on and slaughtering all the babies. Then all the faggot flying adult bugs would get pissed and swarm you with their esoteric spears that are probably a part of a long celebrated tradition of their unique culture tha- FUCKING SPLAT! * Wrist knife to your fucking FACE while my buddies kick the others to the ground and off them point blank. Fuck yes I AM a jackbooted thug of the Empir-....errrrr, Republic. But then it was back to boring situations and enemies with the unwitty banter for 12 year olds of my squadmates :( * The visor splatter and electronic wiper was neat the first few times it happened, not after the 50th time. |
