Princess Pounder: Enemies are very agressive and mobile. So shooting them in the legs and knocking them down is definitely a good move.
RKXXXXVII: Tell me Moar.
Princess Pounder: But they swarm a lot, so distracting them by shooting one in the head and disabling its friend/foe system can distract them enough for a good grenade.
RKXXXXVII updates his binarydomain.txt
Princess Pounder: Your health isn't the biggest either, so no rambo rushes here.
RKXXXXVII: now final verdict
RKXXXXVII: better than ME3?
Princess Pounder: As a shooter ? Absolutely.
RKXXXXVII: YEAH
RKXXXXVII presses X
RKXXXXVII: FUCK
RKXXXXVII: YEAH
Princess Pounder: In terms of dialogue, well....its more entertaining. I'll leave it at that.
RKXXXXVII: Good good.
Princess Pounder: Big Bo is a stereotypical big black soldier.
RKXXXXVII: I can stop participating in the co op events.
Princess Pounder: So stereotypical that I couldn't understand a few of his jive sentences.
There's a sale. Amazon's selling a Steam key for $36.I may be a sucker for this sort of stuff. When it falls down to at least $30. Gonna look for sales now...
EDIT: no sales
Oh shit, there's an even better sale. $20 from CD Keys Here (They're reputable, I've bought a few keys from them) and it's region free.

$20 Risen 2, too. Requires Russianfaggotry though.
From what I gather the enemies and shooting mechanics and encounter design are better than ME3. It also has silly dumb dialog but doesn't take itself nearly as seriously. It's still a cover popamole shooter, but as cover popamole shooters go it's higher quality. Still haven't gotten around to trying the demo so this is secondhand information.how is this better than ME3?
never played both, but I must know
Yeah, eventually figured that out. Such a weirdly archaic I didn't expect it at all.Yo, ingame-menu, increase screen size should fix the cropped picture.
On the third difficulty the combat seemed fairly decent. You'd go down relatively fast but could pop out for short bursts well enough. The biggest issues I had with the demo was the enemy variety seemed pretty sparse and the environments weren't terribly interesting to fight in. Linear corridors with lows walls to sit behind. Both of these were issues in ME2 too though (Same damn mercenaries and robots for 90% of it, linear hallways with coverwalls) and the limited enemies of BD DID seem more interesting to fight. Demo just didn't leave enough of an impression on me to get me excited or all that interested in it.If any of the Mass Effect games are considered to have better combat, then in this game it must be fucking awful.
Will judge for myself upon install...
Yes, before I changed that, this was actually the first game ever where I got stuck in menu. Somehow couldn't return to previous page and had to shutdown the whole game.
