Leaving the house to buy OPF-DR in about 10 minutes.
What a complete waste of money. Try it before you buy it. That's literally throwing money down the drain.
To expand on my earlier thoughts, after playing a bit more.
Yeah, um, apologies, there is no recoil after all. It's fucking terrible. Absolutely horrendous.
The switching weapons system is completely flawed, only allowing you to scroll through your selection whilst completely still (yes, SCROLL through, not actually select).
AI is dumb as fuck, with enemy squads splitting up completely. I have no idea why an enemy squad would want to split up into individual soldiers to fight - Fine spread out and flank, but these guys just go on their little wander shooting anything they see, no matter what.
Example of stupid AI: I was running down towards the radio tower to blow it up, the enemy sees us, they are behind cover (sandbags). So I engage... first thing they do? They make a run for it in open territory down the hill, leaving one of their guys holding the radio tower by himself. I mean, seriously.
You can sniper anything and everything as there is no recoil.
Graphics are average. For a game that has just been released, I would say below average. Model details are poor and unfinished and building are not nice at all.
Friendly AI is just as stupid, with one of them staying near the C4 charge I planted on the radio tower and getting injured in the process. Stupid stupid stupid.
Firefights are random, boring and shit. They consist of about 5 enemy AI, all dumb as fuck, running around or in the prone position firing at you. Of course, you've already spotted them by this point and shot them, ending the firefight in under 30 seconds. Vehicles are terrible. I need not go into more detail about them.
The only slightly nice thing is the command line that pops up to issue orders, and the ability to send artillery to places.
Not worth anyones time tbh.
What a shit year for gaming. MW2 better be worth it.
