Yeh its a technique I was told about for teaching retarded kids. If you repeat stuff enough they might actually understand or form an actual opinion on the comment rather than making some totally off topic reply.

But thats another story.

Yeah, but seriously.

Mercs 2 really sucks!

I've been watching some videos and looking at some screenshots today, as well as flicking through the various reviews... I'd say the poor reviews are pretty consistent and accurate from what I've seen. The graphics look like a throwback to 2001 and the gameplay looks stale and hijacked in some sort of Grand Theft Auto-style hybrid mongrel disaster.

Will be avoiding this at all costs.

i think mercs 2 has its bad points, but it has its uniuqeness

why is this game so bad, because EA took pandemic over?

So is the game good or does it suck? Worth buying or just "obtaining" or not getting it at all?

because apparently graphics suck, the game is so alike to the first (if a bit shorter too) but tbh its amazing fun and with co-op included, you can have a blast with mates!!

They weren't kidding when they said dual core was a minimum requirement. I can't even get to the main menu without it locking up on my 2004 build.

It could have been a great game but it has serious issues. The controls feel like crap and you can't even increase the fov, not to mention the enormous amount of glitches, instability, etc..

Mercs 2 was one of the few games I haven't completed.....but still have no desire to play. It has good points but it's mostly bad. Like a chocolate chip cow paddy. Sure everyone likes chocolate chips but do you like them enough to chew through cow shit to get to them?

Important

Talon: Stop reading this and look at my post; +341|7019

Great game just for the sheer fun of it: ok so the story and presenation of Mercs 1 was better, but by scale this one wins by miles. Mercs 2 actually has boats, destroyable oil rigs and ships, and proper usage of helicopters (Mercs 1 had 'em, but they were ridiculously rare and weak)
