Beautifully said. That game is full of garbage right now. I have to agree mostly on the juice part though. Juice is extremely easy to get since you can either buy it, use to juice dispenser or just killing bots (Killing bots can get you a fair amount of juice very quickly without the juice endorsement) and enemies. I can't tell you how many times I would build multiple turrets only to have them demolished by a juiced assassin. The patch really did not help anything at all. Sure, now i can see who won the game at the end, but what else did they fix? In my opinion it is still very much the same buggy game except for a few tweaks.
It took me a little bit to get used the the shaky camera as well, but after getting used to it, i quite like it. I like the style they were going for and I am alright with the story being 4-5 hours long. I am very close too beating it and so far have been quite impressed. Kane and Lynch are 2 guys that just can't get a break. They also are interesting characters to me. Lynch, balding psychopath who is gradually losing his mind throughout the game, and Kane just trying to do a last job then stop with all these jobs. I have yet to play the multiplayer, but I am sure I will like it.
Also, I have yet too experience the glitch the Giantbomb crew had with the 360 version. Freezing when shooting someone after hours of play. Guess it was patched or i am just lucky.
Anyone else having some fun playing arcade mode? Since i have been enjoying it so much I should totally try out the multiplayer tonight. Cops and robbers sounds like a fun mode. Not sure about fragile alliance since i have heard people are annoying and just immediately go traitor. Are you guys enjoying the multiplayer?
I agree buzz. It is really dark and gritty and i love it. Like i said, after i beat it on hard, i am going to play through on extreme. Looking forward to it.
I agree that the way they presented the game is pretty amazing. I have not beat it yet, but i am close. So far i give it a 7/10. I am really liking it. Oh and by the way, i also got it from GF. I am kind of glad I did because even though I am enjoying it, i don't think it is a 60 dollar purchase. Maybe 40.
I am also enjoying Kane and Lynch 2. I went into it thinking I would like but man it is really fun. I am playing through it on hard and after I might play through it on extreme.
Yesterday I sat down and played Kane and Lynch 2 for a couple of hours and so far I have enjoyed it. I am playing through it on hard just so I have a little more challenge and so the campaign will hopefully last a little longer. I like the feel of the guns and playing as lynch is quite strange. He is pretty much losing his mind through the whole game, delving deeper into depression and madness.
Comments on the AI. Well sometimes it can be really nice and thought out, and what i mean is sometimes enemies will rush you or flank you (Remember, I am playing on hard so they might be a bit smarter), and sometimes they just stare at you waiting to be shot. Not to say they are really stupid or something.
About the graphics, I think they look alright. It certainly is not amazing nor ugly, but to some it may seem outdated. I also like the camera effects. Having an explosion happen and the camera just glitches out trying to get its image back. I also don't find a problem with the sprint camera effect.
Overall I am enjoying my time with Kane and lynch 2. I did rent it however, because I don't really think it is worth 60 dollars. So to those that have played it, what are you're thoughts?
Update: After beating Kane and Lynch 2 I have to say it got pretty repetitive. It was a good game and all but i don't think i will play it for awhile.
Otakugamer: I guess you are right. A 4-5 hour campaign really is a rent.
EliminatoR:I still have not played the second. Getting it tomorrow through the mail. I am sure I will like it, But the 5 hour story seems kind of bad. Maybe the multiplayer will be fun.
