I agree. I was pumped for this game but I am afraid the game will be limited and dated as its been pushed back several times now.

Wow, the explosions and gun look/response when fired looks like week sauce...


The more of this game I see, the less it appeals to me :(

I think it's weird that a game that has so many options for character customization has no option to choose gender. Unless, of course, I missed it.

I was really excited about this when it was first announced. Now I can't even feel hatred for it.

" Oh god... self-resurrection will be worse than last stand I can just see it now. "

Last stand was only bad for stupid people. I never had a problem just tapping the guy one more time in MW2, although apparently a bunch of people had trouble tapping me. Black Ops I've had a lot more difficulty, but the less said about that game, the better.

This looks like it could be good, but I'm not dropping $60 for it without knowing for sure, especially with SOCOM 4 coming out.

Think it needs more recoil/spread.

 

and they HAVE to make the hitmarkers removable (one for every shot)

I'm tired of hearing, seeing, and thinking about Brink. It is not special. It is not deep. It is a derivative train wreck.  The game is shit and no number of advertisements is going to change that fact. Spread the word, people. Let's make sure this thing goes down in flames faster than Haze.

This was actually subject for debate around the time the first gameplay footage came out. Their line was that it would have required too much manpower, but that it was in the original design. 

That pretty much means that at some point their backers lost faith in the product, and cut it's budget.

The premise sounds cool, but the art is just awful.

It'll be a good bargain-bin game I bet.

Cool, I guess? I don't know.

It's been too long, and the actual game footage is such a huge departure from the awesome looking trailers from last year.

I don't know why but the game just looks bad. I can't put my finger on it but just something seems off. Graphically it seems fine, it might just be the ugly looking shapes and figures of the doods thats putting me off.


And the game I'm not excited for at all. Class loadouts, guns, perks, and parkour. Meh.

@Keron: Its possible I actually wanted to see if the game has changed at all. To see if I might actually care for it. It doesn't look like the video has changed my opinion. I'd like to see what people see in the game but I'm just not seeing it I guess.
