Quick Look: Worms W.M.D

Haha around 31:34 best "move" by Vinny, was laughing so hard :)

Really like having Dan visit GBeast, it's makes for some fun videos.

But.. a huge part of the fun of Worms always was not knowing what weapons did or how to use them, and finding out while blowing yourself up..!

Competently playing Worms just seems horribly boring.

Not every day you see Dan get trolled...glorious.

I wish they showed what the rope is like. On the Steam description it says they finally fixed the rope physics, but I'm still skeptical.

Dan should stay on the Beast coast

@theirishsage:It's supposed to be like rückwärts - which means backwards in German.

Dan and Vinny have awesome chemistry. This was great.

As for the game itself: While I don't like the redesign of the worms (why mess with perfection?), this looks fantastic. Love the weapon mods.

Dan is great with this crew

Pete Za, come on guys.

Paul Mcockov, for worm names [used to be one of my characters on guildwars years ago]

As someone that liked worms and gunbound in the past, this one seems less appealing than the world party remaster of 2014 or the worms game that came out in 2015.

What i find fun about worms is being able to learn how certain weapons react to the wind and make amazing skillshots with it. The airstrikes are mostly used when you're behind and you're making a decision to dig a worm in, while you use the (limited) airstrikes as sole weapon to damage the opponent while staying hidden and hoping to make the comeback happen.

All the vehicles seem fairly spammy and riskfree to use. Especially because you can steer after the turn with the helicopter to get yourself away from imminent danger. The mech can be useful to jump at higher gaps, but we already have the ninja rope for that, which is a TON more fun to use! It just seems redundant to me. Also because the attack of the mech seems hardly better than a bat to the face or a dragonpunch.

The only worthwhile new idea that i see is the crafting aspect. Crates used to contain a random weapon, which could be great or inconsequential. Being able to decide what weapon you create after grabbing a crate is neat and adds depth to the game.

Also, when they played the local game, why were there only 6-10 ish factions? I remember previous games having way more factions than that. Where are the scottish worms?

Oh! It's like GORILLA.BAS but with worms instead of gorillas! That's a neat idea!

Man I really wish you played with timers and instead of heavy every super weapon unlocked from the beginning, doesn't really show the actual gameplay when everybody dies in one shot.

I really don't know why people don't look fondly on Worms 3D. Forts was definitely an unbalanced nightmare, and Mayhem may as well have been an expansion for 3D, but 3D is definitely a very good Worms game.

EDIT: Also you could totally forward flip in Mayhem at the very least, possibly Forts as well. (Maybe 3D too? It's been a while.)

lol at the Worm Donald Trump poster in the dilapidated Downtown theme

Watching Dan be completely oblivious to Vinny's trolling multiple times in one video is truly beautiful. Dan for Beast!

This was worth watching just to see the "tears of a worm" crafting component. That's pretty great.

2D Worms has never been not fun. Also, perfect ending, I just threw my hands in the air when I saw Dan's last worm fly into the ocean.

I remember playing the hell out of Armageddon and World Party, but it was so aggravating watching them play here that it didn't make me want to play the game at all. I know they're not all worms experts, but come on, you're supposed to be showing off the game not stumbling through doing the most basic actions. Next time, play the game a little before putting up the quick look. I can't tell if the game is just a pain to play or if it's because they suck or only because they haven't play much. This is one of the worst quick looks I've seen in a while, and I was actually excited for a new worms game, especially after the abomination that was 3d worms.

Sorry for the rant, but this was so damn terrible. People saying that when Dan's turn was wasted was funny, and the whole time, I just wanted to see some different weapons.
