let me know how you like it! im waiting on the 7900gt i ordered from newegg to come in and be installed in my computer before i play this game...and no spoilers!
I have been playing it for 10 minutes or so, theres quite a few things you can tinker with and listen to the npcs talking. I'm liking the pistol, very satisfying to take out the enemy... loving the headshots.
It's too hard in some bits and too easy in others.
Some rooms I can rocket through, killing all the enemies and then suddenly you reach a room with 6 enemies in all shooting you with Shotguns D:
The room with the haywire forklift crane is especially hard and the bit with the **** HUGE Mutant.
I did notice a couple of bugs though.
There were a couple of times when something like a door opening is supposed to trigger and it didn't.
Occasionally the AI was really stupid and I could walk right in front of them without shooting me, then they don't even realise when I shot them in the face. But they still died so...doesn't matter.
Sometimes when a mutant was in a room with an undulating floor e.g. water and mud, the mutant would look like it was running about a foot above the ground.
Overall, I have very good first impressions, way better than SiN 1 which whilst still fun doesnt have the same character that Source gives the sequel (i.e. ragdoll physics and satisfying explosions)
I bumped the sliders to about 60% of the way up and DAMN it gets hard later. I dunno how long it is, but I'm 3.5 hours in and the minigun armored guys are a BITCH to fight. With just 1-2 of them unloading on you, you die inside of 2 seconds.
So far the mutagen stuff has hardly helped as it's a pain to stand in the cloud and then go find something to fight within the ~10 seconds it's on.
