A fitting end for Aviator Game then.

The story had better be great because the combat looks incredibly dull.

[Sly Boots]

It's getting very middling reports from journos playing the preview.

[Rusty]

What annoying bullet sponges.

Zoe from Eurogamer mentioned that she hated the protagonist. Not in a "love to hate" kind of way, just hated. Given the very brief bits of dialogue we got in that video, I'm ready to agree with her. Sweary and sarcastic without a hint of charm, that's definitely what I want to be listening to for x hours of videogame.

I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt in that it's an open-world game and it's possible some of those enemies aren't supposed to be easy to kill with the weapons the player has, but I do agree that it's going to be a chore if that's indicative of the game as a whole.

Feels like a typical "release in Q1 because by then everyone is desperate for new games" kinda game...

[Lenny Solidus]

Watching all of that only served in making me realise how desperate I still am for a Bulletstorm 2.

Day 1 on Game Pass means many will install out of curiosity but probably drop pretty quick.

Mama that looks absolute shite. Whoever signed off on the cum-glove weapon? "We have a great idea for the game, bukkake-fist! You spray spooge over the bads who end up coated in it!"

I sub to Gamepass but am really not interested in seeing any more of that (I think I lasted about a minute into the vid).

[Animalmother]

Perhaps at the development phase someone asked about weapon ideas and they ran with the suggestion "Toss any old wank in there.."

Someone explain to me wtf this is all about

I mean come now, this was beyond inevitable considering a free to play game based on Halo of all things somehow managed to drop from 269k players right down to just 5k today. Every step seemed like a disaster.

The question is who should pick up the mantle of reshaping a new Halo vision? Those are some considerably large shoes to fill after Bungie and the utter long term fumbling of 343i.

[DjchunKfunK]

343 have come out to debunk that report over the weekend.

Don't think we have a thread for this, but probably worth raising awareness of how bad it is:

[Hatredsheart]

Indeed
