Bulletstorm...

whew~

10 char.

 

One really disappointing thing is the lack of co-op. The game was so obviously designed with that in mind, I'm pretty sure they simply cut it out hoping to sell it as DLC later.

 

well this is EA we are talking about here :/

 

Yea I've seen the major site's reviews so far. I've grown to heavily distrust them to the point of ignoring them entirely. I'll wait til some gamers that don't have a vested interest in money garnered from selling/promoting the product review it before I buy now.

 

must be Epic, People can Fly wasn't this baggish for painkiller, but WHAT IS THE POINT OF ENCRYPTING those files? just myself i was trying to change some settings, works so well for borderlands, but no?

it opened up and it was all chinese letters...

so, is there a converter or something? i have an idea, is it possible to take another UE3 game's config and use those?

 

Yes, you can convert it. Just figure out what encryption algorithm they are using and the key. Have fun...

 

Bulletstorm Review - PC Review at IGN

 

Keep in mind that, if a game is released on multiple platforms at once, the 360 version is the only one which gets a review.

 

ign is some of the most biased idiots out there.... for example they gave the first stalker a bad review because they didn't know how to play it. so it got a 0... I would trust foxnews over them anyday

 

Yeah.. No thanks GFWL.. I am glad I didn't impulse buy this today. Keep waiting for crysis 2 and homefront.

 

i kinda expect more hours in story mode...

 

News Corp. (aka Rupert Murdoch) own IGN and Fox News... so, it isn't really a choice.

 

sorry dude, u'll need to pay more than $60 for that.

no thanks man im keeping my stash for crysis 2 and homefront

 

They reviewed the console version , not pc......

 

I'm a PC gamer , don't give a damn about console reviews ... as long as the pc version don't come with aim assist , everything is kool.

I've read that the game looks way better on pc.

 

Fun fact: Aim assist is enabled by default on the PC Version
You can turn it off obviously.

 

You can turn off the aim assist. That's what I do.

It's just a fun game, definitely not your typical shooter.

 

hmm so should I get this game? And so basically, there's nothing i can do after the campaign?

 

First Paid Bullestorm DLC Announced :/

 

any pc mods for this? it is Unreal engine 3 after all...

 

the game JUST came out.... its going to be a while before mods hit the scene

 

So is there co op in this game, like for single player campaign?

 

Unfortunately no. Would have been sweet though

Bulletstorm developer interview: Clifford Bleszinski - Telegraph

 

There is coop but its not for campaign... its round based where your team has to get a number of points before you can move on the the next round

 

You can tell they just can't wait for getting more money from those paid DLCs.

 

That by itself has convinced me I'm not purchasing this game until it gets cheaper and comes out in some kind of GOTY package or something (you know they will) with all of the DLC ever made + all the patches about a year from now which will be the same price / cheaper than it new.

 

Pretty sweet deal ! Gears Of War Free with Bulletstorm
Welcome to Games for Windows Marketplace - Games For Windows

 

That's a pretty bad sign.

 

i actually agree, GOW was released years ago, how come they include it in the package? i was intrigued i thought GOW 2 or GOW 3 beta will be released in PC, i hoped too much i suppose. if they include a game that was released years ago then they are too desperate for sales status, that their stand alone game doesn't quite cut it imo.

 

dlc day 1? pass. stupid companies don't understand that we aren't as dumb as they are.

what's funny is that we have a pre-release DLC announcement for BF3. The game isn't coming out for months. This is getting out of hand. Publishers are really abusing this by splitting their content, selling most of it for full price, and then charging for the rest.

DLC was meant to be a way for developers to get paid to continue to produce content for their games, and even then it was questionable. Who wants day-1 dlc, or even worse, prerelease dlc?

 

Or

They can use this to attract more to pre-order

That is probably one of their main reasons for the DLC for BF3. To attract old/veteran players to pre-order.

At least this is Free and not like MW2 or Dead Space 2(I think DS2 is already in the DIsc, not sure)

 

Completely agree, Its like Marvel VS Capcom 3, half the characters that MvC2 had, and they already have DLC set up for it, You can't me the ran out of time to create and tune characters for the game. But on the the other side there are games that use it properly, GTAIV, Red Dead, Oblivion, Fall out 3, so on. Bullet storm though, is a huge pass, duke will do humor way better, and I find the whip to be WAY over used. Go back to the drawing board Epic.

 

I doubt it, the unreal engine is just easily modable, Duke will be better anyways. Time for some serious sam in the mean time.

 

Another crappy console port.......I've seen many people reporting problem like mine - very low FPS on display native resolution (1440x900 in my case ~20 FPS) and high FPS on a little lower res (1280x720 in my case ~60 FPS). Some weird issue with scaling, I guess game is optimized for the console resolution 720p.

 

at anything above 720p it lags... lower then that i can max it.... and the scaling is messed up for me too

 

1080p here and it works perfectly fine, so its not right to say that it lags above 720p.
For anyone wondering there are two bugs as now:

- any 16:10 resolution makes the game unplayable. Stick to 16:9 resolutions (like 720p,1080p) to get it working. Or, simply use your native resolutiob BUT create a custom resolution with a few pixel less (eg. If your native is 1440x900, make a custom res of 1440x899). That gives your performance back while retaining the same native res.

- AA is bugged as hell. UT3 doesnt have AA in first place, mind this. So their implementation keeps 60fps till 4xAA if you have a decent hardware. If you use 8xAA your fps drop will be around 20fps roughly.

Hope it helps someone,specially with the resolution part. Experiment with it and youll get pretty results. Btw still is a bugged game.

 

No problem with 1920x1200 here No AA of course that bogs down the performance really bad. Something is fishy with the AA in this game that takes so much performance. I have no problem running with AA with any other UE3 engine game.

However maxed out settings at 1920x1200 fps never drops below 40 for me It stays more in the upper 50´s.

Even in heavy bossfights like this:

Whats the point of running the game in 16:10? Whats wrong with 16:9?

 

I am not really impressed with the graphics.

 

Why should I run in 16:9 when my native is 16:10 1920x1200

 

Haha ya thats all fine and dandy, im just curious if theres a benifit of one over the other? better FoV or what?

 

Err, Mag, i was just about to say this. The only 16:10 res not affected from this bug is 1920*1200, prolly because its over 1080 height, kinda a full hd res.

 

I always game at 1920x1200. I want the crispness of native res

 

i think this game is not more on skill, i already played it and noticed you have all the time in the world to AIM once you do the whip time based thing....maybe more on creativity killing. and of course that is another feature but in my dictionary not the skill shooting that i do. i remember my shooting days in dead space 1 and 2 without using the slow motion force to the enemy. just following the crosshair/blue dot to where ever spot your enemy jumps from side to side. anyway this is just my opinion though.

 

me neither

 

For those who played the game.

lolz and i thought that duty calls is funny. who cares about toilet humor 5 hour gaming as long as i KILL WITH SKILL

 

I get ~30 fps on all high at 1080p. However at the title screen with the nice background and all its ~22-25.

I don't know why people don't like the graphics. They are pretty
