      Re: War Rock

      WarRock is a piece of ****.

      Why?

      The biggest problem is lighting. Holy ****ing **** are you kidding me? 2/3s of my screen is black half the time because the lighting sucks.

      Second problem is balance. It sucks. Heavy infantry units stink. Being an engineer is too situational and slow and you'll want to stick with being a medic. And in order to have good weapons, you need to constantly be playing the game (see below).

      Third problem is you can't change the controls. This sucks for me because my settings are really messed up for most games (example: I use F to reload.). Beta? Who cares, no excuse for the lack of something so important in a game.

      This game is the exact opposite of a "whenever-I-feel-like-it" game.

      Want a weapon? Cool. 3-30 days later it'll disappear. Then combine that with the fact primary weapons suck. The only primary weapon that doesn't completely blow is the sniper rifle.

        Re: War Rock

        I played this game, and it turned about to be pretty decent. When I say that, I mean decent, not good, or bad.

        Alright, well, the classes weren't different enough for it to really be noticable. There's a sniper(a person with normal guns and a sniper), and medic(same guns and a little selfhealing), a normal person(same guns), and this heavy unit(same guns with rocket launcher). Well, I dunno, they could at least make TWO of the default guns different.

        Alright, well, that's just fine, but I shot someone, they died. About literally 20 seconds later, it said I got shot by the person I killed. It's kinda odd how it happened, since the person was shooting the wrong way when aiming at me, anyway. It just happens with the way it works.

        Oh, and the modes. There's mission mode, which is like a TDM where you have to kill the enemy in a certain amount of time, or until they kill you. There's a real TDM, where you actually respawn and have some counter at the top of the screen. It seems to go down, so it's probably going down when someone gets killed, depending onthe team.

        Then there's Vehicle-Only mode. I don't really like the vehicles in this game, so I didn't play it, but I'm sure it's just that, a war between a bunch of people in vehicles. Really, why would you play an FPS for a vehicle-only mode? If you're gonna do that, play something like Space Cowboy.

        Alright, anyway, it was decent, and I mean just decent. 5 out of 10. Unless you're really into this kind of game, I don't recommend you get it. I really like FPS, but I don't really think I can play this game for more than a week, even if I force myself.

          Wow how many shooters have you played.

          That's the primary gun, meaning it's the most basic of guns that comes with each class and they're not the strongest.

          That said, the classes are much different. Maybe not THAT much different, but different, none the less. For example, heavy infantry units suck, and like every other single game in existance scouts are good.

          Correction: it really isn't vehicle only, they're just really large maps with more vehicles.

            This game will get way better once it stops lagging horribly. I had this the first day it was released, it's pretty neat.

              Yeah, the lag ingame is probably the thing that makes me rate it 5/10 rather than like 7.5 or 8/10. It just really kills it.

                        Again prove that DSL will make you lag in WR. Otherwise quit pulling crap out of your ass.

                        btw did you build your own comp?

                              Wow you actually bought a dell? You n00b.

                              First of all, you've never played WR on DSL so you can't just pull a conclusion out of your ass. Much to your ignorance, there are varied speeds of DSL. There exists DSL connections that are almost as fast in download rate than Cable and way faster upload rate. You need both good upload and download to not lag in a n online game. You should know that.

                              EDIT: Holy crap you use Norton too. N00b to the max.
