I agree with you HB... it is a change that was needed for me. I got the BFG last night!!! That is awesome... shot it one time and that is all I needed to see its destruction!!! Probably the biggest game gun I have ever shot lol. The thing I cant get my mind around is the 'no reloading the weapon' Im always hitting the 'R' key... lol and nothing happens unless you have a mod on the weapon.
All in All its a good game. Yes, its old school but old school is what one needs sometimes. The ones that are complaining are the young ones that never played the earlier ones. Yes I played the very first one (1993) and the #2 and the 3rd. The ones after that I didn't play. So yes its refreshing to play 'old school' considering my age.
I did play about an hour of M.P. and did enjoy it. It is better than what I played on the BETA. I cant see myself in there for hours on end, but who knows...
i'm enjoying it...it's a great looking game and the music score is just as good if not better. so far so good...and didn't get it for multi of course.
