**[b]Final Edit:[/b] I wish I could make this a "Maybe" instead of a "Yes" or "No" review. I'd rate this game a 6 or 7 out of 10. The following will be my experience of the game within the first 6 hours. Hopefully if you get this game you'll have a better experience than me. I see the vision for this game and I admit once things started working I had fun.
[h2] (Original Review) This could've been great, but... [/h2]
[b] The game would not load to the main menu... like, at all. Lemme explain: [/b]
When I got the game, the "3 minute intro" people complained was un-skippable was skippable, but after the Terms of Service Agreement there was a loading screen. Okay, this shouldn't be a problem.
[h3] It was indeed a problem... [/h3]
It turned into a [b] 30+ minutes infinite loading [/b], and there wasn't much of anything to look at either. I loaded this on my SSD drive as well. This was really upsetting since I wanted to actually give this game a try and join my friends. I even got the Marshall Edition b/c I wanted to support the game. I cannot recommend this game if I cannot even make it to the main menu.
[b] Edit:[/b] Did an uninstall / re-install & restarted my PC. Fixed the infinite loading issue, but have to admit this makes me wary of the game; no other game, especially higher-demanding games, force me to do this just to be able to play.
[h3] At 3.5 hours I finally was able to play & finish my first game with no issues. [/h3]
[b] Edit #2:[/b] This game is almost as badly optimized as Damned 1 (it got taken off the Steam Store). It froze my PC more times I can count and I've only had this game for just over 2 hours. Sound effects are... "okay".
Gameplay is fun - definitely better with friends, but at least it's not too difficult to get into a match. For the trouble I've had trying to get the game to function without being forced to restart my whole PC however, [u]I kinda wish I got this game for free.[/u]
Managed to fix the game to be in a playable state, but if I wanna close the game or need to check another app - I have to bring up my 2nd desktop and "End Task" with the task manager because the whole game breaks and freezes if I leave for a moment.
