Hey,

anyone playing the demo? Let's just say it's a game for the fans and old players from part one, and considering i and my brothers used to play the first game in Lan i would count myself to that playerbase.
Now the demo itself is shit. I mean the menu is shit, there is no option to mute people nor to switch off your own mic, so everyone is talking always, the only solution being: don't have a mic.

Joining a game can be a pain in the ass. It's the same system IWnet used for MW2, just worse. Sometimes it tells you that it found enough players and then it starts over at 0 because you obviously didn't get into.
And then they only included 8 player deathmatch. I mean comon, it's about the 3 races, why no teamdeathmatch?

Gameplay itself. Hard to get into, just like the old game, lots of keys to remember, especially for the enormous options you get as predator, but a lot of fun when you mastered it, just like EiR Tongue

Aliens are probably the main amount of players, close range killers. Predators are restricted to 2 and probably one of the harder to learn race, but can take on multiple enemies with the right devices.
Down at the bottom the marine: not many play them, hard to master, but i have to give respect to good marine players, because those guys can be a bitch to kill and easily turn themselves into the hunter.

It's a lot of fun and i would like to test the teamdeathmatch afterall.

PS: Pretty neat killanimations Wink

Its rather lame imo, its all about stealth kills, sometimes its like 6 stealth kills in a row. Pred cannon sucks too Tongue

Marine is OP tbh.

It may be, its a shame its got sniper rifle accuracy and has a slow bullet so you can easily dodge it, trying to hit a alien with it is lol.

Alien tactic = Sprint at the guy jumping a few times if its a marine, and circle strafe till you can grab and insta kill.

I think AvP will pwn, I am really fed up with all the zombie hysteria.

The FFA in the AvP demo is abit too chaotic, but i think it will be really fun in team deathmatch. + here we have a FPS that actually use to have a good campaign!

I get at least 1.5 seconds of lag between the time I shoot and the time the bullet arrived making marines quite literally impossible to play.

The rest of the classes are fine though, although lag can affect these too.

Ah good ol germany, AvP won't ever be sold here, that's why there is no official link for german players.

Too dangerous for young kids, they will probably try to bite someones head off after playing as alien.

The first AvP was fantastic(I think there has been a total of 5 in the series but i mean the first FPS for it) It was scary. the 2nd one had a great story campaign and multiplayer was fairly decent.

Did they keep things like the Smartgun for marines?

I'm not familiar with that word, can you explain the smartgun? Also, i don#t think all weapons are integrated into the demo. And so far in the demo there is only deathmatch, and that gets chaotic at times.
But you get the normal assault gun, with grenades, the shotung, minigun and a sniper rifle.

Also: new campaing video i think - http://www.shackvideo.com/?id=17060

cannot download it and find it in the steam store =(

Is there even going to be a team deathmatch? There better be Sad And there better be a mode where theres a solo fully upgraded pred and you gotta hunt everyone else.

Anyone play the first farcry on the xbox? It had that mode where there was like 2-3 of the super monster things against like 40 soldiers and the soldiers had to make it to a certain point and hold it for a certain ammount of time and the monster had to keep killing them before the time was up, that was the best multiplayer mode ever.

Hahaha, nevermind aloha.

They just deleted all the AvP demo files for german IPs. My demo is gone, i just wondered why the game doesn't start when i click the shortcut.

Yay for failcensorship.

There is the pulse rifle, smartgun, flamethrower, and shotgun that I've run across so far.

Yep, it's there. But I felt that the good ol' pulse rifle is more effective.

whoops, saw that mal already answered that.

ye all classic guns, dunno if they will add Queen and the "mech suit". Flamethrower seems to be "sucky-sucky". Sad
