The best part is that the one possible benefit of a design that offers no protection from bullets, shrapnel, energy weapons, nearby explosions, really agile single melee fighters, large numbers of melee fighters that use swarm tactics, drowning, vacuum, radiation, OR light drizzle is that you wouldn't have to use your radio to talk to someone not in a suit. So what's the first thing you hear after Generic Jackass Mech Pilot's suit "seals up"? His voice with the standard "I'm talking on the radio!" filtering! Dude, you're like fifteen feet away. Just speak up and we'll hear your not-very-badass badass one-liners FINE!MooseHowl said:
Ugh. Guys... shut UP. I couldn't even tell if the cutscene was supposed to be bad or not, because you talked over THE ENTIRE THING. Unskippable is best when you intermix your comments with the in-game stuff, not when you completely drown the cutscene out.
Yes, I know that's an impolite way of saying that, but I've said it before and apparently not gotten the point across, so I figure this time I'll go for the troll approach if that's what it takes.

Must agree with the earlier post about D.R.S. I stopped playing that game because even siting only a few feet from my T.V. I couldn't read the text and didn't know what to do in the game when a message would come up. I don't understand why developers feel like destroying our eyes.
Nice to know I'm not the only one out there who still plays games on an SDTV.
Brilliant LHC bit. Thanks for that.

You've never heard of it because no one bought it. It was a massive commercial flop. I got my copy free with a new video card.IronBahamut said:
It's an RTS game. One that could have been good had they actually finished it, getting rid of about seven million different bugs, and removed the gimmicky and incredibly obnoxious mechanic that made it impossible to quickly and efficiently command your army. Had they put another six months of work into it, it might have become worth playing.
The storyline seems to be a completely lost cause though. Needless to say, it doesn't get much better than this cinematic. Basically, there's generic-blocky-camo-blue-human-military versus generic-spiky-red-oppressed-mutant-monster rebels. Our frozen friend starts out working for the humans, then (SURPRISE SURPRISE) defects to the mutants a quarter of the way in. Supposedly there's some sort of great mystery that neither faction knows about, but some bugs actually prevented me from continuing the game to find out. Oh, and the human general looks like Barack Obama. That's pretty much all I remember.
It's sad, really. The Creative Assembly made the Total War series, all of which are excellent. I don't understand how the hell they even thought this was acceptable.
I am trying to understand the evocative nature of the intro to this game...
Then I try to stop because I realize they slammed every trope they could into the thing and spread the plotonium too thin.

"Segaaaa... Preeesents..."
That's going to be stuck in my head all day. Thanks, guys. Also, well-done with the LHC bit.

Ha, great episode. That cutscene was seriously bad. I can't even figure out what gen the game is from. The only other game to do that was Damnation.
I liked how you made it look like he wants to open the door because she sees a hot chick, then gives up because he sees she's got a nasty scar... it fit perfectly over the original scene.

Wow, dude, I can't belive they didn't change their style because you asked them! I mean, any good content creator needs to change everything if a single guy doesn't like what they're doing. I hope that now that you've made clear how upset you are they will start listening to you!Random Wanderer said:
