Yeah the textures are blurry close up but the art style and gun play it excellent and this has to have the best AI in a FPS! Different enemies use different attack patterns and weapons, like the mutants who jump and swing and dodge left and right and some others who take cover, blind firing whilst a heavy armoured dude moves forward with a shield or a mini-gun. When you wound one, they will attempt to get away or try and crawl. Simply brilliant IMO _________________________ Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| MSI GeForce GTX 660 Black Knight 2048MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Antec 902 \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 "A nugget of purest green!"

Coot Drawing breath since 1981 Hotshot Registered: 08/30/05 Posts: 5727 Loc: !!USA!!	Which version are you playing Mace? Blurring as when you walk up to a mountain face you go crossed-eye blurry? Looks fun but I may have to wait till its cheaper. Too many other goodies coming out soon and I also want more ram and a new video card. Expensive couple of months here lol. _________________________ " Without morals a republic cannot subsist any length of time; they therefore who are decrying the Christian religion, whose morality is so sublime and pure...are undermining the solid foundation of morals, the best security for the duration of free governments."

MaceUK33 Don't tell him Pike Veteran Registered: 01/10/05 Posts: 12670 Loc: Darlington, UK.	PC version. It's because it uses a new texturing method where it streams 'megatextures' onto the surfaces and does away with tiles. Some people are going mad about it but for me it's completely playable and looks great. http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197970960396/screenshot/558669913778008088?tab=public It is great fun and it's what id are good at. _________________________ Intel i7 920 2.66Ghz D0 OC'd to 3.40GHz \| MSI GeForce GTX 660 Black Knight 2048MB GDDR5 \| Samsung F3 1TB \| Corsair 6GB DDR3 \| Gigabyte EX58-UD3R Intel X58 \| LG DVD±RW SATA DL RW \| Corsair TX 650W ATX2.2 PSU \| Antec 902 \| Coolermaster V8 CPU Cooler \| W7 HP 64 bit \| 27" iiyama monitor \| TM HOTAS Warthog #05225 \| TM Cougar MFDs \| Saitek Pro-flight combat pedals \| Track IR 5 "A nugget of purest green!"
