Who paid you to grab Dr. Pavel?
Just unlocked the revive badge. Hopefully. by next week, there will be a lot more diversity in player. I've only seen 1 saboteur and 1 snipe. The rest have been grunts or medics.

Sevchenko....is that russian?
I got used to it fairly quickly.Thrakier said:No, you don't get used to it. It's really the worst controls BY FAR. See you later in Halo 3, m8.
Feels like any other FPS played with a ps controller to me.NameGenerated said:I got used to it fairly quickly.
I wouldn't say that, it definitely has a unique feeling, but you do get used to it.Ilparazzo said:Feels like any other FPS played with a ps controller to me.

Oh, sorry.Thrakier said:I was just kidding because of the massive hyperbole in his statement.
well, that's not the case, but our brain easily adapt to this control sceme.. might not become your favourit, but we get used to it.. it's just the way it works..Ilparazzo said:Feels like any other FPS played with a ps controller to me.
No exaggeration on my part, I was being 100% honest. I thought it was that bad - does anyone know if there are differences between the promo and retail versions? Because everyone I've shared my promo copy with hate the controls just as much as I do, but on forums it doesn't seem like people have the same issues.Thrakier said:I was just kidding because of the massive hyperbole in his statement.
I use Alternate 2 and non-toggle zoom. So holding L1 zooms in, I've never really liked clicky-zoom.adversesolutions said:Only real issue I have with the control is pressing the right analog stick to aim from the sights. When I'm in the heat of shooting I'm trying to follow my target around, and if I press a little too hard on the stick, blam I'm zoomed-in and I'll lose the mark. Had a similar problem with COD4's knife being mapped to the 360 LAS, so hopefully I'll get used to this.

Xater said:Oh yes especially medics. I don't know how many times I wa slying right beside a medic with no enemy around and I still had to respawn.
Xater said:HEy what do I have to do to get the boost ribbons? Killzone.com is again not working...
The revive could be on cooldown, I felt like a douche each time I couldn't revive because of the CD.Xater said:Oh yes especially medics. I don't know how many times I wa slying right beside a medic with no enemy around and I still had to respawn.

Well on the plus side, you get their ammo when they die...FFObsessed said:It takes a while to recharge so maybe he'd just used it? Happens to me. I revive one person and everyone's like "Hey medic!!" "Revive me!" "Where you going??"
And I just have to leave them to die... ;_;
boyshine said:Are the analog stick delay, dead zone and lack of aiming precision/pixel accuracy something you learn to live with and ignore? It completely ruined the game for me. I played through once (on normal) of course, but I don't think I ever want to touch the game again because of it. Probably the worst controls I've ever experienced in a console FPS.
Fallout-NL said:Yeah the analog stick delay is really fucking annoying. I don't understand why so few are apparently bothered by it.

Victrix said:It's not a few, it's a good number of people bitching about it on various forums (and even youtube, for maximum angry nerd laughs). It's just sort of balanced out by people having fun with the game rather than bitching about the controls.
Partly because there may not be anything that can be done about it - if the controls were made this way by GG, it's not like they haven't had months into years to change them.
I still think they suck intensely and ruin an otherwise fun experience, but I only rented it, so I'm not too upset

check statistics in menu when you start the gameScrow said:i just got to the bit where youabout what % am i through the game?rush in with rico to save your two buddies and the chick scientist from being executed by radec.
oh don't worry, i'm bothered by it. the controls and cover system are eye gougingly frustrating. the only things the keep me coming back to this game are the graphics, atmosphere, and cinematic experience. the gunplay is simply annoying.Fallout-NL said:Yeah the analog stick delay is really fucking annoying.

That's not true for mission progress. It takes into account all the emblems and intel. I don't even know if I hit 50% when I completed it.Always-honest said:check statistics in menu when you start the game

Even after you've finished the game the first time around that number will be well under 100%... so it's not that helpful.Always-honest said:check statistics in menu when you start the game

Tempy said:It's possible the medic just revived someone. Needs a bit of time to recharge.

edit: and beaten
anddo0 said:What if the person just unlocked medic and doesn't have access to the "revive" option? Unless I'm doing something wrong I couldn't revive people while playing as a medic. It was also grayed out on the character screen.
Xater said:You get revive right away with the medic. Wouldn't make much sense otherwise.

ah, okay thanx (and NameGenerated and psychotext). i just checked it once. figured it was game percentage.Sean said:That's not accurate at all for judging mission progress, I beat the game with only like 30% or something. It calculates the intel and trophies and stuff into that percentage.
Press left on the D-pad and you'll equip the revive gun. After that just aim and shoot.anddo0 said:Ok, then how exactly does it work? I reach players in time but don't have the option to revive.
That totally works, tried it for a bit in Skirmish (may be different in MP?), 100% accuracy pretty much.postaboy said:WTF, the shotgun allows you to auto-aim by holding L1.
