I got to level 41 with Roxy, played a co-op game and now all my upgrades are reset and 0 points to spend. 
Just finished the game. All in all, i think it is a great, fun, addictive and good looking game and well worth the money.
+ looks great
+ performs smoothly
+ fun fun fun gameplay
- time restrictions add nothing to the game and shouldn't have been included
- could have done with a bit more variety in enemies and gameplay
- more could have been done with the driving aspect of the game
- would have liked one or two mid-level checkpoints
- music didn't do much for me
The positives far outweigh the negatives though. I'd love to see some additional levels appear as DLC or a proper sequel. I also would love to see a top-down racer (like super cars) made out of this engine. I'd be eternally grateful for that.
On a sidenote, i recognised the name of Andreas Tadic in the credits. Still remember this name from the awesome Team 17 Amiga games (Superfrog, Project X,...).

Yeah, that sucks. Happened to a friend of mine when we were playing online, too.edgefusion said:I got to level 41 with Roxy, played a co-op game and now all my upgrades are reset and 0 points to spend.
It actually happened to me when I just started out (I was only level 8 or so), but weird thing is that after I played another mission, my level at the end got a ridiculous boost...I know I didn't level up that many times during the mission. My guess is that it somehow reset afterwards and factored in the original points again. My friend was too pissed to give it a try, so I don't know if it was just me or what. But yeah, online play in general for this game is completely buggy. Crashes, freezes, glitches, etc.
I agree with everything but these two. The timer isn't THAT restrictive, but enough to force you to keep pace. It's fun and hectic trying to fit in all the secondary objectives while balancing time with the primary.wouwie said:
And adding one or two mid-level checkpoints is over-doing it and pretty much would ruin any challenge in the game. We already get 2 lives, which I think is generous enough, and if you die, it's not like you have to start the entire game over again.

Anyone else mention this? I was going through Giant Bomb's "New Games" list for release dates and see what else was dropping in the fall flood. They have the PC version of this listed for Oct. 19th. Take that with a grain of salt though, fuck sega, etc.

This went from "PC Day 1!" to "Guess I'm just gonna wait for that $5 Steam sale." Eat a bag of dicks Sega ='(
I did. We'll see how it goes. I should have bought Rock of Ages.

So what's the better version of this game, XBLA or PSN? I was reading about some glitches on Trophies over on the PS3trophies.org forums. Does the same problem exist on 360? Really enjoyed the demo!
I was playing this on Saturday, playing on Hardcore difficulty. Failed to finish Mission 9 and finally had to switch off the 360. Started it up last night again, and the 360 tells me that the savegame is corrupted. Had to overwrite it and start over. Dunno if this was related to the update to the game, but still, ouch. Ended up playing up to Mission 7 again, a lot easier this time around even though I had to start my character over from lvl 1. bu bu

Sounds like it's totally worth it. The game is not all thet amazing to make so much fuss about a delayed PC release, but the HL2 buggy and Antlion weapon seem like a cool addition. Wish they would add that to the console versions.
So 14th October... http://blogs.sega.com/2011/09/26/gordon-freeman-joins-the-renegade-ops/
Bah. At least the DLC looks cool but it seems to be only for copies that are bought from the Steam.

Dear Master Race,
Stop pooping up this thread with platform begging. I am playing on a console right now, as I type this, it is great fun
Buy a console, and move on. Stop letting the world pass you by. Life is too sort not to play on a comfy sofa
Regards,
Me

I tried the demo for this game this weekend. It's beautiful but overall I was very disappointed. Going in I thought it was going to be Jackal-like and linear (I hadn't read anything on it, just watched the trailers), but instead they gave us this open level find-the-way bullshit and I pretty much hated it.
Don't get me wrong, it looks like they nailed what they were trying to do, but it's just not something I wanted. It's by no means a bad game.

Oh man, Gordan's car? I wonder if the PS3 and Xbox will get some kind of console exclusive car.
