People who have negative impressions are afraid to post here because they'd probably be accused of trolling and banned. If you want to know what the deal is, play the demo.

it's not that the reviews were wrong.. just that they dont appreciate what the game does right, it has laughable flaws though.

haha, yeah. i admit it's all irrelevant bullshit, but the girls are really hot :-\... imo, at least.
sometimes i do get caught up in the mindless drama of heidi and spencer tho
really the only other tv i watch is 24 (hopefully it will start up again soon), arrested development, and the girlfriend loves gilmore girls and i've embarassingly become a fan. *shruggs* it's better than the OC. I want to see Lost, I'd buy it on blu-ray but it's only season 3 out. (wtf, wheres s1 and s2?)
sorry for derailing the conversation with tv-talk :-\

sorry if you mentioned this already, but what is your class? level 2 is a fucking bitch for me as well, i am berserker and i'm dying way more than what i feel like i should be. i'm probably doing something wrong with my runes & equipment maybe...

it's not just unbalanced single.. me and my buddy got fucked beyond belief and he was a.. commando? Whatever the default class is.
im serious the amount of times we died was just unnatural.

Working my way through Jack of All Trades. So far I think Defender is the best class. His Immunity to Knockdowns is just SO KEY.
Wow this thread exploded. I haven't checked on it all day and I had to start at page 29 :lol I'm glad y'all pretty much ignored the couple of trolls that wandered in.
So anyway, the OP is now updated with a few new gamertags that were dropped and I made a special note of Valiancy's NeoGAF Too Human account (good idea, thanks for setting that up, Valiancy). We're up to 58 GTs, which is pretty damn decent. I also put a link towards the top of the OP to Henry Sterchi's post -- hopefully he keeps posting here!
It sounds like you're all enjoying this game a lot, I wish I had a 360 to play it with you all =)
[edit] And I just added a link to the Gametrailers review to the OP. In case you haven't heard, they ripped into TH pretty hard and gave it a 6.5 out of 10.

Finished up W3 tonight. I'm up at lvl 25. I just pimped out all of my armor the same color to get ready for W4 - I guess I'll tackle that tomorrow night.
Basically, guys are less likely to come sprinting across the map to attack you if you have soothing. At least that's how I understand it.BenjaminBirdie said:

Is there any way you can turn that down or off?
Somebody.... anybody.... hello?
Bought the game tonight and played for 6 straight hours. Good game. Not fantastic, not amazing, not earth shattering, but good.
I didn't really have any issues with level 2. I'm a Commando and i'm pretty much blowing everything up before it gets to me. I'm teching the missile defense spider. That thing is a life saver.

But really though, is it that "hard" considering that you just sort of respawn without any penalty, other than having to watch that drawn out scene of your body being taken away?
I don't know. That sort of bothers me. I think they could have come up with a better solution. Maybe keep it the way it is now, but you gain slightly less XP for a set amount of time after dieing.
It just reminds me of Prey. That game had basically no challenge, or consequence.

Finished world serpent and died 5 times up to this point.
I like the story thus far and dont see why everyone is so bothered by Thor. The graphics on that level were unreal with all the moving machinery.
One last note, cannons suck the shit off of ass hairs. I went cyber to have access to them, what a waste. Rifle with the grenade are just too good to use anything else.
The elevator down to two trolls was dirty

Fun game...stupid quotes...

Yeah I'm pretty much loving this game. I went through the Ice Forest until the boss fight in co-op this morning. Pretty awesome time.
Then tonight I started my campaign up and started from the beginning of the Ice Forest. I did extremely well. Didn't die too much really. I'm a champion and I'm using my rifle a ton to keep distance from the Trolls. It works.
I got my first couple of Epic pieces. I think I have an epic rifle, handguns, shoulder pads and leggings.
Anyone else find anything really sweet? Anyone have an epic set yet?
*Is the boss fight in the Ice Forest the end of the Ice Forest? I finished that boss fight and then checked the co-op menu and it wouldn't let me start any farther than 2-2. Everything past that was still locked.*

I started playing the game today and I must say, it's less buggy than the demo, which is great. The camera is still a bit off at times (like the transitioning from when the game takes control of it to show you something), but it's not as frustrating in battle anymore.
I'm playing as a bio-engineer with an emphasis on healing, but now that I think about it, that might be stupid since there's no real penalty for death.
I *think* I got the pre-order armor code even though I didn't pre-order. The Gamestop guy gave me some cardboard postcard-type thing and said it was armor. But when I read the back, all it does is say "Pre-order to get armor" or some crap like that and instructions on how to sign up for Xbox Live.
Question, in co-op, if you're one level and your partner is way higher, how does that work? Do the enemies scale to his level, or an average?

Beat the game in two long sittings. Took me about 14 hours.
Thinking of jumping in to play again, but there's still so much I don't understand about the game. Apologies if these questions have already been covered...
1) Do I get a bonus for having all the same rarity of armor? I have all orange-level armor but don't see a bonus anywhere...
2) Does the final boss drop loot? I searched around but didn't find any. I hope I didn't miss it, because I was expecting big things!
3) If I create a new character, is there any way I can transfer some of my cool items to that character?
4) I'm still confused about which enemies are dark polarity and why it matters... Can somebody explain?
5) Is there any way to shorten the poison and sticky fire damage? It's super annoying, and pretty much a death sentence unless you farm for health.
6) Would you pay 1200 M$ Points ($15) for DLC that added four player co-op?
Thanks guys!

There's a perferated sliver near the bottom of the card. Peel and then put that code into Marketplace under "Redeem Code" (or something similar).

People can talk rationally about the game's flaws (as I did, adroitly) in this thread, as long as you don't start lashing out at people enjoying it or start posting gifs about how Denis Dyack has rendered a small town homeless.
But yes, if you want to know what the deal is, play the demo. We'll save a spot for you on the GT list.

Beat the game. 11 hours. Lvl 29. I have very mixed impressions, so I'll post some stuff tomorrow. Definitely want to note that the story starts getting pretty good at the very end - ironic, unfortunately.

The last level was laughably hard for me. It was just nuts.
I'd be very happy to be wrong. I'm sure some people in the office appreciate the game for it's fun factor, but the aggregators made you a bit of an outlier, and sometimes that puts people on the defensive.
Technically the game has a lot of problems, but I think that only really matters to people who are reviewing the game in light of Dyack and it's lengthy development. As an end user...what the heck do I really care if the game is a blast?
I really hope that isn't the case. Obviously there is room to discuss the flaws of the game (numerous flaws...) but it's also nice to have a thread where people who are actually interested in playing the game, and not joyriding the periphery bullshit, can discuss it. Basically, it's just like any other official thread, magnified because of the incredible desire to troll Denis Dyack on the GAF.
Oh, and play the demo with iso or strategic camera!
