    Ambience, ambience, ambience. I f---ing love it. I only played about half an hour last night but its already everything i hoped it would be. Ive just got into the city and and im about to go see that guy you have to report to. I love how fluid it is and the new fighting system seems decent so far. Are you having frame drop problems at all? mine seems to get quite laggy at times

    Yeah mines abit laggy. But more laggy today because of the maintenance but I fixed it. Do this: pause>other> and uncheck the first 2 boxes. This helped drastically. I've finished the beta and I'm liking it. Wish I could replay missions though. Really enjoyed the last mission. You'll see it lol

    I really liked it. I like that it is more open and gives you more choices. it looks great although i thought it could still look better.. And there was a ton to do in the beta..

    There was ALOT to do in the beta which can mean 2 things either they gave us abit of the full game or have limited us to what we can do.
    Games like Battlefield Hardline flopped imo as I played the Beta and the beta was the full game. Same weapons, gear, inventory, vehicles. Only different thing was maps and gamemodes. It became repetitive as the beta was just the full game but with no maps.

    Can't wait for Overwatch beta. That game looks pretty cool. The reviews are saying it's reminiscent from Team Fortress 2. Going to make a thread once the beta starts!

    I never even finished the beta there was so much to do.. I love the way it feels. It's very fluid and for somebody who hadn't played the original beforehand it did a good job of explaining the controls and it wasn't very hard to figure out.

    Yo forreal. I never played the first but this game felt refreshing and not like a sequel I had to learn about. Did you play the last mission? When an intruder comes into that place your infiltrating and drops something?

    We did a review a while ago; it will say more than I could type here. Don't really wanna make a thread here to take up all the space like a whor-. (Well that and I'm not really well-known here as much as the other forums I post in, so it would be awkward...):



    I love this s--- so far. I think they are going in the right direction. They just need to fix a few things. I really liked the beta for Uncharted 4 Multiplayer as well. Pretty good year for gaming

    Really excited for Catalyst tho. Hoping for a VR sequel because that would be jaw droppingly amazing with the Vive.
