The only major gameplay issue I have so far is that either there is very little splash damage from explosives or there is not enough tactile response to know you are getting someone with a blast. There are times I swear a blast should have hit someone and it didn't even hit them. But I got over it fast and it is overall a minor annoyance.

I had the Multiplayer "freeze" up on me once. It gives you the HUD with a black screen. I had to hit reset and the next time I connected it was fine.

The game isn't gorey, but there is violence. I think I saw some spurts of red stuff when I shot people and If you head shot the Praying Mantis Aliens their heads explode and goosh a little bit.

hmmmmmm. i found kranken online and joined up with him and it said updating forever and he was the client.

is this a glitch or does it have to be more than 2 player ??

ShyGuy · « **Reply #1655 on:** June 25, 2009, 02:23:25 AM »

I think when it says client it means that he had joined a private match. I think you have to have the match host as your friend.

Haven't tried online yet but I think I'm pretty far in the single player campaign (not sure though), I Went through the big conduit and am in the bad guy's lair

OK peeps I beat the game, have to say I had fun from beginning to end (the last sequence was frustrating until I figured out what was the best approach to it). The AI is quite good, and while the game is linear it struck a cord with me and unlike so many other games I own, I actually played it from beginning to end in one day. It has a couple of twists (not to mention an opening for Conduit 2), and the story while not the most creative is well done, and both Kevin Sorbo along with Mark Sheppard do an excellent job (though I have to give the edge to Sorbo, but I think it was because they made Mr. Sheppard talk without an accent). Anyway from what I seen HVS should be proud and I hope people actually buy it!

Here are my impressions. After tinkering with the controls I just said I'll go with the defaults. So far it is pretty good. The story is nice thus far. Got past the Library of Congress. You have to be careful with ammo especially with all these hatcheries around. I noticed something that certain things will heal you. In one of the stages the water will heal you. I wonder where the story is going to head.
Overall I am enjoying it.

I've been enjoying the campaign so far. I think I'm a level behind you, Maxi, because my next mission is the Library of Congress one.

Maybe somebody could answer this question: How violent is this game? I know it is rated "T" so there can't be any gore in it, but is there any blood?

Yes, there is blood. Not a lot of it, but it's in there.

Peachylala · « **Reply #1662 on:** June 25, 2009, 11:54:15 AM »

It's basically Goldeneye level violence.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #1663 on:** June 25, 2009, 12:17:49 PM »

My favorite weapon so far is the special Pistol with the red laser sight on it. Boom, oneshot!

Ok, now heres a fun question for those who have gone through the campaing

How long is it, and what type of player are you. I.e. are you the player who searches and looks at things to get a good feel, explorer type, or are you the guns blazing type and smashed your way through the game with a little stops here and there"?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #1665 on:** June 25, 2009, 12:30:38 PM »

I've successfully not played this game at all yet.

Pro you're becoming the new Mario (which is not necessarily a bad thing). SORRY FOR THE PERSONAL ATTACK!

Pretty much guns blazing, thogh I stopped to look around if the ASE. My main strategy for the game was hiding and sucking the enemies into searching for me so I could ambush them. It took me 4.5 hrs to beat it (that of course doesn't count the times I had to restart a level)

YOU'VE ATTACKED MY PERSONAL

Mario is a role model.

I hope so, then Pro could possibly end up like Mario. We can only hope

I haven't completed the game yet.I'm on stage 9. I think that level has the last boss.

I pretty much am cautiously aggressive. I pretty much attack and fall back at times. I am also a bit of explorer. I use the ASE most of the time. I like how they did the story through the radio.

how far are you in time wise with your play style.. I wonder if the AI handles those scenarios differntly?

kraken613 · « **Reply #1672 on:** June 25, 2009, 01:28:25 PM »

I am just using human. I bumped my turn speed up too. I think I have finally found a good control scheme.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #1673 on:** June 25, 2009, 01:33:07 PM »

Please explain to everyone how you achieved this, and why regular people would bother.

I wasn't really keeping track of the time but I just beat the game and it says 8 hours. I looked over the game stats and I have missed lots of things such as those messages. I think I got 3 and there is like 60 I think.

I'm wondering if anybody got any cheats unlocked? I got 2. Unlimited ammo and 1 hit kills. There is another one Firey deaths. Also some things related to the ASE.
