I'm all for this game.

Maybe she'll go out with me if I buy it :)

Finished the first campaign and boss with ad_hominem.

The pretty lady is actually one of the "reviewers" at that valid gaming site and yeah she is pretty nice looking

the women on the development team on the other hand... :lol:


Reading the bio of the development team, a lot of them are expecting their company to become the next big thing in gaming industry, earning billions etc (not even joking). I mean to be honest, considering how most of the development team has absolutely no experience when it comes to gaming industry it's no surprise that the game would end up awful. Still kind of funny how they demand 3+ industry experience if you for some reason would want to work for them.

I just bought the game yesterday and have been playing it pretty much all night. I love it. Its a lot of game for the money. The attention to detail in terms of the Mayan environment is top notch. Coop is going to be a lot of fun as was suggested in this review. I gave it an 8 out of 10 for the fun factor as well as the awesome landscape. You won’t go wrong for the money.

On arma's point.

To be fair the only 'constructive criticism' the guy quoted himself giving was saying the map's lighting was crap. maybe he said something before that but since he didn't all I can do is shrug. :|

but you see them callin out Interlopers later on down the thread??

Actually they were totally bigging us up as being a nice community! Unless it was extreme internet sarcasm.
They were referring to the chat as 'bad', which is understandable lol

I've heard that some of people don't like Interlopers because of some superiority complexes or something. Whenever I was at interlopers my responses have always been positive even though I'm very much not experienced. I can't remember who said it but I just remember it was agreed upon by a few people. :|

on the brighter side, interlopers is full of really nice people

I personally like Interlopers.

Interlopers is a nice community. They have really good tutorials

Love how on the about page they list "Grew up playing video games" and "Remembers the days of bla-bla" as if they're qualifications... I'd rather see past projects...
That's what she said.
