Wolfenstein - The New Order

Re: Wolfenstein - The New Order

Game looks fun but why do you have to push a button to pick everything up? It's 2014 walking or running over ammo and armor should be the default option.

2 instances early on where I ran out of ammo because I forgot I had to hit X to pick it up.

Really entertaining game so far though.

Re: Wolfenstein - The New Order

I might be in the minority but this game is 'meh' to me. Several things really irritate me about it and make it hard to me to really get into it at times. One that has already been mentioned is having to hit X everytime I want to pick something up. Even more of a immersion killer is that sometimes I can be halfway across the room and hit X and still pick an item up. It seems like if we had to walk over things instead of hitting X it would make things more consistent.

Blazkowicz voice in game is not good. That low angry whisper you hear anytime he speaks randomly in the game. It makes me wish that they had just taken any of his speaking parts out of the game altogether.

Entering into some of the cutscenes is clunky at times and makes it hard to get into one. One of the first ones at the start of the game there were bullets flying everywhere, I entered the cutscene and the world in which the cutscene took place was quiet.

I know it will make me sound lazy but why can't we have a grenade button?

A big one here. In one room I stealth killed a guard with a silenced pistol. Walked around the corner and there was another guard standing beside the body I just killed like nothing happened! In fact I stopped and watched him for a second to see if he was going to react and come find me but instead he simply turned around and continued his patrol until I stealth killed him the same way! Either he really hated that guy I just killed or the AI has no clue what goes on around them (I am playing on the next to highest level).

Stealth vs. Going Big. Going Stealth is way too easy in that sometimes I have been able to crawl right in soldiers line of sight but as long as I stay crouched they don't recognize me, and Going Loud can get brutally tough when all the aggro comes in. And those flying robots that shoot you when you go all out, why aren't they around when you are going stealth, that would be freaking hard to avoid detection.

The gunplay is good but I don't know that it is enough to keep this game in my collection once Watch Dogs comes out next week.

Grenade button is R1.

In terms of the AI, I think Uber is the way to play the game. I haven't seen any AI ignoring dead bodies. If fact, they will hear you if you don't creep up on them.

On Uber, you will die a lot.

Picked up a copy today and played through the intro. I have the difficulty set to, "I Am Death Incarnate."

It's a pretty good game. Maps are open enough that you can strategize and take out nazis using stealth or go guns blazing.

50% through the game, and damn it has been a wild ride.

I don't regret this purchase at all.

Re: Wolfenstein - The New Order

Having all the guns you have picked up in a level available at any time in that level is a fun retro throwback that works in this games favour.

Game looks fun and intriguing. May pick this up in the future.

Same here. Will grab one it hits a few price drops. We'll be a decent one to pick up during a lull. .

Some footage of me playing (sorry for poor quality). Probably mid-game spoilers, and excuse the music my iTunes random decided to pull:

It is the most fun I have with a single player shooter since the first Bioshock.

I pre-ordered Transistor and I have yet to play it, because I am always playing this lol.

Re: Wolfenstein - The New Order

This game is a breath of fresh air after not really enjoying Infamous all that much. I made it to Chapter 11 tonight, so I'm progressing through the game nicely. There have been a few spots where I ran out of bullets and was forced to use the cutting tool/laser shooter thing though. That led to some tough confrontations. Regardless, I'm having a blast playing this.

The game is awesome. Been having a blast playing it the last couple of days. With this game, the show, and watch dogs, I won't have time to play anything else for a while.

Re: Wolfenstein - The New Order

Just beat it on Uber. I feel good.

End Game Spoilers ahead.....

Spoiler

Surprised it ended as sudden as it did. It was a gritty game so the ending fit that theme. All in all a great experience albeit a little short, it made up for it by the action. One of my favorite PS4 games thus far.
