so me and a friend got our game today, we played the first two missions (solo as we have to be offline) and IMO I think the game is great. We won’t be playing anymore because we want to enjoy playing it together properly over live.
positives off the top of my head…guns feel hefty, strong and deadly. Levels are much more open than before (even interior based levels)
chief is awesome as always, I love the connection with his team already. The story takes off right from the start, again, no spoilers here.
there are secrets to be found on the levels (skulls, Intel and weapons that seem a little stronger) like the blazing inferno on mission 2.
I must say the AI so far doesn’t feel much improved…but its no biggie, the prometheans however feel much better to fight! Much much better!
if anyone has any questions about gameplay feel free to ask

Well to be honest I only have one of the two. I walked right past it! My friend got it though and told me where it was. It was in a pretty easy location, but i didn’t see it so you may have to look round a little.
the Intel is rather easy to find, found 3 on the first run through of the first level.
I cant comment for the ones later on in the game though as I haven’t got there

difficult to say, I haven’t paid that much attention to them as the battles can be quite hectic. I can say they do use cover, not just stand behind it but they have animations that see different depending on the cover (example Tanaka was on one knew behind a piece of broken ship, then moved behind a wall and had her gun up ready to poke out)
They will however die for you mindlessly if you ask them to. If you’re down and ask for help in the middle of a load of enemies, they will just jump in and try to revive you.
They’re quite good at taking down targets you specify on heroic, legendary…not so much.

Great I was specifically worried about them being of no use on legendary because I was gonna run through it solo and they probably will be a nuisance.

Yeah, not the best, but not too bad. They will get downed a couple of times, but you will too probably so you know.
it’s interesting having them around, almost like you aren’t playing alone if you know what I mean?
