That is what it is called.
I keep getting messages about how I "just" play this game and blah blah blah.
I have to tell you guys, why do you think so many of us are playing the hell out of this?? Because it is FUN!!!!!!
Here is my take on the difference on this and other games and why I like it so much.
To start, I love mechanical stuff. I build rock crawlers, Nitro RC cars, drag cars, anything with a motor I dig it.
Second, I like destroying shit.
Third, I like learning.
Fourth I LOVE my Old Man Mafia Family.
This game has taken all of these things and brought them together for me. No longer am I running around a map and getting sniped from a hidden assassin OVER AND OVER AND OVER. No longer does one person come into a room and dominate everything and ruin the game play. No longer does a combo weapon kill me in one shot. No longer am I spawn owned.
Chromhounds takes all that out of it by evening the paying field, Your mech does not die from on sniper shot. You can be getting your ass kicked and turn it around and win the fight. Playing with the squad requires TEAMWORK, their are no STARS. We work as a team. Going to the lobby and helping your teammates build a stronger faster Hound, giving parts away to them so they are up to par with you, all part of the game.
I jumped into COD last night and just did not enjoy it. It was capture the flag; the opposing team had snipers on two buildings popping us from our spawn point. The also were just lobbing in grenade after grenade after grenade, I couldn’t move, just kind of die. Then another game, we had one team fighting and one team sniping, they were for the most part, on rooftops and covering the area. Yah, you have the kill cam. In the lobby I suggest that maybe we only use one sniper and people whine. I try to explain that I am trying to even it up and after bitching they agree. I have run into this MANY time when I try to even the teams up, people kind of being sour.
Now I love Call of Duty, I love HALO, but I no longer play Halo much because the game play is the same, The people playing are SSSOOOOO good with their combos or sniper, I just don’t enjoy it. Also, it is years old and I am a little burned. I still go play, and when with the right people, it is a BLAST.
Anyway, I digress; quit your bitching about Chromehounds. Come see what we are talking about. Don’t judge it by the story mode, get into a squad with some experienced people and helpful and they will help you learn and build some killer machines and enjoy some great battles.
That is my .02
