I haven't tried out multiplayer but chances are the host was really bad.
I'm hoping that's the case. Going to give it another shot later on tonight.Quote:

The game mechanics suck so that if you blow your money and ammo and don't make it, it's pretty hard to get a descent supply of aid kits and ammo to try again.
If you take 3 years to release a sequel, it should have some new graphics/game mechanics.
Why?
You are going back to Rapture, I for one am very happy they didn't jump the shark and stuck to the old story line and expanded on it.
Things I don't like are...
The Wide Screen FOV debacle
The crappy textures, close up the game looks worse than the original
And how it seems to be a lot shorter than the first game, but I'm not finished so I really can't comment on that with authority.
And that's it.
Things I love are...
The great new weapons and plasmids
The very well done story line
How much fun it is to be a big daddy and carry around a little sister and protect her from waves of slicers. When I find a adam "angel" I always spend time setting up turrets, mines and electric cables and then let the splicer horde wash over me.
The new hacking tools and mini-game
I wasn't gonna play BS2 becoz it looked like crap in EyeFinity mode, the image looked magnified. I searched around and found an FOV fix from default of 70/75 to 130, looks so much better. Though I've read of some having issues with the game, it runs pretty good for me w/o crash or lag.
In terms of new game play mechanics, I found BS2 to be a big improvement on the original. You can now dual wield a plasmid and weapon, traps play a much larger role, there are more environmental "dangers", hacking has been completely redone, and little sisters play a more prominent role with game progression and plot choices.Quote:

noworries: I just completed that level ten minutes ago. Harvesting that second body was really difficult! I kept on dying and dying, and the splicers managed to destroy the health station AND the turret, so I was at my wits end at some point. After a while I had no choice but to proceed through the map. Luckily I found enough money to buy 2 health packs, so I returned and finally managed to whack all the splicers and get the ADAM. It was extremely challenging though.
Game just crashed on me when loading Dionysus Park. =/
So far, I've just reached Amusement Park to get the flame plasmid, no issue whatsoever. Been over at Steam forums, seems that many are having lotsa issue, from crashes, to game failing to start, to DRM issue.....happy that things are working out for me thus far.
Same here 0 issues... you have to remember the people with no problems are not the ones who post at the forums, they are too busy playing the game.
And a lot of the DRM and GFWL *****ing is from people who just flat out hate them. I'm not a fan either but as long as I can play the game I'm not going to make a stink over it.
The Steam forums are infested with people that shouldn't be allowed to use a computer, let alone communicate with the outside world.Quote:
