Picked it up this morning.

Game is very good! Worth buying and is for one day only 40 bucks at FS and wally world.

Cross between a FPS and a RPG.

Think of it as Fallout Diablo. Multiplayer is low latency so far and very fun. I can see myself playing this game alot

So far I rate it for the first 2 hours as 9/10

I saw a commercial for it the other day and was very interested. I'll have to check out some more gameplay movies tonight.

Off the top of my head i'd like to say the 26th I believe. I don't knwo if they will merge the PC and console servers though. I would prefer not due to the PC versions are more prone to hacker douches that ruin the game.

yeah - when you run pc games, some people feel the need to give themselves an unfair advantage and call themselves a wiener err i mean winner.

totally ruins the online gaming experience for those who truly enjoy it. I mean who really wants to win by cheating, not me. I guess those kids think they are being cool - that still amazes me.

Here's to hoping it stays as is and tards dont bother with it.

Picking it up for the PC on the 26th via steam. Unlikely to be rampant hacking, since it's mainly a coop game.

Besides the controls for driving the cars, this game seems to be pretty solid. What class did everyone start out with?

Vehicles arent bad same concept on the warthog on Halo.

I think it's more of an issue with the environment being so narrow in certain area's compared to halo and the fact that I drive balls out. Either way, the rocket launcher is pretty damn fun. I rolled a solider as well but I never seem to remember to use the special ability. Definitely could have helped me during the first boss fight...
