difficulty? on Friday, February, 20, 2004 2:42 PM
well, i play the game on normal difficulty but somehow it is still just too much.
example: the one level with the reformat. so i free ma3a, speak to some guy and he tells me to hurry. so i go to the door i didnt have permission for earlier, i still dont have permission and suddenly im dead.
so i try again, and noticed that after a few seconds of speaking to the guy u can speak to him again and again to get the permission for the elevator. so i take that, go upstairs and dont know where to go and die again.
so i try again, go upstairs, i find byte but am killed by the virus guys. so i try again, jump accidently wrong and die again. try again, this time i manage it, byte lowers the forcefield, i rush through it and suddenly am surrounded by more of the virus guys and die again, next try i manage the whole thing. ok, that was bearable.
next lvl is the thing with the 3 email pieces of tron legacy. first fragment is easy to get, 2nd is easy as well but then the third time. i try it a few times and die each time. i urn out of energy so fast with the sniper-rifle-equivalent that i cant kill them all with it, and when i recharge at the globe i die by the ones that still fly around. then i accidently quicksave when im low on life and then i can replay the whole lvl. i mean, ive put 2 armor subroutines on and still die after 3 hits.
so i try the whole thing again, die 10 times more and then do it that way that i shoot at one of the flying gues flying around between the files, step back, kill the one appearing in the sky, kill the one at the stacks and so on and finally manage to do so. after i get the message that all seers or what theyre called are dead, i save. then i go again to the health globe and want to use it up, suddenly im dead again. though i got the message all are dead, there are still a lot flying around. i die 2 more times to the one flying around and then manage to go to the lift and io node. so i think i can relax some, take the lift and suddenly two of the red guys kill me. i load again, change the subroutines, try the beta suffocation thingy but found out that it is really useless in that situation and die again with it. then i switch back to the disc, kill 3 of the red guys, go around a corner and at that moment 2 to 3 of them shoot at me at the same time and im dead again. then i had no nerves to play anymore.
i guess i will try tomorrow again
but to some that up:i do consider that difficulty NOT normal.
normal is imho that the game is not too easy but that you can clo it. at times u die but not often. im not the master of the game, but imho you dont have to be the master of some game to play it right on normal. if u are really good in a game u should play it on hard and have a challenge and some fun, while easy is foor people who didnt play first-person-shooters before and still should be able to do it. so since i play fps since quite a while, but didnt know the game before, i took normal. and i dont expect to die 30 times in a single scene.
so, whatever. just wanted to express here that the guys who made the game should not set the difficulty based on THEIR skill but on that of the one who buys the game.
