Bodycount

[GamerPerfection]

DS asked me in my "Ask the Gamer" thread which game I had the biggest rage quit with. Well my answer was Bodycount. Although I quit many times in rage I managed to see it through to the end.
 
If anyone has played Bodycount i'd like to know if you agree with me on the difficulty of this game.
 
But there were two parts of the game where after dieing over and over and over again I just had to stop, count to 10000000, then think of a strategy. This is not something I normally find myself having to do on a game.
 
The first strategy I found myself doing was to hide....... yup that's right hide! I had to activate a machine and then survive a wave of enemies until a certain amount of time had passed. To be fair the enemy AI's were pretty dumb staring at walls, but hey it helped me get past. Check out my video of the gameplay. The video should start at 6:18 which is where the fight scene is (including my preparation for the scene).

My second strategy later on in the game was not to hide, but was to run, and run, and run, and.......... run! I had to activate yet another machine and survive waves of enemies for a certain amount of time. With little places to find shelter or to hide behind I found myself way too exposed. So I thought about it for a while and decided to give a try to running around the room in circles until the time had passed hoping that the enemies wouldn't be able to shoot a moving target...... check it out.....

Those were the two main bits of the game that made me rage quit several times. I swear I nearly burst a blood vessel several times.

nice throw on that grenade on that final self destruct code

Looks like a fun game, I can see where that would lead to rage moments.

I did enjoy the game, but it think it's more because I managed to complete it when it was a particularly hard and frustrating game. Many people have thanked me for my two tactics in my videos so i'm sure many others found it too hard.

But the game itself is not great. It has had a lot of negative reviews and not many positive ones. One of the biggest issues for me was that aiming wasn't great at all. But personally I think it's one of those FPS games where you shouldn't expect the quality like you would with CoD or Battlefield. Everytime a new FPS comes out everyone expects it to be such quality and are annoyed when they find it isn't.

I'll give this game the benefit of the doubt. If I still had the game i'd hoover up the last 12 achievements.
