XCOM 2

Igra je fenomenalna. Puno detalja i zarazan gameplay. Sutra ću malo detaljnije dojmove napisati.

Evo ga proveo sam par sati uz igru pa da podijelim s vama što smo dobili.

Počet ću od vizuala i naglasiti da se vidi poboljšanje. Teksture su detaljnije, čišće. Animacije su fluidnije i mape su detaljne, a korištenje različitih boja donosi raznolikosti. Sve skupa čini oku vrlo ugodnu cjelinu.
Zvukovna podloga je odlična, štoviše, iznenadila me ovako dobra podloga. Podsjeća neodoljivo na Mass Effect.
Priča je ok, stvarno ništa posebno, ali to sam i očekivao.
Avenger iliti nova baza je već popunjena tako da nema iskapanja zemlje već neiskorištena područja moramo počisiti od uništenog materijala. Naime, Avenger je prethodno bio alien letjelica koju je pokret otpora zauzeo.
Isto tako, određena istraživanja ili izgradnja mogu biti popraćena inženjerima koji ovaj put nisu samo brojke. Svaki znanstvenik, inženjer i sl. ima svoje ime i svoju funkciju. Npr. dodavanjem inženjera na izgradnju nove sobe, izgradnja će se ubrzati za 50%.
Mapa je detaljnija. Podijeljena je u sektore, po nekoliko sektora po kontinentu. Mislim da se nasumično starta.
Customization je odličan, tu sam puno vremena proveo. Sve customization opcije za vojnika se otključaju kada dođe do čian narednika, do tad ima samo neke. Ima dosta glasova za odabrati vojnicima iako sam razočaran što nema ruskog. Cyka blyat... Nažalost sva lica izgledaju kao dijete Stevena Tylera i Gary Buseya.
A sad o najvažnijem dijelu - gameplay.
Prijašnjim igračima će biti poznat, no dosta je nadograđen. Tu veliku ulogu imaju nove jedinice te prerada klasa od kojih izdvajam Ranger klasu koja ima opciju melee napada. Ono što je veliki plus je što je melee opcija balansirana. Ogroman damage dodjeljuje, može do 10 hp oduzeti ako je critical, ali zato ostavlja vojnika na otvorenom, tako da se mora pametno koristiti.
Okolina se koristi više nego u prethodniku. Sada jedna rupa u zidu može imati ključnu ulogu za krajnji rezultat borbe. Evac se na većini misija može pozvati gdje god želimo tako da se ne moramo povlačiti na početno mjesto misije. Isto tako, uvedena je odlična opcija nošenja suboraca, tako da ako netko krvari, a ne može ga se stabilizirati, može se dozvati evac i izvući ga iz tog područja. Najveći novitet je Concealment ilitiga prikradanje neprijateljima i priređivanje zasjede. Ova opcija ako se pametno koristi može biti vrlo OP. Možete se riješiti gotovo svih neprijatelja u 2 minute ili sve usrati pa imati borbu od 20 minuta. hakiranje je zanimljivo jer pridodaje raznolikost. Tako npr. možemo hakirati tornjeve sa senzorima kako bi ih deaktivirali i proširili područje concealmenta.
Modovi za oružja su lijep dodatak, uvijek dodaju neki sitni perk, ali su i estetski lijepi.
Loša strana igre je optimizacija. Igra ima ogromne padove FPS-a, a igram na 980. Tako da patch se s nestrpljenjem čeka, a ako netko igra i ima problema, neka stavi na FXAA, dobit će ponešto FPS-a.
To je uglavnom to što sam pokupio za sada i to u samo 2-3 sata igre. Veselim se nastavku i kako mi se čini, ocjene od 9 i 9.5 su opravdane, stvarno odlična igra.

Još malo teksta i mogao bi komotno napisati FFA recenziju.

Evo i službenog launch videa za ovu odličnu igru:

Jednog dana bi rado Ali treba meni još iskustva.

Evo ga, odigrao sam još par sati (čitaj 6 sati) i stvarno... Ne mogu prestati. Sindrom 'još jednog poteza' je prisutan. Svaka mapa je različita, novi neprijatelji iskaču. Bugove nisam iskusio, no nekad treba dulje vrijeme da overwatch proradi ako je velik broj unita na istoj mapi, tako da zna malo ubiti dinamiku, no ne događa se često.
Sviđa mi se osjećaj da XCOM polako evoluira iz pokreta otpora u pravu vojnu postrojbu što više toga istražujemo. I da - EXO Skeleton izgleda prokleto badass...

Igra tko na PS4?

Not a lot of outlets have published reviews of this week's XCOM 2 console version release, but here's the few that have, with some quotes on how the game translates to console.

Metro GameCentral 10/10
XCOM 2 is the game that finally destroys the myth that strategy games are any combination of slow, boring, or overly complicated. Well, to be honest the previous XCOM: Enemy Unknown already did that, but XCOM 2 takes the mutilated corpse of the idea and dumps it into an incinerator, hopefully never to be heard of again. In fact, this is one of the best games we’ve ever played and we’re relieved to find it’s just as good on consoles as it was on PC.

The Telegraph 5/5

TrustedReviews 4.5/5
During the run-up to XCOM 2’s initial release, developer Firaxis spoke candidly about its decision to keep it PC-exclusive, saying it felt more comfortable on the platform and explaining how the game’s UI – filled with on-screen information – worked better on a monitor. At the time, there weren’t even any plans to develop controller support for PC. If you’d caught this messaging, you’d be forgiven for feeling cautious about the game’s console port. Luckily, those concerns can be put aside – XCOM 2 on console is still unmissable.

Gamespot 9/10
Now that XCOM 2 has made its way to consoles, these sentiments remain the same. Some technical issues have migrated from this year’s PC release: characters sometimes freeze in place while the turn progresses; soldiers can take almost 10 seconds to execute commands; and cutscenes have a tendency to drop frame rates throughout campaigns. But the layered tactics, impactful meta-game, and deep character-building are all intact on PS4 and Xbox One. XCOM 2 remains a superb strategy title.

Windows Central 4/5

Jako mi je drago. Riječ je o izvrsnom nastavku koji je na PC-u imao početnih problema s bugovima. Srećom nisu bili gamebreaking i moglo se igrati bez problema kad bi se prešlo preko toga.
Eto Solide, topla strateška preporuka kad napraviš upgrade. ;)

Uživao sam u njegovom prethodniku, tako da siguran sam da ću i u ovome kad nabavim grafulju :-).

Odlična je i zarazna igra, već dugo ju pomalo igram na pc jedino malo je preteška za moj ukus...
