Games been abandoned, overrun with cheaters but was fun otherwise. The same cheaters have been doing the same thing for months and I'm talking dozens of grenades thrown at you, respawning everyone on the map, speed hacks, noclipping etc so its not just your casual aimbot but literal round ending cheats.

I use the napalm strike so I can pretend I'm in vietnam

It took a minute for me to muster the courage to give the game a try and truthfully, I'm not disappointed. I've always been a killer main on DbD and Evil Dead so naturally I tried to focus on the ghosts more and I love the variety you get with the ghosts.

I've enjoyed the ghost gameplay quite thoroughly but unfortunately this game suffers the same fate as Friday the 13th, by locking busters or ghost to a 'preference' rather then a team like Evil Dead and DbD. In turn this leads to alot of quits because people just want to play a buster or ghost leaving only a bot with the brains of a rock. Once the player base gets smaller the game may be doomed by this simple lack of a feature alone as more and more people will quit to get their role leaving their teammates with bots which in turn makes the game not as fun. Its a ripple effect that can crash into a wave leaving the game to burn, and I do hope the developers realize this and adjust it.

Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed is a 4v1 game mode where 4 players attempt to capture a ghost that tries to flee them and haunt the building they are, though sometimes the ghost can fight back. The only way for the ghost to win is by fully haunting the building (its not as hard as one may think) while keeping their rifts alive which are essential their lives. Rifts are hidden in objects or exposed to create drudges that help out a bit but its far better to keep them hidden.

Tons of potential, graphics are awesome - buuuuut this is a super pre-alpha and I'm glad they kind of released it but I also wish they waited a bit. Balance is extremely poor, AI is dumber then a rock and honestly you can just rush the start of the game and win. Especially against aliens.

Overall could be enjoyable but the second one team has even the slightest advantage its over - even its just a single tiered up vehicle.

Before I start I must say that H&G is on the list of one of my most favorite games and I will forever love this game, but like many others I can no longer recommend it until it is fixed which I pray will be some day as I do not wish to see it go under.

My review is based around the latest update with Armor (tanks) and will be focused around that due to the fact that I have over 100+ hours of purely tanking (mainly in the stand alone client.). So to begin the latest armor update has both improved and ruined being a tanker and heres why, lets start with how it improves the gameplay of tankers:

The first and primary improvement to note is that the combat between tankers is a more realistic and slightly more enjoyable, this is made possible by the damage change between tanks where as damage is inflicted primarily by shooting components placed strategically within the tanks.

The second improvement is that there are more matches for heavy tanks and the like, previously it would take up to 20 minutes+ to play inside of the heavy tank tier but was reduced to about 5 minutes which is a great improvement.

Now with that being said there weren't too many improvements made with the update so lets get to the negatives.

There is also a major flaw within the component damage system and that is that the damage is practically completely RNG now with some skill based aiming, example: a Tiger I can shoot a motorcycle and do relatively low damage to it and the driver can continue using it, same with jeeps even though its a heavy tank firing an AP shell into a vehicle with literally no armor?

Secondly tanks are both invincible and paper and to explain that in the best way I can, tanks now take up to 8+ AP shells to destroy if you don't hit components which you may be thinking "hey thats not too bad" buuuut that also explaining that this applies to /every single tank/ such as a Hellcat, a paper tank with literally no armor is as tanky as a German Panther but has 10x more mobility because logic.

And thirdly the combat is actually garbage if played right, the easiest way to win Armor vs Armor is to aim for the gun turret and track, if you do that then 1. they can no longer move unless they get out and repair and 2. they can no longer shoot because their turret is broken so when they fire their shells have a crazy insane drop which will leave you both immobile and unable to defend yourself. if you knock those 2 things out you basically win unless they get out and repair in which case their tank is immortal unless they are killed while repairing.

Honestly theres alot to go on about this tank update and how illogical it is but I'm not going to type it all up, they literally only need to change a few things and the update would probably be alot more enjoyable but I highly doubt any of that will happen, I will continue to play H&G until the community gives out which could very well be soon at the rate it is going,

I understand why people don't leave their abusive relationships now.

The same creator of this game made Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing...

http://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/big-rigs-over-the-road-racing

a metascore of 8 while this one has 20...I think they gave extra points for not giving up.


oh yeah can't forget that on the first week of release some one was streaming the game with hacks and owning every one. wasn't even banned...point of the story = watching a hacker play the game is funner then playing the game itself.

Don't have many hours but I'm enjoying the game greatly its VERY FUN I'd recommend it but at a lower price...

Why? Because FROM SOFTWARE are scammers you have to pay $30 for a DX11 & 64 bit version it literally adds nothing new. just changes a few things honestly no one should buy scholars of a first sin the only thing its done is split up the already thinning playerbase thanks to it theres a lack of summoning signs maybe theres more in scholars of a first sin? I wont know because I'm not dishing out $30 for an "upgrade"

My playtime should tell you I've played enough to know what I'm talking about.

So netcode is still really dumb... I've got alot of hours in and met some awesome people on a no KoS server but the game has far to many trolls that just want to destroy your crest and deconstruct your home.

• I got permabanned for putting an admins friend into my pillory and he started ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
  
  
• Every one raids when you're asleep,at work or at school and theres NOTHING you can do about it you can triple layer your walls but a trebuchet is so broken no block matters.
  
  
• Every one thinks they are really good (lol.)
  
  
• They failed to add a working ban system you can literally do one thing to instantly get unbanned from every server ( not gonna say how.)
  
  
• Hackers have increased ten fold with incredibly disturbing hacks such as teleport,item spawning, godmode, one hit kill, noclip & invisibility theres probably more but those are the few I saw.
  
  Edit: So they fixed it so you can longer use a pirated copy and play online YES THAT WAS POSSIBLE. review remains the same.
  
  I do enjoy the combat the reason being is that its simple ANYONE could do it as long as no one finds exploits on how to kill some one quickly or they change the combat to chivalry I think it'll be good.
  
  Edit #2: So I haven't played recently and probably won't especially from what I hear on how the hackers have gotten even worse...if you truly wish to know how bad ill tell you that a source code has been released that allows hackers TO ACCESS ADMIN COMMANDS obviously not all admin commands are usable but some primarily a "Give all" command that allows the admin to give himself EVERYTHING in the game + 1k of it even the ability to spawn NPC's.
  
  Hackers can teleport people into the sky and cage them thats apparently a thing now and have ACCESS TO WIPE INVENTORIES? WTF? isn't that serverside? damn.
  Gameplay I'm sure is still the same, work hard & spend hours only for a hacker to come on and you guessed it. or you go to sleep after spending maybe 12 hours with a friend grinding and building a glorious base to wake up dead & your base no longer being there (they destroy your crest and place their own which gives access to pick up the blocks you placed down.)
  
  Characters are still trolly and abused alot of people make the dumbest character which surprisingly abuses the hitbox from what I'm aware small people are harder to hit but have a smaller weapon reach however small people with large arms MAY have long reach? honestly I don't see why this effects the hitbox...so if this tells you anything it means people are going to abuse every game mechanic possible to win.
  
  BE WARNED THE ONLY SAFE HAVENS ARE HIGHLY CONTROLLED COMMUNITIES GOVERNED BY A LARGE QUANTITY OF ADMINS MAINLY THE ONES THAT DEDICATE 100% OF THEIR TIME TO BEING ON. (I've only seen this on an RP server which I'm very interested in to see how it works.)
  
  (more edits coming otherwise its still a fun game just filled with douches,cheaters & poor netcode.)
