Menchise Posted January 31, 2002 Report Posted January 31, 2002 I don't get it. The review text seems to pan the game, yet the final rating is 72. *shrugs shoulders*
Guest Grayfox Posted January 31, 2002 Report Posted January 31, 2002 its almost like he seems to contradict himself... :the game is good because its deep and complex, but its also bad because its deep and complex" ??? what does that mean? i would think its quite obvious this aint for the average joe flight/space sim, but why the contradictions? and he did it throughout most of the review... i dunno, the angle of my forehead prevents me from pondering such things.

R_wilco Posted January 31, 2002 Report Posted January 31, 2002 After reading the review, it looks like he wrote it as he was playing, first being all excited, eventualy talking about the bugs, problems, things he didn't like... quote:Take for example the option to look up and down. The FPS mode does not include one. To look in those directions you have to switch to an entirely different top view. It's on the reference card... quote:Surprisingly though, all the work put into creating the BCM world didn't stop the game's creators from not wrapping it around any plot or guiding storyThat's really more of a half-truth IMO... quote:As long as you don’t badmouth Derek or the games, of course. If you opt to do so we’re not responsible for what might happen. Well.... quote:THE VERDICT: 72I don't get it either.
Guest Hellbinder[CE] Posted February 1, 2002 Report Posted February 1, 2002 That comment about FPS mode is really silly. The "swivel neck" as I like to call it is one of the single coolest FPS additions I have ever seen. IMO its way ahead of Quake/UT in concept.

hazzig Posted February 1, 2002 Report Posted February 1, 2002 Reading the beginning of the review, about the release of BC3000AD, and the buisness with Take 2, a sentence from a Beatles song came to my mind "boy, you gonna carry that weight for a long time". Every review I┬┤ve read so far begins the same, with a history lesson of previous releases. I don┬┤t see what that got to do with a review about BCM. Don┬┤t know how many patches he is gonna d/l, since he needs only one, but given the hours he is gonna spend, it must be quite a few.
