Yeah. It was better in the beta, it targeted slightly faster (I think, or that's just me). But now, it's not really that great anymore.Matthi205 said:The smart pistol is not as bad as you'd think it is. It's great for clearing out grunts and spectres, but it's pretty hard to actually do anything against players with. And I certainly found the Carbine easier to use... hell, I even scored more kills when I was using the designated marksman rifle. And what with people moving about the place like paranoid flies on speed, my best guess is that the smart pistol ain't that great.
Nope, Bomberman for the Xbox 360, I shit you not.The_Darkness said:So... who's the gritty reboot Iron Man-lookalike supposed to be? Or is that just "Arbitrary Gritty Reboot No. 212"?
Also, the Smart Pistol sounds like a decent weapon for people less used to shooters, since as Matthi205 said, it's less easy to use it against players (what with a lock-on, charge-up time) but works well against the AI grunts. It's a way of letting newer players get a hook into the game without immediately getting wiped out by everyone else. Which is good, isn't it?

Look at that monstrosity! Did they really think that fans of the game were gonna go for that...thing?
The iron-man look alike is the reboot failure Bomberman: Act Zero. It was X-box's realistic gritty reboot of the bomberman series that was terrible.The_Darkness said:So... who's the gritty reboot Iron Man-lookalike supposed to be? Or is that just "Arbitrary Gritty Reboot No. 212"?

That image just made me extremely angry. Bomberman was a huge part of my childhood, and this... this monstrosity is not him. Fuck Konami. I'm glad that game got beaten to death by reviewers back in 2006.otakon17 said:Nope, Bomberman for the Xbox 360, I shit you not.The_Darkness said:So... who's the gritty reboot Iron Man-lookalike supposed to be?

OT: The Smart Pistol from what I've seen of it has limited range and ammunition and has a lock-on time so it's not really a bullshit weapon. However, Seekers from Dark Souls are pretty overpowered from what I've seen.
You had to say it, i shall now post a video.otakon17 said:OT: The Smart Pistol from what I've seen of it has limited range and ammunition and has a lock-on time so it's not really a bullshit weapon. However, Seekers from Dark Souls are pretty overpowered from what I've seen.
How can a terrible weapon that pretty much won't kill any player, good for "letting newer players get a hook into the game"? Also, no, I don't think casualizing your game for an inexperienced fanbase is good. They are the ones who should learn and get good at playing it, not the other way around.The_Darkness said:It's a way of letting newer players get a hook into the game without immediately getting wiped out by everyone else.
