ok so - i want impressions. theres been trickle, and with how many people have the beta i need more!!
unless it's so much fun that people are glued to their vitas.
I had to put it down for a bit due to old man hands and them cramping up so I'll give you some very early initial impressions.
The fucking thing looks gorgeous. The lighting is great, good draw distance, I haven't noticed much frame rate dropping only 1 or two times when there were fucktons of shit going down around me. From a technical standpoint I think it's pretty damn solid for a beta.
From a gameplay perspective the controls work how they should though it is a bit awkward to double tap the rear pad or tap O to run. Aiming is all Killzone all the way there is a certain weighty quality to it. I'm sure you know well if you've played the series.
I haven't unlocked any additional classes but I know they are there because I've been getting sniped, blown up with rocket launcher, killed by drones, ect.. I'm pretty terrible at the game and FPS in general but it's got a fun quality to it that I enjoy. It is so rewarding to get that chirp when you get a kill and then go take the dudes valor card or whatever.
I'm not hip on the terminology in the game but Valors must be important because the announcer is constantly going on about them, oh and Vangaurds too. Have no idea what either are. I look forward to playing it some more but this might just be the game that will make me finally go buy some sort of gamepad case for my now naked Vita.
