    Looks quite cool!

    My boss told me that he met some of you guys from FS and tried Lead and gold recently. (At GDC?)
    He said it was a fun game and really enjoyed that you can shoot of the hat of people :)

    I have to wait for the next salary before I can try it out myself thogh.

    Might have to pick this up! Reminds me of Outlaws in the best possible way.

    You guys have a western inspired soundtrack?

    Great stuff, is this like an action MMO? Will there be cross-platform play?

    I must say that these threads are most tempting towards buying such games, even if you have planned your "TO BUY LIST." It also puts your mind off the studies and on the video game(s)

    But its a nice game "from the looks of it" thanks for sharing. :)

    Right, it's a great game. This is gonna be the game that I'll play when I have 30 minutes for myself I think.

    HOWEVER! I've got some stuff I'd like to see (personal preference)

    - Laptop bluescreened because it overheated. This is a gaming laptop that can run crysis just fine :(
    - The large white dot in the middle of the screen. This thing PISSES ME OFF, let me choose to get rid of it (I know where the center of my screen is), or give me an option to make it a tiny dot, even though I know that it won't be accurate. It realy blocks my view, I just hate it.
    - Is there an option to play it windowed? I always play my games windowed. (EDIT: Found it on the steam forums, but why not a simple checkbox in the options menu? Now I have to edit xml :( )
    - More graphical options, I want the best FPS I can get, I'll probably disable all fancy effects, play it with low res textures, no normal maps... this is a game that I want to play because it's fun, I don't care how it looks.

    So pixelgoat I don't know if you can do anything about that but I'd appreciate it alot, with those tweaks it would really be a game I'd play frequently when I have some time. Hell it will probably replace my one hour of counterstrike everyday if I have a decent FPS and play it windowed.


    Good points:
    - The game is alot of fun, cool classes.
    - FANTASTIC animations.
    - FAST loading times! Woo!

    Thanks for reading :)

    Just bought it and played for a few minutes; I really like it :D I didnt have any problems playing; quick download, fast install, quick to get in-game! That alone has made it a much better experience than most games in recent memory :P

    It's using the diesel engine, previously used in the bionic commando games.

    Graphic options are in the works, so you will be able to customize your settins some soon :) cant do much about the crosshair as it is not my field. But I will forward all the feedback! :)



    Glad you all like it! Makes me a happy panda :)
