Takedown: Red Sabre

I think I'll try to pick this up after I get paid, feedback depending, but it does look nice.

Unless someone objects, I was planning on recording it tonight.

Sure go ahead

I just hope Gamersgate gives me the key today. Bought it from there to get them
blue coins.

Steam's store page doesn't have the counter anymore.

Thought it would be unlocked in an hour.

EDIT: Steam download seems to be enabled. Come on GG, hurry up!

Guys, safe yourself the money and reinstall Raven Shield. It looks the same and plays MUCH better.

I should have listened to my gut feeling and not buy this piece of unfinished software crap. I was blinded by my hopes and dreams for a new tac-shooter and what did I get? "Takedown: Red bugs all over the place including the constant reminder that this game is in alpha stage"

I could have bought Crusader Kings II for the same money somewhere, a game long on my radar... and the idiot I am I wasted it on this!

- MP isn't working at all for no one right now
- Animations and movements appear unrealistic/unauthentic
- Lots of bugs, like clipping errors, sound files not playing, ...
- Questionable "realism" (shoot a target standing and miss, kneel down into a silly pose and turn into a sniper... yeah, sure...
- Dead environment
- AI is among the most ridiculous and stupid known to man
- AI is a clone army (and this in 2013...wow...)
- Game feels "empty". No mission briefings, no nothing.
- Menu/GUI is terrible

No, seriously, this game is utter crap. I hate myself for wasting just a cent on it and I am very close to contact STEAM regarding a refund. Against common believe, refunds do happen sometimes...

What a disappointment

Addendum:
Ok, I finally got into a COOP session and I'm still laughing tears.

Besides the fact that there is no map, or any way to know where anyone is, some guys where chatting in Finnish. Now, Finnish IS a funny language but it gets even more funny when MICROSOFT SAM tries to speak it!!!
I kid you not, if you chat, MS Sam is reading it!

OMG what the hell where those "developers" smoking while creating this pile of junk!?

"Delete Local Content" never(!) felt SO good!

Here we go...

Haven't tried yet, but server browser indeed seems empty.

Gun animations seem fine, apart from there not being a quick/chambered-round reload. Can't say I care about movement animations; not like you see them much from 1PV. Besides, you saw them in the videos. Bit daft to complain about that at this point.

Missing a sound on a reload doesn't constitute "lots of bugs". Which is the only bug I've seen.

Compared to what? R6/GR? You mean the games where you had a cone of fire rather than actual ballistic and recoil modeling? This is a fair bit better in terms to realism than what we usually play.
- Dead environment
It's interactive. Glass can be shot out, displays break, etc. Smaller objects wobble around. Granted, it's not consistent yet; monitors react but keep displaying.
- AI is among the most ridiculous and stupid known to man
They seek cover and react appropriately. I've seen them hug a corner for cover, stay put when pinned down and change position when they have the option.
- AI is a clone army (and this in 2013...wow...)
Expecting a large number of different character models is ridiculous. Especially considering their budget.
- Game feels "empty". No mission briefings, no nothing.
The maps have briefings. Not sure what you're on about. I'd say it's a fair bit better than, say, R6 that just drops you in a server with at most 2 minutes to pick gear and organize before the game starts.
- Menu/GUI is terrible
True. Has to function with a gamepad after all.

I have no idea what you were expecting, but it wasn't realistic. Stating Raven Shield plays and looks better, imho, is ridiculous. TRS improves on both accounts, for example by doing away with cone of fire (when aiming), adding bullet penetration and giving you holographic sights.

What it does painfully lack is a map. As far as I know guys like this don't go in without studying a floor plan.

Gun animations seem fine, apart from there not being a quick/chambered-round reload. Can't say I care about movement animations; not like you see them much from 1PV. Besides, you saw them in the videos. Bit daft to complain about that at this point.

I was referring to the movement animations you see on your buddies or the enemy. Also, I saw those terrible animations first hand ingame, so what are you talking about, in a video?!? And they don't look very life-like to me, not at all.

Which is the only bug I've seen.

Oh excuse me, my mistake. If you just seen this one bug, I must have be dreaming about the others, obviously.

Compared to what? R6/GR? You mean the games where you had a cone of fire rather than actual ballistic and recoil modeling? This is a fair bit better in terms to realism than what we usually play.

Did I say that? Did I mention GR/R6 regarding this matter? Right, I did not.

They seek cover and react appropriately. I've seen them hug a corner for cover, stay put when pinned down and change position when they have the option.

Yeah, totally. Like when they perform their "duck-and-get-up-dance" and yell out loud the same crap over and over and over again, even if it doesn't fit the situation. For example, one of my AI operators got killed, AI tangos yells "we have a man down". And no, they didn't had a single casualty...
Or when they run from point A to point B, back and forth... while those points are being 2m apart...

Expecting a large number of different character models is ridiculous. Especially considering their budget.

Cheap excuse, really. What does it take to vary some skins!? Some Photoshop skills and a few minutes of time. I wasn't demanding 100% unique tangos, so don't act like I did. All I asked for was a bit variety.

Honestly, it seems you are just totally in love with this game and defend it like a true fanboy. If you really like this game, good for you. But don't act like I would completely misjudge this title just because it doesn't match your opinion.

Just a heads up, my Steam account got hacked. Can't access it, so change your PW now.

EDIT: Tried everything but contacting Steam. ****ing great.

EDIT2: And Steam asks for Email and PW which of course doent match.

Surprise!

I'm done, just done. Have a good one everyone.

I've noticed recently with Steam, that I have to log in all the time. Something didn't seem right, so thanks for the HU Dowly, just changed my password with no problems here.

[Oberon]

Changed mine too, just in case.
