Mercenaries 2

Started by <-@ST->2 pages

I just started, one thing I have to hate on, I think on nextgen systems people really need to stop using prerendered cutscenes. 😬

How do I get the nuke weapon? I've been playing this game for a while and I still can't find it.

Rented this game, it's meh...I remembered the 1st one being a lot better. Maybe because you were in the middle of a war zone and the introduction was sick nasty. Graphics in this one suck and I'm in Venezuela...wtf? Shooting is pretty crappy imo, and the layout of the land itself looks like crap, I mean just walking around I've seen a lot of crappy looking landscape. The water looks like crap for it. Characters for the most part look like crap. I haven't played much of it yet, but what I have played of it hasn't impressed me.

The good stuff really wears off fast. I was having fun at first, but I already took it back to the video store early.

Can't say I'm surprised...

I found the nuke and it's called a Nuclear Bunker Buster and you have to see what the explosion looks like when you drop it on an oil rig.

Do you like any other Sandbox games or was it just this a bit meh for you ?

I like sandbox games. I liked all the GTA games I played, Ultimate Spider-man, spider-man 2 and the 1st mercenaries game. This one just doesn't appeal to me. I was much more interested in the war torn battlefield in Mercenaries 1.

Interesting article for anyone interested in the PS2 version of the game....

Pretty good game. Getting kinda easy though.

Been looking at all the bad reviews and people hating on this title but i cant help but like the idea of having my own base and the ability to use tanks, attack choppers and call in mass destruction while gaining oil and resources like that across a large world.

Is it really just a nice "sounding" game thats actually horrific or perhaps its "good" with glitches but not as bad as people make it sound.
