The story is decent but the actual gameplay is horribly repetitive and drags on forever. All the stuff they hyped like the Great White is nowhere to be found and I've never even encountered a single instance of being able to use fire to push predators into enemy camps.

All the animals act the same. They wander aimlessly and do nothing but charge at you once agitated. They never actually flank when they're in packs or anything.

A lot of mechanics can also be abused like using boats to kill sharks so there's zero danger to you and the silenced sniper rifle and bow are completely OP. You could say "Well don't use them then!" but stealth gives you the maximum amount of XP so if you don't want to earn skills slow as **** you need to use them.

The XP issue could have been rectified if they didn't pool all the XP together for all trees. If they forced you to use certain styles and weren't just like "LOL STEALTH IN OUTPOSTS XP XP XP!" then it'd encourage variety, but the game failed to do this probably out of fear of making players feel like they're restricted when it ironically happened anyway.

The co-op is a shallow shooting gallery and the MP is a laggy mess with crap matchmaking. And no my internet doesn't suck so don't even go there.

Forget to mention that the crafting is more or less pointless because it's pathetically easy and I got practically everything before I even did 4 story missions and loot was an entirely wasted idea.

These people are meat virgins. They'll be taken by the grill and delicately and tenderly be shown the ways of flavorful meat love. The first time is beautiful.

After you defeat the Queen you are transported to a lake. It's just a lake. You now have to walk back to town. -OM

Sorry. I honestly tried lying to myself and saying "It's really not like this, you're just tired or something" but damn, it really is.

Well if you stealth an outpost you get 1500xp. But if you go all guns blazing then more enemies come, giving you a chance to also get more xp.

What would you consider a good game TC?

I will point out several problems with it, over exaggerate them to make them sound game breaking, and follow up with saying the game isn't that great.

Hey dude, some people just don't like certain games. I am sure somebody hates your favorite game with a passion. Can't please everyone. I do agree with some things OP is saying, and for that he gets the golden star for the day.

Then TC needs to set up his tent at the Black Ops 2 board, and never come back here again. He's said his feelings already. Go play something else thats better for him.

TC is right in this aspect: the game kinda forces you to go stealth. And I love stealth, but the XP system ruined it.

Relax, it's just a game.
