Long time fan of the Worms series and despite me and my friends playing Worms Revolution it pains me to see how buggy and lacking in features Revolution seems.
As many before me have pointed out it suffers from alot of frame drops, lagging and camera issues. And while I won't rave about a refund I think it is odd that you offer DLC for the game when it in its original form suffers from all of this.
Even though you had the DLC developed before release, it is still the wrong signals to send to your customers and it says something about your priorities.
Alot lag when damage is dealt. Watch it take of 5 points of your enemy, think that you got an idea of how much damage was dealt? Wrong, wait a couple of more seconds and see the true damage your foe has taken. Is this process really that intense for it to lag?
Camera is a mess, following worms that are falling off a cliff seems to be hard to pull off making you adjust with the right stick, throwing you off for a bit.
Zooming in and out is just as indistinct as the above.
Being a multiplayer game it still baffles me that you can't take local multiplayer online (or am I missing something?). Sitting with a friend locally (passing controller or multiple profiles) and then join a lobby online is something I have been missing in all the "recent" Worms. Want some pointers? Even though it isnt in the same ballpark, but look at how Borderlands 2 does it, flawless.
Water "physics", ehh what, I guess it is intentional, but what is going on with the water. It's like jelly glued to the walls?
Hold any direction in the inventory to navigate faster. Now you have to clickety click...
Alright that's it. Would love to hear some status updates when it comes to these issues. To me they shouldn't exist in a game in 2012 and it is all just a bit frustrating to see and will keep me and many others from buying any DLC released for it (money money money ;)).
EDIT: I got the Xbox 360 version.
