Hi there,
I try to play Worms Revolution on PS3 but there are many issues that stand between me... and the fun !
-First of all, the game have major lag problems.
Looks like it's running around 5~10 fps most of the time.
After playing games like Uncharted or God of War on this machine I can't believe it's not smooth on a Worms game.
Even Little Big Planet wich have lots of similar physics interactions is perfectly smooth.
I don't understand why.
-There also an important input lag.
The first time I played the game I wanted to jump, and as it wasn't responding I pushed the button a second time... then the worm did a vertical jump. That's how bad it is, really.
It makes the controls very hard to handle, even more if you try to use the rope, the jetpack, or anything that needs a precise action... like just moving around !
I'm not sure but it seems to get better while playing with the network off.
-The pacing of the game is terrible.
Every action is followed by a pause... wich could be ok if it wasn't so long.
When it comes to the computer's turn, it waits for the countdown to end before it gets the control, and then it just stays in place... doing nothing... after few seconds it starts moving left... right... pauses... and pass his turn !
Then you wait again for the game to react to what just happened (in this case: nothing) and then it's your turn.
It feels like I'm waiting more than I play... and I just get bored... isn't this game supposed to have the exact opposite effect ?
-The new rope item is suprising in the first time.
It allows to climb the edge of a cliff... that's cool !
But every contact with any wall brakes the rope... that's uncool !
-The new jetpack just feels weird.
The vertical reaction is nice but the horizontal one is really stiff.
That makes it even harder to move in a game that is already not moving much.
-I live in France and I'm happy to ear funny french voices in the usual Worms games.
But in Worms Revolution ? it's gone :/
That's a small detail but please take it in consideration if you do a patch for this game.
And by the way... sorry for my bad english. ;)
