God, that looks EPIC. I freaking love the armor... despite the fact that it looks like a hybrid between GoW, MJOLNIR, Varia, and Elite.
Also, dropping like that would be hella fun.

The gameplay trailer has sold me on it now. Definitely getting this game.
Not to be too Off-topic but the combat totally reminds me of Battle Armor combat in Battletech, especially the Elementals.

!!!WARNING!!!
This game's campaign SUCKS!!!
Through some odd fate, GameStop got all their preorders last Thursday and I was able to pick mine up on Friday. One stipulation was that the multiplayer servers would not be up until the actual release date(tomorrow). I though nothing of that as I figured the campaign would keep me busy until then. I went home, put it in the 360, installed for quicker loading times, and started playing.
3-5 HOURS LATER THE STORY LINE WAS OVER! 5 HOURS!? WTH!?
Not to mention that the few number of hours you did play the campaign, there was very little story if any at all.
Seems they're banking on this being a multiplayer success ONLY as 75% of the achievements are all multiplayer oriented AND the story mode SUCKS BUTT!
I'm sorry, but this is the most disappointed I've been in a game for a long time. I don't even remember the last time I had this reaction to a game.
The truly sad thing is that this game had potential in my eyes. Perhaps that's why this is so disappointing. I'll give the multiplayer a shot until Marvel UA2 comes out. If I'm not satisfied with that alone, I'm trading it back in. First game I've purchased that I've felt the possible need to do so.

That armor is like iron man meets cog meets elite. That'd be one heck of a pep.

i played the demo. the demo itself dissapointed me. only multiplayer.. with bots? well i cant say im really surprised that the campain sucked. reson the multiplayer sucks. your in a huge ass suit and you move like you have a turd in your pants. trailer made the game seem more fast paced awesomeness. not turd in pants my jump is 2 inches and the double jetpack jump has a one story limitation and low battery life? eh. oh well we can make the armor but dont count on it as a big block buster. multiplayer games like this are only trying to remake tribes but it will never be because of the small limitations they put on everything. kinda sad really. multiplayer sucess rate by guessing will not beat the records for halo, cod, gears, vegas, shadowrun.
There was one scene in the campaign where I said to myself, "See, now I wish I was able to do all that stuff IN THE GAME."
I think if there are enough people(32 supposed possible people in dedicated server matches on XBL) that the game will be much faster in feel and play. You'll be constantly defending or assaulting each other's bases and whatnot. It should make for a better experience. That is if people don't get turned off from the game because of both the demo and the storyline.
Either way I'll have to wait until tomorrow to play online.

i hope the online play is good compared to the demo. if it isnt or is really laggy i'd like to know
Seems there is a Horde-like mode in this game called "Swarm". :rolleyes
Could be interesting to play when not playing the multiplayer.
I think lag is going to depend on how good their public servers are and if you know anyone hosting a dedicated server that also has a good connection(I won't be one of them unfortunately).

Just wondering who has played the S8 demo? I downloaded it this morning while I slept and played for a little bit when I got up. The demo is purely multiplayer (the full game does have a single player story mode though). It was a little hard to get used to, but that's probably because i'm used to halo and also I've been playing WoW for the last month or so. It seems pretty fun, it's a game i will definitely consider buying. One downside though is that (in the demo) it's not hosted by servers like Halo, but rather by individuals.

Well to be honest 1.) i didn't know the game was out and even more than that 2.) I did see that thread a day or 2 ago in the top of the forum, saw the ORIGINAL post date of the first post which was back in may. I also knew the thread was inactive for a while so i figured it was just some semi-random necro-post and didn't look at the newest posts.

Well, it's there and the conversation has moved to the game and demo..

I was hoping this game wouldn't suck, but I was thoroughly disappointed by the demo. It really doesn't have enough original ideas (or lag-free multiplayer) to warrant a purchase in my opinion. I thought would be a great success, but it seems it may be true that lesser known games won't ever be as good as their overshadowing counterparts

I do beleive this is what we call in the gaming community. A mirrors Edge Fail game. i say Mirrors edge because it was the same thing. No story what so ever. "EH" gameplay. and so short that you can sing the abc's and be playing the final boss.As for the Multiplayer,i think it did the same thing with army of two somhow making ALL multiplayer server Laggy,boaring and because of that fact 60%EMPTY
