So far this is my biggest gripe. On the fish tank level you're a fucking SITTING DUCK if you jump. You can't shoot and you're a big ass target.
Respawning is instant. Cap the flag? Kill everyone? They'e all already back at the flag ready to run out and greet you.
5V5, maps are too fucking big. Third person camera is biased to the right and can't be switched. Makes it difficult to properly check left corners. Refunding it ASAP.

The difference is those games came out years ago.
It's not the early 2000's anymore. There is absolutely no reason to limit shooting when you are jumping.
I've played 5 matches. Sadly, not impressed. The Army Men games were some of my favorites, and I'll give this game credit for trying, but the shooting just isn't very good. Feels unresponsive, I think there's bad netcode because hits definitely don't register a lot of the time. Also, 5v5 was an awful choice because the maps are fucking massive. I think I might refund ;_;
>>319433535
those aren't live stats you know.. those were the stats before it was even released
>>319434324
Same. Also fuck no shooting while jumping.
>>319434107
It's honestly necessary, the maps are very vertical so you spend a lot of time jumping and falling. The freezer map and aquarium especially. It's a bad design choice here, no question.

>>319435119

It's not their money, it's mine, and I was more happy to give it them for a new Army Men game. I've been waiting for one for like 13 years. But, now that I've played it, I'm not satisfied at all. It's quite frankly just not very good. They had to earn my money and they haven't.

Users shouldn't be held accountable for a game being bad. That's all on the dev.
>>319437867
Kitchen map is kind of cool, since you have to rappel down from the shelves to the countertops.
Looks like a generic third person shooter on a Rats map but it seems okay I'll probably get it in a humble bundle or when it goes on sale for cheap
>>319437763
same we had 6 vs 7 for a while
>>319437943
This game has some jank though. You can't shoot while jumping, so this fucks the aquarium level pretty hard. The default is 5v5 which is too small for these maps.
They also give you every weapon from the start, which isn't necessarily bad, but could have been made more intricate had they put time into a class system instead.
Overall, it runs really well and looks nice. For $10 you have to be poor to complain, but it could have been so much more.
>>319438163
Also some form of reflections confirmed
>>319438163

>go to subway
>buy a sub and eat it
>go back to them and ask for a refund
thats how retarded you sound
I really want to love this game, Army Men needs to be a thing again and the maps are all quite cool. The graphics are pretty good and it seems to run well. I give the devs credit for the creative objectives and gimmicks in many of them (unfreeze the dinosaur in the freezer, the foosball map, rubber ducky boats in the tub, etc). But the execution is just so poor. Bad hit detection, bad netcode, poorly implemented shooting mechanics in general, maps are way too big for 5v5, not being able to shoot while jumping, having every weapon by default but ammo is on a cooldown instead of picking it up on the map, health regen, etc. I'm on the fence about keeping it to see if the devs improve it or just refunding. $10 isn't much, but the game needs work and I have a feeling it will be dead in a week or two which would make keeping it pointless.
Also, if this guy >>319437136 is one of the devs, I don't want to support this kind of attitude and behavior.

There's a 2-hour limit on refunds, you are not consuming the whole product in that time, you're trying it out.
Be sure to share your criticism of the game on the discussion page so the dev can see them
why
is it class based or you just pick your guns
>>319438912
This. The complaints about the player limit can be fixed, but you must go to the steam forums and let the devs know about the combat issues. Then this game can truly be great.
>>319439009
Everyone has everything
for those on the fence on whether to get this game, what do?
I can see its quite janky but I'm willing to overlook it because who cares about it unless its fun?

No classes, all weapons from the start of your life.

Its 10 bucks and you can always refund it. However, make it be known about problems on the forums, so the devs can hopefully fix them.

Played two rounds, the fishtank CTF and the Foosball table. The lack of jump shooting kind of sucks but it's really forgivable. I think it's pretty fun and it looks nice, I'm gonna play a little more later when there's more players, this could be pretty fun to play with /v/.
I fucking love the music and visuals
>15v15 on this stream right now

>>319439602
>/v/ recognised me
But be serious for a minute, you get snipers on spawn and spawn near instantly, I figure moving under overwatch would be appropriate for a fun but tactical shooter.
Also under the assumption what was said before that Army Men doesn't allow it makes it authentic.
>>319441005
I'm not disagreeing with you about the respawn time, but why should we care about authenticity over fun in a silly game like this?
>>319441195
Because no penalty for hopping around everywhere is anti-fun. As in, games you couldn't jump at all where frankly more fun than ones where you can jump high enough to dodge attacks easily. Also consequence free rocket barrage from behind cover seems lame.

Nothing that the devs tweaking the game can't fix with feedback from the community. Am I missing anything?
>>319441537
>Am I missing anything?
Con: 5v5
>>319441417
That wold be fine if 2 maps weren't vertical and one map gave you superjumps
>>319441417
That's all well and good, but from what I've read and seen so far the maps have a lot of verticality to them. If we can't shoot while jumping, why design maps with so much height to them? Just seems kinda silly to me. Maybe instead of not allowing us to shoot while in the air, give us some other kind of handicap while we're jumping. I really want to buy this game, but I feel like that aspect would really begin to irritate me after a while.
That's just my opinion though. I haven't played it yet, so I suppose I don't have much ground to stand on.
>50 people in one server
>>319441537
Shotguns are currently OP and everyone is using them almost exclusively.
I might buy it just for the fact that there aren't enough games where you are tiny.
>>319441417
>>319441763
Why not just make it so you can't use the sniper or bazooka while jumping and you can't aim with the other weapons while jumping. Maybe increase spread a bit, but not being able to shoot at all while in the air is kind of a bummer for me right now. I'd LOVE to get the game, but I'd liker larger playercounts than 5v5 and the ability to shoot while jumping at least.
Game is a lot of fun but some maps are a mindless death match because there is only one small corridoor to the objective so they pretty much always end in a stalemate. Also I'm not sure what to think about the fact that every player has every gun at the same time.
Can I run it on a toaster?
>>319441693
One map, the birthday cake, doesn't let you see the enemy half of the map unless you're dominating on all sides, but you should be able to assault the cake on multiple sides. The jump is also right by the edge of the cake instead of requiring you to jump multiple times, so there's no reason to jump around.
Bazooka should have a universal cooldown of 2/3 minutes.
>devs are saying in the Steam forum that it's too hard to add AI bots to the game

Reminder that you comment your complaint in their forum and steam just so you don't have developers think that the TF2 faggots that want hat and cosmetic bullshit is the majority
>>319442278
Serious question here. Besides being useful for when the player base inevitably dies, what use is there for bots in multiplayer games?
>>319442063
right, also make the stamina more useful. Currently if you are out of stam, you can still sprint, roll, and jump just at a slightly slower pace. Make it so you cant do those things if you are out. That way, stam also becomes a resource to preserve.
>>319442458
Filling up a server to play with a couple friends?
>>319442526
I suppose. Maybe it's just me but if I was going to jump into a multiplayer game with some friends, I'd rather have other real people playing as opposed to mindless bots.
I'm way out of the loop, is this a multiplayer game based on the Army Men franchise?
>>319442754
It's a multiplayer third-person shooter with toy soldiers, so pretty much.
