[Official] Bulletstorm


Recommended Posts

Yeah, same, finished a few days ago and enjoyed it. The story was absolutely horrible, but the gameplay more than made up for it. I plan on going through and beating it on the hardest mode as well as trying out the other modes.

I agree. Story was horrible. I didn't even know if there was a story. :laugh:

Only on my second run through did I realise there's ammo caches at certain points which completely fill up your ammo and charge :fail:

Hah, it took me a few acts to realize what those did. They don't completely fill it up, though, they just give you a small amount of ammo or charges (for some reason it was always for my right-side equipped weapon, too).

I realized that in that on chapter 6 where you rescue the general with sniping target above.

Awesome game so far. Profanity is a bit over the top and doesn't blend into the game well, saying the f-bomb and other obscenities just for the sake of saying them. So far my favorite thing about the game is the gameplay and ways to kill enemies.

No, not the flashing ones.

You know the level that the demo gave? With the lift you can drop onto the skulls? Well right after you walk through the clock hologram there is an amo cache - it fills everything up to max.

Yeah..language is over the top.. too much d*** and "unnecessary" words

If I'm not mistaken, that was one of the selling points of the game. Should've known that going in. Everything about the game is supposed to be OTT.

QTF!

Part of the appeal of the game is how everything is OTT. Fits it perfectly, IMO. One could turn off the language, though.

:blink:

The flashing ones never filled me up completely.

People buying this game then complaining about the content. Jesus wept.

Do you put your hand into flames and complain when you get burned too?

No one minds the language, I sure don't. But there is too many obscenities being shouted that don't seem to correlate with the game, just for the sake of it. A little less over the top and I'd be happier, I don't mind the gameplay though which is an A+ in my book.

hey Jonathan, way to go with the spoiler there! And he ain't supposed to be Chinese..what's next, you're going to call him Chinaman Joe? You must be channeling General Serrano.

and the language is fine, quite well written and witty for a game like this, some of the lines are quite funny. the whole running gag with ###### is pretty good.

If you want less profanity in a game, may I suggest sim city?

No.

At least in Duke Nukem and in Prey the profanity correlates with what is happening in the game, such as performing certain actions. This is just spouting profanity randomly, sometimes for no reason, just to say it. I think this comic sums up the way I and others feel about the game:

So you're a twelve year old girl? That explains it, true.

Trolls.. :rolleyes:

What does your comment have to do with what I posted?

I said I don't mind the profanity, just that it needs to correlate with what is happening in the game, the profanity just doesn't really fit in. I can't think of many games with such overuse of profanity, any profanities used usually correlate with what is happening. There's no reason to get all bitchy and single me out for pointing out a rather minor issue with the game, it's not like I am saying it's a bad game or that it sucks so no need to go on the defense.

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
