I agree with much of what LukaSlay (above) is saying - the quality of this game looks to be, (after it's all said and done), simply outstanding. However, i feel your pain, and see a lot of where you are coming from. . . . . Developers these days seem to be completely ignorant of the age-old adages "If the shoes fits, wear it", and "no need to reinvent the wheel". If you have a concept / feature of a game that works, one which has been consistently demonstrated to work, and (perhaps most importantly), one which the vast majority of fans have consistently demonstrated high praise for - LEAVE IT IN THE FUCKING GAME AND STOP SCREWING AROUND WITH IT. Don't change it, don't modify it, don't "tweak" it, and certainlt don't omit it. It seems like the modern trend with devs is to modify games according to what is currently popular, "hip" or "trendy", or to just be able to say "hey guys - look what we added in or changed. Aren't we innovative ???" The most glaring recent example of this is Zipper with how bad they TOTALLY FUCKED UP Socom 4. They changed it drastically from the previous titles in the franchise, simply to "cash In" on all the hype and popularity of COD - making it more like them. HUGE mistake, and the fan reviews and subsequent sales are showing it, too. . . . . Bethesda - we LOVE u guys. Nah bro - like, FOR REAL. U guys are awesome. Furthermore, (most of us) understand that there is always room for improvement, and we appreciate all of your massively hard work to bring us this title, and all of your previously released, massively successful titles. Having said that, READ ABOVE. Please don't screw with / modify/ omit stuff that is cool, works well, and the fans greatly appreciate. Thank you.
