There's a post in the shooting range too but I thought this could do with a home here.

Anyone played this and willing to share their thoughts?

lol, I've seen several posts about this game on various forums, everyone asking what it's like. So far it seems no one has been willing to take a chance and buy it. All we know for sure is that it's french and the translation is a bit weak.

Steam has a few videos you can watch.

Yeah I lashed out and got it. It's actually pretty cool. Char customisation is pretty mad. It's kind of a mix between deus ex and borderlands I suppose. Enemies go down real fast (although I'm not far in to it) but you still have to be a little careful. If they catch you unawares they can beat you down. Snipers are nasty too.

The hacking is kinda cool, frantic mini-game. Just a shame my summoned buddies are terribad at defending me while I hack. You can hack not just turrets and machines, but your enemies too, and they can counter hack you as well! I'm still figuring out some of the effects of hacking...

Got it as well. Took me a little while to figure out how character building worked but I think I'll really like, just need to set aside a decent chunk of time to devote to it.
Anyone interested in some co-op during the week perhaps?

after you have a good bash at the game i'd love to hear some detailed thoughts on it, as im tempted to buy it myself.
Cheers,

I've sunk about 12 hours into it so far, which is good for me with an FPS. I'm really enjoying it. Loving coming back for more! Chardev is great. A lot of options and each is effective in a different way. I've gone for a high mobility sniper/hacker/psycher and he's a lot of fun. I also tested a heavy armour, heavy weapon dude and he was slooow but man you could just wade through everything!! I'm not that far in but my initial feeling that the enemies were too easy is fast wearing off. I had pumped difficulty right up but I've already needed to scale it back a bit.

The maps are great. Large and gloomy, very atmospheric.

The game still lacks a little polish, but apparently the devs have a patch coming up already that should smooth it some.

I'd be rating it 7.5/10 personally. And I feel it's going to get better as I play more.
