Reasons Why the SP IGE doesn't excite me.
After being let down about the lack of MP IGE for FC4, here are some of the reasons I'm not excited about the SP IGE. Please shed some light as to way I should be excited.
1. The A.I will be in the same spots and do the same thing each time I play. Where's the replay value in that?
2. I love escape maps, but playing them by myself? Playing escapes maps with others is what makes them fun.
3. As a map maker, we all like to bring in others while our map is taking shape. Run around your map with others to get ideas. Can't do that now? Yes others can still download it, but it's going to get frustrating trying to explain to the map creator what you're talking about in their map.
4. The A.I were complete morons in FC3, I hope FC4 is different. If not, people will loose interest quickly. Maybe a difficulty setting option will help?
5. What if I only want to look around at someone's map. After all, most of us mappers love to check out each others work. Can we take out the A.I, so we can simple look around? Maybe extraction mode will accomplish this?
My prediction is that the SP IGE maps will have very little replay value and if the A.I don't have half a brain cell, the self-life will be short lived. Feel free to add to my list or add reasons why I should get this game for the SP IGE. I'm already experiencing IGE withdrawls!
