game seems pretty balanced to me. I do about the same with each class.
At first I thought the scout was overpowered, but u learn how to spot them and to keep them off u.

Yeah, they are not too hard to avoid and shoot down.

The biggest problem I have with this game is when a team gets 4 or more mages. Those guys synergize WELL with each other. They can rotate shock waves, keep each other near full health at all time. Be immune to all ranged attacks while healing and since allies don't feel the pain from the ring of fire. Everything that gets in melee range burns to death from 4 ring of fires.

But luckily, not TOO many people can coordinate with each other to make that a very feasible tactic on a constant basis.



Why must JRPG female leads suck so bad?

I like to use the warrior. I use my axe to keep people away then use the fire attack where you fly towards them with fire behind you then use the fire whirlwind.

They almost never publish a game's reviews before the release date--why would this be any different?

 

Are you serious? There is a killzone 2 review that's been out for awhile and the game comes out at the end of next month.  Street Fighter IV has a review out and comes out Feb. 17th.   Most games have reviews come out before it is released to build hype.

yes i really liked the demo but one thing that annoyed me is that the archer seemed overpowered and the scout underpowered- maybe it was just me, but iwas really hard to assasinate a moving person when being invisible as a scout- other people wre just fine! but im hoping this gets gd reviewsbecause i will probs buy it!

 

Scouts are underpowered when pigs fly. If someone knows how to use a scout well, they will annihilate every mage and archer on the battlefield without even breaking a sweat. Heck, they are the only class that can 1 shot a hero.

 

I believe a fireshot to the head is also a one-shot kill, and of course the trolls/ents, Gandalf, Balrog, and Witch King can do it.

I played the two towers and return of the king on ps2 (they were excellent!) and I am really looking forward to probably buying this game soon, however i noiticed a distinct lack of reviews even though the game comes out on 13th of January for usa and 16th for europe. Any reasons for this? Is it just a coincidence or a bad omen? Discuss!

 

 

 

I have the same fear as you do. I played the demo and was pleasantly surprised at how good the multiplayer online was, but when I checked for reviews I found nothing.  I've been waiting for several days and came on this forum to inquire as you did.

Also, there are a few bugs it would seem. In-game XMB attempts have caused the game to stop working (can't regain control of the game) twice, and Trolls/Ents seems to require some wiggling to get over fences. Those problems perhaps don't bode wel for a game coming out in 2 days, but we'll see...oh, 1 day now if you are past midnight.
