shocks me how many problems exist in other games. Huge levels, massive amounts of detail on everything yet it runs like perfectly, other developers should take lessons from Epic (Bioware, EA...).
There are minor instances of texture pop in, but nowhere near as bad or common as in Mass Effect. Basically for two seconds when a map first loads, you'll see a little of this and then after that zero pop in. It's more noticeable in the character creation screen but even there it's 2 seconds tops when you first choose a character.
Framerate is fixed throughout, and it does look better than Gears and much bigger with lots more effects. Definitely nothing like this game in any other console mp shooter.
I can't say for sure, but it is very likely that this becomes the default multiplayer game for me. A lot better than I expected and I haven't even tried online yet or played more than a few maps and game types. The weapons are crazy, there's even a mini nuke thing...
Will have more impressions as I go.
Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!
