is starhawk really that good?

It is a very good game. The multiplayer is unlike anything I've played before. The only thing I can compare it to is Battlefield 3, except you can build whatever buildings you want to help defend you team as well as help the offensive. It's very addicting


i played the beta and it was pretty good but i didnt update the beta and recieve the extra contenet they added later (i guess tanks?) because it was a 1 GB download so i just ignored it. the biggest grip though with the multiplayer is that it didnt seem to offer any unlocks and stuff like that, kinda feels im playing without a purpose if you know what i mean. also how is the single player? (i really dont expect a great story from it so i wont mind of it doest)

Yeah, there aren't very many unlocks and customizations, mostly just "skills" (think perks from CoD) and customization of how your character appears, clothes and the like. Not much customization at all, if that's what you're looking for. Most of the customization takes place in-game with how your team decides to build its structures.

The single player is decent, but definitely not why you would buy the game. Its a bit short. 6 or 7 hours I think. There was barely much of a story. I definitely bought the game for the multiplayer. The single player was nothing compared to multiplayer.


ohh yeah im definitely not buying it for the single player, but its nice to have it their and 6/7 hours is good for a multiplayer focused game i guess much better than killzone 3's 4 hour campain. hmm the lack of many unlocks bothers me actually as i do like to feel im "accomplishing" something. but the thing i do like about this game is that every match feels much different from the other (thanks to changing spawn sites and all the RTS ellements) which is something i really love. the only multiplayer i played that felt like that was killzone 2 (also because of the changing spawn sites) seriously thanks for the reply and im probably gonna pick this up ones i get some cash, maybe we could play together?
