[RANT] Don't buy Worms World Party

[Killbat]

I just bought this game for $30, and "upgrading" from Worms: Armageddon I was expecting:

1. New, better interface, where I could enter my own values instead of choosing from a short list
2. Slick new weapons
3. Faster graphics engine, hopefully with better than 256 colors
4. Several new game modes and special rules
5. Improved in-game utilities (map editting)

Instead, I got:

1. Exact duplicate of the W:A interface, with different logos and backgrounds
2. Exact duplicate of the W:A weapon system
3. Exact duplicate of the W:A engine
4. One additional game style: "fort mode"
5. Exact duplicate of the W:A editor

Additionally, I had to download a 5MB patch to play online, where I found only the UK server available, with a whopping 3 people online. Damnit Team17, you will never get another dime out of me you bastards. :|

but you gotta admit, WA was a fun game.

Worms 2 was a fun game. What a shame Team17 hasn't developed it further. :| W:A is simply Worms 2 with a functional interface.

Thats too bad, I was looking forward to that game. I played Worms 2 at school a lot, and it was a gas, too bad this new game doesn't look the same.

..um, Ok.









What can I say? I am easily swayed.
