Vampire Patch Plans

German sites Gamesweb and PC Games Online (thanks zerra) each have word (in German) that plans are in place for a patch for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, addressing performance issues and other glitches in Troika's Source-engine Vampire RPG. No release schedule for the patch is projected at this time.

If you want to start showing scores now your getting a little to involved but heh here you go.

Gameplay: 8.7
The game is fraught with load times which can interrupt the flow, and while the whole game is rather large, some of the zones can seem rather small.



Graphics: 8.9
The game has a few graphical glitches, but generally sports some of the best environments seen in one of these games. The animation is also very good.



Sound: 9.1
The sound effects propel this game very nicely. The voice acting is very good and the music is excellent.



Difficulty: Medium
The puzzles are relatively minor and with the ability to save at virtually any spot, you will be able to save before key moments of difficulty and then replay without having to start from further back in the level.



Concept: 9.2
The world is described as Gothic-punk, but it seethes with essentially the underbelly of everything vile one could imagine. It seems only natural that in such a setting, a vampire would emerge the hero. The developers did a great job of allowing players to tailor their experience through clan selection and character advancement. The interface is also easy to use.



Overall: 9.0
From downright creepy to challenging, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines has an immersive story and maintains a foreboding tone throughout. There may be a few graphical glitches, and the story is linear, regardless of the approach afforded by the different clans, but this is a solid addition to the Vampire series. The game looks good, and the sound really does a superlative job of underscoring the graphical tone of the game.


Umm heres another one whos not screaming and kicking about the combat,

Im telling you combat is one of the better aspects of the game for me at least and the AI works as it should.

Oh i guess all the beta testers and ppl who tried the combat and approved it must think like me , which is why im enjoying it and youre not.

And are you not only repeating what i say to you then you try to come back on with a attitude and tell me the same thing lol, bah your a real looser who cant even blink unless someone says its a good thing to do cause it will keep your eyes moist, yeah yeah thats the type of person you are a spinless jellyfish. get a fking life and get over it your never gonna like Vampire and the combat is so marred cause of your inexperience and BOOMING IQ, that you are the type of slide rule guys who sit behind the fence and fking anal lize every blade of grass for H2o content and structure that a lowly grunt with a low level IQ just snuck up behind your magnifying glass wearing pencil in the pocket corny ass that he just put a nine in ya while your still holding your trusty slide ruler lol.

Man your fking so lame get over it lol no matter how many times you post a complaint about this game I can rebut it with a claim thats totaly different.

You starting to see the point now scottie scott? everyone has a different opinion cause they all come to the table expecting something different but while you all are huddled crying over a patch the WORLD is passing you by ive completed Vampire twice already going thru it a third time and in the mean time your outta $50 and have the nerve to cry about it.

Oh let me see who made this game ummmm.. Oh its TROIKA arent they the company who dosent put good fighting into there products? Umm Bahhh WTF im gonna buy it anyways then go home to pick apart the combat elements only to post on the web what i already know beforehand that is that they suck in Combat stuff soo so so so....Errr ummmm wait a min hold on...why did I buy this then? LOL since i KNOW troika and I know they dont put good fighting into there games why did my stupid ass go out and waste my money on it?

Afterall they have put out several games in the past so i should have probley trusted my intuition instead of buying it then Trying to post on the web HOW fking smart I am cause i know how there fighting elements suck so now i can sound even smarter when i come back after buying it and say i told you so.

Get a Fking life.
