Favorite types of missions? Opinions on love interest in cam

Post » Fri May 13, 2011 3:59 pm

Just another poll to gauge the different playing styles of the folks on this forum... and then a bit more. What opinions would you have on any love interest that... happened... to surface in the storyline?

Anything that worth fighting for from going through a bullet storm to intelligence gathering. I really don't want any love stories going in the story, I didn't mind it in the MGS saga which was pulled off pretty good.

This game has all male characters like prison I don't want any stinky luv triangle in that scenario or in any fps I play. Just let me blowup stuff up, kill, pillage, sabotage, assassinate that's all I ask.

I like to sprint across rooftops, kill whomever I need to, find the objective, blow it up or sabotage it, turn loose the doves, and head below the streets for a pizza lunch with the TMNT.

As for a love interest, my instinct is "no". Too much pressure to find a mate in our society and media. How about doing something for the objective of getting that accomplished instead of sacrificing what we always wanted to make the romance end happily ever after. However, I do like how love interests worked in Mass Effect 2: you chose whom you courted, if anyone at all. Total freedom of choice, even in a video game. Other than that, I really don't think it works.

What no "Romeo and Junior Security Officer Fred"? He was a resistance fighter, he was a security officer, two sides of the conflict, secretly in love.

I'm open to any game mode as long as it works.

In a game like this I would rather not have love interest. And I love area denial because it's like wave after wave of enemies and it requires a lot of teamwork to keep them out.

Save it for the 5th sequel of 'Brinky finds his feminine side' that will be when they have exhausted all the good ideas out of this game.

Tbh, I always liked the construct objectives in SD's games. "Oh look, I just built a bridge!"

Assassinations.

how would we even HAVE a love interest considering there isn't any girls in the game and single is the same as multiplayer, there-fore either we draw straws for the chick, or all of us have the same girlie-girl.

I love assassination game types (KZ3 infiltrator brutal melee the assassin target *sigh* good times). I like any game mode that moves the combat somewhere where it usually is not, changes things up ya know

I honestly loved the construction objectives in ET:QW's demo. It astounds me how you can build a guard tower and an EMP disruptor system with just... pliers.

A person that ccan build stuff with pliers is a good engineer, mechanic, landscaper, builder type person.

In the list of currently known abilities and objectives, I look forward to stealing Command Posts as an Operative the most. Any related objective sounds great too (such as hacking a terminal to stop a fan, which open up a new area of the map; which was in a early gameplay video). Assassinations and blowing things up, not really my style.

As for a love story, I guess I'm not outright opposed to the idea, but this is civil war, a fight for survival. If it was me, my romance life would take a back seat to that. Just sayin'. :spotted owl:

I love the idea of operatives doing intel gathering and i don't mind a love interest but it wouldn't be my priority when protecting massive number of civilians is in question.

If they just deliver objective driven class based teamplay (as in RtCW/ET), then I'm happy.

I guess the closest to that in your poll would be "Assault"

The funnest part in FPS's is DM/TDM because killing random players without having any other responsibilities is great.

Not around here it ain't, 90%+ of the people on these forums are sick of that kind of game play, that's why we are waiting for Brink, not another COD, if you rahter have that type of gameplay over objectives, i suggest you go back to COD or Halo because this game is not for you.

Agreed
I suppose if there is, it would be a reason to fight. "A better life for my lover" kind of deal,

I usually like Escort or Extraction kind of missions. I like to help and defend others in games, so I usually like escorting, healing, rescuing, delivering or extracting, etc.

Stealth missions are my ultimate weakness (thus no Operatives for me) in many games.

On the romance side, I say, "No". I'm a female playing a male character, and I usually don't like it when my male dude has a female love interest
(it's a catty female thing maybe, lol? or the fact that most female interests are bland and/or useless or annoying and sort of "there").
I usually don't like romances anyway in most of my forms of entertainment, so yeah, no. (Unless it's really, really well-done).

I do like how the Bioware games do romances, but there are choices for all genders and sixual orientations and you have
the freedom to pursue them or not. (I usually don't like straightforward narration kind of games because I feel forced into a "role",
but if games have plenty of choices like Bioware games or is a sandbox game, then I am fine with it).

OMG, lol, you meanie, you stole my fanfiction idea for my Security dude! (Beware, Yaoi fangirl here) :laugh:
