Looks like they are using same engine as Worms Reloaded over and over...
THIS is what kinda annoys me about the new Worms games, the graphics look a bit nice, but WA games remind me of the current state of the pop music industry, you have the old classics that lasted the years and are generally favourites - W2/WA/WWP : Beatles/Elvis/Michael Jackson - Which people still play/listen to and love, then you have the new "modern" stuff that gets hyped up for maybe a few months and then forgot about... That's exactly what the new Worms games are...
HHC Vs Tomtysi:
My thought on your little debate, I agree with HHC when he says take the game how it is, wait for 4.0 if that's what you want, and I will lol, but at the same time I disagree with him when he says:
And it's definitely innovative as well. Who of us would have thought of adding buildings and tanks? And to fit them nicely into the dynamics of a standard worms game?
Like, how much thought went into this lol, it's not something innovative to gaming is it? They have taken ideas that are 10+ years old and added them to a franchise that's like 20 years old LMAO!
Same goes for Tomtysti I agree with some things he says but not others:
Nope, I didn't whine about that at all, I "whine" about today's Team17 being incompetent at making interesting gameplay and screwing up the glorious potential of what a Worms game could be. I don't want them to do a new and improved W:A, because they've proven many times of not being capable of doing anything even close to that, they don't even understand what makes W:A so special.
The first part there isn't true, it's only YOUR opinion, millions of people around the world take Worms for what it originally is supposed to be which is a little bit of crazy fun, I bet when W2/WA/WWP were 1st made they had no idea how good people would get at it and how serious people would play it. With saying that I have to agree they don't even understand what makes WA so special...
Then again if an actually really good Worms-type game would come, it would potentially hurt W:A community, so I'd prefer 4.0 over that.
If T17 somehow managed to pull a miracle out their asses and make a game in our opinions better than WA, that would be a good thing not a bad thing, it will never happen, and no Worms game ever developed by T17 will ever have the features and playability that WA has thanks to DeadCode and CyberShadow.
With all that being said, I am for one, glad they continue to make more Worms games, one day they might surprise us, and it doesn't hurt to play the new games a little as well as still being addicted to this edition, after all I am a keen gamer, not a 1-hit-wonder kinda guy, I do enjoy other stuff
