The problem is that there are certain types of fanboys to a series. There are people that blindly follow the series, and buy any game in it without hesitation, and then you get guys like the OP.
They absolutely hate change. And while the games they adore are still good, they just don't want it to change. Ever.
If they ran the video game business, we would still have pac-man but with better graphics. Because any time a person would try to build on the game or expand on it, they would get shot down for trying to break the mold, and not sticking with the tried and true.
If it isn't broken, don't fix it, right? Well, unfortunately, that is how almost every technological advance we have made has come around. People who weren't content with what was already out came up with many of the conveniences we have today.
Also, this group I've mentioned is the hardest to change their mind. It is just better to blast their arguements right out of the water to show how they (might) be wrong
When you say, "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" I see it as, keep what works, but take out what doesn't, Work on what doesn't. Then add new features that don't mess up the core that made it work. BUT NEVER TAKE OUT WHAT WORKS, expand upon it but never take it out.
pray, please do tell me what it is that works so much. Most of the problems I've read and experienced with the game are very, very easy to fix, and even some of the AA's an be fixed easily as well. I stand strong for AA's, as even though they add a boost to each player, it just mixes up the games a lot.
Everyone slams on the jetpack, but it is fun to use it to introduce the 3d battle effect, instead of everyone on the same plane. While it is n00b friendly to just fly high in the sky and throw nades, this can be changed by reducing the power/length of the jetpack.
I already know grenades are overpowered, as I died once with FULL HEALTH and GREATER THAN 75% SHIELDS and died with ONE GRENADE, but that is easy to fix. I haven't played CE, or H2, but it seemed to me that H3 grenades were just perfect
