Other content aside, more than 3 story missions would have been nice, but giving it 5/10, a score reserved for games that are fundamentally broken or so half-assed as to be basically unplayable, is frankly retarded. It is a protest score, given as some aspect of the game doesn't live up to the critic's preconceptions. I've no interest in reading that type of review.

Edited by Alfy: 12/13/2014 5:58:27 PMWell the DLC did break the game for people who didn't buy the map pack. Btw can you find me a link of rules for reviews, because what you stated for games that are rated 5 out of 10 is the first time I ever hear of such a rule

It's hardly broken now, is it? There's really no need to be histrionic. Go and check out the list of 5/10 games on gamerankings or wherever if what I wrote is a novel concept for you.

Edited by Alfy: 12/13/2014 10:33:52 PMIt's broken because people (gamers who didn't buy the DLC) can do any weeklies, so yes it's still broken. Also You still haven't provided me a link where it states that a game that reviews a 5/10 is due to tech issues. So I'm sorry to break it to you, but according to Polygon, this game is a 5/10 and it isn't due to tech issues.

These are dark times indeed, if penny-arcade manages to write a better story than the actuall game
