Kár a játék végéért, mert egészen addig míg szörnyek ellen harcolsz, igencsak élveztem a játékot. Nagy kár volt az emberek elleni harcot behozni, totálisan megölte a játékélményt.
Főszereplőt bírtam, jó karakter volt. Grafika elment, sztori tetszett.
Karakterek egy-két kivétellel elég gyengék voltak, néhány szinkronhang borzalmasan ♥♥♥♥ volt.
6/10, nagy potenciál volt a játékba, mit nem sikerült a fejlesztőknek véghez vinni.
Multit kipróbáltam, nem volt rossz, csak ugye kevesen játszanak vele.

Sokat gondolkodtam, hogy ajánljam-e a játékot vagy inkább ne... Nem annyira rossz, hogy játszatatlan lenne, a grafika egész jó, a hangok (néhány szinkronhang kivételével) szintén elmennek. Maga a játékmenet is egész tűrhető, csak nem túl változatos. Ez a legnagyobb baja, kicsit monoton és a történet érdektelenségbe fullad. 8 órám van benne és most töröltem a játékot. Egy igeig lekötött, de a történet nem megy előre, egy idő után kifulladt és most nem vagyok kíváncsi a végére sem, szerintem ez mindent elmond. Sablonos játékmenet, unalmas karakterek, gyenge sztori. Annyi jobb játék van a piacon, hogy ahhoz képest ez nagyon gyenge. Bundle-ben megvehetitek, de ne várjatok tőle sokat. Kb annyi, hogy ha nincs jobb el lehet vele ütni az időt. Nekem ez kevés ahhoz, hogy ajánlani tudjam.

Egy elfeledett széria záró darabja, habár történetileg a 2007-es játék előzménye. Anno az nekem nagyon bejött, bár sose tudtam végigjátszani. A történet főszereplője Jim Peyton, egy mérnök aki a családja megélhetésének biztosítása miatt utazik a E.D.N. III fagyos bolygójára. Az itteni élővilágból ugyanis olyan hőenergiát lehet kinyerni ami segíthet megszüntetheti a földi energiaválságot. A játék nagyja a hős szakmáját teszi előtérbe. Persze ott van a hagyományos fedezék-orientált TPS harcmodor, de emellett rendelkezésünkre áll termetes Mecha. Ami ugyan nincs felfegyverezve, de a hagyományos eszközökkel is lehet darálni rendesen. Ilyenkor a játék belsőnézetre vált. Amúgy a karakterünk és a gép között egy úgynevezett köldök-zsínor kapcsolat is van, ami táplálja a HUD-onkat. Tehát ha nagyon messze kerülünk nem láthatjuk a statjainkat (pénz, töltény számláló stb).

Változás az alapkoncepcióhoz képest, hogy az ellenfelekből kinyert termikus energia már nem a túléléshez szükséges, hanem valutaként működik. Vásárolhatunk a szokásos mordályok közül mint gépstuki, puska, csipa és ezek erősebb változatai. Én többnyire az alapokra hagyatkoztam és vígan elvoltam. Az alap pisztolyunk végtelen lőszerrel rendelkezik, de a sima skulókat a Mechánk is vígank osztogatja. Egyébként a játék elég monotonná válik már rövid úton. Bár speciel én jól viselem az ilyesmit, ami igazán az erőssége a programnak az a története. Viszont a lezárása elég összecsapottnak tűnik. Technikailag sincs teljesen a helyzet magaslatán de elviselhető.

Van egy kis Dead Space 3 hasonlóság is, bár nem meglepő a helyszín és a megjelenés idejének tükrében. Ahelyett kezdtem egyébként bele, mert még nem rendelkezek vele. Viszont kellemes meglepetést okozott. Ezúton is köszönet Patyek barátomnak, hogy megajándékozott egy ingyenes példánnyal, valamint a fordításért is amit elkészített hozzá.

Röviden:

Pro:
-egy talán szerethető/szimpatikus karakter
-a történet próbál kicsit emberközpontú lenni
-próbáltak a színt vinni a programba...

Kontra:
-...csak nem más játékból kéne venni ötletet (khmm.. Batman Arkham féle graplehook)
-grafika pár helyen kopottas
-szinkron lehetett volna jobb
-az irányítás fantasztikusan sz@r

Én úgy érzem, ezt a programot csupán amiatt támadják mert a SPARK Unlimited fejlesztette. Jöhetnek a kövek és a mínuszok, de az első két játék se volt egy nagy attrakció. Annak idején is csupán az MTFramework motor miatt volt érdekes, (azaz technológiai oldalról). Volt benne DX10 támogatás, 4x nagyobb felbontású effektek, mint X360-as konzol változaton, stb, stb.

Ez a játék részben a kiadó politikai miatt siklott ki, vagy nem nyerte el a célközönség tetszését. A CAPCOM nyugati fejlesztőknek adogat címeket és faragja át az arculatukat, úgy mond "a könnyebb fogyaszthatóság érdekében". Viszont ettől függetlenül nem nevezném rossznak, a pro-ba leírtam miért. Metacriticen és hasonló oldalakon csak a monoton fikát látom, meg a gyenge-közepes értékelések hadát. Aztán úgy gondoltam, adok egy esélyt már csak azért is. Szimpla lövöldözős játék, ami a délutáni kikapcsolódásnak tökéletesen elég. Az irányításról, csak annyit: nagyon rossz; valamilyen érthetetlen oknál fogva nem jól szervezett a gombkiosztás, és a játékban nem is igen sikerült jól belőni vagy rendesen beállítani (nem lehet egy gombhoz több dolgot rendelni, de alapértelmezetten meg be van állítva...), nem éppen elegánsan az ini fájlokban kell turkálni. Én úgy érzem igazán meg lehetett volna oldani egy kis odafigyeléssel.

Megjegyzés: a HiRes Movie pakkot töltse le mindenki, aki teheti. A multiplayer mód döglött, így szót se érdemel, ahol a program WASD-re hivatkozik mikor az excavatorban ül és meg se makkan, helyette az F gombot kell püfölni.

This game got a bad rep on launch because it was a huge departure from the series established norms. However, I think it holds up well and on its own merits. It has a good story, compelling characters, top notch visuals for the time, and it's pretty easy to run these days.

BEWARE, THOUGH: This is *NOT* a game like Lost Planet 1 and 2. In fact, I would say this title is actually closer to games like "Dead Space" or "Doom 3" than it's own predecessors. BUT- If you like single player games with well written narratives, then give it a try. You can routinely find this game on sale (both on Steam and third party marketplaces). In fact, I just scored Lost Planet 3 for $2. You cannot beat a game of this caliber for that price, "old" as it may be.

If you DO decide to pick it up, I sincerely hope you enjoy it as much as I have.

Annak ellenére, hogy a story nem túl hosszú szerintem teljesen rendben volt. Annyit hiányoltam, hogy az akridekkel nem kellett olyan nagy hullámban megküzdeni, mint az előző részekben.

Okay, so here is the deal.
Yes, the gameplay is altered substantially from the previous two, yes the T-Energy mechanic doesn't come into play sadly. I had hoped the game might have had a section as a nod to the old games where Jim's suit gets damaged but alas it did not.
Co-operative play is also not featured anywhere in the single player story.

This said however, while the gameplay is somewhere inbetween extreme condition and the first dead space title, the controls most of the time feel fairly fluid.
The characters, especially Jim Peyton himself are really likable and it kept me immersed in the story. Jim's wife is a very interesting character (as well as Jim himself)and the game has a lot of soul.
Jim isn't a grizzled space marine who can kill an akrid from 300 metres, but he is also not out of his depth.
With a temperament somewhere between a trucker and a cowboy he instantly became (for me) one of my favourite videogame protagonists of all time

When you're out there on your own, with just music you brought from planet earth (the game imports music from your computer files so you can creat your own soundtrack for the cold wastelands) you really feel like there's no-one else you can count on but yourself. You feel isolated and in danger at every second.
This also works in reverse, that when you get a message from your in game wife you feel like you're at home, like you're making a difference and the characters really come to life. The same can be said when you return to coronis and upgrade your rig and weapons, greeting old friends.

There's a fair bit of longevity in the upgrades to your rig. Certain upgrades allow you to get to new places you couldn't before, or allow you to scrounge for scrap metal in new places.
The controls when fighting the akrid will feel a little alien at first due to the over the shoulder viewpoint of the camera, but you quickly get used to the contextual-only use of the grappling hook as well as dodging out of the way of enemies.

Fans of the series will be pleased to know that this does actually provide an interesting and very unexplained part of the story of the franchise and while they do retcon one or two things, it really does feel like it's for the better. The plot makes sense and while isn't anything spectacular, it is coherent and well-written. The supporting cast for me, was what really pulled along the plot for me and kept me interested even while trying to hunt down those annoying albino akrid.


The setpieces out in the ice and snow are quite fantastic and this is where the game excels, in the sheer scale of the areas outside. The opposite is unfortunately true in that on the occasional offchances you go into an enclosed space, combat and movement can feel clunky and out of place.
It's a shame likely the repetitive sidequests will put anyone off buying this because the atmosphere is amazing.
You really do feel like a lone contractor out in the middle of nowhere drilling for a precious substance.
I imagine the feeling and atmosphere in this game is not all that disimilar from the feelings of isolation and longing that ice truckers deal with on a day to day bonus.

Which brings us to the Rigs. The rig is not the vital suit (this is a prequel don't forget), it is an entirely different breed of machine, but this isn't a bad thing.
Yes, there are a few mechs in this game and while at first you may lament the loss of having shoulder mounted rockets and gatling guns, you will immediately warm up to the defensive and offensive capabilities of Jim's machine. Admittedly the rig can feel quite slow at times and while this may have been an artistic choice by the devs at Spark it can bog down the pace at times until you access fast travel quite early in the game. The good news is that those who loved the sheer mayhem and carnage of slicing off a limb or two from the large akrid will be right at home. It is just as satisying, maybe moreso to time your grab just right as you hold the creature and helplessly drill into it's cores with the drill arm as their lifeblood (T-energy) spills out.

I should point out that I was only ever interested in the game (and series) for the single player experience and therefore I did not touch multiplayer. My understanding is some of the maps from extreme condition make a reappearance and generally most reviewers say the online is where the strength of the game really lies.
This game did poorly due to the mountain of scathing critiques and generally poor write-ups it received.
I personally enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone who was a fan of the series for the story.
In terms of all the bad press and poor scores, I'd advise you to try it for yourself, it's not the most amazing game in terms of graphics or presentation but I sure had fun with it.

First of all i played every Lost Planet game and i have to admit Lost Planet 3 (LP3) is not as bad as most gamer think or reviews describe.

You take the role of Jim Peyton who arrives at the new planet to earn credits to take care of his family. He realises soon it won't be an easy journey. The E.D.N. III. colony is seeking for a new energy source called Thermal Energie (TE) to solve energy crisis back on Earth and to save mankind.

Jim begins his work as a simple employee, he got his RIG ( a giant robot like in Titanfall). The game itself is very story driven, as you make progress in the main storyline you will get access to new weapons, upgrades to your RIG and weps. There are side missions that mostly award TE or special stuff like albino tarkaa DNA which can be used to buy player upgrades (qiuck reload, health regen boost).Try to explore the enviroment because there is a lot of collectibles to be found such as text- and audio logs, TE canisters and speciazied components most of which can't be reached at first due to lack of required equipment. You have to return that area later if you wanna collect tehm.

TE serves as money to buy new things for yourself, specilazed components are for upgrading your RIG. There are achievements which will be unlocked upon collecting all logs, buying all upgrades.

The planet is full monsters called Akrid. There is small and huge ones to fight, some are easy to kill some are vicious and can kill you easily. When Akrids are killed they drop TE that can be collected. Exploring the whole planet is a bit boring in the beginning until you unlock your RIG's fast travel feature. LP3 is very similar to Dead Space 3 (third person view, ice cold unforgiving enviroment, lots of monsters trying to kill you).

The game has good graphics, sounds and story line. It has full controller support, i was playing it with keyboard and mosue without any issue except one thing: you can rotate your RIG's claw by pressing F (not with W,S,A,D as the game says).

I don't think LP 3 is worth its full price but it is enjoyable and fun if you like exploring and killing giant bugs (Akrid). Give LP 3 a try if you can get it during a sale 8/10.

In a rather plausible future, Earth has acquired interplanetary capabilities, however it also incurred a massive energy crisis as its resources came on the verge of depletion. The solution? T-Energy, a near-miraculous, all-purpose power source found in the bowels of a remote ice ball known as EDN 3. You’ll wear the insulated boots of Jim Payton, an external contractor working for interplanetary megacorp NEVEC, and tasked with acquiring as much of the substance as possible, while fighting against both extreme conditions and the dangerous local fauna.

LP3’s setting is realized rather well, as it manages to convey great desolation and sense of loss with the stalagmite-ridden, storm-ravaged areas of the planet. The struggle of NEVEC’s teams against nearly-untameable forces of nature and the deadly Akrid is portrayed well, as it is the profit-oriented corporate mindset that prevails above all else. At times, mostly through rundown facilities and damp caves, LP3 also deviates to a more ‘horror-like’ atmosphere and does so decently well.

Despite such potential and premise, all the characters that encompass Jim’s adventures, up to and including himself, prove unremarkable. An insipid protagonist is put side-by-side with ‘textbook antagonistic underdog’, cheerful ‘notice me senpai’ youngster trying to shine, ‘tired boss’ and more clichèd characters from start to end. The story is rarely interesting, as it uses the already tired ‘humans shouldn’t meddle with what they don’t understand’ trope to produce a mediocre plot that feels stale, already-seen after just a couple hours.

Being a corporate contractor, your job will be executing various tasks from your superiors, which act as main missions. Your faithful RIG - an industrial bipedal robot as tall as a house - will be a vital asset to accomplish the job, as it’s equipped with utility tools that double as weapons. LP3 alternates RIG-driving phases with much more common on-foot sections, where the careful explorers will be rewarded, as there’re T-energy (currency) drops hidden around, lore-related material and Specialized Components, vital to upgrade your RIG with new, better functions.

While the main activity is fighting Akrid hordes, there’s a bit of simple platforming, some puzzle-solving and exploring thrown in the mix, to give some much-needed variety to the loop. While this is an appreciable effort, the extremely limited roster of locations will weigh down heavily as you pass the same place, with the same enemies, for the 5th time in a row to do some side-quest. Generally you’ll unlock more weapons, upgrades and RIG enhancements as the main story progresses, although some of these are tied to secondary quests or even collectible-fetching.

Jim will carry two primary weapons with limited ammo, and the classic ‘infinite pistol’ as sidearm, plus a couple very powerful grenades. Almost anywhere, EDN 3 is crawling with Akrid of diverse shapes and sizes - each with different abilities and attack patterns. All weapons have some sort of specialty target, for instance the sniper rifle will be great against single, armored targets but near useless versus hordes - special ammo that drastically alters how each gun functions is a thing, too, but can’t be refilled by normal ammo drops to offset its power.

Generally, fighting Akrid involves well-timed dodges, taking cover from ranged attacks, and hitting the glowing weak spots to inflict major damage, although some fights (especially bosses) may have unique mechanics unto themselves, that however rarely prove truly exciting or fresh - actually, they mostly prove clunky, half-assed garbage.

RIG combat sees Jim using his mech to deal punishment to the enemies, despite it not being a military vehicle. A 10-ton drill to the head will instantly kill most smaller enemies, and deal massive damage to larger ones - given that their weak spots are exposed. A system of quick-time prompts to trigger counter-attacks and special moves exists when fighting most ‘big guys’, however I found that using the RIG is generally a downgrade compared to going down and dealing with them on foot as your weapons, united with Jim’s agility, are just better than the RIG’s.

Using the T-energy awarded from missions and kills, Jim will not only be able to upgrade his tools, but also acquire new ones alongside unique upgrades tied to the completion of specific side-quests. While the character doesn’t directly evolve, his equipment will. For instance, finding the rare Albino Tarkaas specimen will enable purchasing permanent passive skills, while extracting samples for the base’s chief scientist will unlock special ammo. These side-missions, while sometimes worthy in terms of rewards, prove extremely boring, slow and dull due to the overall pacing riddled with transitions, loading times and useless waiting: trust me, you will get bored of such chores long before the end of it all.

Preface: I am not judging this game compared to its predecessors, since I did not particularly enjoy LP1 or LP2. That being said...

This game is not good. It certainly starts out well, the story is interesting, the graphics are pretty (especially given how well-optimized it is), the sound design is good, and the voice acting is solid. HOWEVER:

-The game is unbelievably easy (I played 95% of it with just the infinite-ammo pistol) except for random HUGE difficulty spikes
-The game world is incredibly small and stifling
-The "hostile" and "uninhabitable" world poses no threat at all (you can walk around in major storms to your heart's content)
-Controls are lazy and stupid (P is to pick up ammo! Why not the "use" button??)
-The cover system is the epitome of crappily-made. They don't even tell you it's there, which makes sense, since it DOES. NOT. WORK.
-The strategy for killing the akrids (including the bosses) is always the exact same (dodge as they charge, shoot when they're stunned)
-Fighting in the rig is beyond pointless (it's ALWAYS better to get out and fight in-person)
-The boss fights are ridiculously stupid (the one in the rig is mind-bendingly atrocious)
-Bosses are recycled all over the place (you kill the giant crab thing in 3 different boss fights alone)
-The game straight-up lies about button prompts ("W/A/S/D to turn wheel" really means "tap f repeatedly")
-The audio logs are filled with SO MANY juicy, lip-smacky, mouth-poppy sounds that it sounds like the mic is being eaten
-The base only has a few people you can actually interact with, so it feels lifeless
-It is completely arbitrary where/when you can grapple/repel
-There is no visual indicator of health (other than when you're near-death), and your ammo count vanishes and reappears whenever it feels like it (EDIT: I've been informed that your ammo count and the rest of your HUD disappear when you get too far from the mech)
-And so many other little tiny annoyances

If you're a more patient person than I am, you could probably put up with this game, and might even enjoy it. I, however, found it joyless, tedious, and boring. It is a paint-by-numbers, designed-by-committee, heartless blob of checklists, man-hours, and coding. Life is too short to slog through uninteresting crap, and this game didn't make the cut (for me). You may enjoy it, but please don't spend more than $5 on it.
