Feed Back regarding SGW3 Suggestions for Improvements, Tweaks and Changes that would make the game better.
So let me start of by saying a portion of my playing SGW3 was sheer want to play of a game in this Genre and nothing anyone said in any review or things I was hearing from word of mouth was going to keep me from playing it. Having Bought the game and playing it through after I had torrent-ed it and played it encountering all the bugs of the first release left me feeling ... uneasy about spending 60$ of my money on a product that for all intents and purposes was broken at its very core but it going on sale swayed my purchase and I did enjoy that brief time playing.

Moving on to some of the issues and I hope the folks at CI Games can take these complaints constructively use these idea's and make this game and future games better.

Firstly, Graphics; The game trailer that was shown looks nothing like the actual game! Even with my GTX 980Ti and everything set to max settings I do not get the visual Awe that was shown in the trailers... If you folks over at CI Games are trying to be like Ubisoft I say keep this practice up and see what happens ... I Dare You. If you don't know what I am talking about go take alook at ANY Ubisoft product trailer and then youtube actual ingame footage. Then take alook at their sales for games like Watchdogs vs Watchdogs2. This includes the complete lack of weather affects, Rain, Fog, Snow, Blizzard, Torrential down pour, Over Cast, Clouds! and Extreme Dark. These are one of my biggest complaints about the game is the near complete lack of realism! Adjacently you could instead of having Music being played through out the World Space you could have a Weather Report Forcast?! as a hint hint nudge nudge to the player that could sleep until the weekend when a Rain Storm is forcasted making the player near invisible but also the enemy NPC's that would only clue in that anyone was there when lightning struck and there was a flash of light.

Next, GamePlay; While I generally am not a fan of linear progression in video games and would like to be able to experience what I want when I want I understand the need for it. I would have liked to see an Open World where you can do any mission/task in any order you want while said mission would unlock this item or weapon. Being that by the time you get everything unlocked and you start to truly feel like a badass the game is over!

Random Tagent;
For the future You might want to trim the code moving the call back functions to the root so the process doesn't have to go through thousands of lines of code to reach it. ID functions, implement functions then code. Also you can remove all of the old Crysis code this should reduce the over all load times that for many people are near unbearable. Personally loading a new map area I get up and went to make a sandwich!

Next, Weaponry; While I enjoyed most of the weapons I found my self hacking the game quite literally using cheat engine to remove the Silencer Degradation of weapons when I got tired of using the Brezilya or the other Russian made Vykop! This personally to me felt like a slap in the face when you have a weapon like the BMT not be able to finish a full extended magazine before its silencer breaks! while other weapons like the Rook and many others going through Three Full Extended Magazines! This to me was insulting that you would do something like this. At the same time You have weapons like the Balance and Knight that are great weapons that dont have a Bipod, While the SHARUR 5.0 (The New Sabatoge DLC Sniper Rifle) Has a bipod but not an Actual Bipod that It flips down. While its basically the same weapon as the McMillan TAC just in a .50caliber and isn't integrally suppressed.

Moving on while staying on weapons there is the Origin-12 Which was supposed to have a silencer but doesn't as well as no optics. In fact this can be said for most if not all of the "Secondary Weapons" that feel like an after thought, with all of them suffering from horrible recoil control or in the case of the FM-3000 the shakiest butt stock I have ever seen! Yet it has one of the Best Optics! Its like you guys couldn't make up your minds where you wanted to go with these instead of taking the time the research real world weapons and use their models, attachments and control mechanics you just threw stuff together. Being a "Trained Force Recon Marine Sniper" you should have a full understanding of the weapons and how to use them properly! While in game you cannot control most of these weapons regardless of how could you are controlling your mouse of controller!

Next, Level Design; While the world is a fairly decent size the splitting up of the various world spaces shouldn't have been done I think the game would have been much better with One Single World Space that would have been much larger and would have made players feel like they were in something extremely Vast like Skyrim.
While at the same time making the world more populated with wildlife and Denizen's as most if not all area's are extremely sparse. Area's like Silo's have a very limited tunnel network that is basically unused, not patrolled and really lead to nothing. Where they could have lead to an underground bunker with barracks for shift change at some time interval.

You sound like the perfect guy to just start your own game development company and do it better! :D

It sounds like you made a personal custom order for this game to be made just for you alone, and are now giving the team personal feedback for what went wrong, but you did personally order and pay for.

Yes another who should have kept his money in his pocket

OR

You can please some of the people some of the time BUT never ALL of the people all of the time :steamfacepalm:

Decent feedback. I'm sure the team can improve the next game with some of these implementations.

Ah, and don't mind the fanboys. They lose their minds if anyone critisizes their sacred game in any way.

Thanks for the constructive feedback! I have forwarded it to relevant department :)

While there is an issue where some guns wear out their silencers relatively quickly/slowly, I do want to point out that silencer degradation is a very important feature partially because using silencers cripples the AI pretty bad. The AI heavily relies upon the player making noise to track them, and if you can fire heaps of shots with a silencer, that's a huge problem.
roll my eyes - ha ha ha - this game development ended with the last dlc+patch !

What makes you say that, considering the multiplayer hasn't been released yet and even when they release the MP they'll still have to release the season pass MP maps?
what does multiplayer have to do with the single player campaign ?

You said "this game development ended with the last dlc+patch !". Multiplayer is still part of the game, unless you want to correct yourself by specifying your comment meant was for single player.

Not at all, I understand the criticism the game gets, and of course I agree it has bugs.

But buying a game, made by good programmers, and then as a player, tell the development team how to write code (the 'Random Tagent' part)?! GTFOH :D

I'm losing track of who is allowed to respond to whom.. so apparently a gamer can freely say any nitpicking feedback he/she wants (and sure, why not, it just gets on my nerves to see entitled millennials that aren't happy with anything). But giving my view on how that feedback comes across, makes me an idiot? Oh well, have a good evening.

Nice shifting of the goalpost. Your first comment was literally 100% composed of mocking the OP rather than critisizing his criticism. So you trying to make yourself out as the reasonable guy is beyond pathetic, which is why the other guy called it a Scheiße post.

One main thing I'd love changed is the sound. When NPC's are chatting, you cannot tell if they are behind you or when you are a long way away they sound like they are right next to you.
If the sound dulled down the further you are away from them, the more realistic it would be.

jumping all over other peoples feedback then trying to justify the bashing and mocking is a real d-bag move. please read the folloing quote as well.

If you dont haven anything nice to post or you cant post without attacking someone dont bother posting at all, it just makes you look like a weak willed person that has noithing constructive to say to anyone. Its offensive to the rest of us.

Well whatever, I'm not going to explain myself further, it's getting childish.
