What is the benefit of getting photos of enemies?

[Ben]

So when you snap a "perfect" photo of an enemy, do you get any in-game rewards? Or is it just bragging rights and trophies?

[Elensar]

Experience points towards leveling up I believe

[Ben]

If that's it, then I'll save myself the aggravation of getting Perfects for every enemy type. I was thinking it might be like Bioshock where enemy photos contributed towards damage bonuses or other neat tricks.

I think I'm a little overleveled anyway. I couldn't resist getting cheesy with turrets at the end of the hospital level.

The whole photos system feels like something the devs planned to do more with, but had to cut most of it because the budget isn't endless. The game is full of such things — I can only imagine how epic it could be with more resources. I fully believe they could nail a game like Fallout 3, but in Terminator universe. Ah, one can only dream...

They make excellent, sexy calendar models when in perfect quality pictures.

I love photos, i am a photographer and taking photos in Terminator game is great idea.
(It's also a kind of Homage for the Sarah Connor Photo from the Movies!)

What if the photos taken would be hanging in the command room as the intel they were meant to be? :)

T-800: *checks phone book, finds multiple Sarah Connors, loads shotgun* I will catch them all.

This game is pretty damned good and the atmosphere is fantastic.
It's weird how the gaming media crapped all over this game.

The IGN guy was like "I felt like I was just mindlessly shooting terminators", were we even playing the same game? Were they playing on easy?

Well, you can't spell ignorant without ign. I stopped taking them seriously (also Gamespot and some others) after the Days Gone review. That was a pathetic review for a pretty nice game. I prefer a random fella review on Steam over journos nowadays.

I'd like a scrapbook menu! Where we can see the pictures we've taken, but normal, not all green!

So seeing a sweet T-825V staring you down with Twin Westinghouses, that'd be cool! ^w^

IGN should not be taken seriously: They need to give out negative reviews to games that do not sponsor them so that they have at least some rep.
Mass Effect Andromeda got 7.7
EA Battlefront 2: 8.8
Witcher +3: only 9.3!!!!!!! (I would like them to show me any game with this level of detail, quality and fun to be had even yeas later)
Fallout 4: 9.5 :) (Yes, Fallout 4 has gotten BETTER score then Witcher 3)
Terminator Resistance: 4
Its pretty much irrelevant what they score a game

I think you've replied to the wrong topic.
