Mine arrived to.

Like the single player, not so sure on multiplayer though.
The initial impressions from just under 2 hours online are it works good, but..

Not so keen on deathmatch modes, they encourage sitting and camping alot, and u know how i feel about them type of games, they get boring quickly.

Just in a game with a few mess hall people, and some dude was sitting in the spawn killing u, then moving to the next one LOL.. i quit, fuck that shit.

I also could see peoples nametags.. but the person was invisible, u dont know where the body is to shoot.

but the general feel is i like it, but not to much at the moment
(i expected more for mp i think).

i'll see how it goes.

Like i say its okay... but you know.. can't put me finger on it yet.
Pretty new to it all, so i'll see what i think by the end of the day - which by then i think i will at least be able to form a proper opinion of it.

Personally i love it,

Singleplayer takes a good hour or so to actually get going, but after that its brilliant.

Thoroughly enjoying the multiplayer too, dont think Sy likes Deathmatch cause him and Grobbie got absolutely PWNED! :D

and yes i can say that....cus he dicks me on BC2...so meh!

MP is literally lag free, Posse system works well, had no problems with connection or anything so far.

Little bit disapointing the free roam 'hideout' missions are just repeats of singleplayer missions, but can't complain.
Only slight negative so far!

Hmmmm
Its cool, Its interesting, ranking up could be a little more fun,
I.e. new unlocks features, it seems to be more in the high end of ranking do you get cool stuff,

its a little repetitive,
Unlike GTA You would have missions with driving and killing etc

Here it just seems to be killing,

Its a little boring, i dont know if thats just me, or the mode we where playing,
but the question that gets asked is, Now what?
What next?
What should we go?

Now if a game is soo cool no one would ask this question well maybe out of politeness give other people a chance to pick, but when someone does speak its like
erm....... duno.....

Maybe its just me, or maybe its too early in the game, but am rank 11, have 2 horses and well thats it........

Am gona give it some more time see what happens, but at this moment thats how i feel of the game,

So basically its alright, but thats about it.
Bit like gta, you go on it when you feel like it, but not alot.

The graphics are great, game mechanics work wonders.
Some of the game modes are boring and get boring really fast.
You gota have friends playing this to get the most out of it.

Single player is pretty decent.
thats about it.

Its nice , it works, but it will deffo end up like gta - once in a while game, when you feel like it :)

edit: 4:25am

just been playing in a posse with grobbie and we kept hunting down this other posse whilst they were doing gang hideout, lmfao, now that is what makes the game fun, killing other humans whilst they try to finish missions LOL.

Frustrating for them.. hella fun for us .. mwhaha.
