Is Worms Revolution worth it?

Closed

Pretty much as the title says...I'm on the fence if to buy it or not.

I was a big worms fan since Worms 2, but the question is if it still "holds water" today?

I heard opinions here and there...I still have quite a few other games to play, so I need to be quite sure if it'll be worth my money.

I've bought it a few months ago. It's a cool game, but no one plays online and the game itself feels weird. Well, i think it's worth it if u're a Worms fan.

Edit: oh, and yeah. physics are really weird. don't count to throwing grenades or roping like in old 2D worms or even worms reloaded

Buy Worms Reloaded instead. The water and physics seem cool first, but the game itself just couldn't convince me.

Just because it was in a bundle doesn't make it a worse game than Revolution. And it was BTA which was just about the Sale price right now. I have to admit that I'm not a big Worms fanboy, but I enjoyed Reloaded and was kinda bored with Revolution.

probably because you've played all the worms titles. Reloaded is a broken re-hash of Armageddon. Revolution adds to the gameplay isn't broken isn't a mere rehash of Armageddon. For all worms games you need friends to play with, or they all get boring.

No I didn't play all the Worms titles. World Party when I was a kid but thats it. And I have only one good friend to play Worms with and we both pre-purchased Revolution because we liked Reloaded. And the game just doesn't felt "smooth" after a few rounds. Well you have only 1.7h on record, too. ô.Ô

Shouldnt you be complaining he doesnt even have Reloaded and he's mostly trashing Reloaded?
And the fact that Worms campaign are fantastic and he's claiming they're trash?
2 worms vs 12 worms is pretty dang fun

I didn't get it just because I felt sorry for buying Reloaded.

They kept saying they'd fix stuff but never, my biggest dissapointment being the map editor not working online.

I'd take a look in the Steam forums first to see the reception. I haven't tried Revolution to give an opinion.

I love it, especially if you're a fan of the worms series in general as I was. Just go for it :)

Revolution is worth it if you have friends, only game worth getting since Armageddon, everything else has been like a failed worms game or a re-has of Armageddon. Revolution is the first true successor to Armageddon and actually has great unbroken gameplay

I would say with gameplay yes, but I would say that there are lots of improvements and added gameplay features that would almost make Revolution the new best worms game. . . but it depends if you like the added new gameplay features. I mean Worms fanboys hate anything that even touches Armageddon. But for playing with friends I'd pick Revolution over them all at this point. But I more play worms to have fun with friends.

I do find it funny when a map gets loaded where you can fire a rocket at a water ball and wipe out half my buds, and I find it funny when it happens to me.

I'll plus a no name review Aka not Tb, Northernlion, IGN, Rossterteeth, eer most big names.

I got Revolution in pre-order because it had Armageddon as bonus. I played Revolution a little but it looks like younger weird brother of rest 2D games from series. Get it only if you are big fan of Worms and you want to have them all.
