[QUOTE="Wasarasormi, post: 242004, member: 6157"] I've recently started putting more time into FX2 and I kinda agree with the 1st post. As a beginner in this game, propably my biggest problem is that it's based entirely on completing missions. And by completing I mean that you must complete everything 100% without failure in order to get forward. On some tables it feels like playing Mega Man, but even on Mega Man you don't have to start the whole game again if you fail boss mode once. Exception are the Alien tables (maybe some others too), that are more beginner friendly because you only need to start a mission to get it checked. Also there are a few tables where you can get large scores without going for the missions (Venom and Rome for example) but most of the tables require a lot of research and memorizing which can cause frustration. As for the the rules, on TPA I could figure out most tables without even reading the manuals but on FX2 there are more of those mystery games where I don't really know what I'm supposed to do before looking up online manuals. At least on XB360, the ingame instructions are pretty poor. XB1 version seems to have better instructions. When it comes to the actual playing, the aim feels somewhat off or inconsistent. I have no trouble hitting most stuff on TPA but FX2 feels a lot more difficult. Maybe I'm just too used to the TPA physics. FX2 is definitely the harder of those 2 games for me. Which is weird because almost everyone says the opposite. Otherwise I don't really have any problems with the physics being different, just takes more time to learn. Graphics on FX2 are great and sharp, also cool themes and designs. Definitely a fun game and worth the time but definitely takes some work to get it going. :) [/QUOTE]
