Depth - Sharks vs Divers

Got this game on sale. Pretty damn fun.

Essentially it's a asymmetrical FPS where one side plays as sharks and the other as divers. I don't really play diver much but shark satisfies a predatory and hunting urge for me similar to what AvP used to do.

Oh goodness, I remember seeing this when it released, thinking that it'd be cool, and then nope'd right out because underwater shark attacks are just nopenopenope.

I only played it a few minutes.  It was kinda fun but didn't really capture hte feeling I thought it would from the early dev videos.  Less hide and seek, more Left 4 Dead.

Come on, you pair of wimps. :p

Once you get to the point where divers are good enough to hit you reliably, it does become a game of hide and seek. I think the number of lives both sides have should be lowered a bit, though, just to make a single death more risky.

Nothing more fun than waiting for the enemy to start moving as a shark, though. Lunging and taking people out into open water where their squeals for help are meaningless. <3
