Hammerhead=Mako . The Hammerhead controls were slightly better only because we're given an insane jump, but on the whole I wasn't very impressed. I still say the Mako wouldn't have so bad if they just didn't have those insane mountain hills, that are just 'bout every where in ME1.



As for the mission themselves, there was only one I really enjoyed, it was the earthquake prone planet and you had to escape because Shepard activated the power generator and it caused a chain reaction, or somethin' like that. I think the Hammerhead really works when you go in one direction really really fast.

I felt like I downloaded the tutorial for the HH. The missions seemed more like efforts to understand the controls.



The HH appears to be a bit more fragile than the MAKO but I can at least justify that by saying things that fly can't weigh as much as things that don't. Combat in a fast agile craft like the HH feels not very fast or agile.



I'll wait and see how they HH is integrated into the DLC that actually costs money before I can say much more about it.

[smallrit]

The control of HH is fluent enough (for me at least), it will be even better if the jumping and accelerating function don't exclude each other.



The level design is good but I wish there is more stories and dialogues in it. (When I read my journal I thought I would encounter that crazy scientis in ME1 again, sadly that didn't happen )

Good things:
Looks cool
I can use it to run stuff over
didn't feel like a massive waste of time @ only 30~ mins of playtime (if that)
free!
pretty decent appetizer, I'd at least consider buying HH DLC.

Bad things:
Far too short is an understatement
All I did was hold spacebar, press e, shoot some things, hold v, repeat
HH seems to be made of cardboard
It ended pretty abruptly.

Can't say I hated it, though it wasn't very good...

Yea the HH is something they really need to expand on, its def on to something great I think. And you'd be surprised at some of the reviews around the web, its getting positive reviews for its controlling/performance and for the simple fact that it is just teasing us for what could be in future DLC and ME 3.

Just check out G4TV review/forums for example, the majority of the response to the Hammerhead is positive
with even some Mako hate.
g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/post/703427/The-Verdict-Mass-Effect-2---Firewalker-DLC-Pack.html these people know a good vehicle!

Gamecritics also praised it. www.gamecritics.com/brad-gallaway/mass-effect-2-firewalker-review

I hope BioWare doesn't just scrape this thing like the Mako.

[Katreyn]

I was mostly just thrown off that the tutorial had the wrong keys pointed out. I thought I was going crazy when the keys it was mentioning to use wasn't working. Then I looked at key bindings and was kind of dumbfounded by this.



Either way, I thought it was not that bad, it was 'short' but it was free, and it has future potential as well.

[Darth_Trethon]

The DLC in and of itself isn't bad at all but BioWare screwed up by advertising it as "5 missions" which immediately made us all expect quality half hour missions like the recruitment and the loyalty missions. If they simply left it as "a one hour DLC" it wouldn't have been so bad in terms of disappointment because it actually takes 30-45 minutes to complete.

They are trying to sell us these things but they fail to realize that they really don't want to disappoint too many fans. Still....it's free content so no real complaints to speak of on my part. We'll see how Kasumi is.

Fix the targeting, give us a health/shield bar, the ability to save (Urg Artifact collecting mission!! ><) and when you run someone over it should outright kill them are the only suggestions I would give.



Personally I liked the Hammerhead. Nice change of pace, fun gameplay and good exp early on. And well...it was free > Thumbs up Bioware. Cant wait for Kasumi.

I was expecting 'missions' like "Bring Down the Sky" with the Hammerhead's advertised five missions, but basically got the "Pinnacle Station" 'simulator levels' isntead.  I'm just glad I didn't have to pay for this - that would've been the proverbial straw that broke the camel's back if it had been paid and this... boring.  It didn't feel much like a hovertank, and unlike the Mako it didn't have the "We don't see it fly" excuse in the cutscenes, so watching it just drive around like a wheelless Mako (and nearly getting killed in a volcano because I couldn't make it jump out of the lava) was... not fun.

It really was disappointing, especially as I'd half-expected to be able to land with the thing, or to take it instead of the assault shuttle on missions, and not getting to drive it except on certain missions was a downer.

[Volothos]

What would be interesting is a "DLC-Campaign" utilizing the shuttle(for ground of course ) and the hammerhead for heavy missions. Who knows, maybe Bioware can give us a gunship to do CAP. An example off the top of my head is maybe the batarians, or a merc group, are launching a series of attacks/invasions/whatever on a certain system or cluster and you're assigned to quell whatever is going on there.
Bad wording here and there but you get the idea. Hopefully.
Oh, and I really enjoyed the Hammerhead pack. I just wish that the end of the artifact mission didnt have a collosi/prime or two.

First, a note to the OP: Your poll is poorly made. You give the user two extremities to choose from "great" and "terrible." If you want to actually give Bioware feedback flesh out the poll with less far flung answers. Few opinions are black and white.

Personally, I thought the DLC was ok considering its price tag. My only criticism is that the plot could have been executed much better. Five missions is a lot of time to spin a side story. But only three of the missions were directly linked to each other and of those, two were simple scavenger quests.

Instead the five missions should have been strung together into an overarching story. If that were done it could help alleviate the view of the DLC as "short" because the player would have something more concrete to follow from mission to mission.

[WrexEffex]

I want more Hammerhead!!! I really love driving/hovering around in it, I just hope BioWare makes more missions for it.





PLEASE BIOWARE MAKE MORE MISSIONS FOR THE HAMMERHEAD. THANK YOU.

[Rapamaha1]

well, its free, you cant except too much from a stuff that is free, if you want good quality you need to pay for it, and before anyone jumps to talk about Shale / Zaeed DLC, those were cutted from orginal game and were there allready out on release date.

I havent tried the new hammerhead missions yet, propably will play ME2 again once the kasumi DLC gets released, I dont mind free content even if its not that great, timesink is allways a timesink

To be honest I'm pretty tired of people saying "well it's free so don't expect anything great" It's seriously stupid. So what... BioWare should be known for having disappointing free content? No, that's why people point out what's disappointing, it's called feedback, and feedback is used to improve content

Everytime I come here I feel like cutting my wrists and bleed out.

Wow and I thought the complaining about complaining was bad...Emo responses are 10x worse.

[MisterClapTrap]

I've played three out of the five Hammerhead missions and, while I'm usually inclined to overlook errors or slips, I couldn't do so this time. The Firewalker DLC is simply the most insulting piece of DLC anyone has ever managed to provide. Did you guys fire your game designers (and your common sense along with them)? What's with all the jumping around and hovering about the place to gather minerals? What's with all this happening in almost every mission? What about the very interesting reflecting ball returning from ME1 that simply drops to the ground somewhat resembling Nibbler™ poo?

What I see is "Pinnacle Station" re-edited.

[newcomplex]

I don't really care. The game was fun, hope ME3 was better, free DLC are a silly marketing ploy, except Zaeed....

Played 20 minutes of it and went back to playing SC2 beta ^____^



Ill wait for Witcher 2 for my next RPG fix I guess.     Witcher>Dragon Age.

I'm tired of this answer too. People don't like the Hammerhead but say "wtf, it's free ?". Please, remember Cerberus Network is not a free gift. The fact that you get it free with a new game only means it's actually like it was part of the original game you paid 60 bucks.

So, I would advise you give your actual feeling rather the fanboyist "it's free".

[Nolenthar]

I would also say that so far, according to this poll : http://social.biowar...505/polls/3664/

47 % are disappointed (rating from D to F).
19% have a neutral feeling (rating : C)
35% enjoyed the DLC.

I'm quite sure it's the worst ME2 CN DLC so far.

Actually two very different games, but I agree. The Witcher 2 is my most anticipated game so far.
I regret that Bioware is being outperformed in RPG category by other companies. They used to be the best ...

[Vanilla Delights]

It was quite fun.



Great driving mechanics

Good level design

OK story



What I really don't get is people complaining about free DLC...

[tango jack]

I feel this DLC is only the begining for the hammerhead and we can expect more to come from it in the future.

All the missions where short  but contained all that was required to learn how to use it when the longer mssions become available and I believe where designed with that in mind.

On what people have said so far I can agree with some but not others as i found myself becoming quite comfortable with controls by the 2nd mission and found them more intuative than the mako ever was  ( and i could drive that really well).

I was not expecting a lot of interaction with the main storline in the free content but I think we will have paid content in the future that will and I personally have no problem with paying for missions as long as they have interesting storylines and unique dialogue.

My thoughts as asked.

[The Masked Rog]

I for one am fairly satisfied with this DLC. I think that the gameplay is quite different from what we were used too with the Mako back in ME1 and the general gameplay in ME2. For me, it's kind of a fun liittle mini-game to play when you don't really want to go and help that crazy merc or the genetic altered, spoiled lady.

[PseudoEthnic]

This thing made me miss the Mako quick(which is an achievement in of itself.) The controls are awful, and the vehicle is weak as hell! Please BioWare, stick to RPGs and TPS's, but stay away from driving!
