Is the game even any good?. Bought the game years ago on Steam and never booted it.
it is pretty good. a very solid shooter and even tho it at first looks like a Gears clone, the longer you play and the better you get the less you will use the cover system.
it's all about how you dismantle the enemy robots, depending on what part of their bodies you destroy first they will act in different ways and you can use that to your advantage, and if you are good at it you will never need to use cover again.
the PC version is sadly a bit shit, like many games that were ported during the PS360 era. but it runs well... it just has some issues with keybindings, displaying said bindings and with super obvious pop-in if you play at modern resolutions.
at 720p you don't notice that as much, but LOD changes literally happen 1 meter in front of you often
