The answer, whatever answer that may be, could be an obvious but given what's been said on the threads in regards to some bugs, while I've been dying to just get HD/Fury for a number of reasons...I'm curious to the opinions of fellow pilots here.
As for why I want HD/Fury, besides again having a long-term interest in the series, but only recenlty having had a means to try and purchase a game within reach (since Pulse for the PS2 is European only...*growls*...), Fusion (for all it's criticism) is on that list and HD/Fury is a potential given I've got (some) access to a Playstation 3.
Another reason is that because I'd also be able to get quite the references to every ship in every form. While I have been able to find what references I could (including someone who was generous enough to leave out for anyone to get, a folder of the varying HD/Fury craft, but not all of em, most glaringly the Fury EG-X among others...but still it's been useful to say the least), I grow tired of searching and I'd rather just get the game(s) and be done with it.
Reason 3 is again, just so I can play and see what's what, while I've played the Demo with Feisar on Vineta K for a total time of 4+ hours, trying to get more of a handle on such techniques as side-shift, and Barrel Rolling, as well as just being a fast, consistent pilot period (racing more akin to wolfgang van uber's ideals than actually using the offensive or defensive weapons). Given the issues that seem to be coming up according to some users...I'm wondering if I should get it at all or wait...
Granted at the end of the day, I need to make up my own mind...but I am curious to the opinions of other pilots here.
