Wolfenstein: Youngblood PC Performance Review

Thanks.



TL DR - Performance is good ;-)


Rumor has it, that the single player missions cannot be paused ... can you confirm this? It's a absolute deal-breaker for me.

Maybe in Co op they cant. Or maybe its because of Co op. Makes sense though.

It doesn't pause. You can usually keep running for a, to a safer section of the map, and pause, but the game carries on as normal.

This game is designed for co-op, so it makes sense why the game works this way. I agree that is is very annoying for single-player play.
 
I heard it's poo. When I jump on pc later I'll stick a link in to a YT vid. I'm just glad it was pretty cheap really though I'll admit I've not installed it yet as I'm waiting for my fibre to be connected.

It may be that it's fine tbh. I just think the annoying bits sound really annoying. It's not like they are aiming it at women but rather immature young girls. Which may find a niche, but certainly not with me. I've been married to two lol.

This series lost me with the new colossus. That game sucked so hard I couldn't bear it for more than 10 minutes. This entire franchise lost the plot COMPLETELY.

Yeah that was a poor attempt tbh. That's graphics for you though. Bethesda seem to really struggle with engines. It's like they can make a pretty game, but the levels are absolutely tiny. They really need to work on that. Part of what made the reboot so good was the enormous worlds you had. It's like we went two steps forward and then five steps back ffs.

For me, it was the AWFUL, and OVER SERIOUS stupid story. It was so laughably bad that I couldn't take it. ID seems to have forgotten ENTIRELY was Wolfenstein was about! It isn't SUPPOSED to be serious, it's a SHOOTER FFS! Jeebus, imagine if they made another Duke Nukem game, but turned it into a drama. The story would start off with Duke in a "misogyny rehab" centre, crying to a therapist about his years of mistreatment of women. That's basically what Wolfenstein has turned into.

TBH I'm more hyped for DOOM Eternal. They really set the proper tone in DOOM 2016.

Amen!! That is the reboot REALLY done PROPERLY to bring the franchise into newer tech. That's the way is SHOULD have been done with Wolfenstein.

I hear a lot of people saying that they wish TNC, and by extension Youngblood, was more like The New Order and Old Blood.

With Youngblood I'm more excited about seeing the Raytracing patch than I am about playing the rest of the game. I have limited game time and I'd rather play something else.

Thanks. I've also learned, that there is no or very poor checkpoint saves so people report loosing 30-60 minutes of progress when being killed. Looks like they tried to make a coop game into a single player game with a few quick fixes rather than doing the actual work needed. Fixing both issues, however, seems to be really easy and fast so why it like this I cannot understand.



It pains me not getting the latest Wolfenstein game now (I've been with the series since the original back in in 1981) but will likely pick it up at half price, that should come soon seeing the tons of bad user reviews. 2.6 on Metacritic. Yikes!
 
Looks like reading this has saved me some money...just to clarify, you really need another person to join you in this game and you then go out and kill as a team?

The game is playable in single player, but it is designed with multiplayer in mind. It is best played with someone else.
