I played seige mode for the first time last night and after about 5 games. I must admit that my first impressions arnt that high :(
I believe this is partly that I'm not very good at the mode, and/or the fact I was with Randoms against seemingly organised teams.

When playing as a zombie it takes most of your time just getting to the area with the survivors to just get insta killed. Then after a long respawn time later your in the last half of the game.
I don't know why but the enemy teams agent was regenning health but the agent we had wasn't?

When it was our turn everyone seemed to be trying to control the agent leading to conflicted path finding which left him wide open.
However in another match the zombies started closer than we did so by the time we got to the agent the zombies were all over him. And he was pinned in the corner by 3! Whoppers so basically just about instantly died.

I would say its unbalanced but I lost easily on both teams, so I just need more practice I guess.

But like predator mode, I think the time limit is too short, and better zombie movement is needed.
When your playing as survivors you attack wherever your aiming the camera, zombies have tank controls and only attack the direction their facing which doesn't help since turning as a zombie is deadly slow.
Javo is a slight improvement but more or less a similar story.


Random observation:
Why do so many players in mercs, onslaught, survivors, predator and seige randomly kick you for no reason?
I dislike joining games sometimes because when I join a lobby I just get kicked randomly? Why open a lobby if your going to keep it private? That's Wht private slots are for!
 
The mode surely is hectic, I mean there are like a dozen creatures instantly on the battlefield and in some maps they can get to the agent before you do. It surely is different and keeps you on your toes, organization is a must in this mode, not surprised there are teams.
 
Yeah
Its a shame I don't know anyone who still plays this game. All y friends traded it in back In January xD
 
i hate playing as zombies/javos.They handle terrible. When i first heard of Seige I believed it would be 3 vs 3 (all players not javos). Instead its another damn Left4 dead play as a baddy clone. Hate that crap. A better idea would have been whoever wins one round is the VIP next round.

Another idea is that if they want to force us to play terrible zombies make them move faster and actually turn. Or add an 'infection' mode. Infection modes are designed for this kind of play as a enemy scenario,. thats where one player starts as a zombie/javo and when he kills a player, the player becomes zombie. the last guy standing wins.

I wont play this mode anymore cos of that. that and damn quickshots. I hope they never, ever use quickshots again.
From the first time i shot a quickshot in the demo i knew it was a very terrible idea. All the multiplayer modes apart from Onslaught are very broken and ive wrote so many times how to fix them i give up hope. lol.
 
I was VERY disapointed at Siege I was pretty damn upset on what kind of A.I they used as well...

It's fun if you don't play stages like UC or SB

Rooftop Mission,Creature Workshop and Liquid Fire are the most fun for me

Same goes for all modes

Onslaught the best is Catacombs in my oppinion

I think the 'Siege' mode is pretty fun, but I always have a bitch of a time getting games! As far as the extra content goes, I'm all about 'Predator' mode. It's equally fun to romper stomp your way through a group of agents and to totally unload on Ustanak. I really like to fight him with a knife!
