Alright, I couldn't sleep so I'm back and I played a bit of it. Other than some optimization issues, I'm having fun with it so far. Its got more story this time around, and I'm not sure how I feel about that since it seems real generic though so was Descent's, but the gameplay definitely feels smooth, framerate issues aside. They seem to have built the guide into you and that's probably the only aspect I absolutely hate. Granted, you don't have to use it and it turns off if you're low on energy since it uses some, but I feel having to find the guide so you could only use it if you really wanted to was the right way to go about it. Will post more as I get farther.

Additional notes after playing the release version:

Shit's even got working multiplayer, no dedicated servers though. The game overall very much feels like Descent in terms of enemy behavior and level design (Descent being Doom but with no up or down), though the enemy types feel considerably less bullshit as the more prominent hitscan enemy can only attack you with its pseudo-hitscan if it is close to you, and homing mine-dropping enemies aren't completely anal to deal with as opposed to something like the red hulks.

Biggest difference is that there's an upgrade system where you find upgrade points through secrets in the levels. Between levels you can upgrade your ship or weapons, though each upgrade feels substantial. For weapon upgrades you have a permanent choice to make between two different branches, like a faster rate of fire or a quadruple shot.

Apparently there's even a New Game+ mode which is basically Insane+ with more and tougher enemies on top of healing items yielding less, and you can't save mid-level in this mode.

There's also a story where you find audio logs to see what they have to say. Thankfully each log is about two or four lines long so it doesn't go on forever. I like that some audio logs are hidden away in secrets, too.

Anyways, shit's load of fun. I think a lot of people have been hankering for a FPS with good level design which isn't a blatant retro throwback, and I guess this one would fit the bill.

>How is the enemy visibility with modern graphics? Looking at the trailers I don't feel enemies "pop out" as much as they did in Descent.

Darkness plays a larger role in Overload than it did in Descent, so instead you will see the glowing eyes of bots in the dark. Their behinds are also marked with glowing pink thrusters so you can tell whether you are facing a bot from the front or behind. You have headlights to light up the area, but much like in FEAR enemies will be alerted to your presence if they spot your lights. Flares don't attract attention, but they also illuminate less.

In practice, I don't feel like I have any trouble spotting enemies, though the nature of the visual designs does make it difficult to tell certain types of bots apart.

Oh for fuck's sake, does every game these days have to be an RPG? The original Descent games were tons of fun without having to drip-feed you constant mini-rewards, playing the fucking game was the reward. It was just you, your joystick and the robots, no hamster wheels to spin.

I'm also one to constantly bitch about RPG systems in my rooty tooty shooting games, though I am paid to sincerely believe this is one of the few times it is done (somewhat) right. Since you can only upgrade between levels, you don't feel obliged to constantly pause the game and break the flow just to upgrade your shit. Some of the upgrade choices are like augs in Deus Ex in that you can only pick one which locks you out from the other option permanently, which does leave some value for replay and gives you an actual decision to make.

I dislike these systems because I like my games balanced and pure, but I hate these systems on the whole because they are all the same cookie-cutter unbalanced shit, where because of the resplendent amount of upgrade points you can have everything of use upgraded by the end of the game, so what you want to upgrade merely becomes a decision of what you want first. So there's no build variety or whatsoever, even though different character builds are the main draw of these upgrade systems.

However, Overload sidesteps this by introducing an additional upgrade currency called super upgrades, which are even rarer and harder to find upgrade points, but you need them to upgrade your primaries and secondaries to double-plus level (first you upgrade weapons to single-plus with regular upgrade points, then you can choose an upgrade branch with the double-plus upgrade). You need five super upgrade points for primaries and four for secondaries, and you can only find around five to seven per level (from the fourth level onwards), so the amount of weapons you can super-upgrade is limited by design. Meanwhile you can use the regular upgrades to spend it on ship upgrades. You'll feel stocked if you always manage to find most secrets in a level, though it makes sense for the upgrade points to be sufficiently balanced around players not finding that many secrets.

Unfortunately the ship upgrades aren't as interesting and don't have any cool branching upgrades. However you can cold start levels and try to complete levels with the default loadout by selecting missions from the main menu after having completed them once, if you're up to the challenge.

At this point it doesn't even really matter if the upgrade system is good. I have probably more RPGs than is healthy, so when I play a game that's not an RPG I play it precisely because it is not and RPG. Shoving RPG mechanics in every game makes it less interesting in a marketplace where every game is an RPG. Having an upgrade system might have been a cool hook when they were less frequently used.

>semi-random walls with no hints whatsoever

If you've ever played Descent, you'll actually develop a sense for where hidden walls will be placed in general once you figure out the "rules" for their placement, as triggering walls is as easy as shooting or bumping into them. Hidden walls will always be on flat surfaces, they always have a certain kind of texture, they have a slight depression compared to other walls, and they're generally never placed in the middle of huge flat stretches, and are more often placed near the end of things. If you 'feel' around for hidden doors and you get a message saying "Door locked!", that usually means you have to shoot a nearby switch to open it.
