   I bought the game for the multiplayer and I'm very satisfied. I read a lot of people bad talking about the single player and campaign but whoI bought the game for the multiplayer and I'm very satisfied. I read a lot of people bad talking about the single player and campaign but who plays this game single player anyway? I've played single player for a few hours just to learn the basics then went straight to multiplayer. The game is really good and deserves better review. My rate to this game is a solid 9 just because there are a couple of things that need some polishing, just some details.… Expand

   Kinda hard to follow what's going on the screen compared to BB1, the weird camera angles, the counter-intutive UI.

It's certainly prettier than it's roots, and looks more polished, but I find it really hard to navigate and long league matches would benefit from some visual representation of your progress.… Expand

   Unless interested in Multiplayer do not buy! The AI is terrible and the campaign limited to only Humans.

   Probably one of the most annoying PC game franchises in history, Blood Bowl 2 puts new graphics on Cyanide's first game and otherwise makesProbably one of the most annoying PC game franchises in history, Blood Bowl 2 puts new graphics on Cyanide's first game and otherwise makes the same non-effort at adapting what is a very good idea and a good board game into a computer game. For the first few hours it's fun, as you develop a team and learn the game. But at some point it dawns on you that BB2 just isn't much of a game. It's flashy graphics, silly commentary and unbalanced RPG/turn based strategy. It should be good but refuses to be.
   
   There are three modes of play. The first is a campaign/tutorial that forces you to play human, which is an instant turnoff because humans are a bad team. The second is single player mode, a completely pointless endeavor, because half the teams are so squishy that they are useless for long term play for you, while the NPC apparently has no problems at all playing them, no matter how many of their players you kill or maim. And this is really the big problem with offline play in this game. Everything you do is pointless because you never gain a competitive advantage over the AI teams. If your team is more valuable, the AI simply gives itself ludicrous amounts of money before the game to even the scales. But your team is never cheaper than the AI team because the game balances all the opponents to your level. It's just awful, awful game design and kills the RPG aspect of the game completely.
   The third game mode is obviously online multiplayer. And this is also completely pointless except for the twelve people who do nothing but play the game online. Any casual BB player or just normal person will be stomped endlessly and have no fun at all.
   The game also runs poorly, has excessive loading times and many lazy design decisions. For example: all the fans are humans, regardless of which race you're playing. And so are the cheerleaders. And none of them match their colors to your uniforms in home games, or to the opposing team's in away games. Why not? This sounds like it should have taken about half an hour of programming to fix, so why hasn't it been?
   
   With Chaos League and Blood Bowl preceding it, Blood Bowl 2 marks the grave of the failed attempts at translating the Blood Bowl board game into a video game. Each one has been more pathetic than the last because the people making these games apparently have no clue how to actually make video games. What is the point of this awful game? It can't be for single player gaming because it isn't balanced for that, or apparently intended for it in any way. And it can't be multiplayer either because that is an unbalanced pile of trash, where a handful of lifeless people live all day in the hopes of finding a noob they can make request a refund by destroying their team.
   There is nothing here for anyone except a small group of diehard weirdos. And they only like it because they know how to game the multiplayer and win every match.
   There is almost no meaningful management of your team, no real tactical control because it is based on dice rolls and no persistent league structure. Just knockout cups you can repeat endlessly until you go mad. And you can't even see the brackets. It's just so, so lazy and bad all round. But of course a persistent league structure and long term play would be pointless anyway, because most of the teams are too squishy and expensive to sustain for more than a few games. Try playing elves, when you will usually lose three to five players to injury or death pr game, each costing 80 000+, when your income is about 40 000 pr game. Great design people! Just awesome. And to hammer home how lazy the developers are, there are no longer visible upgrades on players as they develop. This was in the first Blood Bowl game btw. But what the hell, let's save a few bucks! Anyone who buys this crap is dumb as rocks anyway, so they probably won't even notice. All hail the bottom line!
   I was going to give this turd a 5, because it is alright for the first few hours until you realize that you've been fooled. But then I remembered Cyanide's obvious stripping of content with this release. Races are missing, features are missing etc. And you know they're gonna want to charge you for all of it later when their twelve customers have grown bored. Pay more money for another useless race for this trashy game? Suuuure....
   
   Here's a tip for you Cyanide: If you want to fleece your customers for content that should be in the game, make a good game first. Otherwise you're not going to have any customers to fleece. Business 101 there for you, and absolutely free, unlike what the halflings presumably will be. So to sum up: 1: Make good game, 2: Swindle stupid customers. It's very simple.
   
   Steer clear. Seriously.… Expand
