Great idea, had trouble with controls
I actually really liked Syndicate-style graphics and atmosphere. Game is nice, music is good. Idea behind having robots walking around and wrecking everything around is cool as well! But there was one big minus for me, and that's controls. After several campaign levels I just gave up. WASD movement was just too unintuitive for me. Vast majority of games I played have this simple idea of going forward (W) where vehicle is facing, steering left and right with A and D and having breaks/backwards movement with S. However in this game movement is not related to vehicle, but to it's position on the map. W doesn't mean go "forward" with robot, but to go "up" on the screen. I was just unable to get used to it, making me unable to manage movement without thinking while focusing on aim and overall tactics. The necessity to still also keep in mind how to go where I want added another layer to focus on.
