Hotline Miami 2: Wrong Number

Pros : 1. More complex story, more immersive, great athmosphere, more action 2 .More characters to play, each with different style of combat and motivation, which will make you take different approach in finishing the levels. My favourite is Evan the Writer and Alex & Ash. 3. Better Graphics 4. More challenging levels and fun scenario (like in a boat, fighting thugs on a subway using non-lethal force) 5. GREAT soundtrack, can't stop listening to it Cons : 1. Control is unoptimized, especially the mouse, it's not so smooth and make aiming harder 2. Bugs : sometimes enemy is stuck in doorway makes it harder to hit, dogs also spinning around on certain occasion 3. The game is harder and many of the areas are larger and took longer to complete. It's fine for me but I think it's a bit too much on some part that makes restarting the level tedious. Combined with unoptimized mouse control, this really hurt my hand. 4. Enemies can shoot from far away past our vision area, I think they should lower their vision range or increase ours. Some enemies are placed badly. 5. Thus, point 3 & 4 above ruins the game pacing in certain part. Overall, I really enjoy the game and will surely replay it again and again. Looking forward for the user-created levels as well. Btw, I'm using Windows 7 version and so far I experience no crash at all.

I can't really play it on my Retina MacBook, even after the last update it keeps crashing. Hopefully the next update will solve the issues.

Mouse smoothing What the fuck were they thinking?

As far as I was able to play I'd say it really is a worthy sequel and an awesome game. Unfortunately I've had serious issues with the stability of the game on my Mac. It keeps crashing although all the hardware requirements are fullfilled. Hopefully an update will solve this anytime soon!

That maybe, just like how The Fans are a not-so-subtle critique on the people who clamored for more Hotline Miami and guys like The Reporter are comments on people who wanted non-violent levels, the 'bugs' and 'changes' are, you know, more comments and critiques on the fan-base and the genre? I mean, I didn't have a problem with this game and I didn't even finish the first one for being just too damn hard. Considering the patches so far have been for stability and real bugs, you'd think that if the things already mentioned weren't meant to be there they'd be gone by now.
