This game reminds me of a 3rd person shooter version of Bad Company.
Why do people keep saying that? Mercenaries did the destruction thing long before Bad Company. You should really be referencing Red Faction :D
It's an open world so it's a bit like GTA with destruction.
People are saying it because there are explosions everywhere and buildings crumbling in Bad Company.
Liberty City is like New York, but the setting in Mercenaries 2 looks nothing like The Big Apple. The open world looks more like the original Mercenaries.
Mercenaries was before Bad Company, and Mercenaries 2 was also in development before Bad Company. You can't compare the two anyway, Bad company is more like Red Faction than any other game.
It's not the city, it's the open world factor. A lot of games with open worlds get labeled as GTA clones these days. So saying the setting looks nothing like GTA IV (and I wasn't just including that game, I was including the entire GTA series) is pointless. I did say it was 'a bit like' so, when I'm referencing GTA I'm referencing the open world factor and not what the environment looks like.
I already knew Mercs and Mercs 2 was before Bad Company. Who was comparing those games? I wasn't comparing anything. Yes, you are right the Red Faction comparison though.
I see now what you meant about the open worldliness. Ass Creed has a similar open world style.
