Close Combat: First to Fight starts off nicely with allowing you to change hud options for a more real experience but stops right there. The graphics are shown to be very polished in screenshots and such but they are nothing like ingame graphics even on the highest settings. A.I. animations are glitchy at times and your teams lierally moves as one not as their own seperate soldiers but as one clump of 3 marines. The tutorial sounded cool, I thought bootcamp would be more realistic but no, it was just videos of gameplay... The enemy A.I. is highly laughable because you can just run and gun through all the levels without stopping for cover even on Marine mode (3rd of 4 difficulties). While the concept is a good one the makers just failed in this Marine based FPS.
