ehmm no not at all do you guys played the beta version? where is the boxshot?
2 ALL the levels are awesome, thatswhat the game is known for
3 no major bugs the only thng i spotted is that some times SOME SPECIFIC levels crash durng loadsceens, well nothing stops you from running the game again and and laoding that level again (its 100% sure it wont crash) or you can apply the patch!
4 IT GOT TO BE LONG so since then in 2005 we get short games! but this is long, appreciate it !
5 quicksave and load is quick unlike brother in arms that takes ages and it still does even in new pcs but phychotoxic loads right away!
6 graphs, i wonder in what crappy pc and what vga used as you can see in the screenshots the graphs are FAR better than brother in arms that came at the same date so tell me look at the screenshots and tell me which one looks better? hell this game got good physiques if you blow something up it will break , and boxes and corpses will fly on the air, juddgin by this game good perfomance and ageia physx high requirements fo the same physiques while i think those were amazing , eg brother in arms came out at th same time but it didnt even have physiques!, bulletholes are cool too!
7 sound ok voice acting kinda suck but so does in brother in arms i mean these guys say one two words like they reading it from a book!!! they dont even act they sound mega fake, at some points...jesus AOUCH MY EARS, lol i mean lol its funny!
but the ambient sounds are cool and scary, while at the same time you dont even hear the birds flying or the sea wave in crysis!!!!!! so i guess that does it, ALSO the musisc is pretty cool both the music at the menus and the levels, damn new games dont even have music!
8 story you got angela prophet which is one of the coolest female characters i ever seen and you are at the beggining of armagedon in new york, turns out that you are muhc more important than you think, (i wont spoil the story) and you gotta stop the leader of a cult, needless to say that its in new york and a cult in aramgedon is really cool, so it turns into a conspiracy and police fbi and swat chase you, hmm kinda reminds matrix,
9 level design, well the inside areas are all inspired from hal life th best fps ever and the snowy new york aleys areas(imagine all that action back there) are really cool or all that chase inside the buidings and rooftops or a level that reminds matrix or the warehouse in the docks from which you go to a frgate full of soldiers, after you descand with a crane, or the next level that you are on a chopper with a machinegun!!! or the central park level! OR the dream levels like hell that beats the crap out of doom 3 hell leve or the inside the dream level or pain, the torture level that a scream like serial killer chases you inside a old hotel...in your dreams!!!!! or the atlantis level that after it you get inside the naftilus submarine!!!! so tell me what is better this or the doom 3 and fear lame similar corridos or the brother in arms green landscape thats filled with bushes to create cover? or the crysis almost but not quite jungle areas?
WE TALKING ABOUT THE BEST LEVELS EVER!
10 the gameplay, you run around in order ot avoid getting hit two pistol hits are enouth to kill an enemy and 3 for armored, ofcourse there elite oponets, the game has 25 levels maybe more while crysis eg has 11 ! the gamepaly dosnt have any puzzles just move and shoot like doom 3
OLDSCHOOL GAMEPLAY NO REALISM there also pickups like invisible anda armor or slo mo, yes it aint power so its kinda lame and yes the ending is lame and yes the sneak in airforce one is lame, but hey you giht in airforce, about bugs i cant recal anything maybe cuz it doesn have anything annoying like problems with checkpoints in turok!
One of the Best fps i eve played!
IF you like oldschool fps that is !
very simmialr to half life 1 not 2 nad quake 2!
