Good Game... But There is problems
Game Play: From the tutorial video on the main menu, the game developer tells us instruction to play the game. The game actually based on "Authentic" squad fire and maneuver tactic which mean the only way to achieve victory by suppress and flank the enemy. You play as Sgt. Mat Baker a squad leader and you be given 2 squad to command and each squad there is 3 members:
First Squad is Assault Squad...the name tell you everything. This squad armed with Tommy gun and you will mostly use this squad to kill the enemy.
Second Squad is Fire Squad…1st time play this game… is hard to understand why this squad been called that way. This squad armed with long range rifle like M1 Carbine. You will use this squad to suppress the enemy. Non-stop firing at the enemy, they doesn't care if they hit them or not they just keep their fire on the enemy while you using Assault Squad to flank the enemy behind, left or right.
Some mission you be given an armor tank which you can give an orders to move any where you want or to attack the enemy or you can mount on top of the tank which there is machine gun there
Worst Part Is
Weaponry System: You can carry 2 weapon. Most of the mission you started with M1 Carbine rifle and Thomson assault rifle but there is some mission you be given Springfield sniper rifle which is good to shoot at enemy form far with one shot. Just like Call Of Duty, you can swap your weapon with any enemy's weapon.
But there is a lot a problems to shoot at the enemy while "Aiming down the side". Unlike Call Of Duty which aiming down the side actually good tactic that give you good perspective view at the enemy for you to shoot them, but at Brother In Arms… your gun keep moving around too much. If you take a moment and look at the edge of the rifle while aiming down the side, you could see it drew a diamond shape while it moving. It getting worst that it moving 5 cm away from your real aiming point. I knew that because I measure it. (680X480) And Panzerfaust missile always goes down went you try to shoot up.
Throwing grenade causing delay about 7 second. That is awful lateness much worst is that you can`t press and hold grenade button and release it to throw the grenade. Unlike Call Of Duty, you can press and hold the grenade button and release it will make you throw the grenade at the enemy to reduce the delaying time while your character unplug the grenade's pin. So if you want to throw a grenade in Brothers In Arms you have to press grenade button and wait 7 second for Sgt. Mat Baker to throw a grenade.
Healing System: You cannot heal in this game… That is the truth… well there is option that will ask your to heal you and your squad but you have to died 3 time in the row…If I died 3 time in the row I already shut the game down…When your squad mate died there is no way to resurrect them unless you complete your mission objective and end the mission.
To End The Mission: After you complete your mission objective to end your mission you have to find someone to talk to..now why I have to do that… I just kill all the German I just want to move on next level.
After all the game just OK… is not bad, is not good, it's just OK… with the story line that they try to tell us about an airborne that stuck on Normandy, France on 1944 with "based on the true story" I think they better make a movie out of this not a video game…
