Marluxia is this game good??? i dont want to waste downloads on a game i might regret ;o


I downloaded it today and I like it. There are a few things I will say though. For some odd reason I jumped in there thinking the game would be similar to CoD, I was so wrong. It plays out a little like CoD 2, but the AI in here are something different. At anywhere from about 200 meters and farther they are oblivious to you and your squad, I have even fired at a few from that range and they just ran in circles or tried to hide, but when I got to about 100 meters the AI seemed like it was in "god mode" getting shot at when I thought I was safe and I was losing squad members, but as soon as you get up close to them, they will either try to attack you or just sit and stare for a little bit. I like that each time you die, you will spawn back in as another squad member (if you have more) and will get a different "class" each time. I've only played 3 hours of it, but I like it and I got it for free, so even better. Later on in the game you will become a squad leader so you can give orders to your squad and it changes the play style of just run and gun through buildings and fields, actually puts some strategy in it. If anything you should try it out since it's free and if you don't like it, could always delete it. Real quick though, you will die a lot in this game when getting used to it. My first mission I lost over 50 squad members, 30 of which I think were from me dying, however the next few missions I was losing about 20 squad members with about 3-10 deaths from me.


Your the first person ive ever met that has actually played the campaign for this game. Play multiplayer. The multiplayer is what has been winning so many awards.


I tend to play campaigns on games first to get the feel for the game and because I like to play the story. I'm going to be jumping into multiplayer soon enough, but I'm going to finish a few more missions on the campaign before I try out multiplayer.


Well not trying to put you down but multiplayer is the main part of the game. I am probably one of the only people on this site to have played the original Red Orchestra and that did not even have a campaign.

Download it on your PC, there's often some free games i think you would love!


My PC is currently being bought. Then i'm sending it off to be built, so as soon as i get it i will be downloaded most things? Do you have to pay?


Steam is free, you don't have to pay to have a Steam account or anything like that. Steam always has deals for games and will sometimes give out free games like this one. On Christmas 2013, they gave out Left 4 Dead 2 for free and I got that because I was planning on buying it, but it was free so why not. There are free to play games on Steam as well, most popular would probably be TF2. Price for games vary, but there are Steam sales and also when you complete a card set on Steam and earn a badge for it, you will get a random coupon for a certain percentage off of a game with I think 90% being the highest percent you can get off a game.

NatusVincere Hey it's free why not give it a try.


Not for long though! If you like it looks like you're going to have to buy it ;)
