This is an interesting game because it does something that hasn't been done in a while. It brings back the tactical shooter. My friends and I just got this because of the super low price and because we are very interested in teamwork and coop. This game looked like something we all really wanted. A welcome change from the run-n-gun FPS like COD or Battlefield. A game where you take your time, work together and keep your teammates safe.

In some respects it delivers on the promise. In others it fails miserably.

I will recommend this game at the *CURRENT* 90% off pricing. I would not recommend it at any price above $9.99 in its current form.

THE GOOD
Co-op mode that allows up to six players to work together to achieve the goals of the map.
Large weapon/kit loadout selection.
Weapon firing modes, weapon lean.
Good, detailed maps.


THE BAD
The loadout system doesn't work in-game. We all tried to change our kits and weapon loadouts and every time we entered a co-op game we had the same loadout we started with. Very frustrating. This needs to be changed.

The AI is really bad. Sometimes they have no idea you're right in front of them. In other instances they kill you first shot from long distance or immediately after they open a door. Sometimes if you just poke your head around a corner your instantly dead. The AI is just not realistic at all.

The sound isn't as directional as it should be and in many instances just not correct. I've thrown grenades down a stairwell into a doorway and hardly even heard the muffled explosion. I hear people talking and yelling from other floors and it sounds like they're right behind you.


THE UGLY
Don't expect BF4 or COD: Ghosts level graphics. The graphics and lighting are both very mediocre.

Character animation isn't realistic. When you kills a character they look like they're legs are broken. Really low-level rag-doll physics.

The AI is broken. Like I said above sometimes they shoot you in a split second just when you peak around a corner and sometimes they have no idea where you are at all.

I don't believe there is any lightness/darkness AI. I've crouched in the dark and the AI still sees me.


I commend this company for moving in this direction and I hope they can improve this game in the future. I look forward to more games that try to accomplish the goal of this game supporting co-op and multiplayer in a tactical shooter.
