Pathogenesis 最近的评测

10 YEARS AND YOU STILL CAN'T JOIN THE SAME FACTION WITH YOUR GROUP - that's not even the worst part but this game doesn't deserve more time or words.

TLDR: Just an annoying scam demo - you can't even play on your OWN LOCAL server without an interrupted connection to their servers, servers that they keep up barely 1 hours per day. It's not worth more than a couple cents. Certainly not half a Benjamin.
AND EVEN IF you mange to start a game, it will last 15 minutes as most then it will crash.

There is pretty much not a single improvement over Arma 3, quite the contrary actually.
- A live connection with their server is pretty much required at all times, you can't connect even to your own local server if their servers are down (see point 4)
- Want mods? Keep wanting, you are now forced to managed them via their own Mod Manager, that doesn't work most of the time and when it works it requires an absolutely perfect connection to their servers (see point 4)
- Want ANY kind of customization? Not in reforger ma boi, even for something simple like a custom scenario on a server you have to go through the Mod Manager with its limitations (see point 4)
- The servers are down 99% of the time (in the last week they were up ~10 hours in total)
- While one could pretend that the engine is in any way better, the feel of the game is hundred times more arcade than before, it's like playing Arma 3 upside down, with your left hand on the mouse and the right hand on the keyboard
- Sound cues are absurdly bad, there is no correlation between what is happening in-game with the sounds you hear: are you firing a gun? With ZERO sync between shots and audio, you will hear a random MP3 of a gun firing at 2 rounds per second.
- The UI is pretty much unusable, ever single interaction doesn't work, does the opposite of what it says or is just bad UX
- The technical documentation is missing, incorrect or almost impossible to find - not that it matters, they keep changing their APIs as if they were diapers
- This list is going to be too long so let me just summarize it with: there is not a single characteristic of this game, NOT ONE, that is positive. Every single choice they made, from the product perspective, from an engineering perspective or from a UX perspective is just maliciously bad.

If this is even remotely a hint at what is bound to happen with Arma 4 brace yourself, not even Ubisoft and Beteshda combined could something this bad.

Great game, some time ago.
Now it's just 90% crashes, 5% loading screens and 5% actual gameplay.

Just bad, has nothing to do with the original Dawn of War saga

Pretty much just a music player

If Destiny 2 and Warframe had a kid that was dropped on the head.
CrashSimulator 2.

Unfortunately its fan base is made of kids that don't have the skills to play any real game nor the brain to understand what's going on. Imagine being brainwashed by the dystopian propaganda of a game.

Update at 50h: yup still an absolute abomination.
Update at 100h: 10% role-playing "let's pretend it's a decent game" on one of the two maps, 20% "Host disconnected", 20% looking at the "Report Problem" screen after a hard crash, 20% being stuck in the loading/landing screen, 20% reading the list of bugs they have ignored for months ("Known Issues", they cover the majority of patch notes) so they can drop some more useless junk they hope you'll drop 10 fiddy for and finally 10%, the best part, reading all the copium

Interactive wallpaper cosplaying as a game but failing at it.

A good idea made a joke.
SWAT 4, almost 20 years ago had better mechanics and AI.

Can be played exclusively in Co-op, the singleplayer part is a placeholder.

Requires DLCs for achievements

A nice way to try out the Steam Deck.
