Description
Not all wars are fought on the open battlefield. Download The Saboteur to visit 1940s Nazi-occupied Paris, as you play tough Irish racecar mechanic Sean Devlin. Working with the French Resistance, Sean is out for revenge against ruthless Nazi Colonel Kurt Dierker, who executed Sean’s best friend.

This open-world action thriller takes you through the seedy streets of Paris as you seek to undermine the German authority and lead a rebellion. Fight across rooftops and through dangerous alleys, and operate a wide variety of vehicles as you navigate your terrain. You can even climb the Eiffel Tower or Notre Dame Cathedral for a sniping mission.

Use stealth and disguise to strike at the heart of the Nazi war machine by disabling trains, destroying bridges, and blowing up enemy facilities. As you work to remove the oppressive forces from parts of the city, the drab black-and-white palette gives way to bright colors, signifying that you’ve inspired the townspeople. The more you incite the people, the more they’ll aid you by intervening in fights or providing a quick getaway from pursuing Germans. The Saboteur presents a fresh take on World War II and features dramatic cinematic elements. The action and intrigue is yours to experience via download on the PC now.

Key features:

  • First Ever Open-World Paris — Climb the Eiffel Tour, snipe from Notre Dame Cathedral, and brawl on the Champs d’Elysee as you sabotage your enemies. Fight, climb, and prowl through the dark alleys, rooftops, burlesque houses, and seedy streets of the City of Lights — the ultimate playground for the Saboteur.
  • The Art of Sabotage — Being the Saboteur is all about attacking while staying unnoticed. Get your mission intel at underground clubs and cabarets. Eliminate your adversaries with stealth attacks, disguise, distractions, and explosives. Master a variety of weapons, automobiles, and skills to sabotage enemy operations.
  • The Will to Fight — An action-packed experience and thrilling storyline are made even more engaging by an innovative visual style, characters, and the new “Will to Fight” technology. Experience how the city reacts and changes around you as you free it from Nazi oppression. Only you can restore hope and grandeur to Paris.
  • French Resistance Strikes — Call for support from The Underground in the form of getaway cars, weapon deliveries, distractions, and much more.

A GTA 4 clone with a great fun factor

In short, the most fun elements in the game are satisfying missions and the environmental destruction elements á la Red Faction that actually affects the gameplay. It is simply very fun to destroy those Nazi installations to create your own Nazi free zones. The biggest boon of this game is that it cuts down on the annoying and boring elements such as the cops in GTA 4 that will get you and make you feel like fighting them is pointless. In this game, shooting Nazis is definitely easier than in GTA 4, though the whole process is an overall fun experience to the point that dying is completely your own fault and you will not feel bad about dying. The most vital part of any game is the gameplay. The Saboteur has insanely fun gameplay. It is hard to not enjoy this game as it doesn't try to be too realistic to keep the fun factor consistent. All cars are useful and the same applies to the common weapons (clearly you cannot fight for long with a 3-shot bazooka). There are glitches with slow systems e.g. a world holes that swallow cars in front of the player rarely when the game is loading textures, though you can kill the glitching by dropping the screen resolution. Just use the VideoSetup.exe in the game directory and edit "VSync 0" into config.ini for decent performance. You can even edit in the 640 x 480 resolution that kills 90% of the glitching. Some of the glitching is hilarious. E.g. watching cars fall into a river because the game was loading bridge textures was madly hilarious. Dropping the resolution killed most of that glitch. I have played GTA4 and I would pick The Saboteur 10 times out of 10 . In comparison, there is no environmental destruction elements even in the much-heralded GTA 5 and I would pick this game even over that game. The game lives up to its name "The Saboteur" to an extreme extent to the point you can destroy massive train bridges and entire Nazi bases in it. In fact, "Saboteur" is what the Nazis refer to the player as.

Good game, but it gets repetitive fast

It has an excellent and engaging story, but it gets repetitive and tiresome. There are not that many ways of tackling a mission, and there are literally hundreds of side objectives to complete which basically involve blowing something up. And you need to complete a fair bit of them to unlock better weapons and equipment.

Unique, open world title set during WWII

I mostly play open world and sandbox games. Unfortunately for me, I also like human history but it's difficult to find historical open world games. For instance, I bought Assassin's Creed just because I like to go around "historical" locations. Needless to say, when I discovered The Saboteur I could not stop myself from buying it. So what do you do in this game? You're part of the French resistance and take the role of a historical Irish character in Paris. Your job? To kill as many nazis as possible. Cool, but how is the game? The Saboteur is a good game, but it fails to deliver a truly consistent experience. This is explained by the fact that while there are several options to tackle objectives, the more viable approach is usually brute force. I tried to use stealth, however this game does not really suits this kind of playstyle. Too often enemies will see you behind a tree or you will have to face too many nazis at once. Stealth requires real planning and even some luck. This game is easy to play but hard to master. There is a main storyline, giving some break from your typical open world experience. There are also upgrades, many historical weapons and hundreds of "free-play targets" all over the city. I personally like The Saboteur but it's difficult to say "oh yeah, you should buy it". Sometimes it's a mixed bag and there is a strange learning curve, even though the game is supposed to be "casual". Optimization is not too good for some reason and I experienced few crashes here and there. For 5-10 bucks? I would reccomend it.
