this game is utter poop! You start this game after playing the first game which could be a masterpiece until the bomb disarming. THEN you start the game - the intro video is bad af. Looks like all boring Just Cause games and the gun gameplay is boring. It feels like a smartphone clone of Halo without fun or console port like Deus Ex 2 but less fun. It is not clear what to do. No one says you can destroy walls like in the first game. It is a cash grab (back in the day). Do not buy it. It is a waste of time.
I hate randomized mini games. Quick time events and memory games. When games do not even use the same 100 possibilites so I could look it up but are actually completly random then a game is for the trash doesnt matter how good a game is. I didnt see the cutscene because I had to mute the game and listen to music while disarming the biggest fart after Fallout 4 xD
This game gives me a Medal of Honor Allied Assault / Frontline feeling with some Sniper Elite 1 seriousness. In my opinion this game is better than any modern open world UBISOFT game. You play as an Irish mechanic who drives with his friends (french friends?) from a village in France to Germany to start his racing career. The best in the tournerment is a German who I guess also is the main antagonist... He makes your live hard at the start of the game and the war starts.... You get involved in the french resistance becuase [censored]... I wish this game design would be used in new Sniper Elite games because I rather prefer the realistic aproche in the first SE game. Since a lot of years I realize that more realistic games give me more fun except its like stupid fun in Serious Sam or COD 1 / Brothers in Arms. Bugs are a problem. It crashes when opening menus. Gladly it saves directly after mission with a quicksave. When pressing STATS it crashed. Cars can spawn in an area and block everything. Ghost cars... and more I just bought it 1 day ago so I cant say much more but THIS HOW GAMES NEED TO BE -> just basic. If a dev studio is new or just bad dont try to do the biggest game - just try basic things like Return To Castle Wolfenstein and then add mechanics after it feels good. I play it in 4k with a 1070 TI and it is just nice. I guess this game should be played on a CRT in 480p because this game is the first open world game (gta 4 has bad LOD or just a small world) that has near endless view range. The detail drops but you can spot towers and other objects to destroy from far away. Why did I recommend a CRT paired with a 970 for example? It is because the horizon of the sky and the horizon of the smoke or ground are different colors. You can find many old tricks from the bast but this game handles 4k sooo well without any problems.
I know the series is not a GTA game and I really think it is more like a max payne. My problems are the constant pop-ins of vehicle and enemies. Bad enemy placement like no way to destroy a tank or get your bro to let him show you his new tech ( next to him are 3 tanks and a health window of 15 secs). Later after a major event you drive in a beach buggy with 3 companions. you need to revieve them and driving a car is useless because they dont even get into the car because there is no pathfinding or teleporting when near to a car for npcs. The game feels older than GTA San Andreas so I dont like the whole level design and place holder / time wasters to get 12h when doing everything - I am still not done with the game... Time will increase.
This game was so good when I was young. I remember that I ve played it on a CRT monitor. 4k works great. Only the intro with dev names is small. I think the combat is better than the second game BUT I currently rage quit through the PS2 game, maybe its just the down scaled gameplay ?! QUOTE FROM PC Gaming Wiki Edit User.ini[3] Go to %APPDATA%\Gearbox Software\Brothers In Arms\\ Open user.ini. Define FoV in following lines: DesiredFOV=63.000000 DefaultFOV=63.000000 Notes Game could start to randomly reset those values. If so, edit those values in \system\DefUser.ini too. QUOTE ENDS also make it read-only please. I love the game. Its nearly as good as MOH Allied Assault and better than COD 1 in my own opinion.
The game just runs badly. I hope the PC game is much better. I'll do a comparison between the versions. I am very currious how much is just lowered textures because the PS2 game is very dull and hard. Best example is a mortar on the other side of a field that cant be spotted. The game in general seems to be more like a "decide whenn to stash your squad before they die". The first game seems much better but firstly I need to play both.
I am rage quitting through the PS2 version. Every own shot lags the game. Tanks destroy the FPS even more - only German tank in one mission so far. The PS2 game is utterly bad. The lower FPS in MoH Frontline is even better. I really prefer the first game but I only played it on PC so far so that I will do a propper comparison after I have played both games :)
I really liked the mod until I found out that the Intro isnt a place in the main game. It got added. Spoilers are also in the intro if I am not wrong (I have forgotten most of the intro so dont quote me on that, I just rebought it) and changes levels so much that I dont like it but adds a lot to the og Deus Ex. In other words -> install GMDX and dont play this because it changes everything - its like changing a painting instead of adding more - its the wrong way of changing a game and the new music is utterly worthless because it has no atmosphere compared to the original (can be turned off).
I had to buy it on a key seller shop because Steam had to remove it from the store. I got it for cheap and was happy. The STORY is one of the best I ever played but only one thing made me ragequit and its the terrible endless spawns. The game has many setpeaces where enemies spawn on comand but leaving that type of zone will push you to the limmits cause theres no time to do a pause and reload - its a run from light to light source where all ghosts (?) despawn and when leaving respawn. They push / hunt you so badly that exploration isnt going to be nice espcially circa half way through the game when everything (story) hunts him...
