Brigador: Up-Armored Edition

Love at third sight

When the game was released I bought it because of the good reviews here and on Steam. When I started to play this game the first time I coudn't find the point why so many people like this game. I started to play the campaign, which starts slowly by introducing the differnt vehicles. It was very slow-moving, so I got bored quickly and quit to play the game at some point. A half year later I made a second try. But I came to the same conclusion. One week ago I started to play the game the third time, but this time I kept playing through the introduction. Then I played the Freelance Mode. There I realized that the Freelance Mode is the real heart of the game. While in the Campaign you can only choose between some vehicles with a pretermined loadout, in the Freelance Mode you can buy new vehicles and weapons and combine them as you like. Later on, when you've unlocked some more vehicles and weapons, the game gets better and better. Meanwhile I'm really addicted to the game. I keep playing to unlock more and more vehicles and weapons only to see what they are able to do. I also realized that this game is not the ordenary bullet hell shooter. Later on, when the difficulty rises, you really have to think about tactics and how you can fulfill your goals. Sometime you also have to do some stealth and you have to plan what buildings to destroy first. One example: If you destroy the radio towers, the enemy scout units can't set off the alarm and call other enemy units for support. The goals are mostly the same, like destroying specific buildings or enemy units and then flee through the exit, but this isn't necessary a bad thing. The game is more about the challange, how to achieve that. In the campaign mode has some kind of story, but this story isn't really worth mentioning and is told in some text windows. So for me this was really love at third sight. I can really recommend this game.
