good but some of the dialogue sounds weird to native english speaker
I like the way it looks and plays. It kept me hooked for a long time -I even played at night, right up until dawn.
Very fun game with fun management mechanics. I love the sense of progression you get as you grow your cartel, and I love the interactions between your Capo and their lieutenants. The game is very atmospheric with beautiful map design, some sick art, great audio, and many interesting storylines. It can be a little challenging at times but once you get used to the struggle, it can feel great to overcome the obstacles holding back your narco empire. My only wish would be to have more maps to play!
Gostei bastante do jogo, mas levei um bom tempo até realmente entender todas as mecânicas. Minha dica é: faça apenas o Tutorial e, no máximo, o desafio intermediário. Depois, parte direto para o jogo livre, onde você escolhe seus próprios objetivos, porque as outras campanhas acabam sendo frustrantes, você já começa com propriedades e tenentes que não escolheu, e a única saída é destruir tudo para ter algum controle, o que tira totalmente a liberdade. O end game também é bem cansativo: o jogo trava, acontece tanta coisa ao mesmo tempo que você perde o controle do cartel, mas ao mesmo tempo os lucros continuam altos e não faz mais sentido expandir. O mapa é gigante, mas a maioria dos pontos de venda são inúteis no fim, só usei mesmo o Porto do Rio e a Pista de Pouso. Outro ponto que poderia ser melhor explorado é o combate: seu poder de fogo fica restrito aos tenentes, enquanto as armas em si quase não fazem diferença. Recomendo mais o WeedCraft inc. (kkkkkkkk)
Cartel Tycoon — игра, которая превратила меня из законопослушного гражданина в криминального гения (виртуально, конечно). Сначала играл на пиратке — ну а кто не пробовал? Но игра так затянула, что я честно купил лицензию: совесть проснулась, да и поддержать разработчиков захотелось. Что тут делать: строить фермы (не для картошки, а для другого урожая); нанимать «сотрудников» с сомнительной репутацией; выстраивать логистику так, чтобы всё прибывало вовремя (и не попадалось полиции); отбиваться от конкурентов и властей — без этого никуда. Оценка: 10 из 10 — даже жена перестала спрашивать, когда я закончу «в эту ферму играть»
Pensé que iba a ser un juego más entretenido pero es aburrido, es aburrido porque no explican bien para que sirve cada cosa y luego tienes que estar adivinando, pero ya luego le entiendes pero no del todo. EL modo historia está muy facil en comparacion del supervivencia. Es decir empiezas con las plantaciones luego tienes que poner un almacen y para venderlo tienes que tener una compañia de transporte y ahí eliges a donde venderla que sería el aerodronomo, pero lo que no entendí era mover el dinero sucio de los puntos de ventas a las residencias y de ahi a que se lave el dinero a la ciudad. Y lo que más me hizo enojar es que no explican bien y por ende no entendí como defenserse o atacar ya que tengo que mandar a todos mis integrantes a un lugar ya por si solos son poco eficientes para la guerra.
it is very fun sometimes a bit annoying but all around a great game would recommend
Super Addicting game The downside is there's only roughly 25 hours of gameplay from beginning to conquering the map from other cartels, which you must do because they attack you endlessly. If the AI wasn't so aggressive and there were an easier way to build up relations with other cartels it'd be funner and more chill, however as it stands you build defend and attack. Its ok and I enjoy it, but there comes a point when all you're doing is defending your lands from other cartel attacks and police raids while cash stacks up, then you coordinate an attack with your lieutenants to get rid of a cartel. My first real playthrough I just ended up attacking and getting rid of the cartels without actually fulfilling the missions to take over the city because the other cartels were annoying. Once all the cartels are gone and all the cities are neutral except 2 or 3 you completed in this time, the game just gets stale. I don't know how to get rid of that staleness besides completely reworking the way cartel relationships work because at the moment the current system just feels completely useless.
Bueno
La verdad me esperaba algo más... El sistema de "comercio" es lo más enrevesado que he visto desde hace tiempo.. Viniendo de juegos como faraón, caesar o incluso los "annos" este no merece mucho la pena..
