Command & Control 3

**BUYER BEWARE** No updates since June 7, 2021... Save your money, it's dead.\ [UPDATE 1/24/2022]: Still no updates/patching ect, game is deader than a door nail.

PROS: + nice concept + easy to learn, hard to master + units + offmap support + team change during the game, so you can react quickly + sounds + fair price CONS: - infantry squads die too fast - pathfinding for vehicles - tragedy, they are turning 100x during a few seconds - unbalanced, for example cruiser missile have not enough dmg and big reload time - undestructable buldings - only a few units - only 2 factions - both factions have same units Should be developed: * PvE * PvP * some units should have map limit, on some maps its only tanks spam * workshop CONCLUSION: 8/10 - simple RTS with good skirmish for fair price.

So I wanted a game that could scratch that "command & conquer" itch but offered something different from the Command & Conquer Setting. I came across this game and figured i'd give it a try. Here's what i have to say about it: 1.What is this game? this game is NOT your normal RTS where you micro manage your units and give them specific orders and maneuvers to navigate and dominate the battlefield. instead this game is much more simplified, simply give your units a "goal" order and they will carry it out to the best of their abilities. So instead of being a "Commander" you're more of a "General" sending his troops out and moving them around the battlefield to adapt to the tide of battle. 2.What's the Goal? The game is split between 2 game modes; Assault and Conquest. There are 2 factions; Nato and Opfor (i forget their actual name so i'm just going to call them Opfor for now.) There's a campaign mode where you play through various scenaries but ultimately it boils down to taking and holding objectives until the other side runs out of reinforcements. 3.What's the gameplay like? unlike most RTS games out there this isn't a "Base Building" game. Oddly enough it's not like others where you have to "Pre-deploy" units on the field and work only with what you have. The best way i can describe it is, the game gives you "cards" which act as your squads. Each card holds 80 points. Each unit costs points and you and put units in your cards to make a squad. You can put as many units as you want so long as you don't exceed 80 points. The units you have available are infantrymen of varying variety and cost (Assault Troopers, Machine Gunners, Snipers, and Grenadiers) and Ground vehicles (at the moment they only have Bradley IFVs and M1A1 Abrams Tanks for NATO and BMPs and T-72s for Opfor). you also have off map support that you can call in (Mortar strikes, Howitzer strikes, MLRS strikes, Attach Helicopters, Anti-tank Air Strikes and Cruise Missiles.) You can have up to a maximum of 8 infantrymen per card, and 1 vehicle or off map fire support per card and a maximum of 7 cards. to create a squad simply click on an empty card, select your units and hit "apply" and they will deploy on the field shortly afterwards waiting for orders. From here it's standard RTS controls; select units with the left mouse button, move them around with the right click button. At any time you can recall the unit or squad and change the contents of the card and redeploy your new set up on the field. Earlier i said that you don't micromanage your units, more so give them "goals". that's pretty much what you're doing when right clicking to move them, you're giving them a "Move and defend" order in one click. unlike most RTS games out there you can't directly click on an enemy unit to attack, instead you have to literally trust in your units to handle the threat their way, the best they can. When giving them a "Goal" to move to you can hold the right mouse button and drag the cursor to create a "zone" for their goal. This is great when selecting multiple units and giving them a zone instead of a pinpoint location so that they can spread out and not bundle up together and get taken out by an air strike or something. Like in most RTS games infantry are very squishy where as armored vehicles are the backbone of your frontline. Thankfully giving infantry a move order on a building will move the infantrymen into said building so that they have a slight defensive bonus against other infantry. You also might want to experiment with different infantry types as having a variety of infantry in a squad may seem like a great idea, making them more versatile on the field, keep in mind that most infantry like Machine Gunners will move slower than other infantry in your squad and will be left behind by Assault Troopers. And while Tanks have Anti-infantry Capabilities to defend themselves, IFVs are more more up to the task of taking out enemy infantry. As you capture and hold objective points you'll begin to establish what look like "Reinforcement Routes" where each point is linked by a line on your minimap. this is to show where troops can be "redeployed" when squads get too wounded or suffer from too many KIAs. at any point you can "redeploy" a wounded or dwindling squad. this will remove them from play for a short period of time to replenish their health or loses before deploying them back to the front line, rather than let them die completely and have them deploy all the way back to your deployment zone. keep in mind that this cannot be spammed if you've been overrun by enemies as your redeployed squad might end up spawning back in on the frontline only to have a firing squad waiting for them. In these instances i'm reminded of the saying "sometimes you gotta know when to hold em, and when to fold em." -Final thoughts Overall, not a bad game. I like the atmosphere, i like the gameplay, the sound design is quite impressive and the the game does a great job maintaining a strategic play style while also simplifying it so that others can get the hang of it. and while i'm not big on PVP i would be lying is i said i wasn't curious to see how this game would hold up in a multiplayer environment. It could actually give most RTS games a run for their money. I would definitely recommend this game to RTS fans looking for a comfortable change of pace.

The game simplifies the traditional RTS genre into troop and fire support (ability) deployments. There's no need for base deployment, resource gathering, research, anything like that. You just have the ability to call in fire support and to bring in units. It isn't very micro intensive, especially since units aren't very responsive and will get bogged down in fights even if you do want them to disengage. You gradually unlock more unit and firesupport types as you play the campaign, and the map area gets bigger with more points to capture and ground to cover. The map expansion doesn't do much for the game play other than to turn it into a slog, unfortunately. For your units, you have either infantry or armored vehicles to choose from. The vehicles are the fastest, with no speed difference between a tank, IFV, or humvee. Infantry are a little bit more complex, with mild variations in speed. Unfortunately, since everything is so far away and since there's a 30 second cooldown once your units are destroyed or need to be reinforced, games can take up to 30-50 minutes depending on skill level. There's just nothing to do when your troops are moving to a point or are on cooldown, which makes the majority of the later campaign levels boring. TLDR: Once novelty wears off, game becomes a chore and a bore to play.

Oyun iyi ama eksiklikleri var. İki modu bulunuyor: İkiye ayrılan Nato veya Csto kuvvetleri olarak oynadığınız iki ayrı hikaye kısmı ve İstediğiniz gibi kurabileceğiniz genel bir çatışma modu mevcut. Oyun tamamen Amerikancı terminolojiyle orta doğu, bize göre yakın doğu coğrafyasında geçiyor. Büyük haritasında belirli kontrol bölgelerini hakimiyetiniz altına alma mücadelesi olarak geçen oyun, ünite sahaya sürme temelli kurgulanmış. Yüksek uçan bir drondan izler gibi tasarlanmış kuş bakışı kamerasıyla üstten görünümlü yapıya sahip. Ünite tasarımları kötü değil ancak çeşitliliğini az. Sahada birkaç seviye ünite yükseltmesini yapabiliyor ve öldüklerinde yeniden aynı birimi silmediğiniz taktirde sahaya sürebiliyorsunuz. Ünitelerin yanında bir de özel güçler olarak tanımlayabileceğimiz oyuna dışarıdan müdahale etmemizi sağlayabileceğimiz özel destek birimleri var. Bunlar: top atışı, helikopter saldırısı, f-22 nokta operasyonu, kamikaze dron, kruz füzesi, dron ile alan gösterme ve savaş sisi kaldırma vb. işlemler için kullanılabilen özellikler. Oyunda zaman hızlandırma sistemi var ama iyi uyarlanmamış. Senkronize değil. Ya çok çok hızlanıyor ya da ağır oluyor. Sesleri, gürültüleri güzel. Birim konuşmaları güzel. Görselleri kötü değil. Klasik bu tarz oyunlarda olan müzikleri idare eder. Menü seçenekleri çok kötü. Destek birimlerin savaşa dahil olması biraz anlamsız uyarlanmış. Örneğin f22 ile tank gibi zırhlı araçlara tek atabiliyorsunuz ama aynı roketi piyadelere atınca neredeyse hasar vermiyor. Helikopter piyadelere bolca toplu hasar veriyor ama zıhlı birimlere (roket kullanmasına rağmen) hasar veremiyor. Koskoca füze atıyorsunuz sadece piyadelere hasar verebiliyor. Ayrıca bu dış kuvvetlerin kullanımı o kadar hızlı ayarlanmış ki bastığınız anda iki saniyede olup bitiveriyor. Kullandığınızı bile neredeyse anlamayacağınız şekilde düzgün dengelenmemiş. Haritaların neredeyse her yeri şehir ve binalarla dolu ancak birimleriniz doğru düzgün bir çatışmaya giremiyorlar ve belirlediğiniz binaya gitmeleri çok uzun sürüyor. Oyun içinde çıkarabildiğiniz üniteye göre çok fazla kontrol noktası var. Ayrıca az önce bahsettiğim gibi üniteler yavaş hareket ediyor. Araca bindirebiliyorsunuz ancak araç için ayrı bir slot harcamanız gerekiyor. Dolayısıyla yine bir dengesizliğe yol açıyor. Sonuç olarak oynanabilir ancak önerilebilir bir oyun değil. Geliştirilmesi gerekiyor.

This top down counterterror game is a fun one. Definitely more of a beer and pretzels strategy game, easy to learn and hard to master. You choose between either NATO forces or Russian Forces and attempt to combat an insurgency in a fictional land. Can see the tower defense background as well, worth the price and here's hoping mod tools can be added eventually. Also to those saying "The dev doesnt update anything" Multiplayer and new Campaign content have just been added. Light strategy gaming fun. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3FNfzaNR_c

Save the money and do not buy this mobile phone game.

The game concept is really cool, even with a simplistic look, the sound design is engaging, the slowness of the units and the progress is pretty boring, the fact that you point to locations and you can't have a precise idea of ​​positioning like in company-style games of heroes leaves a little to be desired, the units also don't have bonuses for the type of physical training, I believe that only for the type that it is ie if it's just a grenadier or if this or that... the concept of as if it were a general commander it was really cool...so far I missed aircraft like the black hawk doing circular flights protecting areas with the machine gun...the buildings don't have physics and also don't give the immersion of soldiers ambushing or taking cover efficiently. It's a visually simplistic game, but conceptually promising, the value asked by the producer is almost a buy order that we can maybe produce more cool stuff, so buy to support future ideas and more cool stuff to come! Until then the strategy itself is very simplistic and becomes a game to pass the time and not to devote itself in large learning curves like CIVILIZATION or even games like RUSE, STEEL DIVISION or even MEN OF WAR. A good game, but nothing too extraordinary, but with promising future possibilities, I hope the developer invests in good updates! ================= O conceito do jogo é bem bacana, mesmo com um visual simplista a sonoplastia é envolvente, a lentidão das unidades e do progresso é bem chato, o fato de você apontar para locais e não poder ter uma idéia precisa de posicionamento como em jogos estilo company of heroes deixa um pouco a desejar, as unidades também não tem bonus por tipo de formação física, acredito que somente pelo tipo que é ou seja se é só granadeiro ou se isso ou aquilo...o conceito de como se fosse um comandante geral ficou muito legal...até o momento senti falta de aeronaves como o black hawk fazendo voos circulares protegendo áreas com a metralhadora...os prédios não tem física e também não dão a imersão de soldados emboscando ou pegando cobertura de forma eficiente. É um jogo visualmente simplista, mas conceitualmente promissor, o valor pedido pela produtora é quase um pedido compre que podemos quem sabe produzir mais coisas legais, então compro para apoiar idéias futuras e que venham mais coisas legais! Até então a estratégia em si é bem simplista e passa a ser um jogo para passar a hora e não para dedicar-se em grandes curvas de aprendizado como CIVILIZATION ou mesmo jogos como o RUSE, STEEL DIVISION ou mesmo MEN OF WAR. Um bom game, mas nada muito extraódinário, mas com possibilidades futuras promissoras, espero que a produtora invista em bons updates!
