I cant believe this is for sale. This is likely the worst game ive ever played. I can draw better looking weapons then half of whats in this game, the RPK literally made me laugh when i seen it. Theres a weapon that looks like a LAW rocket launcher called flamethrower. There is a russian APC (Looks like a 60s-70s model) with a mounted ppsh 14 WW2 smg on top? It has the mk19 which was most deffinetly not even a prototype in vietnam much less used in action. Literally no one in multiplayer, which i assumed was the case. I was looking for single player anyways. That sucked. Theres like 10-15 arcade stye missions that are just borring. The AI shoot you through walls or dont shoot you at all. Apparently you can reload every weapon in the world in .5 seconds by just putting your hand where the magazine should be. I can make better sound effects for the weapons with my mouth. Better off turning off all the sound and doing sound effects myself...PEW PEW. Shots fall short of where your iron sight is sighted at like 20 meters. Oh for the sights on american weapons they just kinda took a unity asset for a modern day ACOG and just flopped it on top of the weapons, it is literally inside of the carrying handle of the m16. This is a sh***y Playstation 1 game released in 2016 for 20 bucks. Its a joke and a rip off. This shouldnt even be early access much less full release. What ever you do, dont give this the time of day or the money in your pocket. Even though im getting a refund, i still feel like ive lost here some how. Also i understand this was made by a single guy, making games isnt easy. But thats no excuse for this. This guy had to know what kind of garbage he was releasing into the world and did it for a few bucks. He deserves a ticket for littering.
I love supporting indie devs that try to make ambitious games but sorry to say this game is just really bad and not worth 20 dollars
I was not expecting something like this to be this astonishingly bad. £15.99 is a rip off for this sort of game. Eve of Destruction is basically a poor man's Call of Duty and make it have the quality of the latest Infinite Warfare trailer. Eve of Destruction - REDUX (and no, I don't udnerstand the REDUX part, I can't find any existing "Eve of Destruction") is basically a single/multiplayer FPS. It is divided into different game modes, with a primary focus on the Combat game mode. Now, I will start off by saying when the game first started, I was semi impressed. I saw the amount of maps that the game had and it had a good 30 "different" maps. I'm using different in quotations for reasons I'll explain later. The first mode I tried out was the only tutorial mission which was helicopter training. I jump in and realise that graphics are awful, Call of Duty on PS1 graphics I'm talking about, and I'm talking about the game on max settings. The helicopter training is also unbeatable as the helicopter controls are terrible. I don't usually expect helicopter controls in games to be great but I expect that I can at least control the altitude of the thing. In Eve of Destruction, you can barely do anything as nearly all movement of the helicopter is depending on the mouse and not only that, the W key is used for moving forward and gaining altitude and the S key is used to descend and move backwards, imagine how hard it is to reach an objective using that sort of process. Anyway, enough about the tutorial, what's the rest of the game like? Well, the rest of the game is just starting to get bad. Nearly all of the game modes have a form of unplayability factor to them or just shear boredom that you cna't really press forwards to continue playing it. One issue that the game also has is that you can't apply a differetn game mode to a different map, each map has a designated game mode/s to them (when I say s, I mean that there are about 5 of them that have 2 game modes to them) the maps that do have more than 1 game mode to it use that other game mode as jsut a tacky add on that doesn't even seem fitting with the map. I'll talk about a few of the game modes that are worth talking about as these are the main stand points of the game. Combat is probably the primary game mode the game pushes out and it's also the most generic. It's basically Capture the Flag + bad AI teammates. You can choose from 2 teams and you need to have your team conquer all the flags on the map. The primary problem that it has is that each team have designated flags assigned to them. You don't start off with an equal amount of flags (or at least not always) and you're never told before you've actually chosen your team what the amount of starting flags are. The 2nd issue is that the AI of the teammates is some of the worst I've ever seen. Your teammates just run around in circles and don't really help you out much. The enemy AI on the other hand seem to vary from being bad like your teammates and being unfair. For starters, the AI seem to be able to shoot through the walls whereas you can't so that's already unfair. But then sometimes the enemy AI just sometimes decide to not shoot at you. I can't figure out why they aren't shooting at me sometimes and other times they don't. There's a game mode where you fire missiles down on planes/helicopters that don't even attack you which is also really boring when the thing actually functions correctly. The racing in the game also has some unplayability. If your car flips, there is no way to actually get the thing back up so that means game over and with the bizarre AI attached to it, you'll get flipped over a lot. There is also other forms of warfare, there's air warfare where (if you payed attention to the tutorial I played) you can sort of expect having warfare with jets and helicopters will go. There's boat warfare and the enemy AI is worse on that as they'll just keep crashing their boats into everything and pose as little to no threat to you. Now, let me talk about the maps. Even though (like I said) I was impressed with the amount of maps that were created at the start, once I actually played them, most of them felt tacky, cheap and unfinished. Items, houses everything is recycled wherever possible and most of the maps feel like I'm playing in the same empty environment. Also, there's a map in the game and according to the map, there was emant to be other buildings implemented because they're on the map, but not actually PHYSICALLY there. The multiplayer isn't that good as there's barely anyone playing and is primarily occupied by bots (and you know what they're like) Your weapons also decide to freak out from time to time. The ironsights on your guns sometimes works, sometimes don't and soemtimes decide to put the ironsights in the middle of the gun so you can't see what you're doing. Even if you can look past all of the flaws I've listed out, the game is still a generic and boring multiplayer FPS that is DEFINATELY overpriced. Personally, this is one of the worst experiences I've ever had. Pros Cons - Bad graphics - Bad vehicle controls - Recycled maps - Missing locations - Bad AI - Some game modes are unplayable Final verdict: 1/10 My Steam Cuarator group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/MellowReviews
As a massive fan of the mods on BF2 and BF1942 I was slightly disapointed when I DL this, That being said, the game is still in developpement and the guy that develops it ( I once chatted with him via mail ) is alone with his son to do the developping if I remenber right, The mod has been on since 2002 and they worked on the concept ever since. I got hope they will make the Weapons skins/ flight control better soon enough tho I do reccommend this game though as I am aware of their works and know their capable of doing a lot more as they did in the past
Needs work but other than that, it's pretty good and has a lot of content for a game developed by one person.
My thoughts 1.Whilest there are hardly any players on ,its somewhat entertaining and with a very good arsenal of guns and Tanks and pretty good environments and did I mention a couple puns . 2.The AI is not so much dumb per se (at least it can coordinate a raid) but does peculiar stuff Run around like there in a Darude video and play go karts with tanks. 3.The graphics Resemble Battlefield 1942 but that doesn't bother me because I like retro games anyway.
As a player of the modification, i can say: This has much potential, but it have a lot of work left. I will keep an eye on it and hope the development wont stop. What it needs is polish. Contentwise there is enough. When it feels like the old mod i will come back fore sure. I really hope the development wont stop, because its a Battlefield Vietnam :D
For those of us playing Battlefield Vietnam many years ago, this game is a must! Graphics are good, gameplay is good, vehicles including helicopters, aircraft, jeeps, uboats are awseome. This game deserves a look and is a great accomplishment by the person who made it possible along with his wife and son! I give this game a 10 score!
There was a text in russian written by a Ukrainian. Error 404 - ♥♥♥♥ P.S. The best game about the Vietnamese war for me. Conclusion from five years.
PLEASE NOTE: MY RECOMMENDATION COMES WITH A HUGE ASTERISK! * This game is actually terrible! However, it's a kind of terrible that I cannot help but find hilarious, it's the kind of terrible that I cannot help but laugh my damn arse off at. The plane flying minigame alone is so damn funny, due to it's utterly broken control scheme, that it's a barrel of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ laughs. If you're looking for a serious experience, battlefield 1942 or the like, stay away from this game as it's probably one of the worst FPS games I've played. However, I have way more fun with this than I do C.O.D and in comparison to other ♥♥♥♥♥♥ FPS games, it's better than some cynical ass piece of trash like Stealth Force: The War on Terror. The game tries to have a lot of variety and you're bound to find something so inept that you'll burst out laughing at it. A complete and utter abomination... but a hilarious one at that.
