Red Tears: Angola

Barebones Far Cry style game set in an under represented part of history, interested to see how it'll turn out.

Very cool premise for an early access game. I played the demo and it's a fun game set during the Angolan civil war. The road map has multiple factions planned with currently just UNITA playable. Surprised at how many mechanics are in the game already such as healing, stealth, some crafting (silencers, bandages, repairs), a capture point system, as well as a POW system. When you die there's a chance you can get captured by the enemy faction and you start tied up around some enemies. You can escape and sneak or fight your way out. You can also just wake up in a friendly post with a message of being rescued. The way healing works is essentially how it worked in Far Cry 2, you pull shrapnel out of you and then bandage up. The ai needs a little work, preferring they don't face rush you and try to suppress you more would feel better. Other than that I look forward to what's added as development comes along. Especially once Cuba is added and I can play Mr. Worldwide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBXEFzIutWo

way too rough of a state to be early access in my opinion this as alpha at best good ideas but def wait for more progress

As of first day of early access game is in very rough state, but it have a good potential. Animations are good, shooting feels pretty good, but little challenging, sound could be better, but ok. AI is not good, they can see and shoot you from too far, while I struggle to spot them even with directional detection indicator. Physics a little bit janky, few bugs here and there, as expected. Despite that I think game is priced right and as FC2 fan I'd say yes.

红泪-安哥拉：无剧情的丐版孤岛惊魂2 个人给予这部作品 5.0/10 分，属于“中规中矩”的范畴 +良好的枪械手感 +细致的枪械操作动作 -过少且重复的游玩内容 -过少的枪械种类 这是一部致敬《孤岛惊魂2》的单机FPS作品，不过游戏没有剧情，玩家的目标就是在开放地图中占领所有地方据点。虽然操作感觉和《孤岛惊魂2》类似，但可玩内容非常有限，我完成一次游戏耗时4小时左右。 本作的枪械手感不错，枪械的后坐力恰到好处，远距离子弹散布效果也令人满意。玩家操作枪械的动画很精致，无论是上弹还是中轴重锁等瞄准动作都非常到位。游戏中玩家可以和同势力的士兵一起进攻，也可以独自摸黑清理敌方营地，受伤时候的包扎、清理卡壳枪械等动作和《孤岛惊魂2》几乎完全一致。 不过本作的可玩内容很少，只包括了《孤岛惊魂2》的清理据点内容，没有主线剧情，这样玩起来重复度很高。此外，本作的可用枪械少于10把，在FPS里算比较少的。总体来说，如果能接受本作粗糙的画风，游戏荒中的FPS爱好者试试也无妨。

The Good Brutal Realism: Pays heavy homage to Far Cry 2. You physically dig shrapnel out of your arms to heal, craft makeshift weapon silencers, and maintain degrading gear. Brilliant POW System: If you run out of health, there is a chance you get captured instead of getting a "Game Over." You wake up stripped of your gear and tied up in an enemy camp, forcing a tense, tactical jailbreak. Immersive Atmosphere: For a project built by one person over two years, the animations are remarkably fluid, the gunplay feels heavy, and the 1970s Bush War setting is incredibly distinct. The Bad Broken AI: The enemy logic is deeply flawed. At long range, they have "terminator vision," effortlessly spotting and lasering you through dense, opaque foliage. In close quarters, they break down entirely, mindlessly face-rushing your position in straight lines. Alpha Jank: It is barebones. Only the UNITA faction is currently playable, the sandbox is thin, and you will encounter typical alpha bugs like physics clipping and occasional performance crashes. The foundation is highly promising

It's way too early rn but it has a lot of potential. Very excited to see where it will be going since my favorite Farcry alway has been the second one.

ts so good i can't stop myself, it's all over the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ walls!

Finished the map now, and I gotta say, the vibe is peak. The horror of loud, intense gunfights with bad visibility has forced me to adapt in ways I remember doing in Far Cry 2. It is still in a buggy state, laggy aswell. But the core of Far Cry 2's Heart of Darkness is here, you will sneak, plan and brutally kill or be killed. Escaping enemy capture was also insanely fun, the knife kills are brutal. love the game

Generally speaking, this is already a very solid and enjoyable game, despite it being very barebones and in early access. The game is clearly primarily inspired by Far Cry 2 but also adds some mechanics that you'd expect to see in a newer Far Cry or a similar game, flashing out what is already an enjoyable experience. The weapon animations and gunplay in general are very satisfying, and the game is remarkably stable. Right now the only thing the game needs is more content to flesh out the sandbox further. I've already finished the first region 3 times at the time of writing (once without firearms), so any new content would very much be welcome.
