играть неприятно эта гнида просто лагает
优化不是很好 游戏内可以说和模拟器实机一模一样的卡顿 没有做任何调整就移植过来 最影响体验的应该是主界面操作除日语外会有或多或少问题 ui卡顿这里解决办法就是改成日语版 至少能够正常流畅运行 然后这部游戏是我的童年 而且整体设计质量在我心中完全不输合金弹头235 尤其人设和每个人不同的玩法这块始终吸引我 最后一大关EDM现在时不时也会翻出来听听 冲着游戏本身我是极力推荐的
Jogavel no Linux na configuração padrão do Proton
Everything that's great about the first game is missing here, only few playable characters, no gore which by the way is the reason the first one is great. I'm not even a fan of the controls, but at least it was still fun to play, just overshadowed by its predecessor.
Una secuela esencialmente ajena (No me gustó, pero tampoco es todo terrible, lo aclaro para quienes no se den la molestia de leer la reseña completa): He aquí la saga Shock Troopers regresando con una continuación directa, pero con otros personajes y trama. - Lo bueno: Al igual que en el primer juego, los personajes jugables tienen mucho contraste entre sí, no es lo mismo usar a un personaje que a otro. Incluso tienen más contraste aquí, pese a que son 4 personajes y no 8. No solo las bombas, pues poseen distinto tipo de disparo y hasta ahora, tienen estadísticas, además de tener voces y frases propias como los personajes el primero. Aquí los enemigos, también sueltan items cuando los matas con melé o combate cercano, y aquí sí que hay que atreverse mucho, muchos puntos, salud, bombas, y hasta mejoras para el arma principal, con un máximo de 3 niveles (considerando que aquí la acción es mucho más frenética que en el anterior, sería imperativo melear siempre que se pueda. Tenemos lo de alternar niveles, aunque solo desde la segunda a la tercera misión, pero la opción está. Y la música también me parece destacable, incluso me gustó más que la del primero, o por lo menos, la música de la primera misión, la del primer jefe y la de la cuarta misión. Ahora se pueden montar vehículos, como en Metal Slug. - Lo malo: Empezando por, probablemente, el cambio más polémico: los diseños. Personalmente, me agradaron y no me parecen malos, pero sí que pareciera otro juego y no como el primer Shock Troopers, pese a que mantienen parte de las bases en el gameplay. Estos diseños podrían funcionar en otro contexto o saga, de verdad se extraña la estética realista y semi-caricaturesca (En las expresiones faciales y corporales). Como dije, la acción es mucho más frenética, pero a expensas de, a mi parecer, el mayor defecto de este juego: ¡SU DIFICULTAD EXAGERADÍSIMA, INCLUSO EN LA MÁS FÁCIL!. En serio, en el primer juego, la dificultad estaba más balanceada, en comparación, pero aquí se pasaron y ya se requeriría muchísimo entrenamiento para terminar el juego sin morir ni una vez, incluso más que el Metal Slug 2/X y 3 combinados. Pareciera que lo establecieron así para que los jugadores de máquinas de arcade les inviertan más créditos para seguir jugando. Me recordó al juego de arcade de Jurassic Park del 94. Sé que esto no es molesto por jugar en dispositivo más moderno en lugar de arcade, por la opción de poder usar CONTINUE cuanto quieras, pero eso no quita que el juego peca de ser injusto en este aspecto. Pero igualmente, le perdonaría todos estos reparos.... ¡SI TAN SOLO NO SE REINICIARA EL PUNTAJE LUEGO DE USAR CONTINUE!, con eso, el juego ya me perdió. y supongo que existirán otros juegos de arcade que hacen esto mismo, pero si la dificultad es muy Tryhard, no hay excusa. - EN RESUMEN: un juego en el que me veo con sentimientos encontrados. Si bien podemos rescatar la variedad, el frenesí, el desafío y la música, los defectos que considero graves, me hacen preferir el primer juego. Por mi parte, a gusto jugando el primero, pero en todo caso, no soy nadie para obligar a que no jueguen este (Decisión de cada uno). Igual lo pueden disfrutar por el desafío y haciendo mucho puntaje, pero asegúrense de no usar CONTINUE. PD: Leon me recuerda, entre a Gordon Freeman y al Vardoc1 XD
The original game is fun. It has a lot of character. Shock Troopers 2 is from a time where Japanese games featured gratuitous Engrish. It was charming and added to the enjoyment. But this.... Terrible port. Its 'look how they massacred my boy' bad. Not worth the $1.20 I paid for it! Two main issues: - The default resolution is completely borked and won't fit your screen. Taking the game out of windowless doesn't fix it and it won't let you resize the window. You have to go into the options and lower the resolution. Even better: the option you need to select for the changes to take effect is off screen until you successfully change the resolution. - Crippling slow down. This game has quite a few copers claiming, 'DUHHHH, ACHTUALLY, THE ORIGINAL HAD SLOWDOWN TOO" attempting to make people believe it was just as bad. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥! Yeah, this game had slowdown and flickering on the original hardware, but it wasn't nearly as bad as this port! The slowdown in this version is Metal Slug 2 bad - which if you're familiar, is really ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ bad. You'd be better off grabbing this game off a ROM site and playing it on a NEO GEO emulator since your choices are give at most $8 to people who obviously didn't give a ♥♥♥♥ about the game or nothing to enthusiasts who are trying to preserve the arcade experience. Will I get into trouble for saying this? Maybe. The people who expelled this out of their colon deserve nothing this port is so criminally bad. This game is legitimately a banger. I'd describe it as Ikari Warriors' retarded kid brother. Simpler and less serious. Not afraid to embarrass itself. Lacking features it was seemingly designed around like a rotary stick. You wouldn't know it playing the Steam version though. If you NEED to buy this game, buy the Hamster port on any video game console. They usually (not always) give a damn.
o jogo e legal mas o grafico infelizmente e muito antigo, infelizmente aqui na minha tela ficou bem ruim a imagem, podiam polir o jogo e fazer uma versao em HD ja estaria otimo.
Ugh Ugh Ugh! OW oW oW! PAWAA UP! Ugh ugh guh, PAWAA UP! OW OW oW! The game is fun for the most part, with frantic energy and solid action. However, it ran in slow motion 50% of the time, and it crashed entirely during the final boss fight (the large nuke/missile room). Recommended, but only on sale, and with knowledge that it might crash to desktop.
jogo e legal mais nao tem salve nao pode escolher as missoes nem depois que zera e tb e menos de uma hora e meia pra zerar
Overall, this is fine. However, it's like the developers took the near perfection that was the first game and said, "Now let's make it annoying chaos while stripping away its unique features!" That's pretty much it. That being said, it's still more good than bad. But with the options and pure fun that come with the original, just play that one again and take different routes and explore more characters.
