Sudden Strike 4

The game is good,, and i like it because it reminds me a lot of "AFRICA KORPS" vs "DESERT RATS", and the "D-Day" games, but on "STEROIDS", with better aesthetics, gameplay and everything else, from the "Monte Cristo" publisher, but "COULD THE DEVS FURTHER INCREASE THE ZOOM IN AND OUT? SPECIALLY THE ZOOM IN," "A LOT", I'm saying this because it does make the game experience "WAY LOT BETTER", better aesthetics, easier management, specially when handling with "INFANTRY", when you're playing a campaign on single player for example. if the devs fix this very, very, very "SIMPLE", easy to fix issue. Then i'll give a thumbs up that it really deserves.

Arrow keys move the camera. This is the opposite side of the keyboard from all the other keybinds. There is no alternative control scheme with WSAD camera movement. Too annoying to try and rebind everything. I don't care if some RTS from the 90s used arrow keys. It's stupid. A game released in 2017 should not have such an outdated and moronic control scheme. the game also does not recognize the number buttons. So you cannot just rebind the WSAD keys to 1234 which is what I would normally do in these kinds of games. This is a travesty. I wonder if this was meant to be played on the Switch or something. It's such bad game design when we can't rebind keys. The game does have a tutorial but if you've ever played any kind of RTS game, just skip it. The tutorial gives you an instruction but makes you sit there doing nothing for 10-20 seconds before you can carry the instruction out. Such bad tutorial design. Positives: Slow paced FPS so you do not need good micro. There is also a tactical pause if you really need to stop and issue orders mid combat. The game does run in the background (can be toggled on/off) and there is an option to play sound in background on/off, so you can freely multitask with this game. Despite the annoyances, I would ultimately recommend this to people that want a realistic RTS experience without the micro of most RTS games. The game has no grand strategy layer or supply lines to worry about and all content is mission based, so it can get pretty boring pretty quickly if you want something with a bit more depth. You don't even get to call in your own units afaik so you use what the game gives you. It's purely about positioning your units correctly and using their abilities correctly. Furthermore, the game has a lot of content locked behind DLC which is annoying but you get 3 campaigns by default with 7 missions in each plus 3 bonus missions that are unrelated to the campaigns. It's a fair amount of content considering you can get the game on sale for a few dollars or less.
