Re: FSW Impressions...
Ok, I've had the game for 4 hours and all I have to say is.....AAWWWWWWWWEEEEEEESSSSSSSSOOOOOOMMMMEEEEE!!!
FIrstly I want to note that I am playing on the harder difficulty level, I believe it's 'Master Seargent'. IMO this is a MUST.
In 4 hours I have completed the training missions and am STILL in the first 'real' mission. If I had to summarize so far I would say that this is the closest thing to living 'Blackhawk Down' that I have ever done.
The characters and voice acting are supurb. After awhile you get to know the guys and feel like you know 'em. What's great is how they make all these smart [censored] remarks and stuff when they're fighting one guy and kicking his [censored]. HOWEVER, I had Alpha team pinned next to a car and taking HEAVY fire from RPG and HMG and the team leader was screaming like a madman at his team under all the chaos. You could FEEL it!
You must be VERY careful as you can lose your guys quickly. You really need to use cover, flanking, and your MIND to be successful. THere have been so many cool moments so far that I don't know where to start. In fact I wanna go back and play now!
All I can say at this point. If you're really into military realism, tactics, depth (even the music puts you in the mood) then check this out at least rent. And if you do, play it on the harder level. It's not impossible or anything, but you can't save as often and if you make a dumb [censored] move, you will PAY.
So after four hours I LOVE it. I only hope this takes some ttime to finish. THe one promising thing I saw is that is had XBL 'downloadable content'. Hmmmmm? Perhaps future downloadable missions?
OK, back to the freakin warzone! Hoooah!
