BIA: Hell's Highway

TheBrauerHour · 10-19-08, 07:39 PM

Just bought this today. I played a couple missions so far and I like the cinematic approach. I do enjoy the destructible cover. The squad leader stuff actually seems annoying to me, as I just like to go in and shoot Germans in the face. If I want to coordinate an assault and lead men in battle, I play WWIIOL.

With that said, the game seems very polished so far.

Anyone with any thoughts about this game so far?

I bought it last week and I've decided that I really enjoy this game. I actually find that the squad leader element is one of my favorite parts of the game, along with the intense gore (

). The levels that I like the least are the ones where you're put out on your own in some building with large amounts of Jerries to take care of.

The only thing that annoys me really is the somewhat rinse-and-repeat style that you use when playing through it. The ol' find 'em, fix 'em, flank 'em, and finish 'em is a fun concept until you are forced to keep doing it over and over and over again. That said, I had a blast playing through the single player portion and have been playing it consistently for the past week or so.

Got it and liked it! Play it through and play it again with the authentic difficulty, makes it even better.

Probably has a linear storyline.

WWIIOL I guess but a graphics issue prevents me from playing.

Either way, a forced linear storyline automaticly makes a game **** for me.
