Enemy AI is shocking, they use maybe four tactics to. Problem is, this is much simpler technically and worse in pretty much every aspect. I don't mind streamlining features and simplifying combat for the sake of more fluid and faster paced action, i very much like UFO: Enemy Within. It does the job and adds to the atmosphere. Somewhat redeeming here is the music, which in some places is really nice, even if it isn't the kind you'd listen to outside of the game. That being said some are truly horrific, for example 'Spirit' - she sounds like a broken cyborg from an old movie. Gunshots are most likely chosen from some cheap sounds library off the internet, character voices are mostly okay, especially the ones with accents. Sound is there, that's about the only positive thing about it. The menus and ui look bland, font is poorly chosen, game view doesn't cut away walls, trees or any other obstacles so you constantly rotate the camera to see anything, which more often that not barely helps. Add to that unreasonable system requirements and choppy framerate even at high end computers. Problem is this game looks truly bad, think Silent Storm (which is over 10 years old, remember!) but not as pretty or as detailed. I know in a tactical game it doesn't matter all that much especially for fans of the genre. The game is truly bad, and this is coming from someone who doesn't mind playing bugged or not-so-pretty games as long as they have something going for them.
Thing is, they missed the mark by as much as you can possibly miss it. Flashback - made by people who claim they loved the originals and were so disappointed that no company made a proper sequel they decided to do it themselves. This is a game that made me create an account here, simply because i was baffled about its high user score and lack of warning for potential This is a game that made me create an account here, simply because i was baffled about its high user score and lack of warning for potential buyers.
