But as several frustrated Steam users have pointed out, what’s on offer in this paid release doesn’t do much to distinguish itself from content that’s been available in the form of mods for years now.Įditor Joe is working on a full review, and he sounds as frustrated as anyone is with Cold War. There’s veterancy and experience that tracks across missions, but other than that it doesn’t appear that there’s a lot holding the single-player experience together.Īpart from all that, it is more Assault Squad 2, at the floorboards level at least. You’ll recruit units, place them into reinforcement waves, and then call them in over the course of the match. The dynamic campaign generator so far seems to just be a string of somewhat randomly-generated scenarios, nothing like a full campaign.
This is by no means an official review, but I thought it might be worth sharing some initial impressions.
