Being categorised as a strategy game yet it offers nothing of it.
This game fails on all fronts except maybe graphics. I'll just list the main points as I do not think giving this trash any attention is worth it.
- The game holds your hand every step of the way in every campaign and mission. What I mean is exactly that. Every objective has to be done in a specific way and they are: go to a point, clear enemies, repair or escort something and defend waves. And this goes on and on.
- Pathfinding is awful and units tend to get stuck a lot.
- RNG in penetration and accuracy.
- Game used to crash often at first until I reinstaled it months later.
- Prestige is a solid system but useless since unit composition is the same and, as stated, there is no strategy involved here. And the repetitive nature of the missions is insulting. You complete the 3 stars and have no idea how fast they fill up to 3 (you just have to kill everything - which means going out of your way to clear maps around the objectives because missions cut short if you don't).
- Enemy units have greater vision for some reason and ALWAYS shoot you from the Fog of War, no matter if you have points into certain prestige perks and open hatches on tanks to extend range. Their positions are always given up by them shouting for some reason.
- Voice acting is done by the same few people when it comes to commanders and narrators. Yet the units have localised dialogue, though only a handful of voice lines that repeat nonstop after every single action. Why is every commander voiced by some guy from Texas LMAO.
- Wonky physics and ragdolls. Soldiers always have a silhouette of them T-posing when ordering them to move.

This game fails on all fronts. It is repetitive, boring and doesn't require cognitive process more than the level of a zombie. The presentation is weak and uninspired. It feels and plays like a cashgrab. Made by people who have never played an RTS game and just wanted to get quick cash on a famous franchise that they bought the rights to. It is insulting. Copy paste missions and endless braindead "action". Dont bother

Great atmosphere and, as always, a simple story. This one was too short for a standard Emika game. In just under an hour you can complete it unlike the rest of his games that take about double that (not counting the christmass game. That one has the average playtime in the description and still felt better than this one). Overall this is the weakest of Emikas games and it shows. The story, at least the background story, is good and disturbing but the game isn't that memorable or as interesting as some of the previous installments.

I was surprised how short this one was and yet it had quite a few great jumpscares

Played this on the Xbox One and that version is superior to this one. The controls with vehicles are bad and unless you are playing with a controller this will prove to be annoying at times. Missions and everything is alright and enjoyable for what it is. A short side story that has simple gameplay. The only huge issue I have is the grind for Assault Ops. You have 3 challanges for each mission and they range from being done in one mission to replaying and grinding the hell out of the same mission over and over again.

The Xbox One verision has COOP and missions vs The Flood in those, which sadly this game doesn't offer for some reason.

At the height of the C&C era we had this and Kane's Wrath. It feels as a natural evolution of C&C Generals just with all the live Action Cutscenes you'd expect from a mainline C&C game.

This time you have one campaign. The story is your standard crazy Sci-Fi we love from the insanity that is the C&C universe. A solid number of missions here and good actors with varying performances.

The soundtrack is, as always, a banger and the units voice lines are just as insane or even better than they were before.

The gameplay is fast and hectic. It somehow feels even faster than any C&C game to date for me. A lot of stuff is happening and you have a lot of both micro and macro to manage here. Armies are built fast and destroyed even faster. Quite a staple in the RTS genre.

My only downside is that it is difficult to locate units at times depending on the buildings surrounding them. And you would like to undo the patch that the game has integrated due to balancing multiplayer. Why? Because it made the campaign a lot harder to manage. The bonus here is that each faction has subfactions, kind of like in C&C Generals: Zero Hour with the general system. But here it is a lot more utilized - a lot more new units and some factions have completely different playstyles.

So i do recommend this game as any other RTS fan would.

This game is such a mixed bag I don't know hot to explain it but it seems that the developers and publishers decided to put "everything in the kitchen sink" and hope for the best.

The games story is its highlight but characters are kind of flat (Kidman is flat in every sense ayy) and the worst part is the dialogue between the characters. A lot of the mistery is not conveyed between the characters in order for the plot to progress forward without needing to tackle important issues.

The performanse this game is abysmal. If you use anything but 100% scale on your monitor the game will have awful resolution. Framerate can be fixed a bit but the black bars in the game make it feel like you are in a prolonged cutscene. I get that it is supposed to feel claustrophobic but this is just too much. The headbobing wasn't that much of an issue for me but it sure is annoying for a lot of people.

When it comes to gameplay this game messed up bad. Regardless of upgrades sprint is extremely short, my grandpa can run further and hot have to break to take his pump out as much as our protagonist. Ammo is scarse but the game forces you into wave defenses and action sequences like it is a Resident Evil game, yet the resources, health and damage doesn't work well in such scenarios. The later you are in the game, the more action there is.

The best part of the game is its intro and the most annoying part is most of everything else, especially the end part where you are literally playing an action game in a survival horror game....

The DLC is the greatest example of what this game should have been more like. When you play as Kim in the DLC you get to see her side of the story. I consider it much more interesting than the base game and the atmosphere is as thick as it can get (especially in Darkness mode). What makes it even better is that the DLC has no weapons and upgrades. So it is a lot more focused and I believe this is something the base game should have been more like.

I give it a positive mostly because the story and atmosphere is good, but when it comes to the gameplay the DLC is more like a stealth game while the base game is an awful hybrid of survival horror and action. Still it can be enjoyable, but not on higher difficulties.

Meh, this plays like a demo for a mobile game

A game that went so far into satire it became a meme of itself. Unlike the previous RA games this one is even less serious storywise. But quite a few famous actors are cast here and you just know they were having fun when they saw the script. And funny enough the thing that is the rarest nowadays is hot women being cast the part. It may seem weird today but back in the day it wasn't that really out of place. You have 3 Campaigns in this insane future and you can play them in any order you choose.
The gameplay is fun and the graphics are colorful and the particle effects look great (especially explosions) even by todays standards. The only downside is that, like most games of this era, this one has a COOP focus during each mission. So you will have a companion AI that can be swapped for a player if you have someone to play with. Otherwise you are stuck with a simple AI.
The soundtrack fits with the previous RA and CnC games style. The best and main adition is the Soviet March even though it makes no sense in Russian. This song alone became a cult hit and is used in many online videos and compilations of military hardware and parades.

Overall a relic of the past. Where games were made to be fun just as for the people involved in making them as it was for the players playing them.
