Don't support Eagle Dynamics until they announce the future of RAZBAM modules. They are currently selling at full price modules which are buggy due to a dispute with the 3rd party developer. It is in fact a legal scam.

So I decided to try and, my god this game is bad.
The interface is more convoluted than a 1970s telephone exchange.
The units move randomly, tanks turn around themselves when given a command towards the direction they are already facing.
The tutorial is a mess, and cannot be completed with the instructions provided.

Then while playing the recon tutorial, a Marder got hit, guy jumped off it while the machine was perfectly fine and kept fighting. No way to get him back on, and on top of that he now has the tank icon on him while the actual SPG doesn't. Great.

And then the pathfinding, my god the pathfinding.

I'm not complaining the game is complex, the problem is that it is unnecessarily complicated. A simple action such as move forward, with maneuvering disabled and no AI man. control, should just lead to a unit moving forward. Instead they keep stopping, turning around invisible obstacles, waiting for something instead of shooting on the target they have in front of them. Plus there is little to no guidance on screen to understand what is going on or why certain things went a certain way.

Probabily there are ways to live with that. But going trought the tutorial of any game should be fun and a breeze. Definitely not what I see here.

I went for a refund.

The overall game experience is very positive. I need to state though that some parts felt a bit of a drag, possibly due to Hardcore difficulty. If you don't enjoy hordes of enemies flocking towards you keep it on a Normal setting.
Some boss fights weren't great either (Shrimp and Pavel come to mind), but the overall atmosphere and representation of the Metro situation is quite good. Keep in mind that this game is also a product of the passion and the dedication of a tiny Ukrainian studio that worked in unthinkable conditions to put that product on the shelves, so this must be appreciated aswell. :)

I have to admit: my first review was very negative.
But I was playing the game like I was playing SD44. The sheer size of the battles requires you to give up some fine control over your units.
There is just too much going on, so focusing on precise unit placement is just unberable. Tanks, leaders, planes, is what you should be focusing on managing correctly, infantry just requires a broad placement, with occasional fine tuning.
Testing Army General, and loving it!
