"Difficult, and with room for improvement."

date: January 2, 2007

I stopped playing after the first few stages. I have many requests in terms of improving gameplay. The idea was fine, classic bird's eye shooter. Not exactly sure about story/plot, but the idea and genre of the game was a good choice. Here's, well, a potential list of improvements.

-Make weapon switching faster so you don't have to wait a few seconds in the middle of combat.
-Bullet time was a good idea, but I think it should go up after killing an enemy or finding a bed to rest it or something. If it recharges over time, it's too easy to just stop playing for a little while until the bar is full.
-Don't start the game with every type of weapon unlocked, with ready to use ammunition. Make the players earn the upgrades.
-Make upgrades for speed so you can move faster.
-Don't give the bullets such a wide scope of damage. I was being shot at, and the bullets were hitting the wall behind me about a foot away, but it still counted as being hit.
-Few lag issues, particularly when you get shot and the blood effects kick in. After that you can't shoot back because your computer slows down too much.
-Have upgrades in stage. Like I said, perhaps a speed upgrade, or first aid kit, or kevlar vest. That would be good.
-Have snipers and things- military tactics.
-Give the protagonist a story. Not just a "soldier" who's killing a whole heap of other soldiers. Where's the patriotism in that? =p
-Perhaps a cone of vision, ie line of sight, would have also been a good upgrade, so you can stay hidden from enemies and try and sneak past them.

I also noticed that once you initiated bullet time, and then took it off, the bullets traveled at bullet-time speed. The bullet time itself was a great idea though! Great idea! You just need to work on how it's used a little more.

Well, that's all I have to say. Characters were a little slow and all, but I think this game could really go somewhere if you considered some of the points I mentioned. Fair game though, 7/10.

"Is it just me..."

date: January 2, 2007

...or are there glitches in the action script? It doesn't always fire when I press the lmb... and it doesn't switch weapons every time I press Q or E.
Other than that.. it's an ok game. Weapons seem to be a little dull.. I mean, why have so many pistols and smg's? Where are the rifles? Grenades? Flamethower? (fine it's not a special ops weapon..) And a laser sighted weapon would be neat. Also, make it possible to sneak up on an enemy if he's facing the other way. Knife would become handy..
Keep up the good work.

"Good Job, But so much for very hard mode..."

date: January 2, 2007

I've found that in very hard mode you have no crosshair, but, your only flaw was making sure that they couldnt use any sort of crosshair. What i found was by pressing the right mouse button you can have the mouse icon appear infront of the game and use it as a crosshair. What i would improve on if i were you is permenently remove that from happening, then very hard mode will be very hard. Otherwise your sound was excellent, graphics were good for what the game was but the style i felt was underdone. I really felt that you could have done better. Don't take this too hard either, i can't even attempt to do what you do. I'm really comparing your game to the great games i've played on this site before. Overall you deserve a nine and a five. =)

"good but..."

by: eric55
date: January 2, 2007

the game was the same than the first black.
the doors were a good idea, if u ave a good timing white them u can pass some level without get hit.
the bullets that the bad guys shootcan hit u even if they dont tuch you.
and u could ave make some goal like those 1 whitout killing the gard.
and put more strategie than onli go to the right place to shoot (in 3 level)

so if u do a black 3 mack it a bit differant anduse the sugestions above.

srr for wrong spelling cause im french. VIVE LE QUEBEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEC

"nice game...keep it up"

date: January 2, 2007

thats a nice game... one problem for me though is that i have a french keyboard, so the A is in the Q's place, the W is in the Z place ....so its kinda hard to play
if u keep doing great games like this (perhaps cs or a melee game), u might wanna use both arrow keys and w,a,s,d to move
oh, and great game, keep it up
