Could be a great game, but it is totally wasted by its lame AI and unfriendly controls, which make you frantically click all over the screen with no visible result.
I really tried to seize the gameplay at first, but it's too much, honestly.
Anyway, Rhonanthorsaid pretty much everything below.
Reviews for "Awaken: Front Line"
Im stuck at the preloader =\

try new version :)
This game is frustrating because the soldiers will stop firing unexpectedly. They don't return to reload or anything and then they suddenly get slaughtered while you struggle to maintain control of the situation. It's very enjoyable up until the point where the soldiers become apparently stubborn and do not respond to a command or suddenly cease to shoot and protect themselves or their comrades, despite having ammo.
A lot of potential but the AI frustrates.

We will seriously remake Ai for new Awaken ! But we will do it , if this version will have a good rating
Sorry for the lack of 2 stars for such a good game,but there are a lot of things lacking...
1-Unceasing waves.
2-No melee attack for squad.It is not fun watching a member with strength 10 raped by a zombie of minimal health,just because he ran out of bullets.
3-No barricades or mines or tripbombs or whatsoever.
4-Mission.That car is so ****ing damaged this situation calls for strategic relocation.You feel more of protecting a base rather than having a recon mission.
5-Bad AI of squadmates.Namely:Uncancellable orders-Oh I Must Go To The Ammo Box And Totally Abandon My Post-There Is Someone In The Way So I Must Stand Still-Just Beacuse My Officer Told Me To Move One Square More I Should Walk Into The Loving Arms Of Zombies Rather Than Shooting My Full Ammo Shotgun.
6-Pistols are called Sidearms for a reason,Squadmates pulling out their sidearms as a last resort would enhance the game greatly.
7-Stopping the game while a squadmate is low on health is mistimed.It should be done while a squadmate has lost half of his health.In its current state it is more like:"I Hope You Didn't Get Too Attached To This Particular Member Of The Team."
Sorry for acting all positive, but this game has GREAT potential.Don't abandon it at any cost!

We wouldn't abandon it , if it will be popular. But it is very hard , if it has bad ratings ;)
Believe me , we made best Ai on current engine ;) We tried about 6 different combinations of AI and players and tester choose that . Next game ( if it will be) will have different AI options for soldiers.
it could be better like Timtheblack said but nice game
