Reviews for "Stick Squad"

can you PLEASE remove the scope sway?

It's quite good, though it has a few glaring problems. The first problem is that the voice acting is... Not great. If I had to guess by your accents, I would say that you guys are Scandinavian. I'm sure that those are great American impressions by Scandinavian standards, but they don't sound like native speakers to me. Perfectly intelligible, just jarring. The voice acting has its own issue, too: The pauses between speech is way too long. Sometimes the delay is comical as characters shout in surprise after taking a 10 second pause. The delay just makes every scene seem very slow and it definitely kills the jokes. Another problem, the second-most glaring, is that the "headshot" indicator will very frequently block your view and make it impossible to aim. It should appear on the side, not directly over your crosshair. The third-most glaring problem is in the text: The translation is off in some places. One mission description tells you to "kill all the menace", for example. The fourth problem is that the shop isn't balanced. Certain purchases are pointless, such as the desert eagle. You only use a pistol maybe twice in the game, so the $20,000 you spend is more or less wasted. The fifth problem is that some of the features don't work. Although, as I type this, they are mysteriously working perfectly. When I first went to try the survival mission using the pistol, the game locked up. My view was stuck in the center of the screen, there was this rapid clicking noise, an enemy could be seen gyrating in the bottom of the screen, and there was inexplicably a target on the screen (even though there shouldn't have been targets in that game mode). That happened to me multiple times. Now, for some reason, it's fine. On a side note, the last mission is a bit confusing. You're told to shoot a man in the leg, but once you do he'll just run off to the side as if he weren't hurt. He then crouches there, gun in hand, for the rest of the mission. Apparently that counts as incapacitation, but I would have preferred it if he at least dropped his gun. I swear he shot at me when I wasn't looking. Maybe I just did it wrong.
Other than that, the game is pretty great. The animation is utterly fantastic and the environments are beautiful. The music is underwhelming and generic but it grows on you. I really liked upgrading the rifles, and I wish there would be cosmetic changes as well. Tactical Assassin did that almost perfectly, though it has its own problems. I really really liked calibrating the gun. That was a great touch. I wouldn't object to that being a constant mechanic, if the game's pace would slow down to accommodate it.

Haha,this game is funny as shit.

this is awsome the history , the playing , and the animation , ALSO had a option of spañish idiom :O , este juego es genial , la historia , la jugabilidad , y la animacion , incluso lo tienen en español , HERMOSO

Would've been better if the sniper was LAYING ON THE GROUND so the scope wont be so goddamn wobbly. Horrible. Good game though.
