Reviews for Echoes: Act 1

Frustrating

Know how much it sucks to be sitting there watching your army get wiped out by a mortar shooting enemy on a hill that you can't reach because your own troops shoot mortars that don't go far enough to reach that blast you back. I actually got stuck in a never ending blast recoil loop from this, being tossed back and forth like a volleyball.

The game has promise. But as it is, the campaign is very short, and the ally AI needs work, and it would probably be good to turn off friendly fire. Those tank things are way too strong too. Or the aerial support needs a buff.

eh...

its fun at first. but then it just goes downhill...getting freakin tired of being blown up and flying in the air every 5 seconds.

Great Concept.

I would give another 5 stars if the controls were complete. The use of ordering your units around was made perfect with easy control the only thing I hate is switching between your weapons. Switching between your weapons makes your who web page move, maybe it's just me but this was my experience and this is my review.

shame

i really wanted to like this game nice graphics and its rare to find a game with good voice acting but the scenes went on forever and the game play was just walking forward slowly shooting it was so dull

Frustrating!

The story is ok
The plot is stupid
Voice acting is ok
Script is not, too much dragging, not much of importance.
Controls are awkward
-sprinting is slow
- jumping forward can be triggered without tabbing the button twice.
-Sometimes, Dem runs the wrong way (not likely to be a lag)
-After being knock back (fighting with Diabolus) the weapon changed
-Controlling your soldiers should've been easier (hotkeys perhaps?)
Gun is so extremely useless (knife is more powerful & I beat the game with it)
Can't zoom out in combat mode
Diabolus is sometimes invincible
Your friends can't die, but you can. So I never feel anything for them. Hell, I let them do all the work.
A pause button, or a time stop during strategy mode for an easier management
When Dem is dead, stop pulling the camera back to him in strategic mode, it's already frustrating enough when you can't give any commands in strategy mode but moving.
Command options in strategy mode

These things better be fixed in Echoes 2
