Customer Reviews

The perfect package As other reviews have mentioned, the Soviet Assault add-on adds six Soviet missions interspersed within the original World in Conflict singleplayer campaign. This particular package includes the original World in Conflict, plus the new Soviet missions. For those who missed this excellent strategy game when it was first released in 2007, this is the perfect package for you! The new missions add in new characters, cutscenes, and some very intense fights. It's great to see the Soviet side of the war fleshed out more, the campaign definitely feels much more complete now. For those who already have the original game, you can find the six new singleplayer missions from Soviet Assault separately for $14.99-$19.99. If you liked the singleplayer, these missions are even better, and in my opinion, well worth it. If you already have the original World in Conflict, and you don't care about singleplayer, Massive Entertainment released all of the multiplayer additions from Soviet Assault (two new maps, tweaks, etc) COMPLETELY FREE, all you have to do is download Patch #10. Even you enjoy strategy games, and you haven't tried World in Conflict before, now is your chance! Fast paced, intense This is not the kind of strategy game where you can sit back and plot away. You have to move quickly. I quickly learned this fact from this intense game. The graphics and story line are very good. If you liked "Red Dawn" you'll like the game. I've only played a couple of missions, but there seems to be a lot of variability to the missions. I like the use of control points. I didn't give it all 5 stars because it is so fast paced it can be frustrating to manage your units, your fire support, your resupply options all while trying to hold one point that is being attacked while trying to take another. Pretty, but strategy it is not. I recently purchased a new
computer, and after seeing some trailers and noticing that this was only
$20 I decided to throw it in my Amazon cart. I was anxiously awaiting
this game, but when I received it I must admit I was a bit disappointed.

Graphics
and audio in this game are, quite frankly, awesome. Units are modeled
in extreme detail and the environment is amazing. Cutscenes are done
excellently and the story-line is actually believable. I've also heard
of CTDs and other performance issues, but for me it has run smooth as
butter.

Gameplay, on the other hand, is completely not what I had
anticipated. Whereas I expected a Close Combat style game, I got a
Command & Conquer. They call it a Real-Time Strategy, but there is
no strategy involved in this game. It's basically throwing your units
into combat as fast as you can replace them and ordering air and
artillery strikes and...well, that's it.

It's fun for a little while, but any serious war-gamer will be bored after an hour or two.
