Commandos Strike Force Demo

[RainOfTerror]

Eidos has released a demo for Pyro Studios' FPS Commandos Strike Force, allowing you to try out 2 missions from the full game.

Commandos Strike Force takes you right into the heart of the action from a first person perspective. Take control of the three members of the 'Strike Force' unit, each with their own play style. However, it is up to you how you execute plans of attack by combining the Commandos' unique skills.You can grab the Commandos Strike Force demo (http://www.worthplaying.com/article.php?sid=32022) (640mb) over at WorthPlaying.

I hope to god this is good, I'm a massive Commandos fan, and thus far it looks like a very faithful to commandos. I really don't want to be dissapointed.

[Suicidal ShiZuru]

Hmm looks interesting. Snagged it off Fileplanet at over 1MB/s.

Not looking good for WorthDownloading...anyone got a torrent?

edit: nvm, getting near 200kb/s from Happy Puppy.

The demo is a bit weak, fairly short too (10-15 min max).

Why did they lock it at 800*600 resolution, sheesh.

Xaerin, the Euro mirror seem to have an issue, took it off-line until its resolved.

You can change the res in the config directory of the game. I also thought it was too short but gave me the feeling that it will be a good game in the full version, with more objectives, and bigger levels.

How did they make Commandos so BAD?

What were they thinking when they decided to turn one of the best PC game franchises into a yet another WW2-themed first-person shooter?

1 and 2 were great, 3 pretty much sucked imho, they changed too much.

This is another one of those series where you wish they had just kept churning out expansion modules instead of trying to redesign the game every release. (x-com is another one that fits this mold, imho).

What were they thinking when they decided to turn one of the most insanely, frustratingly difficult PC game franchises into yet another WW2-themed first-person shooter?

Fixed!

My guess would be involving more than the five people who managed to get through the games without cheats or killing themselves.

Edit: That demo wasn't bad at all. A lot more fun than Hidden and Dangerous, but not overly arcade-like. The first mission was incredibly easy, but the spy mission was obviously a tutorial. So, it's impossible to guage how difficult the game will actually be.

As a WW2 fps, I think it's pretty good. It was very smooth and I liked the fact that you really don't have to shoot gazillion bullets into an enemy before he dies. Also, if there is more depth to the missions as in you can complete them in multiple ways, we could have ourselves a pretty good tactical FPS in our hands. The jury is still out though, until the final game comes out.

I didn't realise they had COMPLETELY removed the gameplay...

I love how people still judge a game that isn't even out yet by a demo containing tutorial missions.

Stupidity at its finest.

I only played the demo of the third installment which turned me off big-time -- 3D is always a good idea -- but #2 is among my all-time favorite PC-games.

The resolution can be changed, in the eidos directory, config folder, edit the .cfg to 1024 x 768 or whatever you want.

Yeah, gee, poor stupid us judging a game by a piece of software DESIGNED to show us what the game is like. Fuck, that's tragic. :rolleyes:

Let's judge the difficulty/playability of a game's tough missions -- that we haven't played -- on the basis of a demo containing tutorial missions.

"THIS GAME SUCKS BECAUSE THE TUTORIAL MISSION WAS EASY!"

Fucking retarded.

We're not bitching because the game was easy, you dumbfuck. We're bitching because it wasn't FUN. My AI teammates in the game stood still and got shot in the face, which is NOT FUN. The way they dealt with stealth gameplay is overly simplistic and NOT FUN. If that first mission was a tutorial, it did a horrible fucking job of telling me how to play, which is again NOT FUN. Any way you slice it, they released a demo that made a shitty impression, and will not get my fucking money.

You're being a judgmental ass about people not liking a demo which A - didn't do anything exciting gameplay-wise, and B - demonstrated flaws no-one should tolerate. Why the fuck should I give it or you the time of day?
