Default Can we help Clod? Yes!

Hey guys

Anyone care to review the game to give it more stars? It is not getting reviews from the player base that matters. Only those ***** ***** **ats we deal with every-day.

Honestly, I don't think that CloD in its current state actually deserves more then 2-3 stars. Especially if you're more interested in offline gameplay. I initially gave it 3 stars when it was released, and that was a rather benign decision based on hope and trust in the developer.

The 5-star "reviews" IMO are just as daft as the 1-star ones.

Hopefully BlaxkSix creates a real good scripted campaign for BoM. Like Desastersoft did for CloD.

I think you mean 'twats' btw

And atm means 'at the moment'

Worth waiting for fixes like working COOP, write new reviews and organise a campaign for voting them useful then here.

Giving it 3 stars in it's current state if generous. Giving it 2 stars in the state it was released in would be way too generous. This is not what one would call a finished game, in any sense of the word "finished" as it is lacking in every single aspect without exception.

Numerous Bugs
Performance Issues
Gameplay Options
Hardware Support
Documentation. . .

The list could go on, but that's not really helping anyone. The devs know what needs to be done (at least I hope they do) and it's in their hands, if they want to give us the game we asked for (in a completed state) or just do a shoddy patch-job and move on to another 1/2 finished project (BOM).

I don't think people will re-review the game and I also don't think it's necessary or helpful.

The release was... not so great. But generally the content it offers for beginners / newcomers is close to zero and the content it offered for veterans was close to zero as well. It was an update in terms of graphics, physics etc. but it also lacked what the real strength's of the series were.

So all in all they need the bad reviews to get working and fix the parts that are broken. Most enthusiasts bought the game anyways and the newcomers just plagued the stores that sold it to them for refunds, I'm sure.




I'd say let's save the re-reviewing for the next sequel / add-on thingy.

If the game becomes worthy of a good rating, I'll happily give it a good rating.

But the unfortunate truth is that right now, the game is awful and definitely not deserving of more stars. Heaping praise on a product that's mediocre at best is dishonest. It's the way the world works: Maddox Games released a shoddy product and they're learning what happens when companies release shoddy products.
