But what Ubisoft wanted to achieve with this "work", do not open up to me. Why did you Call of Juarez ship in modern times? The description says: "The game is still at any time a Western!". No, dear people of Ubi, that it is not - it has become not even a mediocre shooter, it's just very bad.
Time a number of points to the game itself:
- Graphics: unbelievable. This should be a match for the current generation of consoles ?? It looks partially like this, as if you have already begonnn programming on the PS2. In addition, absolutely low vision, annoying bloom effect and cruel textures. The whole area is really free of any kind of atmosphere - clinically dead.
- Sound: OK, here is actually Western, namely Western music. Can you listen to, is ok. Syncronisation: au weiah. Strongly reminiscent Good times, bad times. Completely emotionless gesabbelt, totally annoying, also the sayings are repeated constantly and also ensure that a game really does not want a piece like.
- Control / Gameplay: Heaven help! Driving is a disaster. Not only beastly boring, even the steering is, it is totally unacceptable. In addition, you have while driving a very poor visibility. The cover system consists of, wait for it, duck! Sorry but that's the last time. A current shooter game where the player has no way a reasonable coverage? The use of weapons is also crap, too imprecise and confusing. The possibility also here to use two guns at the same time the story is fast because it just is not fun. Also annoying: you get hit, the screen will flash red colored completely exaggerated.
- Story: NA. A Mexican drug cartel makes bad things, and then the three great police report so be pöhse, including of course a Nchfahre the McCalls. Related to the previous games of Call of Juarez? Gibts not.
One can also meet side quests that you have been getting for mission start. A change? Absolutely not. In addition to tasks simply means that one in which in itself is quite tiny area where the mission takes place, just something thoroughly ransacked the corners around here sometimes to find a cell phone, because sometimes some money or nen half-eaten kebab .....
My personal conclusion: THE disappointment of 2011. I would never have imagined that one can mess up a game so so as it happened here with The Cartel. Why it was thought at Ubi, thus making the series a favor, I can not understand. And sure it has played no responsible, because then you would schenll noticed that it is on the verge of throwing a real lousy piece of software on the market, which may damage the good reputation of Call of Juarez.
One can only strongly advise against it, to buy this game. I sincerely hope that you rausbringt the next part again as a true Western, otherwise I would recommend going einzustampfen the series - for that here has nothing to do with game ball.
