The game is at the moment barely playable. It jerky extremely and even first game magazines have a buy warning given out. (See Gamestar)
Very funny also that the game here on the one hand 5 Star gets from many buyers and the rest only 1-2 stars. If one then looks at times what the 5-star reviews have otherwise been rated so, you quickly realize that 90% of people have only rated this game here and elsewhere never another product on Amazon. If there is not something was hurried along? The fact is that game or the game engine jerky extremely soagr on high-end computers. How to get 5 star the game when I can hardly play it? But read the warning buying yourself on gamestar.de
Technically jerky extremely on my high end PC. The minimum requirements are surpassed by me to the 5-fold, yet I constantly stuttering. Earlier in the endless mode even so bad that 30 seconds nothing went and no more mouse movement was possible.
The pathfinding of vehicles is unfortunately even after more than 10 years, is still a Katatrophe. Funny how a simple pathfinding in Emergency to date is not possible. In other games, it works but also.
The missions, as far as I've been playing, what I think is a little disappointed because the whole major disasters unfortunately no longer take place as in the old parts on separate cards, but it all happens in the same city. The disasters are unfortunately only somewhat more elaborate endless orders. Previously, still incensed great. The ICE misfortune of Tracktorunfall etc. of the first parts. Now is burning here and there a house, then a cathedral, then a construction site.
These normal nerve inserts between missions something so that the game will only unnecessarily protracted. I want, for example, do not always make a forced break after a large-scale operation, and then only once for 45 minutes remove trash fires in the city.
As Cologne I was happy on the Cologne map. But unfortunately, the Map has except with the cathedral has nothing to do with Cologne, Okay there is a river. But everything else does not fit. The Cologne main station does not even remotely similar. The cathedral is too far away from the Rhine. The cathedral is completely free and totally performs a Haupverkehrstrasse. Vorm Domeingang borders a main road? Since when is that? What happened with the dome. The train station next to the cathedral is also not there. On the opposite side of the Rhine from the Duomo is suddenly a major container port. At least the central points have yet to be properly positioned at least briefly with a look at Google Maps. But that's just a made-up town in a cathedral is, and then you simply call it Cologne. Even to speak almost an impertinence of a Cologne Map and offer specially in the Deluxe version. If you already advertises with the city of Cologne and is then also presented as a great Deluxe features, then it should have a minimum level of quality.
The game got off me only 2 stars, but because I think it's pretty disappointing, but it's still not a bad game. However, I have now corrected the rating on a star, because the game is 10 minutes after preparation of this vote again crashed 2 times and unplayable jerky. In addition, here a lot of reviews of other buyers on behalf of Publishers appear to have been created so. Anders hardly explains well that so many 5 star give while professional game tester and hundreds of other customers all speak in forums of the same problems. It just does not serve up some predecessors, has hardly evolved. I do not know where all the development is? The mechanics, the pathfinding, 95% of vehicles. That's all the old. Only the graphics are better and fast times made a few new maps. The cutscenes are extremely poorly animated and look like 12 years ago. In strategy games, I'm not a fan of 3D world. A very good, crisp and detailed isometric view me a thousand times rather than a freely rotatable 3D world with thousands Blinckeffekten, soft focus, etc.
Amazingly well as here the deluxe version with a few "bought" rating is much better off than the download version. Namely, there have been about 10 people given only one star and only one person has to give 5 stars and because of the beautiful game world.
I hoped for more
