characters can act, they usually at least stay in the action and try to kill bad guys. Since I don't have the patience to play on higher difficulties, I honestly didn't use them much-as stupidly as the A.I. A standard checkpoint system would have been far preferable.Īfter the first mission, you're given a quick tutorial on the commands you can give your fellow soldiers. Constantly respawning makes sense in deathmatch, where the point is to kill the enemy more often than he kills you it doesn't work in a single-player mode, where the point is just to make it to the end of the level. It's clear that the developers started with a multiplayer experience, and then tweaked it to make a campaign, rather than building a campaign from the ground up. Factor in the steady stream of reinforcements to replace dead comrades, and death is practically consequence-free, at least until you try higher difficulties and can actually run out of teammates before reinforcements arrive. Whenever you die, you don't go back to a checkpoint instead, you're reincarnated as someone else on your squad. The team-based nature of the missions is also a problem, especially considering that co-op functionality hasn't been added yet and the A.I. In RO2, on massive maps, you're given a series of objectives to complete, which usually amount to "clear this building, and then that building, and then that other building." The best bet is usually to just follow your teammates, but before you learn the maps, it's easy to end up in the wrong area, with no enemies to shoot while the rest of your team handles the objectives. Even fully open-world games make sure that missions unfold along a path that makes sense.
The campaign takes place on the very same maps as the multiplayer, which doesn't really work-in a shooter game, multiplayer maps should be like a playground, whereas single-player maps should offer a somewhat guided experience. (Like most other games that allow you to play as a WWII-era German, RO2 is devoid of explicit Nazi references.) All in all, it feels like playing a multiplayer game with bots. It's divided into two parts, a German campaign followed by a Russian one. The single-player campaign, meanwhile, is quite frankly a mess. Blood and Gore, Strong Language, Violence
