First Fight Review
Posted: 2007-03-14 03:14:54
I've played most all of Snake's OFP missions/campaigns and I must say, AA First Fight is a really good campaign.
I guess I got the most recent version because it was virtually 99% free of bugs. The only real bug I noticed was in the 2nd or 3rd mission where I am checking out the air base. I put the squad on "don't fire" but at just the wrong time, 2 of the team members opened fire. I ordered them to again "hold fire", but it didn't work. After moving on from that mission, it seemed to work fine at all other times. I don't know if that's a problem with AA or the campaign.
I really liked the campaign. It was a true infantry group of missions. There was a lot of walking involved, but overall it played out very nicely. I'm hoping there will be more missions or other campaigns.
To be honest, I played through the AA campaign first and after finishing the First Fight Campaign, I would have to say that First Fight was the better of the two, overall.
One other thing. This was probably the most difficult campaign that Snake's ever done... (at least out of the ones I've played.) The AI didn't just roll over and play dead. They were damned agressive and crack shots. Each mission was a fight to the very end.
Nice job Snake, looking forward to more.
