Commandos Review. - Major Tom - 03-24-2013

This was taken off of Hackforums. This is my thread.

Ok this is my review about all the commando games that i have lol well i have them all... Well first off i love the games from Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines right too Commandos Strike Force ^.^ I love the challenge that you need brains too complete the missions, Meaning just don't go in there blasting because the enemy will fuck you up big time...
And this is a little TUT too xD

The characters have there own skills and weapons too master =3

Duke: Sniper - Your Commandos Sniper. He can kill people a fair distance away (great against other snipers)

Fins: Diver - Uses a throwing knife too kill enemy's and uses the diving equipment to stay underwater for ages and ages, He also uses a harpoon gun and uses a grappling hook too climb high walls.

Frenchy: Spy - Great person if you wanna get behind enemy lines. He can dress up in enemy uniform and use a hypodermic needle too kill your foes but bewared if a officer spots you. you will be unmasked

Butcher: Green Beret (what ever you call em) Big bloke that can use a knife too melee enemy and can use a decoy too distract enemy's, can jump down from great heights and climb poles and power lines too avoid detection from the enemy's

Lupin: Thief - This lil guy can sneak around pick pocketing solders with out them noticing them and he can climb through windows and pick locks this guy is the fastest and the smallest of the Commandos

Inferno: Sapper - In charge of explosives, Can throw grenades, plant explosives and mines and uses a metal detector too find minds. Good against group of enemy's... and he can set up traps.

Lips: Seductress - Acts like a slut to distract enemy solders acting pretty xD and uses sniper and dresses up in uniform, She can hit the enemy's with bottles and knock them out.

Tread: Driver - Can drive vehicles, use smoke bombs, gas and Molotov cocktails and can set up traps like trip wire and bear trap and also dig holes for the enemy's to fall in.

Now for my Review for EACH Game.

Commandos: Behind Enemy Lines:
Now this is the first Commandos game out and yes i did enjoy playing it but beware it is VERY hard if you set the alarm off you MUST think of something VERY fast if not and bout 50 solders are running at you.. well sorry your seriously fucked... any hoo this game has 18 brain melting missions that you need too complete lol ranging in Europe too Africa but it is a good game but it is annoying at times when your sneaking around then then a alarm gets sounded... the graphics are cool in the game lol i love the way that they run xD lol

Commandos: Beyond The Call Of Duty:
The Expansion of the first one and like the first one it is VERY hard indeed but there's is only 8 missions which make you rip off your dick and throw it in the water...

Commandos 2: Men Of Courage:
This is my fave game of all time based on war movies for Eg. The Bridge Of the river kwi (which is a movie) and Castle Coldditz (Another movie) the game has 20 missions including the bonus missions which you need too find the bonus books too unlock the missions... it sets the difficultly too Easy, Hard And Very Hard.

Easy:
is for the noobs out there who are not used too these things but then again its like Hard =/ i took me time too finnish it coz the levels are hard too pass... you can heal your team mates when they are dead and when you heal yourself it gives you full health.

Hard:
Nearly Impossible and you cant revive your commandos and the heath heal is reduced by half and you shoot slower than the enemy's and the enemy's have more range than easy...

Very Hard:
Just like impossible... Your health is 3/4 reduced and you shoot much more slower and you cant revive your commandos no matter what =/

You can drive almost any vehicle that you find (watch out the enemy can shoot you while you in a vehicle (expect tank) you need your drive too do so and you need your sapper too shoot (if your in a tank)

There is your 2 types of enemy's in this game there is your usual
Germans:
German (Nazi's) in most WWII games they get pretty popular xD they use snipers, machine guns, Rifles and pistols they tend too have patrols that consist of machine gunners or riflemen and are VERY annoying if you get caught but

you will find them In missions:
Training Mission 1 & 2
Night Of The Wolves (you sneak around at night at a sub base)
Das Boot: Silent Killers (same mission but in the day time)
White Death: (A Snow level that your sub gets blown by death charges and becomes stuck in the ice...
Saving Private Smith: (pretty much like the movie Saving Private Ryan)
Castle Colditz: (A long level that you need too clear out a castle full of Nazis and save prisoners)
And Is Paris burning (just like Hitlers words when he herd that the allies have taken over Paris)
and on most of the bonus missions.

And the Japanese: They tend too use rifles, snipers and pistols... They are dangerous in patrols though so look out for them they are on:
Target Burma (Some where in Thailand where you need too kill a leader and escape with a monk lol)
Bridge Of The River Kwi (pretty much like the movie)
Guns Of Salvo Island (you need to rescue the allied pilot and destroy the guns in the caves lol)
And Giant In Harpong (meet you fellow comrades and blow up the fuel tanks and infiltrate the aircraft carrier...

Commandos 3 Destination Berlin:
This was a little bit of a let down coz i had just fewer enemys in it and your always against a timer and it is easy too past and the controls are too hard too handle but all out it was still a good game too play though... Missions ranging from Russia, Normandy and Central Europe... The game was still hard too past but i found it easier than the last one and there is a fewer missions. =/

Commandos Strike Force: This was a first person shooter and yeah i did enjoy it but it just lacked with so many things like the enemys and the Commando's and there skills but still is a good game too play =3

Commandos 2 Destination Paris: (MOD) nooww this is just like Commandos 2... Same missions BUUUUTT it is VERY VERY VERY Hard i cannot and i repeat I CANNOT complete Training mission 2 it is sooo hard DO NOT TRY UNLESS YOU PLAYED THE ORIGINAL... They made this too challenge the pros lol if you think commando's 2 was hard??? MATTEE just play this and yeah you will find out the meaning of hard
