The censorship makes absolutely no sense. I hope they put them back in final release. Why in the world would anyone get offended by those signs in a historical game about WW2? It's not like you're supporting the Nazis in the game, you're actually against them. This is hilarious.
Can't sell the game in Germany with swastikas, portraying Nazi symbolism is against the law. I doubt the developer has the resources to release two versions.
to many people have the tendency to be neo-Nazis and all. not to mention it is the ideological left out there trying to cover up there own pasts in anyway.
I was slighthly worried when I saw the edited (read: censored) intro, but then I got to the first actual mission (Night of the Wolves) and realized the leather-clad SS patrols had a weird eagle-like icon in place of their NSDAP armbands, while the patrol leader just wore a pure-red armband with no symbol at all (a communist, maybe?). What a joke. I'd rather brave the compatibility issues of the original version than play this castrated remaster.
@@karagumruk7330 Haven't been following up this but, honestly, from the publisher's perspective, there's really nothing to "fix". They decided to deliberately censor it from day one, and I don't believe they'll change their stance. I'm a sucker for WW2 history and I really hate these braindead stunts for the sake of politically correctness (ironically, Kalypso, the publisher, doesn't seem to mind about political correctness when they publish yet another Tropico game, a series which at its core is a cruel, but hilarious nevertheless, parody of some of Latin America's darkest, bloodiest decades), but if you don't mind about that and are ready to deal with some of the bugs they actually brought in the game, Commandos 2 is a pretty solid and fun game. I'll stick to my old, uncut retail copy though.
So the final game was released a couple days ago and they still kept in this completely unnecessary and pointless censorship, no country has swastikas banned in video games anymore and no country has the Japanese rising sun banned especially considering Japan still use that symbol in there current flag today. This sort of thing only brings negativity to your game and pisses people off, especially when there’s no justified reason for it. So yeah great job Kalypso...
I loved the game, but seriously this pissed me extremely off, we are playing WWII for F sake, who are we fighting some random people? Is there a mod to run the original game with 16:9 resolution
Everything that was unique and important in the history was censored in this game.......... Are we playing the game in the historical setting or not? If they dont want to offend anyone maybe they shouldnt make any game???? That would be the best...
Well, they can play it themselves and censor it anyway they want. I'll try to launch original game on Win10. Forgot to mention, coop was cut away. So it's SP only.
@@MyNigellus why emulate? Commandos games are on steam, and they work just fine on windows 10, except maybe Commandos 3,but even that game seems to have been fixed.
Instead of keeping everything and just making better graphics they already changed the game. For sure not interested from what I saw on the video! Too bad and I was excited!
They clearly did this to sell more copies and maybe to sell to the chinese. (the burning men not included) HOWEVER. Commandos 2 was about presenting history. Thats why they even had videos of the war and explanations.. Of course the commandos in game are not real but they represent something, the green beret, the french resistance, the us soldiers... They all had a part to play. Censorship just is an affront to our history. History should not be censored. I absolutely loved this game, its the first game i played ever. And i used to play it with my dad daily. He loved it as much as i did. I was about to buy it now for both of us as gift but seeing what they did with it now... well.. I'll just have to load the old version and live some nostalgia with him. Shame really
Remember that time the Wolfenstein franchise censored all the nazi imagery "in order to avoid breaking the law in certain countries"... Nah neither do I. I'd rather play the original game thanks, what an epic fail.
WTF?! That's so idiotic from the developers. I just downloaded the original one from steam, and I'm playing it! It works fine, and it's 100 times better than the so called remaster!
Wow, I didn't expect that. I was so hyped to play this remaster version, but now I am so dissapointed with those changes. Makes no sense at all, I'm not buying this crap :/
People like to avoid anything deemed offensive in the slightest sense, but in doing so they have downplayed the height of the axe's war crimes and infamy
Making a WWII game and worrying about offending people? I wonder how the next game will be. Are you gonna befriend Hitler? Since it is still the beta, they might be changing the textures though.
I only have an explanation about the Swastikas. Kalyso is from Germany so maybe they can not put Swastikas. But I dont understan the other things This remaster is a shit... This, bugs everywhere and the faces of Commandos members...
You can buy old version of commandos in steam, or you can install your copy. After that, download from here www.moddb.com/mods/commandos-2-destination-paris Complete the instructions to play it. And the last step is to copy the missions (E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Commandos 2 Men of Courage\DATA\MISIONES) of your old commandos (steam or CD) in the folder of commandos HD. (E:\Steam\steamapps\common\Commandos 2 Men of Courage\Legacy\DATA\MISIONES). Then, you have your old commandos in HD
I honestly didnt even care about the censorship, except maybe the burning animation. What really ruined this """"remaster"""" for me is the fact they removed coop multiplayer. I was so looking forward to playing this with my mates...
hi mate i live in england. i been playing all commandos series since 2000 and till . but never been played destination paris so can you please guide me to where i can buy the cd ? i downloaded the link from you but keep saying insert disc. please help me mate. thanks.
It's for China and since it's going to be on consoles as well things are shittier than only pc. Same procedure as always. If console > expect some dumb down mechanic or censorship
I'll admit I didn't do a very good job showing the censored burning enemies here because I made this video pretty quick. I should of used a flamethrower because you can see it easier then. But when the enemies are running around burning they don't have a flame on them, they just turn brown.
Im glad i refunded it, We say NO to things like that... this is unbelivable how we gonna wait for a manhunt 3 when they cencor everything from symbols to gore?
wait, wasn't the remaster actually made by a German company ? One based in the modern woke, migrant-flooded, politically correct Germany ? Yeah, there's the answer
Hello there, I have used your footage here in a recent video I made regarding this game's censorship. I have naturally given you credit for it, but if you are curious here is the link to my video: ruclips.net/video/nUdcmkmlOTo/видео.html

@@zevooxgames2366 they said they didn't want to offend anyone xD

It is.
This is how you force someone to not buy your games. Seriously, what were they thinking when they censored all this.
Well, they can play it themselves and censor it anyway they want.
I'll try to launch original game on Win10.
Forgot to mention, coop was cut away. So it's SP only.
Every war movie has no problem with the flags but they censor them in a game, so stupid.
That's it, I'm not buying it although it might be my top favorite game ever.
Same feeling. Old but gold. Guess I have to emulate it on some old machine ;D

Nah, they didn't change the game at all, only the graphics. And the effects (blood, explosions...) are looking worse than before...
Even the intro of the game they censored Hitler out of it.
Why? Kalypso, the publisher of Commandos 2 HD, is firm financially rewarded by German Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure.
No buy, thx for remind me dev "don't like it, don't buy it"
They even cut out Hitler from the intro video...
Jack O´hara "Butcher" = Tiny
Tomas Hancock "Fireman" = Inferno
Samuel "Brooklyn" = Thread
Rene Duchamp "Frenchy" = Spooky
etc...……….:(
I mean why couldn't they make the 3d head bop a bit slower it looks like they are on ecstasy with that pace.

It's not about history. It's not even close to historically accurate. There were no green berets until 20 years after ww2
Remember that time the Wolfenstein franchise censored all the nazi imagery "in order to avoid breaking the law in certain countries"... Nah neither do I. I'd rather play the original game thanks, what an epic fail.
Imagine WW2 game with no WW2 sides
Commandos 2 HD Remaster? Should be called Commandos 2 HD Disaster, with all the unnecessary censorship in a World War 2 themed game.
I've been waiting for the game for so long, but I guess I'll reconsider buying it now. Fuck pr and censorship. censored = no money form me
Aaaaaand I’m not interested. Censorship is a no-no.

That would be the next step in historical accuracy these days...
Lol, the Mandela effect is real, history is changed.
Let the producer update the simples. Otherwise, it will decrease the value of the game
Welcome to 1984
should've made soldiers pinky as well
What's next? Erasing swastikas from historical photos and videos?
I only have an explanation about the Swastikas. Kalyso is from Germany so maybe they can not put Swastikas. But I dont understan the other things This remaster is a shit... This, bugs everywhere and the faces of Commandos members...

But I thought they lifted the banning of swastikas in video games in Germany as long as its used in a historical context.

I really don't understand the censorship. It's a game about killing Nazis for goodness sake.
Literally WTF? Who's working on that remake? I want to make sure to never buy games that are messed up by that studio.
can you give me the download link of commandos 3 destination berlin

You must have commandos 2 men of courage installed first, destination Paris is a mod not a separate game
Is there a way to add it back ?
incompetent developers. its a buggy mess.
Really? Thats ridiculous! I won't lose my time buying this shit.
thanks for this, i refuse to buy now just for this reason, snowflakes take over.
Censorship is cancer.
Miss opportunity for this beautiful game to shine again. Bad recreation of the faces, censorship, bugs...it's a demaster

I have the beta from the steam code I got for pre ordering the game on kalypso’s website
SirRH hmm so do I hahah weird
Вы там совсем уже охренели? Против кого мы воюем, против обычных людей или врагов человечества? Вы со своей цензурой уже совсем с ума сошли!
The censorship is stupid AF, but... SINCE WHEN IS THIS GAME GOING TO BE REMASTERED? BECAUSE I WANT IT
Not buying this
Im glad i refunded it, We say NO to things like that... this is unbelivable how we gonna wait for a manhunt 3 when they cencor everything from symbols to gore?
I don't want to buy this game anymore.
Perhaps not that relevant since aircraft is just flying and difficult to see, but unmarked military vehicles are probably a war crime
There's nothing offensive about it, but why they censor the Japanese Aircraft for no reasons?
Probably because they want to sell the game on the EGS (owned by China).
Japan killed A LOT of chinese people during ww2. read about Nanking rape. If you want sell game on chinese market you must remove those.
Can i play commandos on mobile
This game is dead after censored !!! No for me !
I won't buy it.
Commandos are dead
nice video :D
wait, wasn't the remaster actually made by a German company ?
One based in the modern woke, migrant-flooded, politically correct Germany ?
