    This is the first lower-tier developer game you've covered that I've actually already played. I got it in a 90% off Steam sale, completed it in about 3 hours, then forgot it existed. I'm not running a high powered PC and not an expert on PC specs in general, so avoided having the launch issue you faced. I didn't notice the weird sound effect issues just because I didn't have that awareness but can totally hear it now you've pointed it out. I agree with how hilarious the voice acting was. Overall I agree with your points they just didn't bother me as much as it pissed you off. For the equivalent of $2 I found it acceptable. I'd never recommend it and I've put more thought into this comment than I did the entire game, but I didn't mind it. Hearing you shred it though was hilarious.

    That's not a unique problem you faced from the 2000's PC days. Since the common resolution was 1080p and 720p most developers didn't make games for any higher resolution. I've run into that same problem with a few myself, I just left it in 1080p.

    • @Jarekthegamingdragon
      @Jarekthegamingdragon  3 года назад

      It's a common problem for games in the mid-late 2000's. It absolutely isn't common past that. Problem is, this game did not come out in the late 2000's. It came out in 2016. Also just leaving it in 1080p is not a solution. As I said, the game literally will not open if it is at its default resolution. It will try to open then immediately close until you change the resolution in an ini file. Playing at 1080p when I have a 1440p screen wouldn't be acceptable any way.

    This game looks and feels like someone set out to make the most generic Unreal Engine 3 late 7th gen / early 8th gen FPS possible. It coming out in 2016 puts it a bit behind the curve but that's indie gaming for ya. Still, I wouldn't put it in the same category as Chaser or Exodus from the Earth. Those games were terrible due to god-awful combat balancing and a complete failure to properly mark the critical path. E.T. Armies is just incredibly generic and somewhat below average (though the movement speed IS too slow given the size of the environments, a problem which feels very Unreal 2 to me). Then again I never ran into any of the gameplay issues like not being able to fire after a reload if you try to shoot during the reload, which I guess comes down to personal playstyle.

      so the game basicly got delayed for about 3 years before releasing,the maker,raspina stuidos had issues releasing because of iranian laws with publishin and even with a release it was all funded by them which keep in mind,struggled to make enough for a living,hence why it being shit.the entire game making scene in iran is just lackluster at best and a dumpster fire at worste
