What are linear shooters these days? Figuratively speaking, these are "short-distance races". There are many impressions, but there is not enough variety, and "running" to the finish line is not difficult and does not require much time. Such projects allow you to relax and unwind. After all, you don't need to go into the twists and turns of a twisted plot; understand management; listen to the dialogues. Such games generally do not require anything from the player, except to click on the left mouse button. They're not bad, but they don't bring anything new to the genre.
The Brothers in Arms Game:Road to Hill 30, developed by Gearbox Software and published by Ubisoft, was released on March 1, 2005 (in Russia on May 12, 2005). The developers promised beautiful graphics, a thoughtful plot and decorated with gameplay elements unusual for a shooter, the main feature of which was the ability to command an entire platoon of fighters.
The plot told about a young sergeant Matt Baker, who, by the will of fate, was appointed platoon commander (against his will) and was forced to take part in hostilities against the German occupiers in France. As a member of the 101st Airborne Division, he was paratroopedwith his "brothers in arms" right behind enemy lines. The story tells about eight days of Baker's life in real hell.
But what about the gameplay, because the developers promised a lot of unique innovations in the shooter genre? Only a few buttons were used to control the platoon, which is undoubtedly a plus. Giving commands to subordinates is intuitive, which helps a lot in combat when there is very little time to assess the situation. But if you have decided to pull off a clever strategic move, then the tactical pause mode will help you with this. Upon entering it, time stops, giving the player the opportunity to fully inspect the battlefield and make the right move that will help win the battle, which is very important, since allies are not immortal, and completing the mission alone is a very difficult task.
Another distinguishing feature of the game from most shooters are the characters. In many war games, a relatively small number of characters are included in the plot, who are somehow related to the player. Everyone else is playing the role of extras. In Brothers in Arms, almost all the characters have their own thoughtful character, unique voice, face and habits. It is because of this that the death of one of them is very catchy and sinks into the soul of the player.
The developers also promised good graphics. But then there was a slight oversight. The promised "gorgeous" picture, which was shown to us in the screenshots, was not there. The graphics turned out to be average, which, however, did not spoil the game itself, because the developers relied on realism. And we can say that they did not lose.
In the game menu there is an item "Archive" where the player, as the game progresses, opens various files that show the various stages of the game's development; real photos of the territories where the fighting took place and which the developers fully reproduced in the game; and much more. There you can see how much they wanted to reproduce in the game, the real events of many years ago. And we can safely say that they succeeded.
The Brothers in Arms game came out as a great product that was really liked by players all over the world. It has brought something new to the shooter genre and therefore it should be played by all fans of the genre.
