Posted October 10, 2008 Brothers in Arms: Hell's Highway is the third entry in the Brothers in Arms series of video games which follow a squad of men, of the 101st Airborne Division (502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment) led by the player-character Matt Baker. This game once again puts players in the role of Staff Sergeant Matt Baker during Operation Market Garden in the later stages of World War II. Gameplay The game has many new features, including the ability to command a further squad from a selection of new specialized units (bazooka and machine gun teams). When a command is issued, the player model uses hand signals to issue the command to his squad, just like the previous games in the series. The player also has the ability to take cover behind objects and fire from a third person perspective, in a manner similar to Rainbow Six Vegas, which is an integral part of the game's strategy. A new “health†system has replaced the more punishing set health per mission system of previous titles in the franchise. With this system, the player's screen begins to turn red as they expose from cover and will return to normal when they take cover, failure to do so will result in Baker getting shot. The AI has been drastically improved, and the player's team will adapt to whether or not they are seen by whispering. The AI also makes mistakes such as tripping, and helps each other when these mistakes are made. The enemy AI has also been improved allowing the Germans to counter your actions. The game is built on the Unreal Engine 3 and the Windows version can take advantage of the features in DirectX 10 which allows for an enhanced graphical experience for more realistic gameplay. My thoughts... I am extremely surprised how good it was, it has some good aspects fromthe last series. The shooting is much better and you can take on the whole campaign alone. I finished it in 7hrs which was all ine one day :-\. Shooting is much better than the earlier versions, the guns are much more accurate. Ive taken 3 youtube videos of me playing on my PC to show you the gameplay Enjoy! MA15+ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
