Heaven Angel Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Homefront: The Revolution has plenty of potential with its unique setting and premise, but its completely let down by dated design, unengaging combat, a boring story, and performance problems to boot. Homefront: The Revolution boasts solid gameplay and impressive level design, but tonally it's a disaster. An interesting change of pace for a first person shooter that has some nice ideas and mechanics, but can’t quite get everything to sing. Though its world has some great aesthetic devices and a cool concept, ultimately all of Homefront: The Revolution’s elements feel repetitive, unpolished, or downright unnecessary. Over the length of its campaign it fails to deliver a satisfying - or even fully functional - shooter experience. It’s got this weird bubbling heart underneath it, a clear desire to be a great game despite not being able to reach it. It’s packed, varied, and so bloody enormous. It’s a real muddle, and a muddle for which I’ve developed a real soft spot. A valiant effort has been made to salvage this long troubled game from the doldrums, but despite some good ideas, solid combat, and neat concepts, Homefront: The Revolution suffers for its long gestation more than it benefits from it. Homefront: The Revolution is doing little more than checking off boxes Simply put, Homefront: The Revolution is outclassed in its bracket by every other big-budget game released this generation. And that’s without getting into how shockingly sh*t the PC version is. This game made me feel unwell, it bored me to tears, and it irritated the piss out of me. Not the disaster many had anticipated, but also fundamentally flawed. While Homefront: The Revolution had potential to be great, its mediocre gameplay, lackluster story and myriad of technical issues make it one of the biggest disappointments of the generation.

WCCFtech (56/100) Homefront: The Revolution is a disappointment no matter how you slice it. Maybe Deep Silver Dambuster can improve it over time and when that happens, the game could be worth a purchase in a sale; as it is, though, it simply cannot be recommended with many better options available for gamers. VideoGamer (60/100) Not the disaster many had anticipated, but also fundamentally flawed. GameWatcher (65/100) Despite the shoddy graphics and performance, and a story that could use polish in its execution, Homefront: The Revolution has a solid foundation. It’s challenging and the mission variety in a pseudo open-world game is the best I’ve played in a while. It kept me engaged for its 22 hours. At the end, I felt satisfied. I hope to see another one with a bigger budget behind it. Hardcore Gamer (40/100) While Homefront: The Revolution had potential to be great, its mediocre gameplay, lackluster story and myriad of technical issues make it one of the biggest disappointments of the generation. We Got This Covered (40/100) Homefront: The Revolution has plenty of potential with its unique setting and premise, but its completely let down by dated design, unengaging combat, a boring story, and performance problems to boot.

WhiteWolf Posted May 17, 2016 Report Share Posted May 17, 2016 Happy to help. What's perplexing is that the game was semi-decent at Gamescom last year. I think Crytek was working on it first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
