Delta Force: Black Hawk Down

Finally, one isn't quite sure what to expect from this title upon installing it. While it's refreshing to see that they game's designers don't base the game directly on the movie, literally none of the game entails anything that went on during the movie. Perhaps this comes down to franchise differences, licensing, the fact that that was the Army Rangers' mission for the most part or it was decided that the game didn't need this, but there's an expectation that comes with the title and it might have been fun nonetheless. That aside, this is a good, solid title and worth the attention of any first-person shooter fan looking for a new story to take part in and with a small patch or two, could become that much better.

BHD ist ein Spiel das nicht durch seine Grafik insgesamt besticht. Vielmehr sind es kleine Details wie zum Beispiel die Waffen und deren Klang, die unglaubliche Story (welche leider nicht erfunden wurde), die strategischen Entscheidungen und die humorvollen Elemente welche das Spiel ausmachen. Am besten umschreibt man ein solches Spiel wohl so: Ein intelligenter Shooter basierend auf wahren Geschehnissen der so Seinesgleichen sucht.

Toss out those forest camos and wilderness survival kits. Pack some desert fatigues, suntan lotion, and some nice shades: it’s time to move out to the desert, soldier! Such is the theme for Novalogic’s Delta Force: Black Hawk Down, a realistic (and partially based on truth) retelling of the conflict that took place between 1992 and 1993 in war torn Somalia. Already, Black Hawk Down stands out among other first person shooters for taking place in an era outside of World War II and for portraying one of the most realistic war experiences of modern times. That’s all well and good, but is it fun? Read on to find out.

Black Hawk Down est un pur jeu d'action, cependant l'IA très médiocre et le côté grosse boucherie donne un intérêt très limité au soft. La durée de vie du jeu est courte, le solo se boucle en une dizaine d'heures et le multiplayer a beau être fun mais il n'apporte rien d'extraordinaire.

Delta Force: Black Hawk Down puts you in Somalia in the early 1990s with a variety of missions that follow what actually occurred during that time, including the downing of the Black Hawk helicopter. Do you have what it takes to be a soldier?
