User Reviews for Firefight - WW2

Only Mobile game of it’s kind,

Being a tabletop war gamer I was looking for something to do that wouldn’t be as massive as Memoir 44 and not as micromanaging overload like Men of War or others but something in between and fun to do, I must say I have beaten every level but something I experienced while playing is that one of these are true: A) The enemy AI are incompetent and don’t even stand a chance, B) The enemy AI finally are processing but at lighting speeds and I don’t stand a chance, or C) Both of the AI just stare at each other in their tanks like 50 meters apart. I do like how the shrapnel works but I feel that not all of it should have that much velocity as to launch across the map - I might be wrong about that, - and finally, over all a really good game. I hope to see a lot out of this guy, and think he will make or continue to update some really great stuff in the future and will be a pretty good dev, - keep up the good work!

Pricey, yet fun

I love the way this game works- and I would love to see more missions for the french. And I would like to see the Italians and the Russians. Also, please add in supply trucks, the way they would work is. There is the unarmored supply truck which is much more vulnerable to enemy fire and artillery. And when hit it will send a load of shrapnel all over the map, once it runs out of supply’s it simply just goes off screen and 3min-5min later it will come back with more. Then there is the armored supply truck. (A half track with no mg) That is not so allergic to enemy gunfire, the armored would resupply slower. But be almost immune to enemy artillery. I’m asking for this because once a tank or halftrack runs out of ammo, it turns into a moving metal target. Infantry can also resupply from it, but it has very limited AT ammo. Also, can you make it so if a enemy tank or at gun runs out of ammo, that the enemy’s have one armored or unarmored resupply truck. The truck would move nearby and begin to resupply it.Please consider my idea, because I am a little tired of using infantry that is out of ammo as meat shields.

Really Good Game

A simple RTS on the surface with loads of depth and strategy underneath. I see reviews where people complain about tanks not being effective or them blaming unit AI for losing. Unfortunately for them, they just stink at the game. Would be fun to see defensive missions but let's be honest it will turn into an offensive on by the end of the map of your winning. It can be done though with some creative thinking and winning scenario parameters. I also wish that there was some form of squad info when you select it. I hear my squad members calling for ammo but it's tough to track down which squad is low and which is ready to go. Same with wounded and casualty info. One last thing, I wish the maps would have randomly generated unit placement. Doesn't have to be totally different, just move some units a few yards here and there and maybe one or two unit placements that differ in a big way to keep things interesting. Fun game. I can't put it down. It's perfect for a few minutes here and there. I've also found myself going hours at a time. Not many games are in the App Store that have made me do that. Highly recommended and I hope the developer keeps updating and improving. Oh and add the ability to download player created maps. I see that it's an option on PC version.

Used to be great, but needs update

I’ve been playing this game for years and thoroughly enjoy it. Kudos on the addition of the Maus, and many other new items. The ability of heavy mortars to take out armor with a precision hit is great. Despite the many great updates, The eastern front addition has been a bit of a disappointment. The maps are fine, but the effectiveness of armor thickness is way off. The frontal armor of a King Tiger being penetrated by the very first shot of a Russian 76mm at long distances? Over and over again? At no point in WWII was the frontal armor of a King Tiger ever penetrated. I understand there needs to be a gameplay balance, but now even the thickest German armor doesn’t stand a chance against the lowliest Russian gun. It’s completely lopsided in the Russian’s favor - no matter what map or date that’s applied. The other big issue is that as soon as an enemy objective is taken, the game can end in a minute or 20 minutes. Simply rush armor up the flanks, circle behind the enemy flag, drive into it, and boom - the game is over almost instantly. Sometimes the enemy will rush back to its flag station to recapture, but most times they don’t. The lack of challenge when they don’t defend their flag kills the enjoyment. I’m hoping the developer reads this and can address these issues. Otherwise 5 stars easy.

Fun, AI needs some work.

First of all, this is a great game. All the tanks look and feel realistic to how they were in real life, the action is quick and sharply like how it was in real like, and over all the maps are very well designed. Though. There is one major issue with the AI.Sometimes, even in the face of enemy’s at point blank, the AI sometimes doesn’t react. This can and is very problematic in many ways, as it can be frustrating to see two tank just stare at each other, or in some cases one tank staring at the other, only for the tank that advances up, (in most cases the players tank) to get killed. Also, a lot of them times the AI’s refuse to move, (when not in the pinned state) which can often lead to them getting killed or not being able to get kills. Still, over all a great game. AI struggles and is very smart some times, yet it could use some major improvements. As a side note, when firing at an enemy tank manually, please give us the option to fire AP rounds, as HE rounds may be useless against them.

The AI need work

Most of the time the AI don’t listen and it gets people killed if theirs one thing in war you need to know to stay alive is move when you in a open field being suppressed be two tanks not sit and be killed the tanks are borderline useless I was in one battle with all tanks I was on the American side I had 9 tanks and they were completely wiped by 3 tanks I had a Sherman and a Sherman 98mm I believe react to a scout Sherman that I sent to clear a field it got taken out by a panzer 4 so I send the tanks (the Sherman or tank 1 and the Sherman 98 tank 2) tank 2 cross a river and up a hill to engage the panzer looks at the panzer for 3 seconds does not shoot gets killed well tank 1 is running over sheep in the field behind then goes in the exact same spot and has the turret facing the wrong way as the panzer is killing tank 2s crew goes up on the crest of the hill does not rotate the turret and gets killed and that was the sway of forces I lost one more tank to get the panzer Ps a good game with lots of potential but the AI need to listen to you I wold hate to do a d-day because the AI wold not get off the beach they wold stay in the water and die even though you are telling them to move but I wold support development because this is like no other mobile game I have seen and another bit of advice look into men of war wold be a good game to base off of and a sandbox wold be a good mode

A great game but…

I feel like there should be more units like support units: engineers, spotters etc, and for armored vehicles have: motorcycle carriage ( to possibly go with spotters/scouts), self propelled arty (artillery), have it so if your defending u could add bushes or sandbags to hide/ protect your units( to go with engineers/sappers) they would be for protecting mortars or any arty if they are close to the battle, for tanks so they don’t get spotted and insta killed, troops so they can hide better etc, more tanks from different countries would be nice but there are already a lot so that doesn’t really matter, have land mines for killing enemy tanks and troops, have more of a diversity of mortars like for Germans they could have nebelwerfers, or any kind of smaller arty, have the coliapie for the Americans (sorry I butchered that name) but minus all those, I feel like the game would be a little bit improved, i hope you guys take inspiration from my Ideas and thank you for your time, oh and also I feel like for custom mode you should be able to mix match tanks and parts and mess around with soldiers ranks bc there are more ranks than PVT, PFC, CPL, SGT, 1ST LT, 2ND LT, and that is all I have to say, it’s a great game.

Excellent game

I will start by saying that I love this game. The mechanics are great, the scaling is perfect, and the scenarios well rendered. For $10, it is highly recommended. There is a really great set of units for all factions, from tanks and SPGs to mechanized and leg infantry of all types. The recent updates have only improved the system and feel of the game. Replay capability is actually really high for a game of this model, with the custom scenario options. This game obviously has its flaws, as all do; some things that need fixing, and some that just haven’t been added yet. Defensive and man made emplacements should be awesome. My only actual complaint with the current gameplay is that the AI can be a little wacky when it comes to armor. I haven’t bought the Russian stuff yet, but I hope to. I really hope that the dev has plans to add eastern front stuff, because I would certainly chip in another 10 dollars for a Stalingrad map or too.

Great but not at all

It’s a great game but a few small things ruin it completely. THE TROOPS MOVEMENT. First they won’t move after being fired at even if the people who shot at them have been suppressed by tanks. Also they just won’t listen to you. Secondly tanks visibility, one map there’s a tree that a tank hides under that can fire on your troops but you can’t see them even if you surround it. Here’s the scenario; I have a Sherman V on the front line who would be easily be able to see the tank I have another tank come up from a different angle also a Sherman V. And a piat troop move up next to the non spotted tank. But for some reason when they get there the sergeant just runs even though he hasn’t been shot at one in the mission. So the piat is useless and then all the sudden my 2nd tank exploded from the tank that I should be able to see. Now he’s firing on the tank crew and my piat runs right in front on where the tank was just firing and kills himself. Then my other tank who was just decided to run away behind a few trees blew up. As you can see if they have a full line of sight and are able to line up a shot I should at lease be able to see them with 3+ unit directly in front of them.

Amazing Game

Every game has room for improvement including this game, but the features it has are still fun and fluid to play with. It’s a great game if you have free time and you want to play some semi-historical WW2 combat. The game has tanks like infamous Tiger, Soviet T-35, Sherman and many more. A widespread variety of infantry equipment including MGs, Rifles, Automatic Rifles, SMGs, LMGs, just about every weapon seen on the fields of WW2. I personally like games with the 2d art style like the one this game has because it has character. The game has a perfect historical balance making sure the strategy feels as real as possible. Weapons function as you’d expect and they get destroyed by the things you’d expect. The in depth detail while utilizing the 2d format is impeccable. Artillery making troops pinned down, fire fighting makes troops move to fight. Tanks retreat after taking a near destroying shell. Actual Functionality flaws I’ve encountered usually get fixed very fast now that the game is being updated regularly. I would love to see more features in this game. However the feature that I think would most improve this game is the ability to set the amount of funds you receive in custom games, and I mean set not choose a number that is predistinguished.

Description

Firefight is a World War II real-time simulation game with more AI and attention to detail than any other game in its genre to date. Tanks are modelled with a physics engine and have gears, rev counters and speedos, and steer themselves with brake levers to give them realistic looking tracked vehicle movement. Each bullet, shell or piece of shrapnel is modelled in 3D and ricochets realistically off sloping surfaces.

You can see each infantryman's rank, name, weapon, ammunition remaining, heart rate and fatigue levels. Machine gunners will call for ammunition when they're running low and other squad members will rush over with spare ammo if they are carrying any. Wounded men call for medics who will sprint over to administer first aid. Off-board artillery can be called in but will have to fire several ranging shots before the full 8 gun battery opens fire simultaneously. Play either against the sophisticated built-in AI, or play a local network game against a friend using WiFi or Bluetooth.
