Re: Vietnam DLC
I've lost the first few hours, but I'm already very impressed with the add-on developers. The servers are full of players, the Vietnam conquest mode is very well done in the multiplayer version. The enemies are intelligent and the bushes start talking when you least expect it. The whole thing is vivid and you can't see the artificiality of the game - on the contrary, it brims with realism. Personally, I got stressed out and didn't know where the reload button was when an enemy was firing at me from the middle of the jungle, shot comrades were groaning in pain on the ground, and loud helicopters were flying over my head. Very good weapon mechanics, choosing the right sounds increases the immersion and makes you feel like a real soldier, taking part in the conflict. Opponents talk to each other. While performing various actions, player characters speak charismatic dialogues. When we shoot, we feel realistic recoil. The jungle is alive, we can hear every rustle, breeze and whisper of the enemy. Falling shell casings let us know that someone is nearby. In addition, the developers have added a system of eating food and drinking water - at first I was not convinced to it. But after a while of playing, it turned out that it is very well balanced. It doesn't tire the player, but adds an element of realism. When I and a squad of my English-speaking comrades were ambushed by the Vietcong, I was wounded while moving along a road on the outskirts of Saigon. A friendly team came to my aid and rescued the few survivors of the attack. My character, after bleeding for a few minutes, had to replenish fluids to regain strength for further patrol. When the enemy attacked again - we radioed for air support. The jungle was on fire, and the visuals and sound design gave me the opportunity to feel the heat of the scorched earth on my face.
