Any impressions? Reviews seem middling so far

I played the first missions - it was just as the orginal game I guess. That's a good thing.

At least from the first mission - and the kit they have, they've definitely borrowed from the TV show SAS Rogue Heroes and the board game SAS Rogue Regiment.

But I'm not sorry I bought it (I did get it on game pass to be fair but I was going to splurge on it on Steam).

There's a great save feature - save anytime...and I need it. You try something, set off an alarm, go back try again...

I think saying "I'm not sorry I bought it" is doing it a disservice tbh. I am enjoying it...though the second missions is a ball ache and I can't see how to "figure out the puzzle".

I'd probably say if you were a fan of the original, then chances are this is up your street. There's no big differences that stand out to me.

I'm at the 5th mission. The game is great, but sadly there are some bugs. So my suggestion is to wait a bit and buy it on sale later.

I didn't pay for it because it's in the Game Pass, which is cool.

Yeah I've come across a few bugs. Nothing game destroying at the moment but annoying little ones.

On my side I found:

- Cannot enable DLSS
- Sometimes enemies will stay died on ground but doing just a bit of glich (only aestethic).
- Some guy in the patrol start to look in the opposite direction of the patrol leader (fix after reload).

One really annoying one is it doesn't save when you finish a mission...so you're put straight into the next mission and if you die, your only load is the previous save in the last mission.

Of course you can combat this by saving when you want - it's a great save system - but I'm forgetful and have done this multiple times now. Better they should just save your damn game at the end of the last mission.

Also - on my second mission, it showed my Green Beret and a Spy when I'd finished the mission. The Spy had no stats - because I didn't have a spy - I had a sniper.

And another one is the timer for performing the mission restarts with each load...regardless of where you loaded from. I would expect the timer to restart when you RESTARTED the mission - not when you loaded a mid game save.

Some there for you to chew on.
