Firefight - WW2 for Negative User Reviews

✓ I hope the developers see this because his game could be incredibleFor starters I am a huge fan of strategy based games, especially World War II. This reminds me very much of the command and conquer series. Which when I was younger was one of my favorite games, and stomach crossfire fight excited me, seeing as how I haven’t played the game style in years, and I have failed to find an emulator online. The Game however becomes unplayable after period of five. That is because the AI makes no sense. I have lost multiple I’ve powered vehicles to one tank, or one bazooka team. However when utilizing these same units, they run from tanks, even when they have the element of surprise and the better angle they still manage to be blown up before the end of the tank. I don’t understand the mechanics of this game. I find the fastest way to win is to just raise the flag and hold down with as many units for the enemy troops arrive, which totally takes away the purpose. If you improved the unit capabilities game would immediately improve..Magizzle20Version: 3.2

✓ Please fixThe game is good but it needs better AI and also more scenarios.Picobob78Version: 3.2

✓ Many problems and concerns1. It seems like enemy tanks can spot you from anywhere and always hold an advantage over your armour. Even if you factor in the element of surprise the enemy armour cloaks itself after it shoots at you. 2. You always find yourself on the offensive against a defending enemy, even when you’re playing as the Germans; meaning you have move from the bottom of the map to take the flag and don’t get to experience the opposite. 3. French and German forces do not speak in their native languages when issuing commands, while the British speak in an American accent..Andre551524Version: 3.1.2

✓ EAMicrotransations.Anonymous6873876588377887578Version: 3.2

✓ It is a good game but it needs improvement.I like this game but it is very unbalanced. The attacking side always receives reinforcements and the defending side receives nothing, making the fight one sided from the start. The custom game mode is disabled when I try to play against my friends in a network match, meaning whoever is the defending party will most definitely lose. I would like it if each side could have a supply truck that can supply troops, tanks, and anti tank guns with ammo. The supply truck should be able to be destroyed if discovered by the enemy like any other vehicle. If not a supply truck then maybe a supply point for each side that can be strategically placed before the match..JellcifurVersion: 4.2.2

✓ Good game, too much in app purchasesIt’s a good game overall, but there are way too many in app purchases. It’d be more fun if you could play more maps, like if you finish one map, you could do the other.YomamafatyeetVersion: 4.3.4

✓ Close combat from PC to IOSThis game is awesome but I beg the developers to get rid of having to pay for the missions it only ruins it for your fans please listen to my plead...I will follow this game for a long time and follow you as a Dev if you get rid of this so called pay for missions stuff and I'm sure there are many people who feel the same..please I beg aha 😊 anyway great game deserves more popularity,very old school..Melissa LamVersion: 1.4

✓ Very impressive, BUTVery impressive, refreshing and detailed combat system, surprised by high level of unit and map detail. However, after already paying for the full version of the game, I was disappointed to again be expected to pay MORE for the addition in 1 new faction. A pretty average attempt at a cash grab and an unexpected development. Zero appreciation or support for early supporters of this project..Wargamer123098Version: 4.4.1

✓ Horrible gameTanks have a mind of their own. If they are trying to copy the old ‘Close Combat’ they failed horribly. In no mission can you defend. You’re only tasked with offensive maneuvers. Like I said earlier, the tanks that are under your control do what ever they wish. I placed 3 tanks on a firing line (PzIV, Sturm, Panther) all three were knocked out by a single Sherman tank because once the Sherman fired all my tanks reversed and showed the rear end of their chassis. I mean....really???.Loverofvideogames😜Version: 3.2

✓ Great concept, bad controlsThis game really looks like a pretty cool game. I enjoy the attention to each individual soldiers armament, as well as injuries, and even the tank crew can put up a fight somewhat after their vehicle is destroyed. However, it's hard to fully enjoy the game because the controls are REALLY confusing and also unresponsive. Troops may not move to where I tell them to and can't fire where I want them to fire. Tank are even worst as they expose themselves to enemies and rarely ever shoot the the enemy. I also think, to make things easier and more understandable, there should be completely different controls, rather than having to move around a little blue bar (that a loose track of half the time) you should be able to tap where you want your units to move and possibly a double tap so they can attack, I know this is long but I hope you read this, keep up the good work.😎Swagmaster2121😎Version: 3.2

✓ Frame rateI can't play the game because the frame rate I tried everything it won't fix please fix soon it's that bad I can't even Play it please fix I would give it five stars🙂👍🏻👍🏻✍🏻.Had 1000000000Version: 3.1.2

✓ Say nothingPlease focus on infantry I’ve been looking for games like this for so long and when I finally find one it always is one sided to armour.FndjdjbVersion: 4.0.1

✓ Beyond frustratingNothing, and I mean nothing is more frustrating than this game when your own tanks die to much lighter tanks shooting at you from the front and yours don’t even get a shot off, or when you want your squad to assault a building, give them the “Move!” order several times but because they got shot at by the single remaining occupant they go to ground and refuse to move until another squad clears the building. All right game but for $15 with the lack of levels, well I’d rather a refund given how infuriating it is..StatixdestroyallVersion: 4.0.1

✓ HorribleYou can only play one map the tutorial on each map so I think it’s pointless as you have to pay for more.FutjgjrhfudytgjdjvVersion: 5.2.0

✓ Expensive 💰Maps are way to expensive, otherwise it would have been really fun..AxvnhnhvxVersion: 3.1.1

✓ BadBut the panzer iv armour is too great. It took a direct hit from air strike. Also your tanks aim where you want them to shoot for 5 minutes then shoot after along time. Also my tank aimed before a panzer and it did not fire a shot then mine got destroyed even though it aimed before. Why does artillery only damage on direct hits even though it is in the fireball. NO SENCE.GtggggvgvVersion: 4.2.2

✓ Pretty well put together but wildly inaccurate.It’s a nice game, needs more maps. But mostly zero thought has been put into the armor and main gun values of tanks, or historical unit purchases. Stuart’s, ordinary Sherman’s and Churchill’s can penetrate a Jagdpanther’s frontal armor, while shrugging off multiple hits from it’s higher velocity 88. R35’s with their stubby 37 have the same penetrating power as a pzIII/35/38t. Churchills and Fireflies zipping across the battlefield killing everything like they’re an Abrams, or chasing off better armored tanks by just hitting them a few times. Infantry morale is consistently bad across the board, with little backbone unless it’s SS Grenadiers, who apparently are armed with modern small arms, night vision, etc. Turret traverse appears to be equal for all varieties regardless of whether they’re heavy, light, manually or mechanically operated. No tank was using APCR in 1940. Units are rarely damaged, when even a KV-1 that absorbs 30+ hits would lose a track. Lack of radios in early war tanks has been ignored, they all coordinate like it’s 1990. And suddenly the Japanese have the best tanks in the world in 1942, with a dozen showing up on what would have been Guadalcanal, where they had practically none. Artillery is basically useless unless it’s smoke or against infantry running in the open, or it’s the game’s artillery against a human player. Pretty game, mechanics seem to work, just not historically..OgNotadoucheVersion: 7.4.0

✓ Great but not at allIt’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..Roro123455Version: 3.2

✓ Plz read devs!This game is absolutely amazing and I think you guys did a wonderful job on this game. But there is 1 issue that I have, the tanks do not listen, for instance this morning I was playing and I told my tank to go to cover but no, it literally went the opposite way and got destroyed by an enemy tank. This is very annoying since tanks do play a very important role in winning. Now here are a few things you guys should add- 1.online multiplayer(you don't have to be on the same wifi network) 2.a beach landing mission(d-day) 3.air support 4.being able to see the same "stats" of your units on iPhone as you can on the iPad version 5.transport trucks for transporting infantry 6.being able to tell infantry to throw a grenade in a specific location 7. A button to select all your units so you can give them 1 order as a whole 8. A Veitnam era version, there just isn't any good veitnam war games on the AppStore and if you guys made it how you did the ww2 version it would be amazing. UPDATE******* Ok, so I was just reading some of the other reviews and some were saying how men of assault squad is better.......YOU CANT COMPARE A GAME THAT A CONSOLE CANT SUPPORT TO A MOBILE GAME!.Goatman777Version: 3.1.2

✓ Used to be great, but needs updateI’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..HatfieldCreativeArtsVersion: 5.2.0

✓ Only one map?Closest thing to an old game I loved called Close Combat. I just can’t figure out how after doing the purchase every scenario is using the exact same map? What gives..L5005Version: 6.1.1

✓ Needs workGreat potential but sometimes the AI is really bad. Tanks have a kind of their own and there’s always a few members of a infantry squad who won’t move after commanded too..Lukas 123ftwVersion: 7.3.1

✓ Pay cashI not paying for in game content.RiegmanVersion: 3.2

✓ Why do you have to pay to unlock all the levelsIt’s not fair that people have to pay to unlock the levels if you didn’t I would rate this game a 5 star but I have deleted it because You have to pay please change this.Master stratergist 124Version: 3.2

✓ Absolutely pooThe game is baddddddd, the driving mechanic is poo, the AI is very unbalanced and trash, not close to be worth £10 £20 pound rip off When a tank gets destroyed in a middle of the road and the one behind it just crashes into over and over and over again and won’t go around it. Tanks also constantly shoots a destroyed enemy tank even though it’s empty. They also prefer to shoot infantry than tanks Infantry- when the come under artillery fire they won’t move a muscle to get out of the way but instead take the blasts and die The enemy artillery is very accurate compared to the allied artillery same with the mortars.Redshaw12344567736Version: 5.2.0

✓ Totally inaccurateUpdate - TOTALLY RUBBISH, I have tried to have another go at this game Tanks do insane moves and are so dumb looking in the wrong direction no matter what you want them to do, I give up 2 tiger tanks vs a comet and the comet wins - REALLY FO! A 6 pounder vs a tiger tank and it destroys the tank EVERY TIME! Ridiculous - has the developer even read anything about these weapons? SORT IT OUT! This game ‘could’ be SO much better As stated by others. The enemy have a massive advantage Try firing a mortar - I’ve never seen anything so inaccurate, I have fired mortars for real! They are very accurate and caused more casualties than any other weapon in WW2. You can’t see the enemy until it’s too late and the enemy always have the drop on you - terrible and very annoying.RCBROADBENTVersion: 3.2

✓ Love itLove this game, attention to scenery detail is good as are the ricochets, however artillery barrages takes forever, ranging shots sure why not but the whole thing takes far to long. Also my units can see the enemy, particularly tanks and you know this because they are shooting at it but I can't see it (the tank or enemy troops) on screen. You get a little red icon but when you zoom in it disappears and nothing's there. Reminds me of Close Combat on the PC! To buy the whole game is £15 and I would do this if the little things get some attention. Overall a jolly good game..AndyTingVersion: 4.3.2

✓ Dont bother downloadingThis game will drain your wallet and send you on the streets! Every mission you haveto pay for. Why pay for a online thing? The game isnt even good! Be carefull of scams, People..LmaohehehehaVersion: 5.1.0

✓ AI problems and custom playFirstly the AI is and acts absolutely stupid not listening when told to move, Going into a firefight when told to move somewhere else, sitting in a position and getting destroyed when already told to MOVE, and finally the AI shooting is near useless if you don’t focus fire manually. The Custom game should be unlimited money because it’s CUSTOM. If we wanted to have a game where we couldn’t actually play how we want we’d just play the missions which also need tons of work. Not to mention the game being a money trap all of the maps together cost well over 70+ dollars and you can’t even have an actual custom mode where you can use the units you want without a money block? Could’ve been such a great game sad the developers are too lazy to actually put in some work on it..JcrusherjayVersion: 7.1.0

✓ OkBig fan of the old close combat series so I hope this stacks up. Already getting frustrated when one German tank knocks out 4 of yours though.Daaazzzaaa78Version: 4.2.2

✓ Read This | ImportantThis is easily one of the best WW2 games made out there, but like most games, has flaws. First thing first, add at least one or two more levels for the tutorial, so people get a better experience of the game. Some other problems I think you can fix are the effectiveness of the vehicles. A tank should not be instantly killed by AA guns and SS Grenadiers, and other tanks. I know not all tanks are (like the Tiger) but I feel like all tanks shouldn’t be one shot. Another thing would be the movement of men and vehicles (They seem to just stand still, even when they’re not in combat sometimes). The last thing is the AI. The enemy sees you before you see them (I know it’s a bot, but they should be able to “see” you when you see them). I can’t drive my tank around a corner without instantly getting destroyed by an AA gun. I do truly truly truly love this game and it can be VERY amazing. I just hope the owner actually cares about his buyers/fans..MrReviewiOSGamesVersion: 3.2

✓ This game could be good.This game is a full on pay to play, actually 99%. You can do the tutorial for free. You must buy everything if you want to play more than just the tutorial. In gameplay the controls are ok for a game like this men of was assault squad 2 is a great example of awesome controls for this kind of game. The troops never move instantly, they always sit there for a few minutes, then carry on the order. Tanks are ok, they are really super duper dumb, and blind. The infantry carry out orders super slow, this is realistic, by checking corners for enemies and covering each other. BUT you can press the hurry up button, they will move a lot faster, they still move slow and check corners, but they don’t move like snails..Puzzleman1000Version: 3.2

✓ Good game butTank AI is really bad and I mean really really bad. Why would a tank back up into a house, I been playing for a really long time and it does that and it’s been so annoying even though I don’t position it like that. Then there’s the tank turret facing backward when enemies are in the front. That happens so many time. The turret should always be facing the front unless I tell them to turn. In some case I do tell them to turn their turrets but in most case they doze off into random position. I wish you can add more to this game like a sandbox, make it iPhone friendly, select multiple units and make them do stuff as one. I wish you can actually drop paratrooper right in, more urban towns like Paris, Berlin and etc, I wish you can do levels where you have to defend against an attack and so on. I understand you are just one person and you have a life but I really see potential in this game and I really hope you can improve it, thank you..Lunboy731Version: 3.1.2

✓ To get more people to playGood game and fun but people downloaded this play a little amount and won’t want to buy maps to play more but with the online you could different countries skins which you could make buy pls listen and add so of my idea and you could make benefit. Thank you for listening.Pls and you benifit for itVersion: 3.2

✓ MisleadingFree to download but not free to play..MissLeadihgVersion: 3.2

✓ Make it freeYou should make the maps free.Stee yarioVersion: 3.2

✓ The AI need workMost 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.LpmcmullenVersion: 4.0.2

✓ Unresponsive unitsWhenever I order a unit to move it takes them about 20 minutes to start moving and when I try to get a armoured unit to fire it completely ignores and does whatever it wants....NuclearroVersion: 3.2

✓ Close but no cigarIt reminds me of the old Close Combat games, but just not as good. It’s pretty cool that your guys yell for a medic and it tells you when people die or get wounded, but the controls are weird. You can tell your units to go a certain place, but if they see an enemy, they will just ignore your commands and start shooting. If they take fire, they will just sit there like fresh targets and there is no pause button, so taking a view at the battle is impossible. Suddenly a tank will die and the crew will take cover in a nearby building and you for some reason can’t control them. It’s strange. A pause button would be great, especially for the beginning. Also, you can have an enemy firing at you, but not be visible or targetable. You can just target the building they are in and hope for the best. Plus the buildings in this version of Europe are the strongest. They can take at least 20 Sherman shells without ever falling down or killing a single unit inside. I kind of want to keep playing, but 10 bucks is a lot for a tutorial I was pretty unimpressed by..Defcon106Version: 5.0.0

✓ Fix this…The game is a really cool concept and some pretty cool mechanics but it’s not worth that much money.Cacaman242Version: 5.0.0

✓ Good but way too expensiveThis is an excellent game for those who like a more immersive tactical experience. Realistic use of ground, fire missions, tactical decision making are all strong positives, as are the reasonably regular updates. However for the price this is simply nowhere near a 5 start game. I’m aware it takes a lot to create an original game and kudos to the developer, but I’m afraid the game is far too limited and one dimensional for the price tag. Not only that, once you’ve decided to support the developer and make the initial payment every other update seems to be behind another paywall. I’ve been waiting a while for new maps and units but I’m simply not willing to pay console prices for what is a fairly basic mobile game. Great potential, ruined by developer greed..IvevzonVersion: 5.1.0

✓ Brilliant, but there’s a lot of buts...This is such a brilliant concept, and brilliant game, I love it. I just wish that the iPhone X didn’t have grey bars at the top, you say you’ve made this relationship for the iPhone X but everything just looks squashed and crushed up now. I’d also like a landscape mode for more detail like on the PC game? Keep up the work though this has potential to be 5 star.Ed BaylissVersion: 3.2
