DFBHD reveiw. September 3, 2007 Walter Raineys Appliance 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My boys are always on the computer playing the game and it is very entense. It give them hand and eye challenges and really makes them think. I have played some on the game and find it fun and challengeing as well.
Stupid game - memorize and win June 18, 2007 P. Visser (Washington) If you like to play games where you know where the enemy is and can turn a corner and shoot to kill - this is the game for you. The format remains exactly the same every time. Your "team" does nothing but get in your way. I liked a couple of the early delta force games but this one SUCKS.
Graphics Better But Disappointing in Other Areas June 2, 2007 Mike Warrior This is the game that put Novaworld on the map. Unlike previous versions of the DF series, BHD has a different graphics engine. It was highly popular for the first 2 years. Hundreds of servers and thousands of people played the game including myself. Let's start with the good things first, weapons are very powerful, and there is a wide variety to choose from. Game formats are good it has TKOTH, where a team camps in an area to win the game, Razorball is knives only, the team the scores the most flags wins. TDM, the team the kills the other team the most wins. And so on. PSPs was an improvement from previous versions. Now the bad parts. Firstly, stock maps are uneven. You have for example Culture Clash A and B.
The imbalanced maps which also included some custom maps gave an advantage to one team over the other. Secondly, the lack of variety of buildings. In the map editor, there are clumps of buildings. It makes even custom maps look similar. These buildings should have been broken apart for better placement by the map maker. Third, left and right leans, rolling on the ground. You have a strong side lean and a weaker one. It gives you the impression of unrealistic angles, thus rewards those who spray or cut more often more success of hitting their target. For example you see a guy rolling on the ground, he can still knife you while rolling over which is an impossible angle.
Fourthly, the problem of glitching. While moving backwards creates a glitch for the knifer to have a longer reach than moving forward. Some servers tried to in force a rule of not moving backwards but some do not play by the rules causing name calling among players. Shooting into objects like a building is also a glitch. If your player gets close enough to the object, the gun or knife goes right through the object killing the intended target which can't see you. A major flaw in the game. Anyway, the game is dying as far as online gaming, but if you want a change in pace, the game might be worth to buy for it's missions and such. You might find some fun place to play online, but generally don't expect it to last...I believe the DF series in general is dying, Novaworld lost it's touch with the hardcore players over the years by releasing too many versions in one year after the success of BHD. Also the style of play has slowed down a lot unlike previous games.
Great First Person Shooter May 16, 2007 Manuel D. Benitez (Ft. Lauderdale, FL) This is a great, inexpensive first person shooter. The online community is pretty substantial, and you can always find a fun, or competative online game.
shooter January 5, 2007 Ralph W. Smith Jr. (PA) Great Game !! Tries to be as real as can be in a game. no problems with install or installing exp packs. I dont think you would be disappointed.
