Quite a shame, really....

I finished the short but sweet 1P campaign of FFOW and found it to be entirely entertaining. Fairly easy to crush thru in a few hours, certainly not the best ever but worth the price of admission. It made it just that much more painfuly obvious that KAOS just dropped the ball on this one. It could have been a hit but ended up an (in)complete miss. Sad.

Re: Quite a shame, really....

to me FFOW is the definition of 'close but no cigar'
they messed up a few key key pieces of the puzzle that just trashed their chances in the marketplace
after saying that there were some areas where they were very creative and they had spent the time coding something good, eg on one kit there was the minimap on the backpack and it was a real minimap that updated in realtime
also the game mode of frontlines actually worked and was more interesting to play that conquest, there was interesting dynamics of attack or defend and when
I still find it surprising that DC creators failed to deliver
